Okay, I wanna do a comparison thread because I seriously don't see this. I was watching a bit of that "We Love the 80s" on VH1 today and they were talking about Rick Astley. Anybody remember him? I think he had 2 big hits in America (Never Gonna Give You Up & Together Forever) and somebody said that Rick looked like Wally Cleaver. I'm sorry, I just don't see that. All of you know how Wally looks, so I'll just find a pic of Rick and post it.

Anybody think he looks like Wally? I just don't think he looks all that much like Tony Dow.

I saw that too, I thought it was pretty funny. No, they don't look exactly alike, but it was supposed to be kinda a joke, because everyone was expecting him to be this big black R&B guy, not this white, clean-cut man. They do sorta have the same kinda hairstyle going.

In fact they called him "Wally Beaver" which I thought was totally weird. And Rick Astley looked nothing like him.

Wally Beaver! I noticed that too!!! LOL Reminds me of my friend trying to think of June's name. "June Weaver? June Beaver? I know its something like that!"

You guys, they were just trying to be funny. Don't take it so seriously!

Yeah, the only thing that really looks the same is the hair style. Whavever happened to Rick? I haven't heard any songs out of him in a long time.

Maybe a little but Wally is a lot cuter. If I remember right that Rick Astley guy had reddish hair. You can't really tell from that pic but I remember seeing his videos when I was a teenager and his hair was a reddish brown.

Lol, well, the only thing that looks the same is there hair! I really don't remember that guy, but I have definitely heard those songs before. I was in diapers or in pre-school in the 80's so I didn't really listen to music on the radio or watch any MTV.
