American Hero: Reginald VelJohnson

He needs no introduction. Actually, he probably does. He played Carl Winslow on "Family Matters", another great TGIF show.

Here are some highlights from his IMDB profile:

1. Carl Winslow's middle name was "Otis." Thus making his initials COW. So fat.
2. He was paid 100,000 dollars to portray Sgt. Al Powell in "Die Hard." Way too little for that brilliant of a role. He should have told those producers to "start smellin' what they been shovelin'."
3. For his role in "Ghostbusters," he was credited as Reggie VelJohnson. I just can't see him as a Reggie. He's too dignified for that.
4. He played the character of Carl Winslow on an episode of Perfect Strangers. I think he arrested Balky for turning tricks in that one.
5. Remember that episode of "Family Matters" where Carl has to dress as a woman in order to catch a purse-snatcher and he has to learn how to walk like a woman. That was awesome.
6.He's played either a doctor or a police officer in almost his roles. Talk about range, Reggie's got it.
