> With that wise suggestion, Weathers skyrocketed into the pantheon of the best "actors playing a version of themselves" in 21st century TV history, up there with Larry David in "Curb Your Enthusiasm" and Adam West in "Family Guy."
One that always gets overlooked is Ron Silver playing himself in Heat Vision and Jack. It’s an unaired pilot for a spoof of 80s “man on the run” series like the Incredible Hulk. It starred Jack Black, Owen Wilson, Ron Silver, Christine Taylor, and Vincent Schiavelli, made by Rob Schrab and Dan Harmon, directed by Ben Stiller. Ron Silver is an assassin working for (evil) NASA to hunt down the smartest man on Earth (Jack Black) and his talking motorbike (Owen Wilson). However Ron Silver plays himself – the assassin stars in Hollywood films as a part-time hobby (when he isn’t murdering people).
