It's crazy. I just saw him on TV 2 weeks ago. He was hosting a special on The Reelz Channel "Enteartainment Weekly Presents: 1980s TV Stars Where are the Now."

I just saw him on an IRS defense commercial last night. It also runs a lot on the radio.

Dang I didn't know Thicke did TV theme songs too.

His TV son Jeremy Miller competed in "Battle of the Network Stars" and dedicated his performance on the obstacle course to a very special man. He still lost, but it was a nice gesture.
