also he occasionally GUEST STARS.. He was also the BIG guy Dennis Blunden on the 80s sitcom "Head of the Class" with Howard Hesseman and later Billy Connelley.. and one of his co-stars... and one of his co-stars, played the TOUGH guy.. became a producer on like "Varisty Blues", "Ready to Rumble" and some other flicks..

yeah.. I know.. I SHOULD have looked it up.. but was feeling lazy.. the rest of that sadly came from memory... but yeah.. every time I see this flick.. I just think "Blunden"!!!

@ tchr88

For the sake and hope in Human intelligence, I'm hoping your post was some kind of attempt at humor?

If not.... Pretend... Just for a sec, that all of the repliers were having fun and being sarcastic and restating the same thing that had all ready been stated... Just as a kind of stupid but kinda funny thing to do... Now I'm betting you got that but I just thought I'd throw it out... Yup... All of the posters read the prior messages.. now.. Read it and try it again...

BTW... Did anyone remember that..... You get it now...

For the love of God, tell us already. I tried to find a cast list for this thread on IMDb, rotten tomatoes, Wikipedia, Bing, Google, etc., and nobody lists the role of "jackass".

And I'm guessing you don't know who played Blunden on Head of the Class. No, really--who was it? I don't know.

I'm guessing that the guy who played Ricky in this movie may have played Dennis Blunden on Head of the Class.

There's an urban legend that claims that if you look into a mirror and say "Dennis Blunden" three times, Howard Hesseman will appear and kill you with his dry wit.

I glanced through them, but I'll admit I was distracted. I was trying to remember who played Dennis Blunden on 'Head of the Class'. Why, did I miss something?

What was his characters name on "Head of the Class"?

If only I had a way to look it up. I'll have to dig out my TV guide stash from the garage.

Edit: Found it!!! Damnit! Its smeared. These things are in mint condition too. Looks like Denise Blundrengenson.

His body language in this film was amazing. He upstages every scene with a body language both subtle and gross. His and Stiers' work in this film is terrific
