If it gets Christopher Atkins a L&O spot, I'd watch and I detest L&O. Sigh.

Can someone explain why Jamie Walters is on the show? I really don't remember him being a teen (or early-mid-twenties) idol. 90210 and a single does not equal "idol". I mean, Leif Garrett or even Bobby Sherman = Teen Idol. Jamie Walters, not so much.

I don't know, I remember thinking he was a hottie when he was on 90210. But I think the term "teen idol" is definitely being used loosely on this show. It would have made more sense for it to be called "Confessions of an 80's/90's Actor"
