Fine Tuning

Saw him in the same compacity in old re-run from 'Amazing Stories'

Referred to as a whiz kidd in the episode 'Fine Tuning' fiddling around with some home made transmitter.

Also a small time tech genius in the Wes Craven Horror film called 'deadly Friend' where he has built some robot and salvages the AI chip to revive a girlfriend that had been killed.

Is this any coincidence, the ame character from this series or does this poor fellow keep getting the offered the same television/movie roles until he decides to quit altogether.
