Does Anyone Else Remember This Besides Me?

OK, at the risk of sounding incredibly stupid: anyone here remember the silly 80s TV series "Doogie Howser, M.D." starring Neil Patrick Harris as a teenage genius who became a doctor? I haven't seen an episode of "Doogie" in years
but I swear I remember in his bedroom on the show, there was a
poster for the 80s thrash metal band "Rigor Mortis"
on his wall. I always thought that was a rather odd bit of product
placement because Doogie certainly didn't strike me as the thrasher
type. I've mentioned this on a few of the movie & TV boards on IMDB and
I'm constantly being accused of making it up!! Did I imagine this, or can
someone confirm that Doogie did indeed have a Rigor Mortis poster on
his bedroom wall?? If memory serves it was a picture of their first
album cover, which was a long haired skull with a couple of battle axes
behind it. I swear I am not making this up!! I really DO remember
seeing this on the show!!

Anybody?? Anybody?? Please help if you can, just so I can say "HA!" to all the people who think I'm hallucinating...

Yeah, that sounds familiar. Can't swear to it though.

No clue on the poster but I loved the show.

Neal Patrick Harris is a riot in How I Met Your Mother.

It's on YOUTUBE? I should've thought of checking there. Everything is on YouTube! Man, I love that site. I'm off to check it out right now!!

I KNEW I wasn't hallucinating!!!

EDIT: I just went to YouTube and found this clip of the show's opening credit sequence:

If you look close, you can indeed see the Rigor Mortis logo in the background behind some of the news clippings and so forth. (It helps if you blow the screen up to full size)... I am fairly sure that I must've seen the poster un-obscured in the background of an episode at some point... otherwise why would it have stuck with me for all these years?

Meh, no reason, it's just one of those things that comes up in conversation once in a while ... nothing really important but it just nagged @ me for a long time!!

Hah, I love odd little tidbits like that! I thought I was the only one who spotted STRYPER RULES scribbled on a public toilet in one of the scenes from "Night Of The Creeps". Turned out there was a mention on how it ended up there in the Stryper biography book!!

LMBO, I'm glad I'm not the only one that sits around having strange
flashbacks and bizarre thoughts contemplating important topics of this
nature! That's awesome!
