Me: *trying to sleep

Brain: If Matthew McConaughey starred in a 70s detective show, it would probably be called "McConaughan".

Me: Stop

Brain: *imagines opening montage* He'd definitely slide across the hood of a car.

Me: Yeah. He would.

Brain: And his chief would scream "MCCONAUGHAN!!!" several times an episode.

Me:

Brain: He'd tell the chief everything is alright, alright, alright.

Me: Sigh. I'll never sleep tonight.

Brain: You know he'd smile and wink.

Brain: Maybe "McConaughnahan" instead. Sounds more 70s
@Aikiwomannc Didn't he already star in True Detective, though?
@Breefolk yep but I'm thinking old school 70s style tv detective/cop show.

@Aikiwomannc

In the 1970s, would #MatthewMcConaughey still be doing #LincolnContinental commercials? Or maybe that would be the car where he would be sliding across the hood.

@AnneTheWriter1 Good question. If his character was a sports car guy, maybe a Chevelle SS, 71 Torino, or GTO. He might still do the Lincoln ad
@Aikiwomannc definitely some horns and a disco beat for theme music
@Aikiwomannc Same weird ass sweater jacket thing that David Soul wore in โ€œStarsky & Hutch.โ€ BONUS OBSERVATION: I saw every episode of that show when it originally aired and I still could not tell you who was who.
@allhailwu With the belt! I hated those sweater jackets. Refused to wear one.
