C.O.P.S. - Bad Guy/Good Guy

All right - so I was supposed to do a slew of good guys from C.O.P.S. but I ran out of look-a-likes (suggestions welcome). So here's a bad guy and a good guy. 

Buttons Mc Boom Boom: I'm sorry - have you ever heard of a better name than Buttons Mc Boom-Boom? Why isn't that my name? A prohibition era moniker is fantastic and Martin Landau (who is about 113 years old) is definitely familiar with the concept of speakeasies (speakeasys?).

Sun-Down: "Down" being the operative word here. Yup. Sundown is twinsies with Freddie Mercury. Deal with it.

C.O.P.S. - Bad Guys Edition - Part I

C.O.P.S. was a great after-school cartoon. There were clearly defined good guys v. bad guys (Ratzinger would approve) and I'm almost positive the voice of City TV does the theme song. A few posts back, I cast Big Boss so I'll move right along to the rest of the crew. 

Rock Krusher: This beefy monster will be played by his human counterpart, football star turned "actor", Vinne Jones. Or as I like to call him, "Scene Krusher". 

Beserko: I had a tough time choosing between Dolph Lundgren and Gary Busey. But as the wiki page insists, Beserko's defining feature is: "his gross incompetence and overall stupidity", so I went with Dolph. 

Miss Demeanor: When my nine year old self figured out her name was a play on "misdemeanor", I was BLOWN AWAY by the cleverness. Wiki describes M.D. as having "an ugly looking face like a witch" (whoa, someone has an issue with strong women) and while I don't think this description is true of Illeana Douglas, there is no denying their twinship.
