Did anyone watch Memphis Beat - the show on TNT starring Jason Lee?

On Tuesday, one of the characters was a Parrothead.
He was always seen drinking Margaritas, had a parrot, a tropical shirt, and an account named "Pencil Thin Mustache".

The comment was made that it was a Jimmy Buffett song and the guy must be a Parrothead.

They did it up very well and made me laugh.

And the name of his boat was "MARGARITAVILLE".
Parrots all over his house. So funny, and I'm glad he wasn't the killer !
I love that show, if not just to see if I recognize where in Memphis they are shooting.
Jason Lee has the Southern cop thing down, and he can sing good !

I've posted this before, I think Jason Lee looks a lot like young Jimmy.

We watch Memphis Beat, a show I want to like. I feel like the show is struggling a bit, probably on the bubble for getting dropped, but I am looking forward to seeing the season finale and the parrothead angle.

Fins Up!
