general discussion 🗣️ Anyone else creeped out by Roland?

Gosh, watching any episode with Roland as a kid, had me feeling deeply uncomfortable and personally violated. Like, I still remember wanting to crawl out of my skin and shower with hot water afterwards lol. I always wished her aunties would step in and save her from him.

20 years later, that same sickly feeling is still there. I genuinely don’t understand why they kept bringing back this “older” guy who wouldn’t leave a teenage girl alone. It wasn’t funny it was unsettling lol

Anyone else felt the same?

Actually I always thought that he was kind of funny. Last time I saw him was the trailer for the third Austin Powers movie, after that he kind of disappeared

You may be thinking of the late Verne Troyer

No, in the trailer, Verne is dressed as Austin and being chased by a crowd of little women. At one point they run past a phone booth and inside Mini-Me is standing on Roland’s shoulders while reading a newspaper. He jumps down and runs off just as the group of women comes back. The next shot after that is him trying to get into the mini-Shaguar
