Oscar Goldman:When I was in high school, while the show was playing, my closest friend remarked how cool it would be to have the capabilities of Steve Austin. I told him I'd rather be Oscar Goldman, to control all those big-money projects. From then on, "Oscar" was his nickname for me. I'm not sure his parents ever knew it wasn't my real name.

Quote:In the Judd Apatow film “The 40 Year Old Virgin” (2005), friends of a character played by Steve Carell mock him for owning a Goldman action figure, still in its original packaging, rather than Steve Austin’s.
“That’s worth a lot of money,” Mr. Carell protested. “That’s much more valuable than Steve Austin.”
