Beers and Weirs, older party guest


Just watched Beers and Weirs for the first time in years, and in the party scene, the old guy who starts a fight with Serh Rogen looks very familiar. I have searched IMDB and several other sites and can not figure out what I know him from....any help?

He was briefly in a scene in Superbad. As I recall he stole some liquor on a bus....

Yeah, he was the bum that the cops go to the bar to arrest and they think McLovin took him out in the kitchen. Later, he sees McLovin on the bus and gets in a fight with Seth. That's where I recognized him from.

I looked up the Beers & Weirs episode. His name is Clement Blake. he was also in The Artist and Magnolia. Sadly he died in 2012.

Thank you. I looked right at his picture and could not figure it out . Chances are I recognize him from Firefly, Walk Hard, or Malcolm in the Middle.

Trivia.... the song clip "Clem's Theme" on the soundtrack CD of Freak and Geeks is named for him. His character's name was Carl, but for some reason the song is named for him personally.

I could have sworn I saw Clement Blake is a Weird Al Yankovic video, but it isn't listed in his credits. Please click on
