Can't believe I forgot that one!

Lets not forget about the johnny carson show appearance...can't believe they didn't want him to say higher.  What is with all the damn censorship in the world?

They mentioned Jim in a radio sketch the other day. They were like why can't all poets have a beard, unkempt hair and the surname Morrison. It wasn't very funny.

Does anyone remember the sci-fi show Dark Skies?

There is a whole episode where Jim shows up and he is still in film school and he helps the shows main characters foil some alien plot(its kinda like the x-files but set in the sixties). For the entire episode he is only referred to as Jim but at rhe end the film he is making is shown and the last shot is of Venice Beach and a piece of wood washes up that has Jim Morrison carved into it. Sounds corny but it is actually really cool.

I just watched a movie called 'Flicka' with Tim McGraw in it. Took place in the country ranches out in the midwest somewhere. Funny thing is in the first half hour or so of the movie, one of the main characters was wearing a Doors tee with a HOT pic of Jim! It was pretty cool!

On the TV Series "Cold Case" , i don't remember which episode but, it was an episode where a kid grows to be a serial killer, and he's listening to "Riders On The Storm" on his room. I kinda noticed that in a lot of cases The Doors music are associated with kinda dark characters.

In the movie Dream of an Insomniac they quote Jim from 'Wilderness'...after David says it, Frankie recognizes it and says,  "Morrison, Jim".

I am sure I heard some DOORS tunage in the latest Chevrolet commercial.

I recently bought The Peep Show  on DVD, and already  Jim Morrison has been mentioned twice, and I've only watched about half of the episodes. :-D

On the show "who's line is it anyway" they had to do a song in the style of the doors.

Lol, I couldn't believe it either.

there's also a couple of references on SNL on the "Best Of Adam Sandler" he's doing his character Operan Man and he's telling a story about a dream he had or something and I think it was Norm Macdonald who asks him "who did you meet in hell" and Adam says "Jim Morrison" and also Kristen Wiig had a Doors' shirt on during a sketch.
