Line 54:
* ''[[Reilly, Ace of Spies]]'': Sidney Reilly. Considering that Reilly, a man shrouded in mystery, was possibly a [[Real Life]] inspiration for Bond, this makes it a bit of [[Truth in Television]]. Consider also that he was played by Sam Neill, who was screen-tested for the role of [[James Bond (film)|James Bond]] in ''[[The Living Daylights]]''.
* Played with a lot in ''[[Chuck]]''. Chuck Bartowski is the furthest thing from James Bond you can find. But he still tries, because he's [[Functional Genre Savvy]]. When he evolves from [[The Woobie]] to [[Iron Woobie]], he makes it work. In fact, because he's so successful (thanks to Casey, Sarah and the Intersect) that the default name he uses when he goes on a mission becomes feared by the enemy agents as a Bond-esque Tuxedo super-spy.
* ''[[Myth BustersMythBusters]]'' tested out if you could wear a tuxedo under a dry suit to crash a party on a yacht. After swimming underwater for half a mile, Jaime came up out of the water, stripped off the dry suit, and was able to attend the party in a perfectly presentable tux.
