    Clip from the Fox sitcom “Second Chance” starring Matthew Perry and Kiel Martin. For two brief months in 1987, Fox aired the sitcom where Charles Russell, a recently deceased man, must go back and steer the younger version of himself (Matthew Perry) on a more righteous path, so that he may eventually be admitted to Heaven. But here's the interesting part: the Kiel Martin version of the Russell was depicted (in the above scene) as visiting St. Peter at the gates to the afterlife in the "future" of 2011. Before Martin entered the scene, the theme was introduced through two other visitors: the first was a dim but sweet-natured beauty pageant queen who was inevitably admitted to Heaven. The second, however, was none other than Muammar Gadaffi, gunned down in warfare and sentenced to hell. Could this just be a strange coincidence? How could a simple, corny '80s sitcom predict that Gaddafi would fall from power and die twenty-four years later? It sure is eerie.
