A point of interest for Star Trek fans is the appearance of Armin Shimmerman (Quark in Deep Space Nine) as a French waiter. Ironically Marina Sirtis (Deanna Troi in Star Trek The Next Generation) appeared in a film three years earlier which was also titled "Blind Date".  William Daniels is probably best known as.... the voice of KITT in Knight Rider! The snooty French waiter in the restaurant scene is played by Armin Shimerman, who went to play another food related role as Quark, on Deep Space 9. How is that for typecasting? -Thanks to James HamelinWalter's (Bruce Willis) brother is played by the late SNL comedian Phil Hartman. -Thanks to LisaWhen Bruce Willis takes Kim out the first time, he takes her to a recording studio where a guitarist is playing a song with a very particular technique. The guitar player is Stanley Jordan, one of the legends of jazz guitar, the first player to use both hands on the neck of the guitar while playing: he is a wonderful guitarist. -Thanks to PaoloDoes anyone know that the wedding ceremony was filmed in the back yard of Barron Hilton's mansion in Holmby Hills. Barron Hilton is Paris' grandfather, who recently dis-inherited her for her bad behavior. Probably cost her about $60 Million. He said she had "sullied" the family name. A picture of the swimming pool from the movie can be seen on the cover of Architectural Digest, Oct. 2007 issue. I know this all to be true, because I spent a summer in the house when I was 18 years old... just before Barron bought it. William Daniels was also the principal next door on the TV sitcom "Boy Meets World". -Thanks to intothesea13The backyard pool/poolhouse used in the wedding scenes when Nadia is to marry David looks like they were the same ones used in the music video for The Cars song, "Magic". -Thanks to intothesea13« Click here to add some Blind Date trivia Rediscover your favorites!
