Roland Kickinger plays a young Arnold Schwarzenegger.


Jurgen Prochnow plays Arnold Schwarzenegger in recent times, but comes across looking more like the late Phil Hartman playing such a role. Mariel Hemingway plays Maria Shriver.

"See Arnold Run" actually scores an extremely rare trifecta in the "do not impersonate" category. Never do Arnold -- that's been established. But how about Nora Dunn doing Arianna Huffington -- with a broad ax? (There's your direct "SNL" connection; but, in a freaky twist, Prochnow sort of looks like the late Phil Hartman portraying Schwarzenegger. Creepy.) And lastly, just to cover all the bases, some poor actress who shall go unmentioned is recruited here to play a very young Barbara Walters and mangles it so badly that it's physically painful to watch. As in, rolling on the floor, covering your ears so as not to hear her do Walters' already over-caricatured speech pattern. Arnold. Arianna. Barbara. Do not try this at home.

Sounds like don't-miss TV to me!

I don't understand why they wouldn't have the younger actor, who actually sort of looks like Arnold, play him in every decade and just make him up to look older.

Oh, he does look like Phil Hartman! Actually, he looks like a cross between Phil Hartman and Bill O'Reilly. LOL.

A&E would have done better to have that still photo with the moving mouth and bad accent that appears on Conan O'Brien's show play Arnold.

At least that would have been comically tolerable, instead of painfully unwatchable.

Is he doing Arnold, or Michael Flatley?

The real Arnold was much more well built. That dude is big, but Arnold is the greatest bodybuilder of all time.
