Doug Ellin, the (creator/producer/I don't recall) of the show is indeed a fan of APs!
In fact, he has filmed himself on the show in a little known role as a casting director/audition "scout" for Johnny Drama (no clue as to the season) but I distinctly remember him wearing a black Rubberclad at that time!
Dark hair, skinny guy. Look him up online, I'm sure you will likely recognize him!
