Pentax appearances

I thought I'd start a post about Pentax appearances in various movies, TV series etc...

Here's one from OZ (TV show about life in prison). A journalist is taking pictures at the opening of renewed prison.

I wonder why prehistoric cameras are so popular in tv shows that are happening in the 90's (and later)

That's not prehistoric. That's from the early 70's. I had the manual version of that, the Spotmatic F. As I recall, the ESII was an auto-exposure version, with aperture priority, one of the first, and included open-aperture TTL metering. Not much new on the block is there?
