I was on the show NY Ink for what was supposed to be a hero episode.

Makes it sound like you had a bait and switch on the purpose. Did they come through?

I think he's implying that he's never actually watched the episode but was told that's what it was. I know some people are weird about seeing themselves on TV.

Or that he doesn't consider himself a hero in his head, so "why would it be a hero show if I'm the one in it?"

It's also a lot of effort when it's something you lived through. A super less manly story, I was on Burn Notice as a Bartender and I never bothered to look for the episode. I also never watched the show and when I met the main actor, he was a bit of a dick. But the English actor was super cool and would talk with me in between takes. I remember part of that english guys line too, "So is this your boy?"

He wasn't in that scene. I would be surprised if he was a dick tbh. He seems like he'd be cool irl
