Susan thought we were having so much fun with the 60's guys, we should comment on the current crop.

This is great, Terry! It's fun to see which women men think are the female
equivalents of CF drool-wise.
Two of my current favorites are Edmund Grey on All My Children (John
Callahan, as I was so kindly informed by another fan here) and William
Shockley (Hank on Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman). I know the latter is not a
conventional droolee, but there's something about him that really appeals to
me. And he does generally do the right thing in the end, even though he may
act like a jerk for awhile first.

I was watching Keeping Up Appearances last night. The actor who played vicar would have me in church every Sunday morning. Jeremy Critten (I think) is his name.

Mandy Patinkin?
~Cheryl
Mon, Feb 10, 1997 (18:00)
#13
Amy, I've always had a thing for Mandy Patinkin, myself! (I'm sure that comes as a surprise to you!) He is not really handsome, but there is an intensity about him that is very appealing. I miss Jeffery Geiger on Chicago Hope and love it when he makes an occasiaional appearance (as he did last week!)
I really liked him in Yentl and in Sunday in the Park with George, but all time fave performance has to be in The Princess Bride!
"Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die."

Ok. I'm going to go out on a limb here and confess an attraction that I find slightly embarrassing...Malcom Gets, the man who plays Richard the tortured artist on Caroline in the City. I know, it's a pretty lame show, but I watch it just to see if Richard will ever get around to confessing his love for Caroline! There. Despise me if you dare! ;-)
~Saman
Mon, Feb 10, 1997 (19:04)
#15
Cheryl - indeed I dare not despise you (yeah, I persist in watching Caroline in the City too ;). I love Richard's neurotic behaviour (and therefore Malcolm Gets for portraying him so well). Maybe it's just because he stands out in an otherwise ordinary cast.
The rumour is that something major is going to happen in the Richard-Caroline business in the Valentine's Day ep (funnily enough!)

Cheryl-You are not alone. I too feel a slight attraction for Malcom Gets/Richard. He is the only reason I watch that show. I love his witty, satiricial sense of humor. Very endearing in a man! My all time favorite Richard show has to be the one where he and Caroline dance together, only her jerk/doctor boyfriend shows up. End shot-Richard wandering the streets of NYC, alone. Sigh.

Cheryl, thanks for mentioning The Princess Bride!
My favorite book in high school, read five or six, had to buy it 2 or 3 times because I gave it to friends and Never, Ever got it back.
Also my favorite line: "Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die."
Also liked Cary Elwes, very debonair, don't you think. "Come sir, we are both men of action. Lying ill becomes us." And that mustache! Loved It.

Both the movie and the book have always been among my favorites, too.
Jimmy Smits: he can defend or interrogate me at any time!
Yes, and Dennis Franz is also very sexy. His struggle this last season has had
me and a co-worker discussing his every move, and finding him well worth the
conversation.

Wow, Cheryl and I actually like the same person even if it isn't RG. Anyway. I LOVE Mandy Patinkin and saw him on Broadway when he played Che in EVITA with Patti Lupone. He has the most wonderful singing voice.
Malcolm Gets, is very sexy. I love his pining after Caroline, so sweet. He has a wonderful sardonic humour.
Matthew Perry has always done it for me. Ever since he played Carol's boyfriend in Growing Pains, the one who dies.
And last but not least DAVID DUCHOVNY. As Lizzy says "Beautiful".

Well, as long as we're drooling over Malcolm Gets, have you seen one of the episodes where he has his shirt off? I thought he was intellectually attractive until I saw a shirtless episode and went YOW!!

OOH Kaff-wasn't that the episode with Sharon Lawrence? I love Richard-glasses, no glasses-shirtless. I love his sarcasm best. Favorite line: (his retort to the ever cheerful Carloline's What did you do for New Years question)I rode down fifth avenue with Scott and Zelda drinking champagne out of her slipper.
Ditto on Duchovny. Although I like Mulder better. I've been disapointed with the quality of the shows this year. Tuned in last week though and was hooked-DD in his leather jacket and black turtleneck, comforting Scully.
Don't think I'm crazy but I also find Skinner sexy. I guess its the bald head-great chest!

Since we are on the drool subject I have to add that Dean Cain can wear those blue tights and rescue me anytime!

Susan, I liked Dr. Quinn when it first started, and yes, I thought Joe Lando very hunky looking. This year, though, I haven't been watching it as much--I found the stories somewhat repetitive after a while. I really like the Indian, Dancing Cloud(?).
~Susan

I know he's not a TV star, but I saw the promo for "The Saint" this weekend - Val Kilmer is as gorgeous as ever. I think he is the only blonde that I am crazy about. Well, maybe its actually that body ;). I didn't see a category for him, but I wanted to mention it anyhow. Can't wait for the movie to open next week!!

No, I must admit Robert Redford never did it for me. I even watched out of Africa again last night to try to see what I'm missing. I just don't see it. And when I saw "A River Runs Through It", I was amazed at how much Brad Pitt was photographed to look like a young Robert Redford. Wonder if it was done purposely or not? :)

Hi there. Hey, I tried but couldn't start a topic for us Malcolm Gets lovers. My question was/is: what are your ideas for making Caroline in the City a better show? How would you change/develop the characters? Just what is it that makes the show (except the character of Richard) so painfully bad?
Any ideas? I'd love to hear about some intelligent writing for that show! It bugs me to watch it, but I'm hooked on Gets!
~Alicia
Mon, Oct 20, 1997 (06:28)
#70
Helloooooooo?????
This is the second time that I've posted in a topic that's been dead for ages. The first was the Malcom Gets topic.
THE current tv cutie is Paul Gross. I feel like I'm the only one who knows he's alive. He's in "Due South." CBS cancelled that show TWICE and now it's back again but in syndication.
I swear I am in LOVE with him. He is definitely the sexiest guy on television.
I love that red uniform he wears with the hat. Every time I see him wearing it my heart goes pitter-patter. Red is such a suggestive color. I guess that is why it looks so great on him.
Someone mentioned the guy on Christy. I loved that show and CBS yanks it out! I was sooooo mad when it got cancelled. That guy is so fine! Where is he now?
Also I was very vexed when CBS pulled the plug on Northern Exposure. I really liked the actor who played Chris. He has a very sexy voice.
Also, Remember WENN was mentioned here before. That is my favorite show in the world. Hugh O'Gorman is cute and so is Kevin O'Rourke. BTW, where's Victor???
They should put him on more often.
This is it for now. I hope I'm not just talking to myself!

:-)
~Alicia
Wed, Oct 22, 1997 (00:59)
#74
No! (I think)
I never watched an episode of Starksy & Hutch.
Paul Gross was in Ted Maupin's Tales of the City, a CBS movie "20,000 Leagues under the Sea," in a Canadian series called "Chasing Rainbows," and currently plays a mountie in "Due South."
He kind of reminds me of Colin Firth but w/o the accent.
I knew nobody would know him! He's so obscure but he's amazing looking IMHO.
Alicia, almost exasperated.
~terry
Wed, Oct 22, 1997 (06:11)
#75
Hey, now I saw Tales of the City and *recorded it* it I liked it so well. What
role was he in that program? It is one of the few tapes that I may actually look
at again someday. It was good!
~Alicia
Wed, Oct 22, 1997 (06:20)
#76
Boo-hoo. Unfortunately I did not see Tales of the City. I just know that Paul Gross is in it. I'm waiting for the re-runs on PBS or maybe I can get tapes of it. I'm literally drooling as I think about him. If you want to see who Paul actually is, watch "Due South" on CBS Sundays at 2pm. That's when it airs in Southern California. You're going to have to check your local listings if you want to see it. He's the mountie in the red uniform. I wish I had a scanner!
Alicia, drooling so much that I need a bucket.

This may be way off the subject, but I would like to know if
anyone has heard of the upcoming tv show called 'Tenant of Wildfield
Hall' and pardon me if I mispelled this. Has anyone heard of this
book?
~Alicia
Thu, Oct 23, 1997 (06:24)
#79
I know "Tenant of Wildfell Hall." It's going to be on Masterpiece theatre on October 26. And it's a book by Anne Bronte. I think Rupert Graves is in it.
Does this help, Terry?
~terry

It helps immensely. I'll be looking forward to this show as I'm certain
many of those in this conference will also.
~Alicia
Sun, Oct 26, 1997 (07:05)
#81
Thanks so much Lorie. I can't wait until I get the TV guide issue!
Another TV person that I enjoy watching is David Hyde Pierce in Frasier.
He is so adorably funny.
I'm eagerly awaiting tomorrow night's MT's The Tenant of Wildfell Hall. Rupert Graves! BTW, I missed him today. Maurice was on E! tonight but I completely missed it.
Cheerio!

~LorieS
Mon, Oct 27, 1997 (21:20)
#82
Now that you've seen Tenant, are you happy that they added a bit of sexiness to Huntington? I didn't quite understand where that came from (Gilbert's imagination, no doubt, since Helen probably wouldn't have given him a diary with sexual descriptions of Arthur's prowess!), but I thought they explained his character a bit more, given the short time frame.
Anyway, I expect all the RG droolers will have enjoyed it!
~Alicia
Tue, Oct 28, 1997 (07:00)
#83
I taped Tenant, but I haven't seen it yet. I still have a ton of movies that I taped lined up for my viewing. But I saw a little interview w/ RG regarding the film and he looked mighty fine.
I feel so relieved! for 24 hours I couldn't get on-line because something must have been wrong with the modem or something. I thought I was going to die.
But anyway, now that I'm here, I'm OKAY.
Yesteraday, I saw yet another episode of DUE SOUTH with PAUL GROSS, of course. It was an pretty good episode. The thing that got on my nerves is that he was temporarily paired with this rugged type woman that didn't seem to suit him at all. They had no chemistry. For one thing, she looked old enough to be his mother! He and this other girl on the show (the actress' name is Camilla Scott, don't know the character's name) have wonderful chemistry. The lady is his boss and she is definitely bossy to him. She
is attracted to him, but she is in denial. But anyway, Paul Gross... (sigh)
Has it ever been documented that a person could die of dehydration due to excessive drooling?
NOW, MALCOM GETS (finally)
Today's episode of CITC was a repeat. I like this episode. It's pretty funny compared to the other episodes. Another episode that I really like is when Richard adopts Annie's mother as his own and Annie gets jealous. Richard and Annie are always bickering at each other. IMHO, I think MG and Amy Pietz have more chemistry than MG and Lea T.

(Alicia) IMHO, I think MG and Amy Pietz have more chemistry than MG and Lea T.
Oh, definitely. That show is really cast all wrong--LT must be good for something, but she's not leading lady material to me.
The episode you mention with Richard calling Annie's mom "Mom" was very good, and made me want to see more of the two of them without Caroline in the middle. Of course, anything to see more of MG!
In Chicago, Due South is being shown on Sunday afternoons or something like that -- I imagine in re-runs, tho the show doesn't seem old enough to be doing that.
No, I still haven't caught any recent episodes (sorry), just have fuzzy memories of some I saw several years ago.
Gosh, I guess if my memories are that fuzzy, the show has been on long enough to be showing reruns in syndication.
~Alicia
Wed, Oct 29, 1997 (03:50)
#85
I don't think the Due South episodes on Sundays are re-runs. Here in S. California, it airs on Sunday afternoons also. Or maybe I just have it all wrong.
Yesterday, I did a search on Paul Gross on Yahoo and I found the official website for Due South. The show seems to be very popular in Canada (after all it is a canadian show!) He's won a Gemini Award for Best Actor. I also found out that he's quite multi-talented. He sings (album just released), he acts, and he is a writer! Also he's an executive producer. He's older than I thought, a lot older than I thought: 38!
I wish I was in Chicago. Due South takes place in Chicago and it is close to Canada. But I don't think the show does much taping in Chicago. I think they mostly film in Toronto.
sigh,
Alicia

Alicia:
Great! I'm glad you liked the blurb. Now, now, about that age thing--yes, I thought he was younger, too, but since I'm 39, 38 isn't THAT old!:-o Is it?:-(
Maybe it's just something about Mounties. I saw some tv show last night (a Hallowe'en episode) with someone I've never thought twice about. But in a Mountie suit woo-woo!
It's great to discover new things to love about someone. Let me know if the album is any good.

38 isn't that old. I was just surprised that he was that age because I always imagined he was twentysomething. Heck! I like Peter O'Toole and he's in his seventies I think.
About the album: I'm going to Tower Records this weekend to get it. If it's not there I'm ordering it. I've heard him sing before in an episode and he's not bad at all.

TENANT OF WILDFELL HALL
(Lorie)Now that you've seen Tenant, are you happy that they added a bit of sexiness to Huntington? I didn't quite understand where that came from (Gilbert's imagination, no doubt, since Helen probably wouldn't have given him a diary with sexual descriptions of Arthur's prowess!), but I thought they explained his character a bit more, given the short time frame.
I finally saw Tenant. Yes, Huntington was definitely sexy. RG was so different from what I saw of him in "A Room with a View."
I liked Toby Stephens also. I know I've seen him somewhere else before.
I thought the mix-up about Lawrence being the brother/lover was hilarious.

REMEMBER WENN
I missed it tonight. I'm so mad. I volunteer for the L.A. Phillharmonic and tonight I was in a hurry to get to the Dorothy Chandler Pavillion that I completely forgot to set the timer. I'll have to wait until Wednesday.

Do you mean is Remember WENN on Wednesday again on PBS? or Tenat?
Well Tenant was repeated today at 1pm on PBS.
Remember WENN is repeated on Wednesday 6pm PST on American Movie Classics.
I taped MT's "The Moonstone" tonight. Greg Wise is in it. He was Willoughby in ET's S&S. The funny thing is that Moonstone is on the same time Greg Wise's other movie, "House of Frankenstein 1997" on NBC.
Did anybody watch "Cinderella" tonight? I though it was very cute.
Alicia
p.s. I did a search on WENN on Yahoo! and it has several webpages. I explored a couple and they all seem to be well done. There's even a weekly chat on IRC.

Alicia,
I have a Canadian friend who is also gaga over Paul Gross.
I also thought Cinderella was great. I liked the way they used diversity in the actors.
Tenant was very good. I thought all the actors did well.
I didn't like The Moonstone much. It seemed a little disjointed to me, and it was hard for me to get involved with the characters. I liked the inspector the best.
Any DQ fans here at all? William Shockley is gorgeous, but Joe Lando ain't too bad neither. ;-)

Hi Susan!
Wow, we finally have someone else here.
PAUL GROSS (due South)
(Susan)I have a Canadian friend who is also gaga over Paul Gross.
So far I've never met anyone in flesh who likes Paul Gross. I've only met fellow duesers on the 'net.
This sunday's episode was a a little disappointing. The lighting was so dark. I could barely see his face! But he did have his red serge off for a scene and got to see him in a v-neck t-shirt that he wears underneath. So far, in this season, he's been in his civilian clothes in only one episode.
DQ
I haven't seen DQ for ages. I stopped after it got too popular and the show was evolving so much that I couldn't keep up.
I'll have to check it out and see who William Shockley is.
The Moonstone
So it wasn't that great, eh? I still haven't watched it yet. What's on MT next week?

Hi! Didn't drop off the planet, just away for a few days having central heating installed in my home (which here in the Midwest is about 1 month too late).
Didn't see The Moonstone either, but I read the book years ago and found it very complex. At the time I was a big mystery fan, and that is one of those "firsts" that everyone mentions. So I plowed through it, but didn't enjoy it much. Maybe I was too young, tho. Anyway, I'm going to try to catch the TV version when it's re-shown.
Remember WENN was good, though not as good as I'd hoped from the previews. Maybe I'm just getting too critical, but re-working "Casablanca" into WENN terms should have been better. After all, you're working off a wonderful classic. Maybe I'm just not sarcastic enough about the original myself.

Alicia, I haven't seen Due South myself, although the pictures of him are great!
William Shockley on DQ is Hank, the barkeep -- a jerk but what a gorgeous jerk! That bod should be patented.
I also meant to comment on your comment re Chris-in-the-Morning on Northern Exposure (John Corbett). I am currently watching this in reruns on A&E, and yes, I have always loved him and his silky-soft, philosophic voice.
Ah, so many men, so little time! ;-)

(Susan)Ah, so many men, so little time! ;-)
I couldn't agree more. Right now I'm trying to divide my time between Paul Gross, Colin Firth, among others. Aaaaah, I'm losing sleep. I'm a walking zombie these days. Too much time in cyberspace and not enought on Earth. Well, I can never get enough of the 'net so it's never too much.
I MISSED IT AGAIN!!!!!!!!
Someone shoot me and put me out of my misery. I missed WENN. I was looking so forward to watching it. But Lorie, I'm sad to hear that you were disappointed.
I was so occupied with the PG poster I got in the mail today that I completely forgot all about it.
So you've been without heating? Did you freeze half to death before? I mean after all you live in Chicago! Over here in S. Calif. it's been HOT! 90 degrees in November. I hate it! It feels so unnatural.

Oh, how sad! But there will be re-runs, the season is short!
(Alicia) I was so occupied with the PG poster I got in the mail today that I completely forgot all about it.
Well at least you had a good reason for missing it!

(karol)I would not mind if november in POLand is warm.
Truer words were never spoken, Karol! None of us who live where it's cold would mind warmer weather! Yes, my house was freezing for about a month while we attempted to revive our old furnace (which was the original with our 90-year-old house, converted from coal-burning to gas sometime in the 50's, I think.) A part had rusted out thanks to flooding this summer while we were away on vacation, and they no longer manufacture parts for 90-year-old furnaces!:-O How amazing, right?
Anyway, we took our time looking for a new part rather than biting the bullet and buying a new one quickly. Then there were delays for estimates, etc. So finally I am back in a modern U.S. home with central heating. The only bonus is that we also got central air with this unit, so life should be very comfortable whatever the season. Now we just have to figure out how to pay for it!;-(

You wouldn't like the heat in S. Calif. It's a different kind of heat. It's sticky and smoggy and overall nasty. I don't mind the heat in places like Palm Springs or Phoenix, Az. BUT L.A. heat is the worst. It's oppressing.
I'm just wishing for a cool fall breeze or better yet, a nice spring day.

I used to watch Dr. Quinn just to drool over Joe. But I guess I
grew tired of him. Or something. Dunno. Boy does that sound
dumb! Maybe I just got tired of watching the show itself. He is
very attractive, expecially because of his hair. I wish long hair
on men would come back into fashion. If they only knew how
sexy it is!
My roommate has a passion for another long-haired beauty: Adrian Paul.
Other TV cuties worth mentioning: PO5's Jeremy London. Oh mama, those eyes! :)

I enjoyed him on L&O, too, but wish to see more of him. Where is he? Has he dropped off the face of the earth? Is he on Broadway or at the Burt Reynolds dinner theater in FL?
I'll have to confess that my weakness isn't just for Chris, tho -- I really like almost everyone on L&O (not terribly fond of the new "young" guy, tho).

She is very cute, but kind of awkward in real life, I think. She looked wonderful at the Golden Globes, but didn't appear to realize it herself. But then, confidence isn't necessary for cuteness.
And her character is a hoot. I've only seen it a few times, but it's really a silly show.

The characters are really well developed in Ally McBeal, and there are some
choice "drool" candidates for the women here as well as the men. I like the
other two women lead roles also, even Allies spacey secretary and the lady
who married her ex-boyfriend.

Mr Pertwee certainly made an impact with those eyes.. beautiful eyes indeed! and.. well.. I realised I'd seen him somewhere els, and it's the guy who played Hugh Beringer in the first Brother Cadfael series... rather well I thought? anyone else remember this cutie??

I've recently become hooked on watching The Nanny. I know that Fran Drescher has an annoying voice, but I'll put up with almost anything to watch Charles Shaughnessey (There's something about a British accent)...
I have a series of downloaded photographs that I change in and out as the background for my PC. The list is all British actors, including Colin Firth, Alan Rickman, Jeremy Northam, Charles Shaughnessey

Okay, I know this sounds ridiculous, but I just love Niles on "Frazier" (have gone blank on his name). I keep rooting for him and Daphne to get together, but know that it would actually ruin the show if they did. And, of course, there's David Duchovny on X-Files, who is so sexy, if a bit eccentric.

Griffiths - from the Old Welsh name Grippiud, which became Gruffudd. Modern Welsh is Gruffydd. It was frequented as a name of
Welsh princes and leaders. Old documents show it commonly abbreviated as Gr'. Griffith, Griffin, Griffies, Griffis, Guto,
Gruffydd, Gruffudd.
