Michele 1 #1 January 11, 2007 My father is the absolute bestest pop, and a damned fine actor. He just got word he has been cast in a series slated to air in the spring. The best part is the guy who's producing it - David E. Kelly...who produced: Boston Legal, The Practice, Ally McBeal, Picket Fences, and others. Dad's not starring, but it is recurring, and Dad is happy about everything (meaning billing, colleagues, exposure, et cetera). My Dad - 84, still going strong. I am indeed proud of him. He so rocks. Just thought I'd share the news...considering that there have been recent health scares (and no, we still don't know what was wrong...but he's feeling better now...), I thought I'd share the good news, too.

Michele 1 #3 January 11, 2007 Dunno - as these things go, the project is "Untitled" as of yet. So it's one of the Kelly productions, but I thought it was "Wedding Planner", although I'm not sure of that, either...it's untitled...so who knows. I'm just tickled pink for Pops.

skymama 37 #4 January 11, 2007 It's so nice to hear that he is well enough to work again. Keep us posted for when the show makes it on the air! She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jceman 1 #11 January 11, 2007 That's great to hear, Michele, in all respects. Please let us know any other particualrs as they become available for public consumption. (and give the old gentleman a hug from us, plase) Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them?
