Since I had never heard or seen Clooney in anything prior to ER, I cannot call that a breakout role, just being a good actor and in the right place at the right time… Acting is cut throat and luck but add talent as Alex’s and he will do fine with or without this new TV series… Sorry, this is how I see it and it is my opinion…

Years ago, & I go back to the beginning of TV in age, that media was where older actors known for being formerly in the movies, came to nest for their final curtain calls in acting… A couple of examples were Robert Young, an debonair actor that started in films in the 1930s, became Father Knows Best & some quarter of a century later Marcus Welby, MD… Bob Cummings a funnyman from the movies brought his humor to TV in the 1950s in his show of his name… Loretta Young began her career in the 1930s and in the 1950s & 60s she swished in her gowns onto our TV sets in her own show… Buddy Epson was a song & dance man in movies & Bway who became our beloved Jed Clampett on the Beverly Hillbillies & then went on to investigate matter in Barney Jones…

So all I am pointing out is that TV is not the “In” to make your brealout in show business, however I must disagree that Moonlight was not Alex’s breakout role for he will always ( no matter what role comes his way) be remembered for his character of Mick St John since he gave it such real life…And the same can be said of such actors as Boris Karloff for Frankenstein & Lon Chaney for the Wolfman or Marie Dressler as Tugboat Annie….

ER was a HUGE hit though and that was Clooney’s breakout role. Moonlight cannot compare to ER and Alex hasn’t had a breakout role yet. Alex’s career still needs supportive fans.. not ones that secretly hope his next role fails.

Yes, Natalie,

I posted a new trivia question just now on the Permalink thread of We Still Believe in Vampires & Moonlight, since that is my own thread I wrote and is dedicated to those who do want, have wanted, a completion to the ML storyline…

I noticed you did post there tonight… please understand well aware of the emotions…but that thread was created for the sole purpose to secure a Moonlight movie… We love everything Alex has filmed, we all feel like Joel about ML & Alex, but we also know Alex will go on to bigger & better things…That network is not the importance here…

You put up Shelly Long as an example…well I offer George Clooney leaving ER, did him no harm, now did it?

When Josh was kidnapped, Logan had to triangulate his position. Beth provided the number to Mick, who provided it to Logan.

Well, I gather here that everyone did, indeed, “Seize the Day” in Trivia…

Okay, 1 more, am posting now as my eyes grow heavy & need sleep… 5:-5:30AM rolls around very quickly & my horses do not understand, nor care, that is it Sunday morning…

And now for Sunday’s AM’s trivia teaser,what I want to know is:

Actually Alex was basically only in NYC, at the most, overnight, if that… He just flew in for the CBS Event & needed to return immediately back to LA, a reliable source informed me…

And, just letting you know that wubbywubby Melinda, posted some great news that there is going to be a 1st Vampire Gala in LA in August…praying Alex is there in full Mick garb… I asked her, as she posted on the Whiteout Trailer to post this on the “We Still Believe in Vampires & Moonlight” thread over at the Permalinks…and do hope she will keep us updated or that someone here also learns some more info on this…

AND, Joel Silver got my letter, got the green card yesterday that it was received and signed for… So we are doing something right, I feel…

Have you read Alex’s Blog? His last update was May 2, 2009, but I am waiting until after he wraps up the movie The Back-Up Plan with Jennifer Lopez to perhaps receive a blog update from him. He may be very business, for he probably has to start filming CBS Three Rivers soon after he wraps with Jennifer Lopez.

Hey Betty, I am also in my 70’s and I have a serious crush on Alex. My family all tease me about him because I have so many pictures of him. I can sit at my computer all day and look at pictures or watch Moonlight and I also have everything else he has been in except two Australian tv shows which I can’t seem to get hold of. I keep telling my family I am not dead yet and he is a “safe” crush as I have never met him nor will I get the chance. I have been to California twice and missed him and even drove to Pennsylvania to try and catch him. We saw the hospital where they were shooting but the day we were there it was pouring rain.

I do have an autographed picture of him that he personally autographed to me and I was so excited to get it. Next to Moonlight I love The Incredible Journey of Mary Bryant in which he really stole the movie. He was so incredibly handsome and the love scene between him and Mary on the night they were married was the sexist, sweetest, loving, tenderest love scene I have ever seen. I just loved it. And I loved his hair in that one. He can do no wrong as far as I am concerned. I just would like to hold him and protect him from being hurt and comfort him when he needed to be comforted. Oh to be 40 years younger. My husband died 20 years ago and I have never dated as I had no desire to but for Alex I certainly would make an exception. Not that that would ever happen but it is nice to fantasize.

Now that there is a more definitive direction for Alex and his career, with “Three Rivers” getting a chance and a new movie coming out, maybe he can calm down a little, and not have so much stress in his life. Think about the pressure he’s been under this past year. No wonder he’s lost weight. Too many things going on at one time, all out of his control – that can take a toll on anyone. We just seem to notice it more because we are all concerned about our favorite guy, Alex. With our help and support, he’ll be back to his old self in no time.
