I chose writing prompt #1..What actors from childhood do you think about?

When I was a kid my favorite actors were:

First and forever there was Michael Landon:
Little Joe Cartwright in Bonanza
Pa-Charles Ingalls in Little House on the Prairie(I soo wanted him to be my daddy)
Jonathan Smith in Highway to Heaven
Then there was Lorne Greene:
Ben Cartwright in Bonanza
Adama in Battlestar Galactica
And of course there was Victor French:
Isaiah Edwards in Little House on the Prairie
Mark Gordon in Highway to Heaven
I can't forget Parker Stevenson:
Frank Hardy in The Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew Mysteries
Craig Pomeroy in Baywatch
Now we get to the man that makes me catch my breathe everytime I hear him speak. The most amazing Sam Elliot:
Gar in Mask
Wade Garrett in Roadhouse
I'm thinking..Wild Bill Hickcock in Buffalo Girls
Virgil Earp in Tombstone
Just to name a few, cause there are soo many more movies he was in that where great.
Ohhhh yeeeaaahhhhhhh!!!!

V 83' vs V 09'

Okay ladies, be careful and don't slip on my drool!

In preparation of the premiere of V, syfy has played the 83' version with Marc Singer.

Most commonly known as "The Beast master"

I knew who Marc Singer was right away, because of Beast master. Love those hunky shows, mostly just for the view.
I must admit I didn't even know the was a older version of V. Am I alone in this?
It was originally a 3 part mini-series, then turned into a show with a couple of more movies to follow later. We got to watch the mini-series version. I sorta liked it but there were too many screw ups in the voice alterations and even in the scenery. BUT..come on..it's MARC SINGER!! As long as you just look at him and let your mind wonder, who cares that the plot is about aliens!

While watching part 2, He was being escorted out of a room by guards and the back pockets of his jeans were much darker then the rest of his jeans.

I asked hubby..Did they tear off his back pockets?
He says..No, why?
Cause that is what it looked like.
Hubby...giving me a raised eyebrow...hmm..you are sooo busted!
What? with mock innocence
You were soo checking out his butt!
I can not deny.
Hubby tried to convince me that he wasn't good looking..by saying..His eyes are too close together! LOLOLOLOL

The new V, aired last night. Did you even watch it or did Biggest Loser win the evening?

They definitely did some changes to the story line and some real cool updated technical effects. I really didn't get into it as much as hubby. I found it sort of confusing as to who the main characters are. If Marc Singer was the stud in the first one, who is the stud now? My only guess is Joel Gretsch.

I know him from "4400"

He is good looking, but is no Marc Singer! His part in the show really didn't impress me. I was expecting him to be in a strong male role, not as a confused priest.

So far I am not inclined to watch it again. I really didn't get drawn into it enough. The question is..Is hubby going to forgo NCIS for V permanently?
I hope not! I don't think I could go long without Mark Harmon!
