Subject: There is a new series coming on "Last Resort". I could picture HAE on this show. In fact I could picture him in alot of quality shows but nothing is happening. I doubt he will ever be the captian or commander of his own series again. To tell you the truth, I thought GCB was a waste of his talent. Sorry, but I need something of more quality from him. Geeze, Admiral Boone has faired so much better!!!! Sorry to be critical but another year without him is torture.

[> Absolutely! Anyone read Jonathan Kellermans Alex Delaware books. I wish we could see a series of movies with DJE as Alex, the way Tom Selleck has done with Jesse Stone. -- Me2, 23:22:47 07/31/12 Tue [1]

[> Right there with you, BT!!! I don't know what happened, but David's career has NOT been what we all thought it would be after JAG. The MOST *mis*used and *under*used actor out there, IMO. -- The Chief (but in my head, he's been cast in some wonderful roles in the books I've read, or ideas I've imagined myself. Doesn't pay the bills for him, but it keeps me hopeful!), 23:44:38 07/31/12 Tue [1]

[> I maybe wrong, but I don't think he's looking for a big role anymore. I think he got burned out on JAG fighting with the Gorilla. I think he wants to work just short days, unless the project is really to his liking. I think thats why he's taking cast roles instead of Main Character roles. Not that I wouldn't love to see him in a main role. I agree there are so many good books, that could be made in to TV series, that he could be the lead character!! -- Cathy F., 10:45:10 08/01/12 Wed [1]

[> My 2 cents is that his wife killed his career right after JAG. Its was like he couldnt do anything withour her in it and some may not have liked that and quit looking at him for roles. That my personal opinion -- DOS, 15:59:24 08/01/12 Wed [1]

[> [> I don't remember this being an issue, DOS. While I support any wife who wants to protect family time, I don't think NC was a detractor. I think part of it was he wanted a break for a while, to spend time with his kids, and hoping not to be typecast so maybe he turned down a few things right after JAG was over. And it could have been that studios were hesitant to cast him because he was too recognizable as Harm and viewers wouldn't picture him as anything else. -- The Chief (just my thoughts), 14:46:36 08/02/12 Thu [1]

[> An actor with a good agent gets auditions. Whether or not an actor books the audition is another thingf entirely. Just because he once had a hit show doesnt mean people are standing in line to give him a role. IMO some bad decisions were made on his part when it came to auditioning for stuff he didnt fit. An actor has a choice what they audition for. Even with the big name agencies. -- TF...my kids auditions always go through me to decide what they will or wont go for., 19:44:27 08/02/12 Thu [1]

[> DOS I don't know if his wife killed his career. But she as hell didn't help it any. I agree with you about her having to be in things he auditioned for. I never could understand how The Gorilla was talked into letting her on JAG. I think DJE made it a point in his contract. Otherwise she would never had been on the show. -- Cathy F. I've met her. Not a pleasant lady., 23:36:33 08/02/12 Thu [1]

[> [> Having Nanci on the first time (Washington Holiday) was probably one of those cute things a producer can promote. Creating "Singer" fit their purpose at the time. Elevating her to continuing character was a compromise imho. (Inside . . .) -- Dancer, 02:44:52 08/04/12 Sat [1]

DJE wanted more money, and you-know-who didn't want to give it to him (as we know).

I've always thought that making Singer a recurring character was DPB's way of giving DJE a raise without changing his contract.

As time went on, it didn't work out that way, but he certainly gave it a try.

[> [> [> I never really saw any point in the Singer role except to get Nanci a job, one that would be "Close to HAE," possibly a way to keep an eye on him. I have a number of thoughts on this issue, but will keep them to myself. -- jenks, 06:51:38 08/06/12 Mon [1]

[> [> Idk when in the series 'Singer' came on board, but, as I understand it, HAE has come across as a dedicated family man, yet he had extremely long hours as he was in almost every scene of the show. inside -- mj, 07:56:21 08/06/12 Mon [1]

So, SOMETHING had to happen, IMO, for him to be able to stay happy and proficient, and that meant getting Nanci, who I thought was a trained actress, a role. It seemed a happy compromise. It probably would have been very hard for her to connect into another show or role while trying to be a Mom and keep up with the demands of living away from 'home', etc. As for her not being 'pleasant' -- well, I'm not so sure I would know how I would be if thousands of women lusted after my DH! lol!

[> I agree w/you on this. DJE just hasn't been in anything that's a keeper and not sure where I read it but your right in that almost everything he was in there had to be a part for Nanci. Look at all the tv movies he's done and she has some part in a lot of them. To me this is totally a buzz kill for anyone looking to hire him IMO anyway! -- Ciara, 10:51:35 08/09/12 Thu [1]

[> Having Nanci included in most everything HAE did immediately following JAG was one of my pet peeves (sp?) and there were several movies, etc., I just didn't watch if NC's name was listed in the cast. -- carramor, 19:45:10 08/27/12 Mon [1]
