Counting Down to ‘Hawaii Five-0′ at the SD Comic-Con

July 21, 2010 By 1 Comment

This Friday the Hawaii Five-0 panel kicks off its Comic-Con session at 10:15 am in room 6BCF. According to reports, CBS is intensifying its presence in San Diego this year (where over 125,000 TV fans are expected at the Convention Center) and not in the least with its first convention floor booth. Other panels representing the #1 network are CSI and Big Bang Theory.

James Hibberd’s blog lists the Hawaii Five-0 panel among the must-sees because, “Can a CBS crime drama nobody’s seen yet pull off a Comic-Con event? Will convention-goers embrace or shun? CBS figures fans will fill the room for the geek-auspices of the cast and producers and, hopefully, walk away impressed by its action-heavy trailer for the show (“‘Lost’ castaway found! ‘Battlestar’ Cylon becomes human! Star Trek writers return from space!” touts the panel’s ad copy).”

Alex Kurtzman, one of the show’s creators, believes what justifies Hawaii Five-0‘s presence at the traditionally “nerdy and culty” event, “is that it literally is created by an amazing melting pool of geeks — between us and Peter Lenkov, who wrote R.I.P.D. [comics], Len Wiseman, who directed and produced the Underworld movies, [stars] Grace Park  and Daniel Dae Kim, whose credits speak for themselves.”

An opinion shared by President of the CBS Marketing Group, George Schweitzer, who told the LA Times, “Fans want to keep up with the people they love from television and movies and they want to know the next big thing they’re doing.”

Although Alex O’Loughlin himself is not scheduled to make an appearance in San Diego, TV Guide expects that the Aussie’s “legions of Moonlight fans are sure to fill the room for Friday morning’s Five-0 sneak peak”.

Hawaii Five-0 Updates

  • Both HitFix and Buddy TV have a poll going for the fall show we’re most excited about, so please head over to both sites and vote for Hawaii Five-0! The HitFix poll is on their home page, in the far right column.
  • Collider posted a video interview with Alex Kurtzman and Bob Orci recently at the 2010 Saturn Awards. They discuss Hawaii Five-0 at 5:50, when the EPs talk about whether the show will have any mythology or whether the episodes will be standalone:

    Kurtzman: “There will be some mythology, it will be a standalone show. So you will be able to drop into the show at any time. We start prepping in a week and a half, we start shooting in three weeks. It’s been pretty amazing breaking script with them. It feels great.”

    Orci: “You’ve got to know how to do a show with a larger world view; it’s only how fast it reveals itself.”

  • If you don’t mind the entire plot of the Hawaii Five-0 pilot being revealed to you before it airs, head over to Mike Quigley’s site where he shares a blow-by-blow of the pilot screener. Keep in mind that Mike and the majority of his site visitors are die-hard fans of the original show when you read his post and take it from me that the screener version is absolutely riveting. The pilot views like a fast-paced, adrenaline-pumping, action-packed movie even on a computer monitor. And a word of warning, ladies: be prepared to fall head-over-heels in love with Lt.Cmdr. Stephen J. McGarrett and his  team.


Hawaii Five-0 Articles & Buzz

  • It’s never before occurred to me that Alex O’Loughlin could be considered a cult icon, because he is so much more than just Mick St. John (with all due respect to that wonderful character), but then it’s all a matter of perspective. To hear John Kubicek at Buddy TV call him that is kind of strange and pretty cool :

    Remakes are almost always bad, so why should this one be any different? Just look at the cast: Moonlight‘s Alex O’Loughlin, Battlestar Galactica‘s Grace Park and Lost‘s Daniel Dae Kim. It’s like the casting director was replaced by a random nerd from Comic-Con, which is great for me. Getting three established TV cult icons on one show is definitely a promising sign.

  • Sidereel:

    Why Watch? It promises to bring the nostalgia of a revived old favorite (which worked great for 90210, not so great for Melrose Place (2009)), and the excitement of an amped-up modern cop show, while also managing to throw in plenty of shirtless scenes for those who are just in it for the beach bodies (we don’t judge).

  • From Ben Wood, a columnist at the Honolulu Star Advertiser:

    CBS will air its “Hawaii Five-0″ remake in the fall, a very mod version with Alex O’Loughlin as Steve McGarrett and Scott Caan as Danno Williams. I knew Jack well enough for him to come to a couple of parties at my residence, and when I first saw clips of the new McGarrett and Danno, unshaven and wearing wrinkled, rugged street attire, the first thing I thought was, “Straight-laced Jack must be turning over in his grave.” He always wore a suit and looked sharp, as did other members of his “Five-0″ team. Years ago when “Five-0″ was on the air, I was in London, and the show’s theme was played during the changing of the guard at Buckingham Palace. After the ceremony I caught a cab, and when the driver found out I was from Hawaii, he asked whether I knew Jack Lord. When I said yes, he said, “Tell him to get a British tailor.” I told Jack the story, and he gave me a wry smile. Jack didn’t care for criticism. Anyway, no matter what the actors wear, the new “Five-0″ looks as if it is going to be a fast-paced, explosive, action-packed show. I hope it will be a winner, even if there’s a nude scene. Forgive me, Jack …

  • Entertainment journalist Bryan Reesman considers Hawaii Five-0 a guilty pleasure:

    I shouldn’t like this show — especially as remakes and reboots usually annoy me — but I do. Original series star Jack Lord may be rolling over in his grave as I admit that. (He might even be screaming from beyond, “Book ‘em, Danno!” to my confession of this guilty pleasure.) Yet while other upcoming cop shows this fall are going for a grittier look at the world of law enforcement — ABC’s Detroit 1-8-7 and CBS’ Blue Bloods, specifically — CBS’ reimagined Hawaii Five-O is over-the-top, super adrenalized…and a lot of fun.

    Having a cast that includes Alex O’Loughlin (Moonlight), Scott Caan (the Oceans Eleven movies), Daniel Dae Kim (Lost) and Grace Park (Battlestar Galactica) — helps sell this one. In fact, it is their likability and interplay that makes this so pleasurable to watch. And O’Loughlin (the new Steve McGarrett) doing many of his own stunts is impressive, too.

    Take a sneak peek at the trailer below and see for yourself. I’ve seen a “rough cut” of the pilot — brash Iron Man-style opening and all — and it’s slick, smart, high octane entertainment. We’ll see where it goes from there. I expect big ratings at the outset. It will hopefully debut in September.

  • BuzzSugar is also catching up (get in line, lady… :smile: ):

    Why it caught my attention: Reboots are always buzz-y, so I’ll be watching to see if this one can live up to the hype. And there’s also the fact that Alex O’Loughlin takes his shirt off in the preview. I might be in love.

    Show most likely to: Have the best visual backdrop and gorgeous scenery.

  • From a Dearborn, Michigan newspaper, the Times-Herald:

    Q: Will James MacArthur, who played Danno in the original “Hawaii Five-0,” have any part in the new show? — Jim S., Punta Gorda, Fla.

    A: Mr. MacArthur is relishing his retirement, playing golf and tennis, doing a little traveling and enjoying spending time with his family. He divides his time between his homes in Southern California and Hawaii. Currently, there are no plans for his participation in the new “Hawaii Five-0.” When I contacted him recently, he told me: “I wish the new team much success and look forward to seeing what they’ll do with the franchise.”


The Back-up Plan Updates

  • There’s a cute DVD release date countdown widget that you can post on your site, Facebook, MySpace or Twitter page at Widgetbox.
  • The latest box office totals according to Box Office Mojo: $37.1M (US) + $33.3M (overseas) = $70.4M.


Miscellaneous Updates


Gallery Updates

  • Thanks to a film and TV critic from the Dominican Republic, Francisco Maldonado, we have a picture of Alex taken at the LA Screenings on May 22nd!
  • An HQ version of the Blu-ray cover for The Back-up Plan has been added.
  • The small version of the Brazilian poster of The Back-up Plan has now been replaced with a larger one. If you’d like an even bigger version (4.4Mb), let me know.
  • I’ve replaced some MQs and added more HQs from the April 2008 Moonlight event at the Paley Center. You’ll find them on the third page of the Paley album.


Have an excellent week and stay safe!

AOLR Weekly Wrap-Up #47

June 20, 2010 By 5 Comments

Hawaii Five-0 updates:

  • Tim Ryan blogs that the Waikiki Marriott will be the temporary HQ for the Hawaii Five-0 production. (As you know, after Lost wrapped ABC continued to rent the Hawaii Film Studio for its new series Off the Map.) He also adds that Rachel Sutton is now H50′s Hawaii casting director – she held the same position on Lost.
  • The Show Girl added another snippet from a previous phone interview with Daniel Dae Kim to a recent video.



Hawaii Five-0 articles & buzz:

  • Jean Smart recently had a long interview with Bullz-Eye and a small mention was made of Hawaii Five-0:

    BE: Well, I’m sure we’re coming up against the wall here, but…I know you’re in the pilot for “Hawaii Five 0,” but are you anticipating being a regular on the show?

    JS: No, I can’t be a regular, because I’d have to move to Honolulu. (Laughs) But I’m going to be doing a recurring role, yes.

    BE: Were you a fan of the original series?

    JS: Oh, sure. Who wasn’t? Absolutely.

  • Neely Swanson, (former?) SVP at (David) Kelley Productions and teacher for the USC School of Cinematic Arts’s film and TV writing program posted an interview with former Moonlight executive producer Chip Johannessen. Swanson is apparently not convinced that Alex has been cast correctly as McGarrett, but Johannessen has only good things to say about him.

    Chip: In defense of “Hawaii 5-0,” anything with Alex O’Loughlin is worth trying. I worked with him on “Moonlight” and he’s pretty great.

    Neely: I guess CBS is hoping this will fall into the category of “the third time is a charm.” I must say, though, and I did say it in an article I wrote for Baseline Studio System, I liked the pilot script of “Hawaii 5-0” and I’m actually looking forward to seeing that pilot. It’s a very expensive, but really good action piece. On paper it works and if CBS doesn’t spare the expense it will work on screen. My impression of Alex O’Loughlin is that he’s a heart throb and may be too soft to play Steve McGarrett. It might have been better (and they would never have considered this for any one of a number of reasons) to cast Scott Caan as Steve and Alex as Danny. I could very well be wrong.

    Chip: Yeah, they wouldn’t do that. But honestly, I love Alex O’Loughlin. He might be a little soft, but I have to say that in “Moonlight” he had this impossible task and he really delivered amazingly well. He had to show a lot of colors when he transformed into this aggressive vampire. He was great. He’s a real actor, that guy.

  • Stana Katic, Castle star, to The TV Addict on the time slot competition Hawaii Five-0 will bring in the fall:

    This season CASTLE will get a new time slot competitor in CBS’ much-anticipated reboot of HAWAII FIVE-O. Have you given any thought to it and are you at all concerned about the competition?
    “Well you know I think the viewers that have created an allegiance to CASTLE are there for a reason. Something like HAWAII FIVE-O is a different show entirely and I think we’re going after different audiences. That said, I’m sure producers are aware of it, they’re all smart people. And if CASTLE is capable — at least from my understanding — of bouncing of CSI: MIAMI that means it has got some legs and I’m sure that will help us sustain its own sort of audience.”

  • Some good feedback from foreign buyers who were at the LA Screenings in May posted by WorldScreen:

    CBS’s Hawaii Five-O reboot was among the shows cited by a number of buyers as having strong potential. “We thought Hawaii Five-O was very good, and it’s a genre that hasn’t been done in a while,” says Francesco Mozzetti, the head of acquisitions and sales at Italy’s leading commercial broadcaster, Mediaset, of the CBS Studios International show starring Alex O’Loughlin and Lost’s Daniel Dae Kim. Rüdiger Böss, the head of acquisitions at the ProSiebenSat.1 Group, was also impressed with the series, along with another CBS show, the legal dramedy The Defenders with Jim Belushi and Jerry O’Connell. “We have already secured the rights to these series,” says Böss. Roxanne Barcelona, the VP of GMA Worldwide, the acquisitions and sales arm of Filipino broadcaster GMA Network, was a fan of the original Hawaii Five-O and notes, “This remake did not disappoint me, as the pilot script was very well written, production quality was very good, and there was a lot of action.”

    “The CBS series Hawaii Five-O does have potential,” concurs Dirk Schweitzer, the executive VP of program acquisitions and sales at RTL Television. “The pilot, however, was produced very expensively, and it remains to be seen whether the quality of the series [can meet] expectations.

  • David Rancken at Dallas’s 103.7 Lite FM posted this about the pilot:

    “The remake of Hawaii 5-0 is really really good. Action packed. Great cast. Alex O’Laughlin is a great Steve McGarrett. Scott Caan is Danno. Daniel Day Kim is Chin Ho. Great first episode.”

  • A UK reviewer for Cambs24 (Cambridgeshire) who wrote about The A-Team movie has a convoluted way of saying that our pilot rocks:

    “There is also the upcoming remake of Hawaii Five-0 that’s out later this year on US television networks, starring Jin from Lost. I saw the pilot of this the other day and this looks like it breaks the mould in terms of dreadful remakes.”

  • Matt Mitovich and Julie Zied at FanCast share their opinion on the pilot:

    What Works: I wanted to start our First Look series on a high, and ‘Five-O’ is one of this season’s most entertaining pilots. The Hawaii setting is of course gorgeous (even if it perhaps gives ‘Lost’ vet Kim flashbacks to The Island!), and the cast is among TV’s most telegenic. The task force’s first assignment is sufficiently engaging, even as it works to set up the series’ premise and intro the players. Jean Smart (’24?) is the Hawaii governor who taps McGarrett for this plum gig, while James Marsters (’Buffy’s Spike) guest-stars as a nasty (and hopefully recurring) baddie. And yes – the theme song is the same, with near-identical visuals in the opening credits.

    What Needs Work: In this his third CBS series, O’Loughlin isn’t “popping” as much as he did sporting ‘Moonlight’ fangs, but that could balance nicely with Caan’s Danno, who is one entertainingly quippy cop. Also, the pilot screams expensive, kicking off with a literally explosive sequence that introduces McGarrett’s demons; it’ll be interesting to see how they maintain that quality on a weekly basis.

    Take Two, from Fancast’s Julie Zied: Given that I often regard procedurals as background filler best viewed while occupied with other tasks, I was surprised by how instantly captivating this pilot was. O’Loughlin shines as the cocksure pack leader, and his exchanges with his reluctant partner are some of the show’s wittiest. (“You let your daughter sleep here?” McGarrett asks upon seeing Danny’s shabby pad. “Who are you, Nanny 911?” Danny retorts.) As the series progresses, I’m curious to learn more about Jin’s Chin’s shady past and what happened between Danny and his ex that led him to set her ringtone to ‘Grim Reaper.’ I also look forward to the inevitable fan debate over which eligible bachelor – Danny or McGarrett – Kono should sleep with. Bottom line? Beautiful cast + solid writing + exotic scenery = a series poised to give ‘NCIS’ a run for its money as CBS’ most popular drama.

    The Fancast Forecast: ‘Castle’ may wish that ‘CSI: Miami’ had stayed put.

  • Hawaii’s KITV4 News has an article and video about TV and film productions that are helping to put Hawaii on the map: “New ABC TV Series Filmed in Hawaii”.



The Back-up Plan updates:

  • A short video with some footage of the cast at the LA premiere was posted by Celebrity Footage.
  • The Back-up Plan has been nominated for a Teen Choice Award 2010 in the category “Romantic Comedy”! Strangely enough, although Jennifer is nominated in the category “Actress – Romantic Comedy”, Alex is nowhere to be found. Only US residents between 13-19 are permitted to vote. Voting is limited to once per day per category and closes on August 6th.



Other updates:

  • Carol Barbee was presented with a Donate Life Hollywood Inspire Award as well as a Crystal Heart Award for Three Rivers at the Donate Life Hollywood Inspire Awards dinner on June 12th in Beverly Hills. Glenn Matsuki has posted a lovely video of Carol’s acceptance of both honors on the Donate Life Organ & Tissue Donation Blog. Dr. Gonzo spoke at the ceremony and Alex also adds his congratulations at 1:19:

    “Carol, congratulations on everything. I love you so much, it’s so wonderful working with you, we’re about to work together again and all the hard work and dedication and passion and honesty and beauty you put into the show called Three Rivers that I was so proud to be a part of, it’s paid off. Congratulations! I love you.”

  • Sabine Atkins posted some more great photos from the Donate Life Hollywood event and shares an amusing account of her meet & greet with Alex! Check out: “Alex O’Loughlin’s Guide to Proper Gift Giving”.
  • Deadline Hollywood reports that Alex has switched agencies – he is now represented by United Talent Agency. The post suggests that he may have made the change in order to stay with Chris Hart:

    Alex O’Loughlin left ICM for UTA. (Chris Hart was on his team, and the agent just jumped from ICM to UTA.)

  • Alex appeared in a fashion feature in the July issue of Madison magazine with photos shot by Carlotta Moye. You can view some scans on the Sassi Sam blog; I’ll be posting HQ scans in the gallery this coming week.



Gallery updates:

  • A small article from an internal CBS publication was added with a picture of Alex and Daniel Dae Kim at the recent LA Screenings.
  • More images from the June 11th Donate Life Hollywood cocktail party have been added, including some lovely images by Susan Whitney.
  • Added The Back-up Plan posters from Hungary, Poland, Israel and a French version of the first poster.

So, this short update is the result of a “quiet” week… We can expect to have a couple more as the show doesn’t start shooting till mid July. Hopefully CBS will announce the premiere dates for the fall shows in the next two weeks. Things will start revving up as we approach the TCA Summer Tour early August and then I expect it will be non-stop action until Christmas. Enjoy the peace and quiet while you can!  :smile:

AOLR Weekly Wrap-Up #46

June 13, 2010 By 1 Comment

Hawaii Five-0 updates:

  • The New York Post published a great article on remaking old TV series with input from various program executives:

    • “The challenge is greater when you reboot a show,” says David Stapf, president of CBS Television Studios. “It better be pretty good, because you are putting it up against something that was great.

    “What you don’t want is: ‘It’s good, but it’s not as good as the original.’ ”

    “People’s preconceived notion is not to like it just because it’s a remake,” says Sherman [the CW's executive vice president of drama development]. ” ‘We’ve seen it already, we loved the first one. How are we ever going to love the second one?’

    “We have to fight that a lot.”

    About Hawaii Five-0:

    Unlike [Stapf's] previous series “90210″ and “Melrose,” which he admits relied too much on nostalgia, he’s treating “Hawaii Five-O” as if “we’re doing a show that no one’s ever heard of . . . our mantra going into this is that it’s a show that can completely stand alone.”

  • Some new talent has been recruited to join the Hawaii Five-0 extended team:
    • Deadline Hollywood reports that Brad Turner is now on board as co-executive producer/director; he joins the production from 24, where he was producer-director for the last four seasons.
    • Wayne Harada writes that Erika Kauffman has been hired as unit publicist for the series. According to the Star Advertiser (the recently merged Honolulu Star Bulletin and Honolulu Advertiser), this is a big deal as having a local unit publicist is akin to “having a pass to the board room.”
    • Rick – a.k.a. Magnum P.I. Set Decorator – who worked on the pilot in March, is happy to report that he starts work as the H50 set decorator this coming week! Rick writes:

      “You will, however, learn more about Steve McGarrett and Danny Williams in the pilot than you learned in the 12 years of the original 5-0 and some of the best dialogue I’ve ever read in a television script. Of course the sets will be so wonderful, you may not notice what the actors are saying! (guess I’d better say lol in case anyone else reads this)”

  • For some pilot spoilers (nothing drastic and most of it you’ll probably already know), check out Dontkillspike’s LJ.
  • The Hollywood Reporter published an article about the shows expected to make an appearance at the upcoming San Diego Comic-Con:

    In the case of “Five-0,” there’s a few factors that make the show more Comic-Con friendly than one might expect. It’s remake of the 1970s series, plus CBS’ tentpole new title for the fall and boasts heavy amounts of action. But what best lures Comic-Con fans to a new show is the panelists, and “Five-0” has former “Battlestar” vet Grace Park and ex-”Lost” co-star Daniel Dae Kim, as well as “Star Trek” producers Alex Kutrzman and Roberto Orci.

    Although Grace Park’s and Daniel Dae Kim’s names have come up as Comic-Con attendees in one or two blogs, nothing official has been published yet. As the con is still a little under six weeks away, anything can happen between now and then to the lineup.

  • Hawaii’s MidWeek Magazine is featuring Daniel Dae Kim as their cover story. Alex will undoubtedly be in good company as Daniel sounds like a great guy! DDK shares some of his expectations of H50:

    “I think one of the nicest things about Hawaii Five-0 is that we’ll be able to showcase Hawaii. As much as LOST did for the Islands, the one thing it wasn’t able to do was show off the people and the culture. I’m sure the producers of Five-0 are looking forward to that opportunity. I know I certainly am.”

    “My character is going to be riding a motorcycle. I’ve ridden casually and I’ve ridden dirt bikes when I was younger, so I had some experience, but this is the first time I’ve ever been licensed.”

    “I know how much this project (Hawaii Five-0) means to the people of Hawaii, and I will do what I can to be mindful of that. Whether it means hiring as many local actors and crew as we can, or just making sure the people and culture are represented with respect, taking care of Hawaii will definitely be a priority for me.

    “If our show is done right, Hawaii will be a big reason for its success.”

    You can follow Daniel on Twitter. He can also be found on Facebook and has an official website.

  • I never thought I’d write this, but here’s a cute post on Deadline Hollywood: Like Father, Like Son – is this the Next Generation Television Stars?
  • From an update from Taryn Manning on her blog:

    “As for Hawaii 5-0, I was privileged enough to view the hush-hush pilot and can promise you it is breathtakingly beautiful. I’ll be on your screens in the second episode so get ready :) Working with the cast, especially Scott Caan and Alex O’Loughlin, was wonderful as they are all brilliant actors. I should be leaving on a jet plane for paradise in the near future and am excited for the times to come.”

The latest on The Back-up Plan:

  • The Back-up Plan will be released on DVD and Blu-ray in the UK on September 20th and is now available for pre-order at Amazon UK!
  • No release date has been published yet for the US, but Amazon is now accepting pre-orders for both the DVD and the Blu-ray.
  • Philadelphia Inquirer film critic Carrie Rickey published an entertaining post titled “Abs-urd“ about how “chiseled, manscaped and moisturized abs have become the male counterpart of an actress’s topless scene” in movies:

    I thought the trend had crested in 2009. Last year’s X-Men Origins: Wolverine was effectively an abs showdown between Hugh Jackman  and Ryan Reynolds. Reynolds’ abs nearly eclipsed his performance in last year’s The Proposal. Then came Taylor Lautner and his 10-pack in Twilight: New Moon. But 2010 looks to be similarly abs-urd. Wahlberg’s shirtlessness is a running gag in Date Night. This week Alex O’Loughlin and his abs upstage J-Lo and her assets in The Back-Up Plan. While watching O’Loughlin, I couldn’t help but notice that he has hair above his pecs and is shaven below, all the better to see the abdominal definition. Made me nostalgic for the chest hair on Burt Reynolds and Alec Baldwin.

  • A box office update: according to Box Office Mojo, the movie has grossed $56.6M worldwide so far. Unless I’m mistaken, The Back-up Plan still has to open in: Colombia, the Czech Republic, the Netherlands, Serbia and Montenegro, Slovakia, Ecuador, Romania, Belgium, Chile, Denmark, Peru, Portugal, Bulgaria, Central America, Finland, Norway, Taiwan, Malaysia, Sweden, Thailand, Brazil and lastly, on July 29th in New Zealand.

Other updates:

  • It appears that although Sabine Atkins did get to meet Alex on Friday night at the Donate Life Hollywood VIP reception/cocktail party, there was no time for their interview as Alex’s car service was unable to pick him up in time. I’m sure he must have hated to have arrived late and disappoint Sabine, but from all the reports so far, she is nevertheless absolutely thrilled to have met him! Sabine will be posting more about the event on her organ donation blog soon, but meanwhile, check out the other snippets (and pictures) on Facebook!
  • Tierney Bricker, who writes for E!, was also present at the Donate Life Hollywood event on Friday and did get to interview Alex, so keep an eye out for it on Kristin Dos Santos’s blog!
  • If you still can’t get enough of Alex (and what sane woman with a :heart: can?), here’s a collection of Alex soundbites posted by Entertonement.
  • A couple of polls – they don’t always need to have a higher purpose to be fun:
  • You’ll be seeing some changes to the website in the course of the coming week! It’s being moved to a more stable framework and you can expect to see layout modifications and cosmetic tweaks. All the better to showcase our favorite Aussie with! :heart2:
  • Posted by Deb on YouTube: Three Rivers promo for Every Breath You Take – next Saturday’s episode!
  • There’s a recently posted TV Guide Mega Buzz video on YouTube with “scoop” on Alex. The information is a little dated, but you can just enjoy the opportunity to catch a glimpse of Doc Andy, Lt.Cmdr. Steve and Mick St. John in one segment! (There’s also a Hulu version of this video doing the rounds that is not viewable by international fans – this YouTube version is!)

Gallery updates:

  • HQs from the Donate Life Hollywood Film Festival reception are now available!
  • I’ve replaced all the MQs in the 2007 Summer TCA press tour album, added some more images and as the pics were big enough, I’ve also done some crops of Alex.
  • The MQs of the September 2004 photos taken of Alex at the Toronto International Film Festival have also been replaced with HQs. The resolution was such that I was able to make a couple of nice crops of a very hairy Alex!
  • Also added is an album with five beautiful HQs from Alex’s January rooftop photoshoot in Sydney – much, much better than just scans from the articles!

Have a great week, everyone!
