My First National TV Spot!

This week, my national TV debut aired on Court TV (June 7 was the initial airing). It's a crime re-enactment show called "North Mission Road". My role is Detective Crowley.

Here's a link to a preview...

Whether or not they keep that link in their archives for historical purposes, at least it's something you can look at in 2007.

It's my first screen credit in a nationally-televised show, and my name is even spelled correctly in the credits!

The feeling I'm having right now is one of controlled enthusiasm. I'm not spiking the ball in the end zone and doing a victory dance. Does the phrase "act like you've been there before" ring a bell? Even though I haven't been there before, I want to act that way.

This is just the beginning...

Or the middle...

In any event, I'm happy. And looking forward to the next milestone.
