I did a double take tonight while watching the premiere of Kellie Martin's new series, "Crisis Center." The young father-to-be, Brian, who was trying to gain custody of his unborn child was portrayed by none other than the actor who portrayed Lundy in "Christy!" His character was intelligent, caring, - in other words, a complete opposite of his last role. Now, all we needed was SFM to put in an appearance. I could just hear Kellie, aka Kathy Goodman on the show, uttering the words, "Haven't we met before?"
I saw Crisis Center on Friday too and caought our Lundy too! He was also on a couple episodes of ER last year. Maybe SFM will make an appearance on a future episode of CC. ha ha ha Still hoping :))) Take care

Now that's an idea! We should watch the show in hopes that SFM appears on it - maybe even gets a reoccurring role! ;) Jill

Oh, come on Evelyn. You must get with the program. SFM is the initials for Stuart Finley-McLennan, the actor who portrayed Neil MacNeill. For some reason which I will never understand, he has quite a few lovestrucked fans.---Annette Burns

Well, I'm not lovestruck, but I do admit to being facinated by Stuart Finley-McClennan. Does anyone know of any interesting web sights or fan clubs for him? I have looked but have found very little info on this talented actor.

Ah, so you wish everyone would rave about RB (David)? ;) But pray tell, what *don't* you understand? Him or his character?

Hi Annette,
Ah, but your problem lies in the word "understand" - the secret to the SFM's appeal can only be discovered through the senses not the brain. Put a "Christy" tape in your VCR - any episode will do in which the dreamy SFM is included. Now, relax and lose yourself in the aura of his rugged manliness. Notice the quickening of your heart whenever his face appears on your screen, the feeling of breathlessness that overcomes you whenever you hear that mezmerizing Scottish accent, the sweaty palms whenever the word "Neil" is merely mentioned.
Can you honestly say that this does not happen to you each and everytime you watch an episode of "Christy?" Or perhaps you do experience the symptoms of SFM-itis, but only when watching a scene containing a certain man of the cloth? In that case, I suppose you must have RB-itis. Oooh, that sounds like a horrible affliction, doesn't it? Hee hee!

I say put your money where your keyboard is, Caro. Let's have some of that romantic tension between Christy and Neil in CotH.... pronto! No more of this looooooong dialog between Bird's Eye & Lundy. The suspense is killing me!
Ditto on the rugged and cute part! But I also feel that he's a really talented actor whose part added a lot to the show! I wonder if he has any new projects he's working on?
I agree. :) I've always thought of him as ruggedly handsome. But besides all that, I think that he absolutely brought the role of the doctor to life. He was exactly the way I pictured the doctor as.

You mean someone else feels that way too?!?!!!
Has anyone ever seen the movie he was in about three years ago? I'm wondering if it is worth getting. All I know about him is that he's from Australia. Anyone heard any news about him recently?

I definitely agree!!! Neil and Christy haven't so much as even thought about each other for like the past 4 choices enstallments! Joy

Ah, goody! I see that I'm effectively using the element of suspense in my sequel! Hee hee! However, seeing that C is in Asheville, it would be very difficult for me to write some of that romantic tension into a scene between our lovers-to-be. You'll jest have to put up with some more sparin' between yer favorite pappy an' son team fer a spell longer. Until 'bout installment 50 or so . . .
Yes, he's got that virile manliness about him--not that half-man half-boy that's David. He's a real man's man that's so irrestible to us women! He's intense and knows exactly what he wants-- there's nothing wimpy and wishy-washy about him!

Movie????!!!
Sarah would be the one to answer that. Saraaaaaahhhh, where are you?
You make me smile!! I couldn't have said it better myself! Now if we could just get some of that "appeal" in CotH, then we'd all be happy. I'm getting impatient waiting and waiting ;)) Hurry up would you!!
Good point Jill--*great* point. When I saw SFM he *was* Neil MacNeill. The character was well-written in the book, but SFM made Neil come alive. Neil is like a romance novel hero come to life--strong willed, determined, and passionate about life and about his woman, which please let's be honest, is pretty appealing....and it's not like Neil is some overbearing jerk. (Well, at first he was pretty snippy, but that changed.) He clearly cares about Christy's ideas and interests, and he respects as well as loves her. Besides, while I've already addressed this, let me throw caution to the wind and say this--SFM is more than just ruggedly cute; our Stewie is a total babe! No, he's not exactly "pretty," but he *is* all man.
Kimmie--really *not* lovestruck, but having fun with this! (but I do mean every word of what I'm saying....Annette, stop gagging!)

Sure they have. Out of sight doesn't mean out of mind. Just because there is no dialogue written that expressively says that Christy or Neil are thinking of one another, doesn't mean that they aren't. In fiction, sometimes the author has to let the audience use their imagination!

Romantic tension is like fine wine: it has to have time to build and build and build . . .
I *have seen* the movie SFM was in--Aspen Extreme--and I can tell you--*don't bother!* SFM is listed in the credits as Rudy Zucker; he has approximately 2 seconds of actual screen time. I'm not kidding. He shows up at the end of the movie; his character and another are skiing against the lead character. You see SFM for about a second, and then the storyline has his character and another skiing in competition against the lead character and his partner. When the two skiiers (supposedly SFM and his partner) get to the bottom of the hill, there's another 1-second shot of him, not even a close-up. There may be one more reaction shot when he loses, but again it's from a distance. I swear to you that if his character didn't have a name--if the other characters didn't mention skiing against Rudy Zucker--SFM would never have even been mentioned in the credits, his part is that tiny. What a waste of talent!! I sat through that stupid movie and he doesn't even get to say *one* word!!

Wow! I can tell you're really disgusted! I would be, too. OK, I won't bother watching that movie! Is that the only thing he's been in, though? You're right; that is a waste of talent.
