You know the more I think about this article, the more I believe that Three Rivers will get picked up.

Since I'm sure the CBS promotion machine had something to do with the article, I can only surmise some high mucky muck asked them to promote Alex. We could guess that putting Alex in TV Guide will help TV Guide sell issues but I think that's probably true of other actors as well. So that alone would not be a good enough reason to write an article. So the only think I can come up with is that CBS has already decided that TR will be on its fall schedule and this article was designed to keep him in the public eye.

That is pretty much what I said earlier. I so agree with Amy---it seems so coordinated and arranged to get our hunk out there.

nayp it's a quote from the movie -
The Cowardly Lion:
I do believe in spooks. I do believe in spooks. I do, I do, I do, I do, I *do* believe in spooks,
or something like that

Maan, she's
harsh!
Uh... so I'm gonna pick up about 5 copies of TV Guide when it arrives on my grocery store's shelves tomorrow. Two for me (one to cut up, one to keep whole), two to mail to friends, and one extra.

Allow me,
nayp.
I really hope you're right,
Amy. It certainly sounds reasonable. That plus Back-Up Plan is being made by CBS as well (whatever their new film division is called - the name escapes me) so it really must be them behind the promotional push.
This
has to be a good sign. It just has to.

Promotion is good!
Does it mean that Alex will be on several talk shows and give numerous interviews promoting the show and the movie?
Please, say YES!

oh allegrita, I hope you don't think I am harsh, I was just thinking flying monkeys was off topic.
