He would obviously play Flynn.
He's too young and the wrong type for Amos, and Fred Casely is barely in the show.

Posted: 7/21/06 at 5:19pmThat is who I was thinking too but didn't they just sign up Usher for Flynn? The article seemed to be indicate that this will happen sooner than later.

Posted: 7/22/06 at 1:49amIt could be interesting, only because he's kinda hot. Otherwise, he's barely D-List, so I don't know how he would be recognized and marketable outside of those who watched The Restaurant or saw his appearances on Danza or those home shopping channels. But he does have charisma, so maybe there is talent beyond it.

This drives me nuts. There are so many talented actors out there...
I used to think he was so cute, but then I watched an episode of The Restaurant. He seems like a total egomaniac.

I'd rather Giada DeLaurentis as Roxie and Ray as Velma!
