Did anyone else see the commercial for this Sunday's Crossing Jordan? Looked a lot like Marcus Chait from Urban Cowboy. Can anyone confirm? I was one of the apparently FEW fans of Urban Cowboy, and would love to watch the show if it's him.
Thanks.

By the way, anyone else having trouble logging in? I had to create a new name today.

That's him. If the link doesn't work, just do a google search for "Crossing Jordan" "Marcus Chait."

Thanks Musetta-
I saw the commercial again last night during West Wing, and saw it certainly was Marcus. Good to see Broadway folks getting some television work as well. I am a big fan of Crossing J, and as I said, was a big fan of Urban Cowboy. So this should be a fun show. At least for me!

Did anyone else happen to watch last night. First of all (and kind of off topic, I suppose), Crossing Jordan continues to be one of my favorite shows on television. The storylines are always so intriguing and the "look" of the show is so different than anything else on t.v. these days. Plus, the acting is always very strong.
And Marcus was so good as Alex Dwyer, the "bad guy". Totally different bad guy than his Wes in Urban Cowboy. He had one big scene where he showed some real vulnerability, and then some really cool fight scenes with this woman that looked great. I'm not sure how much t.v. work he has done in the past, but he looked like a seasoned pro. No over acting, as I've noticed some stage performers seem to do when they switch to television or film. I have to say I was impressed. Congratulations to him, and here's hoping we get to see him on the screen more (and back on bway!). Updated On: 5/17/04 at 11:52 AM
