Those of us of a (ahem) certain age, sex, and access to TV grew up idolizing one or all three of the following small-screen actors: Bruce Willis (Moonlighting), George Peppard (A-Team), and the ’stached hero that the Gods christened “Tom Selleck”. MacGyver had zero personality, and the Duke boys had little appeal outside their car. Plus, the whole show seemed dumb to me even in my youth, and the South is where I unfortunately lived half of my life. Although, you can replace Peppard with Dirk Benedict (Battlestar Galactica, A-Team), who was a bit preppy and rarely drove the van. Tom Selleck was the pinnacle of manhood in my young eyes – awesome scenery, red exotic car, and facial hair that all boys aspire to grow. Selleck’s post-Magnum career is nothing to sneeze at, although no really great movie roles. “Quigley Down Under” was entertaining western fluff. His gay role in “In and Out” was memorable. Unless you watch a lot of TV movies (I don’t know anyone who actually does), you may wonder what he’s been up to. “The Daily Show” invites him on regularly, and his latest is funny. What he’s “up to” now is exactly how I imagined it.
