When Close to Home killed off Annabeth's husband in the last minute of the show last season, I had high hopes that they would bring back Eric Foster. No such luck, they hired the guy from JAG, David James Elliot to take over as a new boss for her group. They might still bring Eric back in a guest part, but I think it's a long shot.

It's a crappy show, but it would have been a job. I do want to see him do something besides Stargate Atlantis on a regular or recurring basis.

I wonder if he'll get to do a movie?

Does anyone know if he's auditioned for any movies? I can't believe such a talented actor hasn't been offered a film role before now.........or would he rather be with his family and do short tv roles instead of a long film shoot?

I'm assuming he auditions for everything, but I don't know. We must have Bajor Ron ask him at the Utopia convention next month.

Before someone else does, I will point the Holodeck topic out on the subject of Shakespear.  Why do they never do TV adaptations of Shakespear?  I don't recall any in the UK, but I might be wrong. 

I know Shakespear wrote for the stage as opposed to TV drama's - but wouldn't that be good if they did?

It would be fantastic as long as it was a good production. Just think how many more people would be exposed to it. That sounds like something only a Public Broadcasting Station (PBS) would do over here, because no network would think it could get good ratings.

Oh definatley, you wouldn't want a slap-dash job of it. If the stage attracts many Shakespear fans surely TV can do the same with a quality production.  We'll have to write to all the broadcasters and complain TMG....

Looks like no one has posted a reply to this thread for a while, but I wanted to add my two cents. 

Just watched an episode of one of my favorite shows, FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS, and it occurred to me that Connor would be PERFECT on this show.  It's obviously very different from Enterprise, but I think he'd fit right in.  He's definitely got the emotional range, sensitivity and charm to be on this show--and we already know that he can do the accent.  Couldn't you just picture him as Coach Taylor's (Kyle Chandler) younger brother?--they've got the same kind of low-key, endearing charm.  And it occurred to me that while there's a ton of hormonal teenagers running around in the cast, the Coach Taylor character doesn't really have any male characters around his age to play off of (Buddy Garrity does NOT count). 

My sister is an actress and I think she mentioned to me that Friday Night Lights is currently casting some principal roles (the casting agency is in Texas, I think)--someone tell Connor's agent to get off his/her butt and see if there'd be a role appropriate for him on the show.

Although, maybe it's not such a good idea since FNL's chances of survival into next season are iffy, and having to go through the pain of another premature cancellation would really suck for CT.

I have seen so many shows that would be perfect for Connor......I would love to know if his approach to the sci-fi channel was successful.

The next time he is at a con someone should ask him.
