I don't know what Matt is doing right now. I think the film Ghost Rider.... Oh and a new pilot for ABC.

Yeah I forget the name of the Pilot. Since ABC is doing pretty good right now with their shows, hopefully his will be a success.

i can't wait to see him on my television!!

jsrocks · 04-20-2006, 09:22 PM

He's a very good actor. I hope he does a lot more stuff.

I didn't really think Matt was anything amazing when playing Jack. He wasn't bad, though.

It'll be very interesting to Matt in another role. As much as Jack annoyed me for most of the season, Matt did a great job playing him. Like I could actually tell the difference between Long, who is way less uptight, and McCallister, golden boy.

I watched the last few episodes a couple of weeks ago and he definitely shone in all of them. I wish him the best of luck on his new project.

What's up with the long hair from Logan and now Matt as well?

what's it about?
(from ABC's press release) Welcome to Santa Ruiz, voted America's most desirable place to live. That was before a murder and a kidnapping of twin high school girls took place here... the first serious crimes since 1909. Now everyone's in shock. People claim that things like this just don't happen here. But in this small town, everyone has secrets and there's no place to hide. Beth escaped from Santa Ruiz's small-town life when she walked out on her wedding eight years ago and she's never been back. Now as a reporter fresh from assignments in Rome and Afghanistan, Beth's come back to cover this front page story for the sake of her career. Her boss (and new fiancé), Nash, thinks she has unfinished business in Santa Ruiz and it's clear during the hostile reunion with her sister, now the town sheriff, that he was right. Beth may have a hometown advantage over other reporters, knowing the town's three big families as intimately as she does, but she won't like covering the story if the dirt she uncovers is her own. Even as her investigative reporting helps locate the kidnapped twin, she has managed to dig up other secrets revealing just how undesirable this town may really be.

From all that I've read this show tested really good and is a frontrunner to get picked up by ABC. Also it will most likely be after DH on Sunday's.

Oh wow!! Thanks for posting that! The long hair is different but it's cool to see him change. This show could be pretty good!

thegreenlight · 05-05-2006, 12:35 PM

Thanks for the pic/info. The one chick looks real familiar.... Oh, she's from Law & Order.

jsrocks · 05-05-2006, 01:00 PM

Yeah she was on Law & Order. I love that show.

MissCongeniality · 05-10-2006, 03:35 PM

Wow, he looks so different! I am looking forward to see him busting out those acting chops again.

jsrocks · 05-10-2006, 04:07 PM

Yeah he really is a good actor and I'm glad to see him in something else. Hopefully this show will be really good so he'll get to work on it for a while.

**Kaleiokalani** · 05-12-2006, 08:54 PM

Ok, "Secrets" is looking like it might not get picked up after all even though it tested the best out of all ABC pilots. The reasoning behind it is because it's too DH like which sucks big time!

jsrocks · 05-20-2006, 02:17 PM

I'm excited for this show. I mostly want to see Matt in another role b/c he really is a good actor and I know he's got a bright career ahead of him.
