    • Trivia
      The series' recurring role of "Brent Legget" (Brent David Fraser), troubled brother of Ryan (Christian Kane), was originally a comedian, but was completely re-written and changed to be a Singer/Songwriter when the producers and writers thought it a much better choice to use maximize the innate talents of Brent David Fraser not only casting the Actor in the role, but also casting the role in the Actor.

    Wonderful Show!
    I truly fell in love with the characters. They were very down to earth but each and every one of them had a hidden dark side. Sort of a mystery. David Graysmark, himself, was an enigma. The secret fears and just secrets in general that he had. There was a whole side of him that the other characters knew nothing about and it left the audience either wondering or assuming. There was always a part of this man that he would keep hidden away, yet he'd share a little of himself too. He was the strong male lead character and I admire that type of character. Billy Moses himself is an incredible actor who could do just about any type of part! He's an amazing talent and a good man. His fans love, respect, and support him endlessly.

    Since this show he's gone onto many other projects and has stretched his acting ability quite a bit more and quite well. Kudos to him and all the other actors from this show for doing such an excellent job! I wish them all well. I wish the series would've continued on! It's such a shame it didn't!
