Schitt's Creek: The Final Season
The brilliant Dan Levy, and the cast of Schitt's Creeks begins it's final season this week on CBC and Pop. I discovered the hilarious sit-com during it's third season and quickly binged watched the first two season to catch up. The series is so beautifully written, blending side splitting comedy with a a lot of heart.
Levy (above pulling a Taylor Lautner as host of MTV's The After Show) is hopefully going to be making us laugh for years to come. The actor and writer signed a multi-year deal with ABC television last fall, so hopefully will have shows on the air before too long. I respect Levy and his father Eugene (flashing a little butt on FH HERE:)
I also hope some wise producer hires Catherine O'Hara quickly! O'Hara has some famous movie roles, but none as memorable as her turn as Moira Schitt. I personally would kill to see her cawing in a version of The Crows Have Eyes II!
I also need to find another way to get my fix of Dustin Milligan. (above with Levy) I love his character Ted, and although Patrick and David are a great couple, I personally enjoy Ted and Alexis just as much. Ted left on an adventure at the end of last season, hope the show doesn't keep him off screen for too long.
I wish Levy had chosen to continue the show for another season or two to hit that 100 episode mark, but we'll have to be grateful for over seventy episodes from the shows six seasons.
Mark Humphrey: ACTORS & Skin
'That mean I'm out of the doghouse?'
Ok, I have to first admit that I've never seen a second of the television show E.N.G. But... as a kid, I remember distinctly seeing the previews for the Canadian drama, one particular scene was especially memorable. If you watch the 15 second bumper below, you'll know exactly why the promo made such an impact.
The hottie coming out of shower is actor Mark Humphrey who played Jake on the show. E.N.G stands for electric news-gathering and Jake was the cameraman who drew not only my attention, but also that of the shows executive producer Anne. (Sara Botsford) This clearly led to some conflict, and an eventual love triangle between Jake, Anne and Mike, (Art Hindle) the stations newly -appointed new director. The info on the show comes from wiki, and I'm not sure I'll ever see an extended version of Jake's shower scene as although it lasted five seasons, the show doesn't appear to have ever had a DVD release.
Christmas Bells Are Ringing (2019)
This past Christmas, I caught part of the movie Christmas Bells Are Ringing. Although the film had a perfectly crush worthy young romantic lead, (Josh Kelly) I found myself drawn to the even hottie dad. I knew there was something familiar about the face, the actor. A quick IMDB search took me to actor Mark Humphrey and right back back to that shower scene from the E.N.G promo. Was so happy to find the old promo on Youtube.
If, like me, you didn't catch mark on E.N.G, you might recognize him from his roles in Iron Eagle II, Alias, JAG, C.S.I Miami and Paradise Falls. More recently, Mark appeared as the mysterious preacher Frank Hogan on the Hallmark Channel's When Calls The Heart. Of course, I had to search to find out if Mark had any nude scenes within the many roles on his resume. I found two. Check them out in the SKIN portion of Actors & Skin in the post below.
Iron Eagle II (1988)
When Calls The Heart
Mark Humphrey: Actors & SKIN
The first of Mark's nude scenes that I could find was an episode of the television show Dead Man's Gun. Unlike E.N.G, I not only never saw any of Dead Man's Gun, I'd not ever heard of it until putting together this piece.
Dead Man's Gun (1997)
Gathering the remainder of his family and friends, a dying man uses the weekend to see who deserves what of his considerable estate and holdings, one of which is the Deadman's Gun
In the season 1 episode, Next of Kin, Humphrey has a love scene with Canadian actress Helen Shaver. Now I do know who Helen is, only because she showed up in a few of the many Blockbuster movies I rented in hopes of finding some male skin. Dead Man's Gun appears to be an anthology TV show with a rotating cast hosted by singer and actor Kris Kristofferson. In addition to Humphrey and Shaver, Next of Kin also featured actor Edward Asner.
Although Mark's nudity was for a TV show, there are appears to be a very dark frontal, but it was almost impossible to see on the old VHS copy of the episode that I found. Not sure if the show had DVD's, and it's doubtful it had an HD release, but enjoyable none the less.
Poison (2000)
Traci is a devious teenage girl who befriends and kills anyone who comes between her and her mother, Dana, a failed movie actress who lies for and protects Traci
Spoiler alert, Mark' character David doesn't last too long in the 2000 flick Poison, Traci ensured of that. He did however, stick around long enough to rile up the devious Traci, and to give audiences a fairly decent view of his beautiful behind.
