I really wish they had not done season 6. The show utterly lost its way halfway through season 5. Writers were no longer following the characters and started pushing them uphill.
I can hear the theme for Northern Exposure in my head.
Oh Lordy, Jon Stewart makes me laugh! Such "candid" pics! 🤣 Just a natural. Rob Morrow is so different from Joel here - so soft spoken, almost shy. Such a great actor - he really became Joel. Am enjoying "Northern Exposure" again 30 years later, now that it's finally streaming!
He talks exactly like Joel
Jon is a baby. Jon and Janeane Turner went much different directions politically later, so I'm sure he didn't see her so favorably later on. I've never looked up my favorite show of all time and it's fun to see these old interviews from when it was still on the air. Rob's so soft spoken compared to Joel Fleishman. Much more likeable. Haha.
BEST SHOW EVER!! SO GLAD Amazon Prime is FINALLY releasing it after 30 years. Rob is so quiet and mellow in this interview... On the show he is so neurotic and hysterical and high strung. And Janine Turner turned out to be a christlamic anti Semetic Trumper so... NOPE. No dating Jon Stewart. He dodged a bullet.
WTF! Just because she's a Trumper does not make her anti-Semitic. She and Rob were great friends during the NE years and still are.
First of all name one thing that makes a Trump supporter an antisemite. That is a stupid assumption based on no fact other than your very own prejudice. Second, which side has displayed the blatant antisemitism on college campuses the last few months? The Left. Those are not Trump supporters, those people on college campuses are products of leftwing extremism, and they are deeply antisemitic. 99% of Trump supporters believe in supporting Israel, very different story on the left.
It’s amazing how people have turned on her because of her political beliefs.
@@flourchylde Back in the day, most of us were republicans. VERY DIFFERENT TIMES back then.
@@allthingsclassicrock Yea... White christian nationalism just gets a bad rap... Jewish people and native Americans and LGBT and Immigrants are just so sensitive. 🙄
wow Jon Stewart has evolved
The reason Norther Exposure ended was because Rob Morrow didn't want to do it anymore. Then claims it was the greatest thing he's done, brings it up to this day.
His film career didn't take off the way he hoped, although he got off to a good start with: "Quiz Show".
NE revolve around the main character Joel, and when he left, the show disintegrated... It was embarrassing and unwatchable.
Not to me.
Adam DeGulio?
Before Jon became a douche.
