Okay. I probably didn't have to start a new thread for this, either, but : A new show is starting tonight on ABC Family. (8:30 Eastern). Ruby and the Rockits - about a former rocker dad. Starring none other than David Cassidy. I hear half brother Shawn (Saun? forget how he spells it) will be on it as well. Wonder how that will turn out. Okay, you can ignore this now. I just wanted to say, "C'mon, get happy."  Edit: Apparently SHAUN is a producer, and it's brother Patrick that's in it. Maybe Shaun will make a guest appearance. Not bad, kinda cute. Not GREAT. Kind of has a Two and a Half Men vibe to it. (Cleaned up, of course.) Okay, back to ignoring this.  |

I don't know about this new show, but David Cassidy played one of the funniest characters in TV history on Malcolm in the Middle when he played former teen heartthrob & current Las Vegas sensation Boone Vincent.  I never had any opinion of the Cassidys beyond desperately trying for Shawn's hairstyle in my youth, but David's rendition of Papa Don't Preach made me a believer.   |

He's playing a similar character in this new show. Former idol, now Vegas showman, full of himself. (He didn't wear any fringe, though.)

So you were a Shawn-groupie before you were Sol-groupie? Anyone else we should know about??? The "Rock-n-Roll Hoochie Koo" guy, perhaps?  Or Donny Osmond, maybe??? |

donny osmond? not hardly! now bobby brady, on the other hand. he seemed so sophisticated when he got those braces.
i saw a segment on the ruby show on entertainment tonight last night, and they showed a clip of shawn cassidy. he has really aged well. still a good lookin' feller.
