TV scares the shit out of me.
With all due respect, it’s a business about numbers and how many people are watching.
When you work in the system the way I do at the moment, occasionally you come across material that can seem like you’re going to compromise your integrity as an artist by participating in it.
That’s scary because you think, ‘How am I going to make it out of TV alive?’

18 May 2011 – For Hawaii Five-0
I think the hardest thing in network TV is to maintain truth, to maintain integrity in the work and integrity in the characters and the easiest thing is to go to the classic network, ‘Yeah,’ the dishonest, easy approach and I just can’t live with myself to do that. I don’t want to do that. I would rather just do another job.

I really love the 3 Rivers close-up. His eyes are so gorgeous, you can get lost in their hypnotic depths. He really is so very pretty. Sigh…

Alex is just the handsomest guy in the world, period!
And when i read the quotes that he has expressed over the years i just think “Well, Mr Handsome also has a very well functioning brain”

Oh, thanks for the great pics. Some of them I hadn’t in my collection. And those I have, I’m glad to get them in b&w. I really love b&w pictures! 🙂
He’s just beautiful. Obviously outside, but also – and that’s what really matters – inside.

The originals are all in colour, but I have this thing for the B&W’s sometimes 😀 The 2009 pic however looked terrible in B&W, so I left them in colour. Just let me now if you want any of the originals 🙂

Awesome, he looks perfect in every setting and b/w suits him perfectly. After I could tear my eyes away from the inviting opening to the left, I could really enjoy all the beauty in the middle. I like him classical with long and short hair. The trendy hairstyles don’t do that much for me. IMO this isn’t really Alex.
Thanks Foyeur for the nice treat.

What a way to start a weekend! Long or short hair, well shaved or with scruff or beard, with open collar or tie, he always looks great in a suit.
Like girls already said, he’s not just a handsome but is smart man, beautiful soul and generous heart. Thank you for this pics collection.
