Blind Item #8

You may not have known it, but this former A list mostly television actor who every teen who watched his show had a crush on and had a hit cable show for many years after was sober after a drunken arrest. Our actor is drinking again and heavily and his actress girlfriend is really worried.

    I am assuming that he was arrested for being drunk. Then got sober. Now is drinking? I am sending a copy of Eats Shoots and Leaves to Enty.

  12. I'm guessing someone from a Disney show, I would say Shia but he's not mostly TV. Cable show for years, rules out Cassidy.

  22. Mark Paul Gosslear?

  23. I don't think stamos works. He wasn't on a hit cable show "for years" and has never said he quit drinking. Doesn't have a girlfriend either.

  24. Thanks Nemesis! That's his name.
    I always get him confused with Van Der Who's a who

  25. It can't be the hoff, I was early teens then, and even I had enough taste not to have a crush on him.

    1. @Nope - nope! :D

      Nicholas Brendon's post-Buffy career has been spotty (I'm guessing due, in part, to the drugs and alcohol and rehab stints) and there was no cable series for him. He still does ComiCons, though.

  27. Well then all I got, and it's nebulous at best is:
    Kevin Connelly
    TV series unhappily Ever After(4 year in 90,s
    Entourage-cable hit
    Lydia heart, if they are back together after split earlier in month..which is entirelyossible...maybe it's why they split

  31. I know this is bullshit because I was a teen once and I know I didn't have a crush on whoever this guy is. So I have nothing.....

  36. @Jessi,
    Shia drives? I thought he just walks out of grocery stores with a bag full of munchie type food. Always assumed his place was very near a grocery store. I'm quite convinced I'm right.

  37. I think it was supposed to read: You'd never think he was sober since he was arrested for DUI. Apparently he's drinking again.

    That said if it ain't David Cassidy I got nothing. There wasn't anyone on TV I had a crush on besides him and Davy Jones and Davy has left the building.

  38. David Cassidy doesn't have actress gF...was married a million years and wife in process of divorcing him...he has plural DUIs and never stopped drinking
    Reads as so done you didn't know was a drinker, got arrested quietly, got sober...and is currently..drinking again

    ReplyDelete
  39. And never had cable series...very much not Cassidy..

  40. I am going with Mark Paul Gosselaar, aka Zack Morris. LOOOOVE him. Show #1 would of course be Saved by the Bell, show #2 would be NYPD Blue. This is sad regardless of who it is, but I would hate for this to be him:(

    ReplyDelete
  41. Doesn't say anything about driving... that's why I threw Shia in there. Chicago Walgreens incident for the drunken arrest.

    ReplyDelete
  42. Should I not be excited to think that David Cassidy might soon be single?

    I think I love you...

  43. David Caruso, CSI Miami

    Girls thought one-liners were... Intoxicating. (YEEEEAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH)

    Ok I'm done for today. Promise.

  44. Mark-Paul Gosselear (sp) is married and they had a baby about six months ago. It said girlfriend not wife so I think that knocks him out of the running

  45. How about Ben Mackenzie? OC and then Southland on cable. Dating Shelley Henning as of/in September of last year (yes, I had to google this. She is an actress.).

    1. Then again I would never call him A list, but I wouldn't call Fassy B list either.

    1. I know, but at the time people carried on like he was the second coming of Russell Crowe, back when Crowe was hot stuff. Can't think of another teen idol who fits the profile.

  48. teen in what decade would be a help....

  49. I think Gosselaar is married. My guess is Jason Priestley, just about every teenage girl worshipped him in the mid-90s. He's had problems with drinking and was busted for DUI some years ago. No idea if he has an actress girlfriend, though.

  50. I don't…what the what?

  51. Josh Jackson's arrest was when he was a kid and got in a fight at a hockey game, trying to protect a friend who was attacked. He also happened to be drinking, as people do when they're at hockey games. Turned into a drunk and disorderly.

    He's a typical Canadian beer drinking guy, you definitely couldn't describe him as someone who "got sober" after his arrest (since he never had a problem).

  52. @Dingle Barry: The Professor from Gilligan's Island died earlier this year.

  53. I think this is Joshua Jackson (Dawsons Creek a list then Fringe cable hit show)...?

    But I do love me some Pacey...
