Getting
To Know You
Ever
wonder whether BOLD AND BEAUTIFUL’s Eric Forrester watches SEINFELD or JERRY
SPRINGER? Okay, maybe we’ll never know. But Eric’s portrayer, John McCook,
was willing to ‘fess up!
American
Or Swiss:
Swiss. There’s not as much cheese with the holes.
Crinkele-cut
Or Shoestring Potatoes:
Shoestring, just because I’m used
to the skinny guys.
Rosie
Or Oprah:
Oprah. I love Rosie, but I still want my Oprah.
Regis
Or Kathie Lee:
Regis - no question about it.
White
Or Dark Meat:
White meat, and give me lots of skin, baby.
McDonald’s
Or Spago:
McDonald’s. I love their chicken sandwiches every time.
JEOPARDY
Or WHEEL OF FORTUNE:
JEOPARDY. It’s so hard that I’m glad to get any of the answers right.
Jerry
Seinfeld Or Jerry Springer:
Seinfeld. I refuse to watch Springer’s show; I just can’t abide it.
Song
Or Dance:
Song, because I love to sing. But I do love to watch dance - from ballet to tap.
I’ve worked with a lot of dancers, and I have great respect for them as
athletes, as well as artists.
Boxers
Or Briefs:
Boxers [laughs]. And that’s all
I’m going to say!
Musicals
Or Dramas:
Dramas: I don’t like to watch musicals because I’d rather be doing them than
watching them.
See
America Or See Europe:
Europe. It’s pretty incredible when you can go sit in a pub that’s 400 year
old.
THE
MUNSTERS Or THE ADDAMS FAMILY: THE
ADDAMS FAMILY. But only the TV series - I never saw the movies.
AM
Or FM:
FM. I have my two classical stations and a jazz station set on the car radio.
Snap,
Crackle Or Pop:
I never want to see any of those guys again.
Snow
White Or Cinderella:
Oh, Cinderella. It’s not as dark a story as Snow White. I love the spirit of
the Cinderella story, and Cinderella looks more like Laurette [McCook’s wife].
Making
Dinner Or Making Reservations:
I love to make dinner. I’m not a big restaurant guy. I make the meatloaf at
home. I also make the best mashed potatoes ... because I put sour cream in them.
Ginger
Or Mary Ann:
Are those hurricanes [laughs]? I prefer Lovely - Thurston Howell’s wife.
Sunrises
Or Sunsets:
I see sunsets all the time, so I love sunrises when I’m up early enough for
them.
Forgive
Or Forget:
I’m not very good at forgiving, so I have no choice but to forget.
