I thought my brain being bad or something. > I was flipping channels a couple of weeks back and caught a few minutes of a sitcom that featured the actor who played Alex up until the new season began this week. A search on IMDB reveals that the show was "Rodney", which I've never seen before or since. I don't know if it is still on; perhaps the actor was busy filming Rodney when they needed him for ER so they recast him. If Rodney has been cancelled since, we may find that the original Alex returns and that the new Alex was just a temp ;-) Offhand, I don't much care either way. Rhino .
