What an incredible show and what a stupid move by ABC, cancelling what should have been their progamming crown jewel.  Jeff was fabulous as Michael.  Such beautiful, subtle anguish from "the black sheep" trying to find his way home.  Not at all a black and white character, and all the more human because of it.  Jeff plays a great bad guy.  But if you want a character who can truly express the human condition, Jeff is your man.  That is why Dodger and Daedalus were so popular.  Too bad casting doesn't seem to understand that very often. -- songbird
