Subject: The O'Connell Brothers
Written By: AngeFaitore on 01/08/05 at 6:49 pm
Oh man... at the ripe age of almost 20 (turning 20 next Sunday), this makes me feel old.
Does anyone remember in the late 1990s when Jerry O'Connell and his brother Charlie were really popular (This is when Sliders and the Sci-Fi Channel US were at their peak)?
I feel like I've missed the boat because all the good fansites about the brothers are LONG GONE. I have trouble getting any images from the site archives on the Wayback Machine, too.
I wish I could go back to 1997...

Yeah, Jerry's a cool actor. Do you watch him on "Crossing Jordan"? I don't know what Charlie's doing now, I think when they left Sliders it pretty much condemned the series. Ironic how the one characer that was never supposed to go on the trip in the first place was the only one who came home intact, Rembrandt! OTOH, I'd like to see a Sliders movie, maybe Quinn(the real one, Jerry!), Rembrandt & Maggie head back out to find Wade, Colin & The Professor(I still don't think the real one is dead)! Any thoughts?
Your Pal,
Doc

I'm not a big fan of Crossing Jordan, but I've been looking for the episode 'Sunset Division' in re-runs on A&E because Charlie is in it (I like Jerry's brother a little more than Jerry ::) ).
Next month SciFi Channel will show C'OC's TV movie Death By Magic, so that will be cool.
The last time that C'OC has been seen is on the show Viva La Bam and from the screengrab I've seen, he's looking pretty shaggy with a bad beard and long hair.

Well, I do, just a little bit.
I mean, a few years ago Thomas Haden Church was pretty much unknown except for his sitcoms and George of the Jungle. Now all of a sudden he's slowly becoming a celebrity because of Sideways (Which I really feel kind of sad about. I miss the THC indie film days.).
Oh well. Time must move on.

I remember Jerry playing the cheating boyfriend in Mariah Carey's 'Heartbreaker' video - that scene at the end when she pours soda over him was hysterical. ;D

Wasn't he dating her then?
I think he's dated just about every single 20-40 something woman in Hollywood. He's a notorious serial dater.

Everybody gets confused about that because on Sliders Jerry's character Quinn was the younger brother and Charlie's character Colin was the older one.
In real life, Jerry is the older brother and Charlie is the younger one. I believe that Jerry is 31 and Charlie is 30 because they were born a year apart.
