Fixing split rail fence. Im out there doing the. Weeding of that i do this this beautiful ive spent about a week building this beautiful white oak desk to get the very desk and move up and down ok im going to order one of those maybe i can make it i guess most of the round here in the barn. By the way john you can but also with the very house get a very chair the moves in tandem with the desk so youre always seated no matter what happens now what your day to day like to get up at 6 in the morning youre out in the fields your.

And then im going to out all through them all for a little bit give the ones a little exercise then ill start Walking Around seeing what i got to do and since we had so much rain here its a ton of weeding i get out we have about 10 acres i guess Something Like that. I get on at that lot im over about 2 times a week 2 hours im on that thing doing all the yard in there in the fields i mean its you know theres no we really dont have any help we have a pool weve got a great who you know fiftys on the pool guy i stay on top of that we dont have really one person that comes in and helps us do thing i didnt do it all you know all the women on the grapevine who said aidens on that in smaller class one that i am turn again they tune in and youve got that c. P. A. Suit coat on from the sixtys and youre talking about weeding and driving your mower around all day its quite a. Quick to differ from what way they were perceiving you before they. Lets talk more than exposure johnnie because when i look back on that show very infrequently to somebody change the meter and the mill you werent so corky remember 30 something had some 5 like that you know show didnt come around periodically they just sort of break the template what are your memories of getting northern exposure when it becomes mega hot tell me about the run my friend. Life changing i was the one in the auditions who had 0 on their i did one up so the wonder years in 1988 little guest star nothing else on the resume and this is 2 years later i was really close to giving up acting because nothing was happening and you know you have to make a living and i was about 27 years old i guess and i and i did a jack in the box commercial and somebody from universal saw me on it called me in and for callbacks later i was on a plane i was living in interleukin lake a little apartment i was on a plane to seattle to live for the next 14 years i mean it really that one audition changed my life we we got up there they put us in these little boat. You know houses with you know dishes and forks and knives for the 1st season so we all lived together through a fish and sea apartment and we really got to bond and know each other robin morrow jean turner ameri corps Bennett John Cullen well i mean were literally next door to each other and. And were all of you know none of us knew seattles who were all of any outskirts of seattle about 45 minutes outside of the city and it was just a great where are our studios in an old shoe warehouse that they converted and nobody knew what this thing was you know we were trying to figure out i think the 3rd episode and we kind of realized it was a it was a dark comedy you know he cuz. It was just so weird and quirky but raw market was playing this doctor so straight and nobody was really going for laps it was just it was. When people responded the way they did it sort of blew it so hey you know people liked it as much as we certainly do because i happens in this business now i know it happens that you do things you do pilots that you love and just think everyones going to love and its just thumbs down so you know its very cool for a goalie yeah headquarters the rhythms and i always thought of you at what i see the office and i watched the great comedy actor and seems like a cool guy john is his name presence here because in ski that cat you were sort of the that guy. Time because you always came off with such a a cool manner when i used to watch the show heres the thing i want to get this cats like you seem so cool and it was a huge hit but i think it burned pretty brightly but not for it wasnt a it was a gunsmoke run was it johnny how long. We had 5 i think with 5 seasons but to the seasons really episodes each and the other 2 were probably 20 episodes so. You know a prado know maybe under 100 shows but heres the reason why youll never see it again because of the music the music. There is so much music in these shows they cant afford to play it now because they have to pay so much you know in those royalties even the videos they put the videos out and they just put all stock music on was turned ruined the show because part of it another character like the 5th beatle was the music that they that they picked for this show is fantastic and thats why you know he was no time how come we dont see in reruns thats the main reason thats one thing about Hollywood Ascap all those things they keep tabs that if you wrote it youre getting paid somewhere along the way even if it was 20 years ago lets take it over to the you must think i dont know what happens after that solver but maybe or think i dont know do i get a big Plate Appearance again and then an even bigger thing comes like sex in the city absolutely huge yeah so the exposure ends in 95 then about 5 years past and nothing really happens i do want to do pretty bad t. V. Movies and im still living in seattle some way from the business and you know get a little older i guess maybe 36 or so now and. I get an offer to come to new york and be on the show with Sarah Jessica parker who i liked. From watching as an actress but i dont like the show they sent me a couple those be ok sets and you know its all the jokes and this is not something that i was into i know its on the air and people are liking it but i didnt like it so i said no. I wasnt interested. In being part of because my mom at that time was everything i do that it was slightly embarrassing and i had to be naked in the 1st episode and i just passed and they said fine but then we claytor they said look sir just you wanted to come to. See her just going to come new york just she just wants you to meet or take a trip to new york its a free trip 1st class on them so thats what i get i have some friends in new york i said ok ill go do that and i showed up at her house and she was with Michael Patrick king and i believe derren star was there down in the village and he talked me into it because she was so charming and it was it would have been one of my biggest regrets if i said no to that thing so it just it was a pleasure man it was so much fun to be in new york and now im on this show that is not about the you know the outback and i couldnt be here for you know i went from a to z. And now im just you know in the greatest city of all of them on the greatest show at that time thats 2000 that you could you know talk about saturday nights must watch it was crazy you went from aden and i tell you what it was a good move for your brand john because i remember one time we were up in twin falls member we were escaping that forest fire and we did. 20 falls and we stopped at a sonic i remember we went into the counter and theres like 5 young ladies workaday you know just gals bit gals of all of a sudden all you hear from the back is. I just remember thinking boy that is a role thats going to stick with him for a long time and yet was providence attended ive taken it thank god sarah was so charming out so charming i got a free milk shake out at sonic 2 i remember chocolat. I love her pastor. That that girl is what he if you want to talk about. Entertainment tonight and behind the scenes in whos got egos and who doesnt whos a diva she is a working hero of mine that chick on that show was 1st there in the morning after work and we all at home should go to a studio and do you know she she did monologues voiceover over all those episodes i mean she worked so hard she ate lunch with the crew every day which is unheard of for you know if you were going to movie theres a big star there say like Tommy Lee Jones youll never see that do have a lunch with 100 people she was just the greatest. Well listen nerf raid that tommy lays and that the crew table because people might think the caterers brought in dodger dogs for lives you never know. Lets take some social Media Questions jay burt we got a bunch of them on we said you were coming on. On facebook as i cant predict this answer because sometimes the biggest thing to you is not the biggest thing whats your favorite role over the course of your career its a role nobody ever saw me do i did a little play its a Reader Community college called heres this little impulse when i was just figuring out all about this acting and we probably played it you know 25 times for 200 people and it was just a great great play ive never been able to im never been able to grab. Out of the ether those feelings that i felt when i did that play from from any role but if i had to name one that has been filmed it would definitely be the movie tombstone even though i have 3 or 4 lines in that movie i got to spend 4 months out in arizona with bill paxton who became such a good friend and carranza like you over most of the movie and sam elliot Jason Priestley thomas a church i mean just it was we were 4 months in 1992 the summer of. 1902 in a holiday and in tucson arizona and it was the man show. Who is in the show and a couple other girls but it was holiday and bar after filming every night and it was probably like.
