JAG fans, you can stop wondering what happened to David James Elliot. He’s headed to the CBS drama Close to Home this fall as a series regular, according to TV Guide.
And in what could be labeled as typecasting, he’ll play a charming lawyer/district attorney. This news is bittersweet for me. I loved JAG and am a huge fan of Elliot’s, but I was hoping he’d land a gig on one of the many shows I already watch i.e. Grey’s Anatomy, Desperate Housewives, Boston Legal. Unfortunately, this news means I’ll have to put Close to Home on my DVR, despite the fact that I hate case-of-the-week plot-driven shows. I’ve never been a fan of Close to Home, but I watched sporadically last season hoping Christian Kane would get more than two minutes of screen time and perhaps get to bust out his guitar. As it turned out, a drunk driver killed his character in the finale. And no, he didn’t have an “evil hand.” (If you didn’t get that joke, you missed Kane’s awesome performance on Angel and we can no longer be friends.)

I, also, will have to add Close to Home to my schedule. I am not a fan of the show, and did not plan to watch it at all next season since they killed off Christian, however I cannot miss a chance to see David James Elliott again!
Dude!! How can you not love Close to Home? It's my favorite show!! Jennifer Finnigan, Kimberly Elise? These are great actresses!! And, I know you all will hate me for this, but I didn't even know who David James Elliot was until I went on-line and saw that he'd be on CTH's second season. Oh well, I just can't wait till September 22nd on the season 2 premiere of Close to Home.
Caitlin, I forgive you. I agree that Jennifer F is AMAZING. She used to be on ATWT, and Kim rocks, too. But it's the plot-of-the-week formula that drives me nuts. I prefer character-driven shows. Who knows, with the addition of DJE, maybe it'll turn into that.
Any thing David James Elliott is in I watch - Close to Home is now on my "to do" list for Friday's.....
