I mean, he's an incredibly handsome actor, but he's obviously struggling and unwell and not communicating in exactly the same cadence he might normally.
But he is very clear-minded and it was powerful.
And I thought that he just seemed...
I was like, oh, this is how I would, if I was him, like want your kids to remember you.
And he gives them sort of five, I think it was three or five things to live by.
And one thing that he said was he really wants them to fight.
He wants his two daughters to fight.
He talks about how much he's fought with this illness, how happy he still is in spite of being very sick and that he felt like he had been knocked down many times in life and he continued to get up and that that was his superpower was his resilience.
And I was like, man, every single person could hear this message right now and take something from it.
Kind of, and just really that like, you know, everything in life is not going to always be easy.
You may have disappointments in your personal life.
You know, he was divorced.
You may have disappointments in your professional life.
I think every actor in Hollywood has no shortage of those.
You may receive a devastating diagnosis like he did when he was told he had ALS.
But I think the fact that he said, you know, I still love my life.
I'm a happy person and I want you guys to be happy.
Like that's such a nice gift to give to your kids at a very sad time in their lives and this sort of troubling transition.
And I just thought this is a rare, this might be a rare moment where television is doing something good for humanity.
Not everyone's going to want to watch this.
