nyzombie — Fri, 16 May 2008 02:49:56 GMT

Grey’s Anatomy has McDreamy and McSteamy, but only ER has McSexy! That’s the Mc-nickname the cast and crew has given John Stamos on the long-running NBC medical drama. “I have been called Dr. McSexy,” the actor tells Parade.com. “It’s a tough job but somebody has to do it. And who wouldn’t want to get passionate with Linda Cardellini?” And while shooting love scenes may be awkward, getting it on with various leading ladies on the show is much easier than memorizing and spouting off medical jargon. “[On] Full House…I had lines like, ‘Michelle, say poo poo.’ So when I first came on ER, I was like, ‘What if my...

Dennis Quaid Campaigns For Patients' Rights!

nyzombie — Thu, 15 May 2008 21:44:47 GMT

Dennis Quaid is calling on the U.S. government to preserve patients’ rights to sue drugmakers for injuries. The actor’s twin babies had to fight for their lives last year when they were mistakenly given a near-fatal overdose of blood thinner Heparin, and Quaid insists the mishap could have been avoided if there was a better system of marking medicines.

Quaid and his wife Kimberly Buffington have sued Baxter...
