Tom Selleck

Post post edit: Darn! I was trying to, in my head, go through current "long running" drama series with a lead male who could fill that role. All I could think of was Tom, but knowing he had a ongoing relationship role on Friends, plus Magnum P.I. was running the same or near the same as Moonlighting, I knew he probably wasn't right. I just couldn't think of anyone else. The sad thing is, I actually watched NCIS for the first time in months last night.

Don't tempt me.

Fortunately, question five only asks for one answer. The parenthetical aside, perhaps poorly written, is strictly informational.
