I can understand your emotional attachment. I probably would be much more attached than I am if I had those experiences. I will say, that I am slowly getting there. During an incident on SS folks were really bashing Seth. I stepped in and began trying to calm it, while supporting Seth. He e-mailed me to thank me and we had a wonderful conversation. Since then I e-mail him on occasion, with a question, or simply feedback as to how I am enjoying the show, or something like that. He always writes back and he always answers my questions. We have had a few good laughs and I love his sense of humor. Because of his responsiveness and willingness to discuss things, I find that I am becoming much more invested in this show.

I came to Andromeda because of Kevin. That's the main reason and I still like him. Once I heard Keith would be on I was thrilled. I watched him on All My Children and simply loved him. Since then I have found I truely admire the entire cast. I am still not as emotionally involved as some, but I can certainly understand how folks can get that way when they have had the joy of meeting so many involved with the show. My small involvement with Seth on e-mail has opened up things for me, I can only imagine how I might feel if I had the more personal attachements.
