Opportunity
Twentieth Century Fox wanted to sign Selleck after all the attention he was generating and their talent department was particular about him not signing any other show. And Selleck, well he was no fool either, he grabbed this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity immediately and showed up at the training class the very next day. Quite a smart move!
Soap Opera Kid
Next, on the hit soap opera The Young and the Restless, he took a minor role as Jed Andrews. Perhaps his role followed him to the real world as well cause all of those love triangles he played out in the show seemed to mirror him in real life. That’s some serious foreshadowing!
