3,000 miles" and portraying
a young doctor in love.
Dr. Fleishman should be
wary, too, given Maggie's
mythic, but fortunately fic-
tional, mania for falling for
guys who soon fall off the
face of the earth.
The heat gets turned up a
notch between the Turner
and Morrow characters next
season, says Mr. Morrow, as
heralded by last season's
climactic steamy embrace on
he occasion of Alaska's fabl-
ed spring thaw.
As a reluctant medical
hero, Dr. Fleishman fits into
the Hollywood scheme of
things these days, given the
popularity of such film
charac- ters as The Doctor
and Doc Hollywood.
A real physician proved
inspiration for Mr. Morrow:
Herman Tarnower, the
Scarsdale Diet doctor, was a
friend of his mom's, says Rob
Morrow of his childhood
days.
Dr. Tarnower, who years
later would be the victim in
a highly publicized murder
case, "showed a great inter-
est in me. I was an unfocused
kid, and he had faith in me
and gave me a lot of con-
fidence."
Critics are confident that
"Exposure" will continue its
Monday-night dominance
based on scripts brimming
with quality and quirkiness.
Mr. Morrow also has con-
fidence —although it doesn't
necessarily extend to his golf
game. Since his TV
character takes to the greens
with a certain relish, Mr.
Morrow thought he would
take up the game, too.
"I've been taking some
lessons," he says with a
chuckle. "But it's not that
serious where I'm keeping
score."
Mr. Morrow is hoping to
score with a short film he
wrote and directed this
summer: The Silent
Alarm focuses on a youngster
"whose home is invaded by a
man who sells alarms. It
spirals into this whole child-
abuse thing. It comes from
something I heard about."
What Mr. Morrow is hear-
ing these days is the call of
the wild. It is back to Roslyn
for more shooting with co-
stars Barry Corbin, John
Cullum, Darren E. Burrows,
John Corbett, Cynthia
Geary, Elaine Miles, Grant
Goodeve, Turner — and a
moose named Morty.
Of moose and man? It
doesn't take a brain surgeon
— or even a G.P. of the
backwoods — to explain the
national success of
"Northern Exposure."
"It hums from the heart,"
says Rob Morrow. 0
