Expertise

My main area of expertise is the character of Admiral A. J. Chegwidden portrayed by actor John M. Jackson. I created and maintain "The Admiral Fact Book," which covers all information known about the Admiral so far from the show. However, I have watched JAG since the first episode and been involved in on-line JAG Fandom for several years and believe I can answer most general questions about the show.

Experience in the area

I run the John M. Jackson Admiration Society, the unofficial fan club of actor John M. Jackson, and maintain its website. I also was involved in putting on the first ever JAG Convention and then went on to found the JAGFanFest - both west and east coast events. I have met almost all the actors as well as many of the writers, directors, and production staff. I occasionally write JAG fanfic, and I am the editor of The Jackson Journal, the on-line newsletter of the JMJAS.

What do you like about this subject?

JAG is an excellent show combining courtroom drama with action, adventure, comedy, and human elements. Many episodes are based on current events.

2010-10-18 Is there plans for a reunion show?:

Hi Kevin,    You're right; a lot of fans would love to see a JAG movie letting us know what's happened to the gang over the past few years.  But if there are any plans for such a show, it's the best kept

2010-06-20 The Ending:

Hi Esther,    I believe the producers ended the show as they did to try to appeal to the broadest possible audience.  While many viewers wanted to see Harm and Mac get married and live happily ever after

2010-04-12 Harm & Mac:

Hi Frank,    Well, I was one who liked the Mac/Webb relationship, so you may not like my answer.  :)  To address the first part of it, even though Harm and Mac had both admitted that they loved the other

2009-12-14 John M. Jackson:

Hi Buddy,    All of John's fans agree with you that it would have been so incredible if the Admiral had walked in to do the coin flip.  But I have never heard any explanation as to why that didn't happen
