I cant express enough how happy I am for this man!!! Love to you JR (BROTT). Does anyone rember when Brott first went on AMC paired with Taylor (Beth Ehlers). She made a stink because in the words-- I love JR BUT - "he's not an actor". Never saw her since. He is the best.

Professionally, he wasn't, but he turned out to have a talent for it. And suddenly he's becoming really famous!

He is gifted, talented and wears his courage in the best possible manner: Acknowledging what he has been through, taking it and making it work for him as opposed to lamenting it.
