EW Reunion: ‘Northern Exposure’ - 15 years after leaving Cicely, Alaska, Rob Morrow, 48, and Janine Turner, 47, joined EW (and a stuffed moose) for a nostalgic chat. By Jace Brittain, Oct 15, 2010.
EW: When did you two first meet?
Rob Morrow: The day of the audition. It was just me and all the girls. When Janine came into the room, it was so clear that she was Maggie. She pulled a chair up and was sitting on it backwards.
Janine Turner The producer said, “You look too pretty to be a pilot!”
Rob Morrow: After the audition, we get in the elevator. We’re riding up, and I turn to her and say, “It’s just you and me, ya know.” And she blew me off. Later, she told me she thought I was hitting on her.EW: What are your favorite moments from the show?
Rob Morrow: Well, we had some good kisses.
Janine Turner: My favorite is the one in the kitchen where we knock all the pots and pans down.
Rob Morrow: But it hurt!… I love the ending. It had one of the great resolutions of a television series. It was so beautifully mythic. I’m walking into the mist, and then it cuts to me on the ferry in New York.
Janine Turner: Like Barbra Streisand in Funny Girl.Joel Fleischman (Rob Morrow) and Maggie O’Connell (Janine Turner) (Northern Exposure, 1990-95)
