AFTER shooting to fame as Wisteria Lane’s randiest gardener, Jesse Metcalfe is hot TV property.

He is now playing the good guy in new US marshal drama Chase, which can be seen on Sky Living, and will be seen in the return of Dallas next year.

“There is definitely more to me than my physical appearance,” he insists. “But I have to embrace it. It’s not the worst thing in the world, having that sex symbol status.

“You need to have a bit of a sense of humour about yourself, though – I get asked to take my top off on a daily basis.”

So what do his fans actually say, and is he ever tempted? Continue reading Jesse Metcalfe interview with Mirror UK + Josh Baskin Photoshoot

Brenda Strong, while attending ABC’s Television Critics Association bash at the Beverly Hilton on Sunday night, commented on Jesse’s performance in the Pilot for his upcoming TNT show “Dallas.”

“He’s my new son-in-law and I have to say, Jesse really showed up for the pilot,” she told Access Hollywood. “His acting has gotten so incredibly detailed and rich and I think people are gonna be surprised about how good he is in this.”

South Fork, Texas, the central location for “Dallas,” is a departure for Jesse, who spent Season 1 of “DH” as Gabrielle Solis’ sexy gardener-turned-lover and it’s also a big change for Brenda who played the heard, but not often seen, late Mary Alice Young in “DH.”
