By MsJeri, Apr 28, 2012

I started watching Cold Case a few years ago, but since Cold Case is on ION TV now, I watch it a lot more often. They had John Finn on a lot this one time & I really started noticing him. He's pretty good sized & has the nicest smile & eyes. He seems to be very gentlemanly & sweet. Does anyone know if he is married? If so, how long long, children? I would like to send him an e-mail; address/???moreless

Makes his character look real

By JPPT1974, Jun 08, 2006

I agree with the reviewer underneath as John Finn makes

His character look real as well as likable at the

Same time. His Lt Stillman is like a father figure to

The Cold Case team. Gruff and strict but also sensitive and fair to everybody.

Great actor and hope to see him on for many more years!
