In case you ever wondered who's voice you were hearing during the introduction to each episode of this tv show, it was that of Charles Durning. The actual intro wording is what we've used as the series description above. Also, the sketch shown during the introduction was Leonardo Da Vinci's "Vetruvian Man".
Before Now and Again, Eric Close was probably best known for his portrayals of "Sawyer Walker" on the daytime drama "Santa Barbara", "Brick McKenna" on the tv show "McKenna" and "Billy Griffin" on the program "Sisters".
