DishDiva : If you’re a fan of Charmed, then by now you know that Cole is definitely not the harmless District Attorney who Phoebe (Alyssa Milano) likes. He’s more of a rough kind of guy. Actually, he’s pretty much as demonic as it gets. Julian, thanks for joining us tonight!

Julian : Thank you very much for having me!

DishDiva : Tell us about tonight’s episode.

Julian : Tonight’s episode is sort of a follow-up from last week. It’s an introduction of a new demon that I bring and to help me conquer the witches.

DishDiva : Aqua_Angle : How did you get the Role on Charmed?

Julian : I finished my work on “Profiler” after the 4th season in May and about a month and a half after that I went and met the executive producers of “Charmed” that had done some work on my previous show.

DishDiva : Guest_CharmedPhoebe Says: hi! I luv charmed, can you tell me what’s in store for his relationship with phoebe ?

Julian : This relationship is pretty hot-to-trot.

DishDiva : Piperfan13 Says: Julian you do a great job on charmed! I have a few questions. What is it like to work with Holly, Shannon Ect?

Julian : For me it’s been a wonderful experience. Everyone has been very sweet and supportive. It’s a very talented cast.

DishDiva : Sammy Ask: What other projects are you working on now ?

Julian : At the moment I’m swamped with “Charmed” and that’s all I have time to do. Although I do have a new movie coming out soon with Jeff Daniels “Chasing Sleep.”

DishDiva : Riveting_Rahul Says: Are you pleased in the direction Charmed is going?

Julian : I’m very happy with the show and where it is at this moment. It’s very exciting and something great to be involved in. The story line is exciting to see where it goes week by week.

DishDiva : Shannen_D Says: Congratulations on your new baby, has this been a big turn around in your life?

Julian : Extraordinary turn-around. Everyone can tell you a million things but you never understand until you have your own. It’s a beautiful thing. She’s 5 months now.

DishDiva : Guest_Pheebs Says: Does your character, Cole, turn good at all? just a hint….?

Julian : (laugh) Yes, of course, just a hint.

Julian : Are you at work right now?

DishDiva : Mrs_Trippers Says: When was our biggest brake in Acting?

Julian : I think my biggest break was my job on “Another World.” It gave me access to the American market.

Julian: You’ll have to keep watching to find out.

DishDiva : sk8rbabe663 Says: do you believe in witches?

Julian : Sure.

DishDiva : Zippy Says: How much input do the actors have in their character’s developing story lines or plots?

Julian : It’s a very creatively run show. And everybody has input of their own thoughts.

DishDiva : Smell Ask: Did you research witchcraft and the supernatural/occult?

Julian : I can’t understand the question over the fumes. (laugh)

DishDiva : andros_di_milano Says: Julian, you’re great on Charmed. What is you favorite episode?

Julian : So far I’d have to say episode 3 because I loved the wardrobe and accessories when I stepped back in time to the beginning of the 16th century. Although I must say, I’ve enjoyed them all.

DishDiva : charmedfanbr Says: OK, my question is: We all already know the “future” of the demons on Charmed… Do you guess that your character will have the same destiny ??

DishDiva : NetseyCarol Says: So do you ever surf the net?

Julian : All the time! On MSN mind you, true! I go anywhere and everywhere. That’s what’s so good about it.

DishDiva : Phoebs Says: Was leaving Profiler hard for you? Do you ever miss your co-stars over there?

Julian : I do e-mail my sister, my mom is computer illiterate. I want to buy my mother a computer, but she’s one of those people you have to ask before you buy a gift for. (laugh) Yes, I miss it a lot. It was great fun.

DishDiva : _ByronL_ Says: My Question is this , as far as acting goes where do you see yourself say in 5 years?

DishDiva : andros_di_milano Says: If you could have a power in real life, which power would you choose between: Telekinesis, temporal stasis (freeze time) or premonitions?
