Did you know that he has two children?

http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000530/bio

I didn't know. Good for him and his wife. I guess their marriage is going very well, despite the gossip.
What do you think?

Two kids? Gossip?
Permalink   


I've never heard any "gossip" pertaining to either Andrew or his marriage to Carol. 

And as far as what IMDb says, I'd take anything from that site with a grain of salt.  IMDb is very much like Wikipedia, meaning someone...anyone...can post darn near anything as an "official" bio.  Those bios aren't written by anyone affiliated with that website, they're submitted by everyday, plain-Jane users liek you and I.

As far as the "2 kids" thing goes, until it comes "from the horse's mouth", I shall maintain the belief that there is only 1 child, his son Sam.  That's still what www.andrewmccarthy.com states, so that's what I'll go with for now.  If he has had another child, and cares to share that info, we'll hear about it  hmm.gif


My two-cents' worth on the subject, anyway

SnerfyPoo,
About gossip, go to the topic "new wife? again", posted by Mikako and there you will find someone called Angela who had posted some about his marriage.

But, it's not matter and I think IMDB is believable.
And IMDB every time has a recent events about films, actors and events and the Mccarthy"s official web site, unfortunately, is totally outdated.

No need to get hostile...you did ask what everyone thought, right? confused

Believe IMDb if you will, but it's about 25% fact, 75% fiction.  And, like I said, as for myself, I'll believe the total child count when it's confirmed by Mr. McCarthy.  Until then...it's gossip. 

I don't believe that webpage anymore than I believe Wiki.  I could go in right now and add something completely made-up, and I guarantee you they'd add it as a "fact" in less than 1 week.

As for the other post, I really tend to shy away from anything gossipy or other such infallible knowledge.  I don't really care to read it, but thanks anyway...I think.   thumbsdown.gif

SnerfyPoo,

Sorry, I didn't want be hostile.
To me is so dificult to express my feelings with words, because I don't speak and write English very well.
I guess the Andrew's web site don't have the deserve attention and haven't recent facts. But, what we can do? Anything, just complain or regret.
And I have putted that information for share with you.

I really apologise if I was hostile with you.

Hi Alice. Donj't worry I am sure Snerfypoo isn't upset with you. One thing about the Imb they do have a secton where they ask if you have information and want to update it you can. Of ccourse that means avyone and everybody adds to it. the only thing that I like it for is becasue it is usually accurate on the films. Only on occasion they are wrong. I was wondering if they use some sort of search that picks up his name when he stars in a film?

I do hope Andrew updates his website.  It is a fine place to get accurate information and I would hate to see anything happen to it. Of course the photos on there are great too. biggrin

Oh, pffft....how could I be angry with a fellow Andrew fan?  I just sensed that maybe you thought I was somehow criticizing you instead of IMDb, which is in actuality what I was doing.  I just know how rumors have begun by individuals posting things as fact or correcting/adding things to the unofficial IMDb bios, only to turn out ugly in the end. Just didn't want you getting upset at ol' Snerfy when I sure wasn't trying to offend you in any way tears.gif

What I was actually saying is, just keep an open mind and a sharp eye when dealing with IMDb and Wiki, as they're too easily accessed by the public (and information altered).  I know Andrew doesn't update as much as he should (probably busy knocking out a few new projects...yay!!)  If indeed he did have another lil' rugrat, I congratulate him! aww

I just didn't want you to get upset at me for posting my opinion, that's all.  I think your english is fine, I can understand you quite well, m'dear!  If you don't mind, where are you from?  Your command of the language is such that I'm taken aback by the knowledge that you're from elsewhere!  smile

Hey Snerfy-I really laughed when you let your short fuse show. I did the same thing when the very first gossipy item appeared.If you go back a ways on this column you will see that I immediately jumped in and scollded whoever it was. Said this column is for news and chatter about Andrew not gossip. Someone I didn't recognize put the item in and it ticked me off. Of course Mary as usual came in to sooth everyone and try to keep it smooth. She is doing it again for you .
Actually I totally agree with you. I have seen stuff that was not at all tru about movies I have actu.lly seen.
It's all because we really care so much about Andrew and Carol and of course Sam.
Andrew could really help if he would only update his site. I wonder if he realizes it has been over a year since we actually heard from him. We don't expect personal news but we hear (mostly from overseas) about all these movies and the NBC pilot  and see photos and wonder how much is true. I am glad of course that he is working but do think he could take five minutes to write his faithful fans. 
C'mon Andrew - remember us?hmm                                                                                 . . . I

"Snerfy's Short Fuse"...sounds like a little story one might read their child before bed, hehe

Yeah, gossip is a huge 'pet peeve' of mine, and even the hint of it usually riles me.  I've been trying to come to grips with the fact that the internet is rife with it and that's just something I'll have to deal with.  I'm sure the OP wasn't intending to be gossipy, but it just "hit" me the wrong way shrug.gif


Mary should work for NATO as a peacekeeper wink I bet she'd look smashing in blue smile

Of course, I blame Andrew for all of this...a site update is in order, mister biggrin (just joking here, ladies...please don't kill me!)

SnerfyPoo,

I really thought the information, in the IMDB, was accurate. I suppose the source of this information was from agents or the actors, not of someone who want to put there.
I dont like gossips. But, sometimes I would like to have more news about Andrew and his job and try to find.
But, I will take care about the things I read.
SnerfyPoo, Im brazilian and live in São Paulo, Brazil.
Thanks for understand me.

 

Mary you are very diplomatic.

Thank you Alice. I try to do my best but I have my faults too. smile As far as Nato is goes I think the best I could do there is hold up a sign that says make love not war. Or was that President Clinton's Motto?

OMG you ladies had me rolling when I read this through!!! I'm so glad I checked in...lol. It's funny you should mention Andrew's website. I have never clicked the send an e-mail to Andrew button until a few days ago. I mentioned in that e-mail (admist the adorations and compliments) that  his fans would love to see the site updated and the filmography complete. I'm sure he's very busy.....

IMDB does have some very good information if you stick to the facts, I'd rather not pull my truths from an editable webpage.

Snerfy, Mary, and Peggy thanks for the chuckle.

This was indeed a very entertaining thread!  I was LMAO myself, hehe...very reminiscent of IMDb board threads.

Snerf's right though...it's pretty simple to change things on IMDb's "fact" page.

I just go there to chitty-chat on the boards  aww

Snerfy says: But...but...I'm not a lady no.gif *sheepishly looks down at shoes*

But not to worry...no offense taken! I guess I should say "thanks for the compliment"...I've always viewed women as much more intelligent than my group wink

Snerfy-Why are you looking down at your shoes? I have thought all along that you were not a girl. You don't write like a girl. Your prose is so interesting and clever. Actually, to me, you write like a writer and a good one. You obviously recognize fine acting and are an AM fan. That is what counts here.
Girls-don't get me wrong. Of course you are all great writers also
smileaww.gif

Peggy how did you know he was male? After I read your post I wondered how could I have missed that. So I went back and read many posts by Snerfypoo and still couldn't find the clues. Please tell me your trick....You also mentioned Snerfy is a good writer. Thank you for enlightening, because I missed that one too. Then when I read his posts again I realized how right you are! I'm glad your comments made me recheck.

Snerfy, your writing is very good. It carries a personality with it. The best way I can describe is in the way a great Sunday newspaper comic comes to life, multidimentional. I really enjoy your posts, sorry I am so clueless....blankstare 
Do you have others on the web? Perhaps a blog?

Thanks girls and boys- I look forward to reading more...this is always fun and interesting!

Don't know how to answer your questions Tyais. Intuition maybe? Am a detail person.Really read the messages as I really live the films. Maybe you could call me a "Nuance Noticer"-ha.That is how I  found Andrew four years ago in the original film SFTH. Was intrigued hhow  he seemed to look like a different person in almost every scene. Don't for get I am older than most of his fans and Mary and Andrew himself and had never heard of him. From the web I discovered the astounding fact he had been making movies over 20 years. I have never written a fan letter to Andrew but thanks to him have become good friends with Mary and Mikako. That ,makes him an important part of my life and reading the message board is               part of that.
No tricks Ty. Just really reading his way with words and clever sense of humor and clever use of the smilies made his messages stand out to me. And how about that crazy name? We girls just don't write like that. biggrin.gif
Can't identify with that handsome young guy but have most of his films from the 80s and 90s. Love the quirky pianist and great music in Anything But Love. Think his best acting is in Escape Clause and Father For Brittany but also like Less Than Zeo. Won't watch the ones where he is getting beat up or playing a badie. Only happy endings for me. Can I help it if I am a hopeless romantic? Enough about me. This is Andrews' column.

lmao.gifThanks for the chuckle!  The discussion about the "Inner workings of the enigma that is Snerfy" gave me quite the laugh, and I thank you both!

You are correct in your assumption that I know a good actor when I see one.  An actor's sex doesn't enter into it with me...I see talent, I appreciate it.  I guess what actually brought Mr. McCarthy to my attention is that he wasn't really the "pin-up" boy back in the 80s.  Sure, women adored him (he's a very good-looking man, I'm comfortable enough with my masculinity to admit that) but he was more into his craft than most of the other actors of his age.  There was something behind the 'pretty face'...an intelligence in his acting, expressiveness...how he often conveyed so much with a simple glance.  His acting prowess just amazed me....still does.  He can act circles around most of his fellow actors.  Like in "Pretty In Pink"...his performance just stunned me. Such a soulful guy, such emotion!

And...I do write quite often...good call!!  I'm actually quite intrigued by what 'gave it away' that I might be male...or what might have intimated that I was the opposite.  Things like that just interest me to no end.

I won't go into severe detail about myself, as this is indeed Mr. McCarthy's board...but anyone who cares to can email me.  I'm quite the friendly little Snerfy and am always happy to chat with other fans of the great Andrew McCarthy blahblah.gif
