A Message From Bill Bumiller:

"Reva" and her island companion, "Sean", may not have liked each other much when they first met, but their portrayers Kim Zimmer and Bill Bumiller hit it off immediately. "Kim and I just clicked," explained Bumiller. "I don't know how to explain it, except we are of the same ilk. She's from Michigan; I'm from Ohio.


I used to vacation not far from where she lived every year at Glenn Lake, which is a beautiful place. Her husband went to Ohio University which is where I went. But you know, when things like this—where you just click into things—when that happens it doesn't surprise me anymore. Human energy just sort of circulates, it's a very small world." And how did Bill respond when he was told that Kim hadn't stopped talking about her island co-star? "I know and I feel the same way about her," he nodded. "I feel blessed. I've had a lot of these kind of experiences where I've just lucked out. Good people draw good people into their lives, so I take a little bit of responsibility for it, but I also feel completely blessed that I've come into this situation. Florida was great. It was a ball. And it was mostly a ball because of Kim. She's the ring leader. She keeps things light. I think a lot of the scenes came full flight based on what happened between Kim and I."
