Agreed--I think that's exactly what happened. I think Vaughn patently appealed to adult women, but McCallum definitely had that Pop-Star thing going on. I remember that a next-door neighbor, a then-teenage girl, had all sorts of girl/tween/teen magazines with his face plastered EVERYWHERE.

Yeah, me too. But...then again, I was moderately dubious about the Holmes casting, as well, and I couldn't have been more wrong.
