'The tongue-in-cheek aspect of it is so silly,' Murray says. 'And I just appreciate it so much.' Speaking by phone from a car while 'cruising the streets of Toronto' for a busy media day, Murray didn't seem too bothered about the idea of being referred to as one of the millennial generation's beloved poster boys. Although, he admits he never quite got used to the heightened female fandom that peaked from 2003 through 2012 during his lengthy run on the TV show One Tree Hill. 'It's kind of bizarre,' he says with a laugh. 'I don't know if you can actually get a grasp of it.' Essential reading for hockey fans who eat, sleep, Canucks, repeat.

Chad Michael Murray as Lucas in the show One Tree Hill. © The WB While he can look back now at the fan obsession with his younger self with a better perspective — 'Wow, what a crazy time,' he says — Murray recalls feeling uncomfortable with the attention during a point where he wasn't always so easy on himself. 'When you're in it, it's like when you look in the mirror and you see the imperfections right in the reflection? And you're like, 'Oh, well, this isn't right. This isn't right. This isn't right,'' Murray says. 'I think we tend to get, as humans, hyper focused sometimes on the things that aren't necessarily there. And not on the things that are right.' When you search for 'Chad Michael Murray' on Google these days, the addition of the word 'young' is returned as one of the top search results (Murray says he doesn't Google himself). Thanks to streaming, the actor's fanbase continues to grow among younger generations discovering his early films, like Freaky Friday with Lindsay Lohan and The Cinderella Story with Hilary Duff, on their favourite online platforms. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. 'Honestly, what a blessing. What a blessing in this current world of streaming where One Tree Hill can have another life,' the 43-year-old actor says. 'The fact that (the show) was able to stand the test of time, that is just a wonderful pat on the back that it was a job well done. I feel really blessed to have been a part of it.' Unlike early generations of celebrities, where photos from red carpet appearances may not have become available beyond the entertainment wires, Murray is among the stars whose back catalogue of event images — and outfits — can be found online with the click of a key. Murray cringes at some of his aughts-era fashion picks. 'I just laugh at all the god-awful choices I've made over the years,' he says. 'You know, I had to try it. I had to try to make sure I didn't like it.' As for Murray's first crush — beyond the soda, of course, as the actor says he was a big fan of Crush as a teen — the actor pointed to Dick Tracy-era Madonna as the first to come to mind. 'That was the specific moment I think I realized, like, wait a second, she's pretty,' Murray says of the superstar singer's turn in the 1990 film. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. While based in Buffalo, New York, the American actor has a special connection to Canada. Throughout his career, Murray has spent a fair amount of time filming in Hollywood North. 'I absolutely love it,' Murray says of the country. 'I feel so at home. I love filming in Nova Scotia. I love filming in Canada in general, but Nova Scotia is like the best hidden gem in North America. The community has really embraced myself and my family, and we've embraced them.' Canadians, Murray adds are 'the best.' Cue: collective swoon. News BC Lions Local News Vancouver Whitecaps Vancouver Canucks

'Sullivan's Crossing' Season 3: Chad Michael Murray, Morgan Kohan struggle to take next step in Cal, Maggie's relationship
After spending time with Cal (Chad Michael Murray) and Maggie (Morgan Kohan) at the farm with Cal's parents in New York, Sullivan's Crossing Season 3 continues its story in Nova Scotia. While Cal is still trying to cope with his father's diagnosis, there's a lot going on with Sully (Scott Patterson), both personally and professionally. Let's not forget that Sully is facing the threat from Glenn (Dean Armstrong) after the Nova Scotia Environmental Agency was called to look into the construction of his resort. But things get even messier in this Maggie is heading off to work, Sully doesn't plan to join her and Maggie's concerned that Glenn's threat is the reason why, despite Sully's insistence that it's not about Glenn. Edna (Andrea Menard) and Frank (Tom Jackson) have a similar concern, but Frank thinks Sully may have started drinking again. Frank goes to see Sully, offers to spend some time with him and asks if he wants to go to a meeting an AA meeting, but Sully tries to assure Frank he doesn't need any help. Shortly after that Helen (Kate Vernon) shows up, Sully invited her over for lunch. They talk about the importance of letting go of the past to make room for the future, but then Helen then pulls out a bottle of wine she brought for them to share. When Maggie has to go back to the house to get some potatoes for Edna, she see an empty bottle of wine on the kitchen counter and goes up to Sully's room to find him. Sully says he wasn't drinking and Helen appears behind him to explain. Then Maggie realizes she's interrupted something intimate and quickly leaves. Running into each other later that day, Helen tells Maggie she wouldn't have brought over the bottle of wine if she knew Sully was an alcoholic. But Maggie stresses that Sully's had recent struggles with his sobriety and he's in a good place, and she'd "hate for anything to change that." Meanwhile, Cal is trying to fix his truck, but ends up trading it in for a sports car instead, one he's wanted since he was a kid and his dad took him to a car show. Taking Maggie for a ride, he tells Maggie he can't wait to show his dad the car when he visits. Then Cal asks Maggie if she'll move in with him. But Maggie thinks he's still trying to cope with his dad's diagnosis and he's making rash decisions, and adds that now that Sully is seeing Helen, she doesn't want to leave him alone if he might get hurt. Cal says it's fine, but walks away looking disappointed. But on the topic of Sully and Helen, she tells him that Maggie told her he's only recently sober and he's been through a lot, and she wouldn't want to do anything to jeopardize that. "It's true I have ben through a lot," Sully says in response. "But I'm a stronger person because of it. You don't need to worry about me Helen." "I have no idea where this is going. ... But I do know that I haven't felt this way about anyone in a very long time, and I think we at least owe it to ourselves to see where it could go. No stings. No commitments. No expectations. ... Why not live in the moment with me." Helen agrees to "see where this goes" with Sully. Sully ends up telling Maggie that she has to stop worrying about him, that she has to focus on her life. Maggie tells Sully that Cal asked her to move in with him, but she said it's not the right timing with how he's responding to his dad's diagnosis. Sully questions her reason for saying no, specifically whether her moving in with Cal will actually negatively impact his ability to cope with what's happening with his father. There's also some significant progress in Sydney (Lindura) and Rafe's (Dakota Taylor) relationship. Things are pretty rocky, but it's all stemming from how Cooper (Steve Lund) is treating Rafe at work, even telling him to not come in for the day. And Rafe thinks he's about to get fired after seeing Cooper talk to someone from the regional department. Rafe takes Cal's advice to go to the station to talk to Cooper. He starts by telling Cooper he know he has no intention of keeping him around, but Rafe knows he's a good firefighter so he won't be pushed out. Cooper says he didn't have any intention of firing him and he only gave him time off because he thought that's what Rafe wanted. Cooper also says the talk he had with the person from regional had nothing to do with Rafe, it was a personal matter. But back at home, Sydney ends up calling out Rafe for either not being home, or not wanting to spend time with her when he's home. Rafe finally tells Sydney how bad things have been at work and how he thought Cooper was going to fire him. But Rafe says Sydney is the best thing that's ever happened to him and they reconcile. Meanwhile, Rob (Reid Price) is starting to setup his restaurant in Sully's lodge, with plans for it to be Acadian cuisine, and Sydney volunteers to help with the design of the space. And Rob's personal life is heating up, spending some one-on-one time with Jane (Cindy Sampson). But then there's a significant impact to his progress. To end the episode, someone from the health and safety office shows up, telling Sully there was an anonymous complaint and he's looking for any possible violations at the new restaurant being opened on the property, Rob's restaurant. Everything looked fine, until Sully hits a wooden board and the wall and it crumbled. The inspector says they have two weeks to bring the lodge up to code, otherwise he'll have to have it condemned. An absolutely devastating result for Rob who's worked so hard to try to get his own restaurant.
