He was on a gameshow a while back. He showed himself to be not that smart. That guy from "Castle" rocked it though.

That guy is Nathan Fillion. He is a treasure. Dr Horrible, The Suicide Squad, Superman, Firefly, Guardians of the Galaxy. I'm always happy when he pops up.

I agree. Dude made wearing jorts and roller blades seem cool back in the day.

That second photo has the same energy as the one of the rock with a turtleneck and a Fanny pack.

[–] boaratio@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago

Sure does. Good call.

Wdym 'back in the day´?

[–] Apeman42@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

No wonder he got cast as Guy Gardner. Everyone else feared the bowl cut, but a man rollerblades down the street in that outfit, people know he ain't afraid of anything.

Man, I've been nervous about enjoying Fillion's stuff since the last few seasons of Castle; with the rumors swirling around about what might have been going on between him and Stana Katic. Sucks, because he's genuinely skilled and hilarious; I love watching him, but I was catching rumors similar to what you hear before certain types of abusive behavior are made public.

But, it sounds like they just had an insane shooting schedule for that show, and were around each other way too much? Neither one seems to have anything bad to say about the other, nor have I found anything about him behaving poorly from other people. Seems like they were both just badly overworked, and the gossip rags and the internet made a whole thing about it?

He's a villain through the last season of Buffy (or maybe it was season 6, it's been a while).

Oh, oh that's not in at all. He isn't that guy from Castle.

He's that guy from firefly. His most acclaimed show, that went on for years (don't check).

Say, your coat is kind of a brownish color.

[–] exasperation@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 8 months ago

His most acclaimed role was Captain Hammer (the hammer is his penis).

[–] RampantParanoia2365@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

Don't be ridiculous. He's that guy from Serenity.

[–] melsaskca@lemmy.ca 1 points 8 months ago

Not the guy who played Castle but one of the two detectives under Stana Katic, the white one. That's the one who was on the gameshow with Dean Cain.
