Went from the biggest, baddest Force choking mofo in the galaxy to a whiny teenager. Or is that reverse character derailment?

He’s a wisecracking sitcom character by Return of the Jedi. Haven’t seen the new movie; maybe they redeemed him.

(Bear with me on this … in the TV show he was great as the detective who was at least trying to get his OCD under control, but then Andy Bregman started writing books featuring him, and the OCD is so outlandish that the books are almost unreadable.)

    Tied for best with my earlier nomination, “Noel”. I love the storyline of Toby arranging a military funeral for a homeless vet.
