Gary Cole popped up recently in Desperate Housewives as a menacing sort of chap. As soon as I saw his name in the opening credits, I had an instant image of his face. For the life of me, though, I don’t know where I formed such an accurate image of him.
Now I’ve seen a lot of that stuff, so there’s no mystery to why his face is so familiar. But nothing there seems likely to have stuck his name and face so well in my head.
I thought you were talking about Gary Coleman, the midget child sitcom actor.
Or Gary Collins, the guy who used to do some mattress-for-old-people commercial.
Yeah. Lucas Buck is one of the most amazing characters there’s ever been.
Gary Cole is, probably, my number one on the list of insanely underrated actors. He even shone in that ridiculous “maverick vigilante cops living in an abandoned warehouse” show.
Thanks all - I remember seeing him in a lot of the things posted about here, but still can’t quite pinpoint where his name and face got fixed in my mind.
