A little while ago, I wrote a quick piece about the ‘Guest Stars of the Month’.
I thought I’d follow that up with some random thoughts on some particularly good guest stars I’ve seen lately.
Carrie Preston
Most will know Carrie Preston from her recurring role in ‘True Blood’, but she has been appearing in a few shows over the past year or so, most notably ‘The Good Wife’ and ‘Person of Interest’. Both of these appearances have shown she is a far greater actress than ‘True Blood’ indicated (which was already good).
Curtis Armstrong
Once, mainly known for being ‘Bert Viola’ in ‘Moonlighting’, he has been in loads of things over the years. Now appearing as ‘Metatron’ in Supernatural.
Magda Apanowicz
After appearing as a series regular in ‘Caprica’, not much has been seen of her (we’ll ignore that short run on ‘Hellcats’), but a new recurring role in ‘Continuum’ is a welcome return to mainstream tv. Has also appeared in some Team Unicorn projects in the past couple of years too, so more interesting things could appear.
Denis O’Hare
‘Russell Edgington’ of ‘True Blood’, but also has recurring appearances in ‘The Good Wife’. A great actor.
Tina Majorino
Hopefully, she will appear in the ‘Veronica Mars’ film, but if she doesn’t, then her recent role on Greys Anatomy, where she has really been making her mark, should keep her on the way up.
Amy Acker
Always great, she has continued to keep the quality up throughout this season on ‘Person of Interest’.
Timothy Busfield
Been around for ever, but it’s always good to see him appear in stuff. Most recently in ‘Revolution’.
Patrick Flueger
I’ve not seen much of him since ‘The 4400′, so good to see him back again.
Felicia Day
It’s Supernatural. It’s Felicia Day. It’s great.
