Patrick Fischler (Club Valis bouncer- B.C.) - other roles

[MoonShadow]

He was a blond on "The Pretender". Played the role of a photographer wanta be with a stutter.
Does a great job as the plot decoy, did he or didn't he.

But it is good to see them working!

Patrick was on Grey's Anatomy tonight (episode 8.23 "Migration"). I tuned in to see the second part of Jordan's guest appearance and Patrick showed up as another patient in the hospital. He was a nice normal guy with a mysterious ailment.

I have to wonder if he and Jordan ran into each other on set at all -- and whether they reminisced about that interrogation scene from "B.C."

[allegrita]

I hope they did--really!

I don't usually watch HBO shows since we don't have it at home, but we are away and I saw Patrick on the series about a female Vice President. Apparently he is the stars brother-in -law in real life. He played a sleazy photographer.

he was hilarious....especially when he read her lips.

He pops up everywhere...and always as a sleazeball, poor man. I guess the checks cash just as easily no matter what sort of part you play.

And last night, he did it again....this time on 'Castle'. What was funny and definitely a Moonlight moment is that at one point, Fischler's character is on the run with Castle and Beckett. They've had their phones and wallets taken from them and they end up stealing a cell phone left in a car. Problem? The phone is password locked and Castle spends a few minutes trying to guess the four letter password.

Eventually, they get the password, the name of the owner's cat, which happened to be (wait for it) ....Lola.

Somebody in the writing room has a sense of humor....I can't believe this was a coincidence.

OMG that's priceless! With the number of Moonlight alums in the Castle crew!? It had to be deliberate.

EVERYTHING REVOLVES AROUND MOONLIGHT.

I'm just watching this ep, and I think it may be one of Fischler's best roles. He's getting more screen time, and more depth, than usual. The guy is actually a pretty decent actor.

This was one of the few times his character was multi-dimensional. At first, he appears to be a weak victim, terrified that he's in danger and acts the part. Later, he turns out to be the villain, and a smooth one at that, but the shift in character was credible.

So, sure enough, watching Mob City the other night, and there was our Patrick, playing...wait for it...a smarmy gangster.

Okay, here's the trailer for the new Coen Brothers' movie.

There's a scene where George Clooney walks into a room where a lot of older men are sitting...on the right side of the screen, there's our Club Valis bouncer!

And the movie looks hilarious.
