he is in Burn Notice too. He has a smooth patch in the middle of his forehead, I can't tell if it's from botox or what...he's SO weird looking!

I'll always remember him from Ravenous, which also featured Jeremy Davies.

McDonough was set to star in the ABC dramedy Scoundrels[3] but was fired for refusing to do sex scenes for the show. He credits his family and his Catholic faith for his decision.[4]
McDonough portrays the role of "Jesus" in "The Truth & Life Dramatized audio New Testament Bible," a 22-hour, celebrity-voiced, fully dramatized audio New Testament which uses the Catholic edition of the RSV.

I really dug last week's episode, the money in the cooler was LOL
― Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 06:16 (twelve years ago) link
the teaser for this episode was very upsetting

I can't remember it
― Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 07:19 (twelve years ago) link
just dewey crowe in a bathtub of his own blood being told about what's going to happen to his body without kidneys. i couldn't even look at the screen/kind of felt like i was going to pass out.
― horseshoe, Wednesday, 15 February 2012 17:21 (twelve years ago) link
oh shit NOW i remember
yeah

Currently the best show on tv for my moneyi love the comic book intensity of the bad guys

Otm. The dialog has guaranteed lols in every ep
― Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 16 February 2012 06:08 (twelve years ago) link
the slow drift to icy on the Detroit guys face when he knew his bullshit was not being bought was some priceless acting there
― little clouds of citrus spritz as i peel (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 16 February 2012 06:12 (twelve years ago) link
this show is clicking in a way I never thought it would. Absolutely killing it this season.
― Clay, Thursday, 16 February 2012 06:53 (twelve years ago) link
It took me a while to get over no Mags, but I dunno...if they keep this up story-wise this show could run for years
― Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 16 February 2012 07:04 (twelve years ago) link
i damn well hope so
― little clouds of citrus spritz as i peel (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 16 February 2012 07:12 (twelve years ago) link
And they have such AWESOME casting. Using really quality actors in the smallest roles, I love this style of tv.
― Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 16 February 2012 07:19 (twelve years ago) link
Have I mentioned that I LOVE THIS SHOW
always meant to look into it, but is the show shot in the south? If not they do an excellent job of making LA look like absolutely not LA.
― Clay, Thursday, 16 February 2012 07:20 (twelve years ago) link
I think I remember some hills looking an awful lot like Southern California once, but I don't know. There are more shows being filmed in the south these days (Vampire Diaries, Walking Dead, Hart of Dixie) that maybe there are tax breaks they found.
Still, pretty sure it is LA, especially considering the conspicuous "we're going to LA" episode in the first season.
― encarta it (Gukbe), Thursday, 16 February 2012 07:28 (twelve years ago) link
I'd like to see them flesh out his fellow Marshalls a bit more, but as they don't have the time for Ava and Natalie Zea (forget her character name) I don't imagine that will happen.
― encarta it (Gukbe), Thursday, 16 February 2012 07:29 (twelve years ago) link
I want more of the sniper guy, he's cuet :)
re shooting locations, yeah I think they do most of it in LA. One of my friends in LA recognised the bridge the baddies RV was parked under from the episode a couple of weeks back
― Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 16 February 2012 07:40 (twelve years ago) link
i am hoping for more rachel time this season. also my sister wants ava and wynona gone, period, which i have to admit might be better.
― horseshoe, Thursday, 16 February 2012 08:05 (twelve years ago) link
I kinda like Ava, but I could live without Wynona
― Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 16 February 2012 08:10 (twelve years ago) link
i like ava, too, but girlfriend roles are wretched
― horseshoe, Thursday, 16 February 2012 08:10 (twelve years ago) link
I still feel Ava's shift to pro-crime Boyd Crowder lover was far too abrupt and unbelievable, but I'm okay with it now.
― encarta it (Gukbe), Thursday, 16 February 2012 08:12 (twelve years ago) link
here is the thing about boyd: he's dreamy?
― horseshoe, Thursday, 16 February 2012 08:15 (twelve years ago) link
No doubt, and I buy their relationship when they're on screen together. It was just the switchover that still feels like figuring out how to keep Ava in the show.
― encarta it (Gukbe), Thursday, 16 February 2012 08:18 (twelve years ago) link
yeah they didn't dole her out a lot of character in the first place
― horseshoe, Thursday, 16 February 2012 08:20 (twelve years ago) link
I feel like I like Winona more this season than ever before, but yeah Season 1 Ava is not the same character as the rest of the show, which is kind of the biggest annoyance for me right now. That said, this absolutely ruled this week. Loved Raylan's horrible pun, it felt like he lifted it from the Archer writers' room.
― Simon H., Thursday, 16 February 2012 14:10 (twelve years ago) link
looks like Winona is going to be a lot more pivotal shortlyhere's hoping she elevates beyond the "i stole a bag of money, shucks" schtick from last year. it wasn't that bad but had the same whiff of ava breaking bad: character development for the sake of plot development
― little clouds of citrus spritz as i peel (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 16 February 2012 15:29 (twelve years ago) link
I read somewhere that those two episodes were specifically conceived more as a relatively inexpensive stopgap rather than some carefully considered (on a thematic/character level) development, which makes a lot of sense in retrospect.
― Simon H., Thursday, 16 February 2012 17:36 (twelve years ago) link
yyyep
― little clouds of citrus spritz as i peel (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 16 February 2012 17:53 (twelve years ago) link
It's kind of maddening, as far as Ava and Winona are concerned. I mean, the writers are capable of coming up with an awesome, well-shaded female character like Mags...it's not like they cant get better storylines for them. But yeah, if they're just going to be cartoons, then don't have them at all.
― Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 16 February 2012 18:08 (twelve years ago) link
How are we to this point on the thread without anyone mentioning how Mykelti Williamson is ABSOLUTELY KILLING IT as Ellstin Limehouse? The introduction of Noble's Holler is this season's stroke of genius, and his patriarchal menace is the photo negative of Neal McDonough's Quarles character.
― Display Name (this cannot be changed):, Thursday, 16 February 2012 18:10 (twelve years ago) link
yeah noble's holler is a development i am v *excited* and Limehouse is already a great character
― horseshoe, Thursday, 16 February 2012 18:11 (twelve years ago) link
Yes, loving Limehouse. that dude is badass. He's sort of got that even-tempered, still waters run deep kinda, I dunno, Marsellus Wallace feel about him...
― Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 16 February 2012 18:19 (twelve years ago) link
His creepy "bacon"-flavored sex threat against my lovely Deputy Brooks REALLY pissed me off.

he's strong but I don't feel like he's gotten a *great* scene yet.
― Simon H., Thursday, 16 February 2012 18:30 (twelve years ago) link
the torture scene was a sign of things to come,
― Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 16 February 2012 18:36 (twelve years ago) link
I'm willing to bet that first great scene will be his first encounter with Quarles.
― Simon H., Thursday, 16 February 2012 18:40 (twelve years ago) link
kinda too bad I don't have cable for this, cuz I can't see haviong the time to watch DVDs of prev season til, oh, September

bummer morbs! it's really great!

yeah, evil bbq guy is greatthe one weak link is the female marshall imo. they gave her an ep last season and she basically threw it away. I'm not sure she can act.
― little clouds of citrus spritz as i peel (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 16 February 2012 19:01 (twelve years ago) link
er Brooks, I guess.
no i love her!
― horseshoe, Thursday, 16 February 2012 19:03 (twelve years ago) link
aw I like her
― Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 16 February 2012 19:04 (twelve years ago) link
