SON Community: ian - Viewing Profile

Every new actor has a shaky first day or so and then is expected to get right into the action. We try to reserve judgment for the first while as they get adjusted... and hopefully take some acting courses/learn things along the way.

Who, in your opinion, are some of the actors who have most benefitted from professional development? The ones that have shown real progress, or maybe did they just grow on you?

It's an interesting question, because some start out just dreadful and then end up doing an OK job (Charity Rahmer excepted)

What do you think? (It's nice to discuss positive progression for once)

So, Owen is going to be "the target of revenge"... and I think he goes missing in San Diego, no? Plus the way he was acting on TV...

...are we in twin territory? Owen Knight reminds me too much of April Knight...

are we going to have an Owen Doppelganger around town?

...Didn't Amber have a twin? I'm trying to remember. Don't let Maria know or she'll have twice the Adrienne every day, but I wondered what became of that, or maybe I'm mistaken.
