    Man... JC Mackenzie. I've seen him in Dark Angel, and he is absolutely wonderful! hide show

    In Dark Angel, all the side characters have a lot to compete with; they all have so much humor in their personalities that it's difficult for any one individual to shine. In my opinion, JC Mackenzie does! His sense of comic timing is near perfect, and every moment he is onscreen he is drawing the viewer in. He plays the part of Normal, a timid mad trying to do just that, and not succeeding too well. This is most likely because of the job he has: manager of a delivery service. His employees leave something to be desred, but he muddles through it, entertaining the audience just as much as a side character should.
