  • How great is this guy on "The Riches?"

    I watched the whole 1st season of "The Riches" and thought Gregg Henry was terrific! I wasn't too familiar with his work before this series, but he was funny, tragic, crass, slimy, tortured, and ultimately very sympathetic and totally entertaining. Hugh is one of my favorite characters onMore television, thanks to the performance (which is a perfect compliment to the writing). Can't wait to see Season 2 in two weeks! -BC

    This guy is funny; I love to see him on the Riches. Give it the old Panco Punch!!!! And he does. hide show

    I think this is one of the best characters on this show. The dialogue between Eddie (Wayne/ Doug) and Gregg (Hugh Panetta) are great. Hugh is such a butt hole or **** as Wayne/ Doug says. Hugh is a strait shooter and his willingness to take chances with the projects he builds is great. For example, when he built homes where there are alligators and a homeowner lost a hand working in her garden. Hugh’s response was classic, “I didn't create alligators, I'm not God”. He feels that is what the entire case is about, funny. The best was when he made Wayne/ Doug fire the person he was hired to replace. That is being a true leader. Probably makes for an interesting and stressful work environment. . We will see if he makes Wayne/ Doug a partner in Panco. That relationship should get real interesting. Give it the old Panco Punch!

    Gregg Henry is a very talented actor that has been around a long time. hide show

    I live in Wichita, Ks. & just saw the movie "The BTK Serial Killer" on T.V. I couldn't believe how much they made Gregg Henry look exactly like Dennis Rader!! His expressions were perfect. He captured the facial expressions & attitude verbatim as far as I noticed on the news. I believe the movie per se was very boring but Gregg Henry was the only good quality about the movie. 3 cheers Gregg
