OMG - can't beleive no one has posted anything in here for poor old Skeet. I'm loving him in Jericho, and of course he was a fantastic badie in Scream. I officialy start the Skeet Ulrich appeciation thread (on this forum anyhow), bring it on........
Welcome to the TV.com Forums for Skeet Ulrich. Here is your area to discuss, dissect and debate all things about this person.
Plus: The creator of Heroes is working on a series pilot for Fox, NBC puts Law & Order: LA on the back burner, and Ricky Gervais will return to The Office.
Plus: Obama interrupts your evening programming, Damages adds an A-lister, and Law & Order: LA gets blown up.
Winners and Losers , The Amazing Race Australia , No Ordinary Family and Downton Abbey are all coming in 2011.
Plus: Parks and Recreation hearts Rob Lowe, John Locke takes an unexpected role, and live from New York, it's... 30 Rock?
Loved him in Jericho and in Law and Order LA, I am really upset they cut him!! I like the other people in L&O LA, but Skeet was the best, I thought...wonder why they decided to do this? Seems like everytime I start liking a show, somebody either stops it, like Jericho, or takes the people off that I like, like Skeet on L&O LA....go figure!!! Now I have said what I have to say, and now I still have 20 words left...now 13...now what..now what..now what...now what..this is ridiculous let me stop, please let me stop..help me, help me..
Skeet Ulrich is one of those actors that manage to create a career in the industry, but without provoking too much fuss around them. Does this mean that you can still make a more than decent living, even if you are not a big big star? Yeah, I guess so.
He still get the opportunity to play next to great actors, which may have been good for his career and his acting. I kinda liked him in "As Good as It Gets", where Jack Nicholson proved who is still big as an actor. But his appearance on "Jericho", which could have meant his confirmation, did nothing to save the show. As his career does not stop now, I think that there will be other chances for Skeet Ulrich.
Skeet is a great and talented actor, he will be missed on TV, now that Jericho is no longer on, except for re-runs. He gets better as the years go by. Someday he will be recognized as the superb actor that he is. Here's hoping that another up and coming new show or an existing one will recognize him and bring him on board so we can see him again every week. Not only is he handsome but very talented an he appreciates his fans. Not only handsome but also a superb actor. At times he has been compared to Johnny Depp and that's a great honor, but Skeet seems more lovable.
Skeet is a relatively unknown actor. At least to me. His performance on Jericho is.. mixed. So to say.
After watching the pilot I thought it was horrible. I literally thought that he had a problem(illness) because of the unnatural facial expressions. There's a scene where 2 kids run to him for help. When he hears them shouting, he makes the weirdest face ever. Really strange. I call it the Skeet-face, he does it alot still, although not as extreme.
However, I noticed that in that pilot everyone was like that. Almost as if the script called for it. "Be over the top" but in Skeet's case... waaaay over the top.
However, as the series progressed, he got MUCH better. But there are moments of his performance that makes the whole thing really unbelivable. For example, season 1 finale, he's crying over his dad. Emotional scene, but it all seems as if he's laughing. In fact for a few seconds I thought he was laughing - (wouldn't be strange as everyone has different reactions) but he wasn't.
I know this comes off real negative, but again: overall he's very capable. He just needs to pay attention to mimics, because he tends to overdo them.
I've got all skeet's movies..I'm probably his biggest fan. I love him!! Not only is he handsome but very talented an he appreciates his fans. What more could you ask for? I have been following his career since Scream an O how he has grown since that movie.As Jake in Jericho he is fantastic you can tell he takes his roles seriously an does his best! I think his great talent has been over looked for years i would love to see him in more movies.I believe they could put him in any part an he would do a great job.He can be serious an funny. Thank you LeeLee
