How is it that someone could write such a lengthy bio for Victor and not even MENTION his series, Justice?
I absolutely loved him as Jack Bristow, and enjoy him as Ron Trott on Justice. Can't wait to see what Mr. Garber does next! ~GT
Welcome to the TV.com Forums for Victor Garber. Here is your area to discuss, dissect and debate all things about this person.
Plus: Charlie Sheen's leading lady is almost set, Kevin Nealon is headed back to NBC, and Grimm casts a foxy lady.
On our list this week: Steve Carell's loss at the Emmys, Up All Night's strong second episode, and Survivor's Brandon Hantz.
After I saw the hilarious and joyful pilot for Fox's upcoming musical series Glee back at January's TCA press tour, I decided it just might be my favorite new series of this whole season. And now, it turns out there's something that could make me love it even more: Kristin Chenoweth and Victor Garber are both joining the series in recurring roles.
I really can't find enough words to describe in my opinion one of the greatest actors I've ever had the pleasure of watching. I've cried over/during movies or television shows before but I've never cried for months over a character. I actually went through a period of mourning when Jack Bristow died (stomach ache, nausea, depressed, hair fell out). My friends and family thought I was nuts (still do). I've never even been a big fan of television much less get hooked on a character that causes you to become so attached, protective and loyal. His portrayal of Jack Bristow was undeniably brilliant and he was robbed of several Emmys. I also watched all episodes of Justice and he did an equally fine job for the short time it ran. His recent performance as Professor Barrett on Ugly Betty is certain to get him an Emmy nomination for Best Guest Appearance. I'm looking forward to watching him as Jordan Weathersby in Eli Stone where I understand he will sing. There is really no way I can say enough Victor Garber is just captivating as hell.
Titanic - This was the first thing that I saw him in and even to this day I can still remember some of the things that he said in the movie just because he has that thing about him that makes you remember some of what he says, even if it is minor. He played a small role in the movie, but I thought this character was well suited for what he had to do.
Alias - Here is the highlight of his acting. I thought the nice litttle mix of action/adventure and then background sneaking around and plotting behind the rules was perfect for his character. He did what he had to do to protect his daughter, who was always priority number one anyways. I loved his on screen connetion with Ron Rifkin and Jennifer Gardner, two people that he always had to be clicking with on camera for the audiance to feel like they were inside of the television show. Overall, one of the best actors of all time I think.
... the famous line from the final episode of Alias altered a little, also the final line spoken by Jack Bristow. I only know Victor for his performance on Alias, but that's more than enough to convince me that he's a terrific actor.
Victor had a hard time portraying Jack Bristow on Alias. Jack was not a man of emotions. But, in order for us to symphatize with him, we had to feel something. Something about his character. But since he didn't show any emotions, it was hard...
or not. It wasn't hard at all. His poker face is perfectly see through because of Garber's amazing acting. His eyes say more than most actor's 1000 lines.
Despite his poker face, you knew when he was worrying for his daughter's safety, when he was satisfied, or when he was sad and lonely.
And that is what so brilliant about his character, and I really doubt it would have worked with anyone else. JJ Abrams has found the best possible actor to play Jack Bristow.
All put together, Garber deserves to be a much bigger star. I hope he's upcoming projects will be successful.
Victor Garber is the best actor and singer nowadays.
I hope to be blessing with many shows, films and series with him.
I hope JUSTICE isn´t cancelled! I´ve sure Fox will be reconsidering.
Fox put the serie in wrong schedule competing with super bowl and others series and without enough publicity.
How can this serie take off
I hope that Fox is evaluating when is the best day and time to return this serie in your schedule.
I love Jack Bristow, I love Victor. I just plain and simply love this man. He's so perfect. As Jack Bristow, he is a romantic husband, a loving father, a mysterious and ambiguious agent, and a rude killer. Oh, never foget he is so sexy! He is the ideal of man!romantic, mysterious, ambiguious, devoted and so rude! I don't know how to express my passion for him. Episode 18 of season 4, when Jack was in somekind of illusion and Sydney pretended to be his wife. Gees! That's my favorite part of the serie and I can't help watching it over and over again. When in the end of Alias, Jack was shot and dead, I cryed for half an hour like the end of the world. The editor should be killed for this bad arrangement. God, I hate my bad english! LOVEUVICTOR!!!!!!!!!!!!! You are the best and I'll love you for ever! Looking forward to your next show!
