Watching The 4400

I do apologize for the lack of posts lately, things have gotten a bit like the Chinese curse, “May you live in interesting times” around here, like I said over at Watching Jericho. While I’ve been silent, though, some of the great actors from the 4400 have been very busy, popping up all over the place on other shows that I watch regularly and have usually fallen in love with recently.

So I’m watching Journeyman the other week (you’re watching it, right? Really, you should be!), and who should show up on my television screen as the father of Dan Vassar (The time-traveling Journeyman from the title), who Dan had to go to for some information but our very own Joel Gretsch! I was so excited to see him on this show, and thought that he did a wonderful job and I really hope that they keep sending Dan back to this point in the time line so we can see more of Joel and the great character that he’s playing.

Also, who should I spy as the Baddie - of - the - Week over on Life as a slimy Russian mobster who’s been selling information to the Feds but Garrett Dillahunt, our very own Matthew Ross. He’s far, far too good at slimy, people, considering the plot for the episode centered around him not only killing a girl by throwing her out of a window, but also caging her secret boyfriend up with his dogs which he used in dog fighting activities. They left the episode open at the end to allow for him back also, which I hope happens just as much as Joel Gretsch over at Journeyman.

Have you seen anyone else from the 4400 out on the new shows for this season that I’ve missed? Leave a comment below, ok?
