Day 1 - Favorite Donnelly brother

Finishing up another rewatchathon... and it's pretty safe to say I'm madly in love with this guy. I'm always surprised when I realize just how much I missed him when I haven't seen TBD in a while. =P

Day 2 - How did you discover TBD?

Saw an ad for it on NBC before it aired. They did a lot of advertising for a show they pulled after 6 episodes. *shakes fist at* Ah, such fond memories of sitting at my computer, yelling at NBC for not having the web-only episodes available when they said they would... they were always an hour or so late. Slow-loading. I am impatient. =P

Day Two: How did you discover TBD?

Basically, I do anything DarkSarcasm does. Plus, it has Olivia Wilde in it, so it wasn't a hard sell. But seriously, DarkSarcasm informed me of its greatness and once it finally aired in NZ, I fell in love with it too.

I looked up Olivia Wilde on wikipedia and saw she was in The black donnellys so I decided that I had to watch it.

Whitey. Totally has nothing to do with Kevin Corrigan's greatness.

Day 4 - If Joey wasn't the narrator, which character would you like to hear the story from?

My first thought was Vinnie, but then I don't suppose it would've really been The Black Donnellys... so I'm going with Jimmy. I feel like TBD kinda focuses on Tommy and the idea of trying to do good, so it'd be fun to hear it from Jimmy, who doesn't care about that sort of thing. He just wants to get shit done. Plus, I'm sure he'd have a great time providing background info on everyone. =P

Methinks Nicky might offer an interesting perspective from the other side of things, but that might be the actor-whore talking... I was originally gonna say Mummy Donnelly, but she's too close to the action and it would probably become very biased (positively or negatively. LOL.) very quickly. So I think Nicky far enough removed to have a wide perspective, but close enough to it all to give a lot of insights.

Day 6 - All four Donnelly brothers are involved in a serious brawl that only one can walk away from. Which brother would you bet on?

Gotta go with Jimmy. Not only would he be the only one to walk away, he'd be the only Donnelly brother that still had his thumbs. ;)

Day Six: All four Donnelly brothers are involved in a serious brawl that only one can walk away from. Which brother would you bet on?

Jimmy, coz he is crazy. Actually probably Tommy coz he fights smart. But I guess crazy beats smart in a fight, so I'll stick with Jimmy.

There are lots of funny parts in TBD... but two come to mind. Kevin's suggestions about the body in 'A Stone of the Heart' and the door stealing in 'In Each One a Savior.'

Day 20 - Ever seen two actors reunite in a movie or show after TBD?

I had to keep a cheat sheet while I watched S1 of Fringe, there were so many familiar faces...

Actor - TBD / Fringe
Kirk Acevedo - Nicky Cottero / Charlie Francis
Keith Nobbs - Joey Ice Cream / Carl Bussler
Brian Tarantina - Vinnie Culiari / "Nice Guy" <--He was only there for a few seconds & didn't share a scene with Kirk, but I fangirled like a mofo anyway. =P
Kevin Corrigan - Whitey / Sam Weiss
Chris Bauer - Huey Farrell / Brian Dempsey
Vince Cupone - douchebag in Kevin's cab / Evan McNeil
Chance Kelly - Johnny Mac (union guy) / Mitch Loeb
David Pittu - Happy Harrison (don't really remember him atm, but he must've looked familiar) / Rob Swift

(Did I leave anybody out, Missy?)

Kevin Corrigan & James Badge Dale were in The Departed.
Tom Guiry, Michael Stahl-David & Mark Margolis (Sal) were in Kings.
JBD and Keith Nobbs were in The Pacific.
Tom Guiry & Michael Rispoli (Alo) were in Black Irish.
Kevin Conway (Mr Reilly) and Kirk Acevedo were in Oz.

Of those, I've only seen The Departed and about half of Black Irish, but I've got Oz & The Pacific on the watch list. Those are just from a quick IMDB-stalking session for this post. >.>
