I should probably be posting this in the Dollhouse forum, but I don't know how frequented it is. I'll probably post it after.

This past week in Haunted, right as Adelle and "Julia" are walking into the funeral home, juuuuuust as they pan up from Margaret's face, the guy that looks at her and moves off to the left is the Sheriff from Train Job. ^_^

Edit: wow jumped the gun a bit, apparently it's "Julia's" brother XD still, sheriff!!

From what I heard in the commentary on the Train Job, apparently that actor tends to get typecast as a villain a lot.

It's nice that Joss gives him a break. :)

Who, Gregg Henry? That guy gets a TON of work. And yes, he's usually playing an a**hole. IMDB shows him getting steady work since 1976. He's the bad guy in Mel Gibson's mob flick "Payback", he was the a-hole boss in "The Riches", he was the a-hole dad of Rory's boyfriend in The Gilmore Girls, he's been on just about every crime show in the last 30 years...

So he's not exactly some random guy who turned up. He's sought after.

Just sayin', seems like playing a villain all the time would wear on a person. So when Joss lets him be not a bad guy, I feel happy for him.

I figured he was the murderer the second I saw him. I was like "Oh he's a Joss regular. He's gotta play a big role".

I dunno... Most actors I've ever heard asked about it say villains are so much more fun to play, because you REALLY get to stretch out and have fun with the role.

But yeah, sometimes it's good to NOT be the bad guy. And Joss uses it to good effect, too - you EXPECT him to be the bad guy, and then get a bit of a surprise if you're wrong.

I really liked his villian role in Payback, very creative villiany. But it was nice to see him get another regular-guy stint in this one.

Love to see that commander from Bushwhacked get a guest spot.
