    Joe Morton. I had to look him up to find his name, but it seems like I see him in almost everything in some capacity, yet can never quite put my finger on what exactly I've seen him in.

    I heard Hackman had some health problems after Mooseport.
    That guy could do anything - action, drama, comedy.

    First time I saw Clancy Brown was in Bad Boys (the Sean Penn prison flick) - man that movie was some heavy crap. I think I spent the entire two hours thinking "Holy Shit Spicoli!" I'll never think of the Little River Band the same way again.

    And I've always dug Joe Morton, he's kind of a poor man's Morgan Freeman. Surprised to see him on Eureka, but he makes it work.

    I have never heard of or seen Joe Morton (just looked him up on imdb) nor have I ever seen anything he's in. Well, I've seen shows he's been on, but never him on them.

    He was great in "Brother from Another Planet".

    It has taken me five years of watching The Closer to get over how convincing Simmons was as a psycho on Oz. His role in Juno helped too...

    The late, great JT Walsh should be mentioned as well.

    Simmons can even sing and dance. I've seen him do musicals and concert performances.
    A trouper.

    JT Walsh had just hit his stride when he died.

    Another guy who's been in a ton of things in varied roles is William H. Macy. And he's lucky enough to be married to Felicity Huffman.
