Jason Isaacs

The excruciatingly talented Jason Isaacs

is yet another hot and hunky British

actor with an incredible history of roles.

Currently he's starring as a toughened,

big, bad, strong-silent-type,

cop Daddy who's old school macho and

reserved;

...a brilliant role that perfectly

showcases his talents!

(Catch "Awake" Thursdays on NBC!)

(stage's "Angels in America")

("The Brotherhood")

("The Patriot")

("Dragonheart") 

Those dreamy eyes and rugged features are

a winning combination!

Oh, my! A sleeping beauty, indeed!

Annnnnnd...the money shot!

MMMM......"Sir, yes sir!"

Not at all bad for a 48 year old, eh?

Although typically cast as a dastardly sort,

Jason has a tremendous range, and actually

has a great comedic sense.

Beauty!

The scruff looks real good on the man!

Keep wearing the hell out of those suits on "Awake,"

Jason....I appreciate ya!

PATRICK WILSON...Oh. My. Goodness.

I have this sort of....
fantasy/delusion

I hold on to

regarding Patrick Wilson.

See, I grew up in

Tampa, and Patrick's

mom and dad

were locally well known.


There were updates on

the local news

(which Patrick's dad co-hosted)

wherein we would learn all about Mr. Wilson's New York City

stage work. He

was so cute, and talented, and I formed this

pseudo-attachment to the idea that I was "more" peripherally

connected to Patrick than I was, say....my fake husband Luke Wilson.

Ya know, since I actually lived in the same town

with someone who was related to Patrick.

No need for his people to check the databases for stalker references;

It was all perfectly innocent and maintained within my head.

Part of the appeal was his being an 'artistic sort' while his parents were so plainly squares.

I liked the rebel vibe of that whole shtick, and it enhanced the draw.

He has a great Everyday Joe look, with that smoldering intensity brewing.

Obviously, too, he has seen the inside of a gym once or twice. (sigh.)

He's great in everything, but three films stand out as faves.

ANGELS IN AMERICA was transformational on many levels. Very intense.

LITTLE CHILDREN was a brilliant tale of desire, relationships, and playing roles;

not to mention one of the hottest sex scenes ever.

The third is PASSENGERS, which rocked me for several reasons.

So, thanks for becoming a big, successful acting stud and gay icon, Mr. Wilson.

And thanks for the ongoing non-existent love affair in my head.

That is, after all, the most rewarding sort!
