Today's Blind Items - Bad Drug Behavior
This C list television actor on a very hit network show has had some really good luck when it comes to television. Despite being only C+, he has been on two very hit shows. A very lucky guy. Oh, except for what happened last week. Our actor was at a party and was enjoying coke, booze and and any other thing he could find. Not the largest guy in the world, it was seriously affecting him. It did not stop him from grabbing a golf cart from the garage and then driving it at full speed through a fence at the house, crashing through the neighbor's dog house, and then finally crashing into the pool. Another guest had to pull him out of the pool. The neighbors were going to call the police until a big check was written for the damages.
Ian Somerhalder -- Lost and The Vampire Diaries
ReplyDeleteDoug Savant from DH and (the original) Melrose Place?
ReplyDeleteIs David Caruso C+ list? Probably, although he's D- to me.
ReplyDeleteRob Lowe? He's little.
ReplyDeleteJohnny Galecki?
ReplyDeletedavid spade for "rules of engagement" and "just shoot me." except that ds is probably b/b+ and those aren't 2 very hit shows.
ReplyDeleteDavid Spade has been traveling all over the world that last few weeks doing press junkets for his new movie, just FYI
ReplyDeletecorbett
ReplyDeleteDavid Spade was also on SNL. That's a hit network show.
ReplyDeleteBTW, I'm 85% joking. Has there ever been a luckier guy than John Corbett? Talk about making the most out of a modest talent.
ReplyDeleteIf Jonny Galecki is the guy from The Big Bang Theory, then I'm with Nosey Parker. That's immediately who I thought of. His current show and Rosanne being the very hit shows.
ReplyDeleteJohn Stamos! The guy is physically a god and the luckiest guy out there with his minimal talent.
ReplyDeleteThis one is hard...I like Ian Somerhalder -- Lost and The Vampire Diaries, but think he is more than C+. I am going with Jonny Galecki.
ReplyDeleteCorbett would make since, wasn't he on a show called lucky on FX. I was thinking Jeremy Sisto - Law and Order and Six Feet Under.
ReplyDeletekathryn, who isn't of modest talent in hollywood? seriously, not many stars and actors have more than modest talent. a few yes, most no.
ReplyDeleteJohn Corbett is at least handsome and he has a certain calm way about him.
no guesses though.
john corbett is 6'4"!!!!! it's not him.
ReplyDeleteI'm with Nosey Parker and mum
ReplyDeleteJohnny Galecki.
Although I REALLY like him, I think he seems to have a wild side.
Johnny Galecki is a great guess! I didn't know he was on Roseanne.
ReplyDeleteI'm with the David Spade guesses.
ReplyDeleteOT, but: Joseph Gordon-Levitt was on Roseanne for a few episodes, too.
ReplyDeleteI just started watching The Big Bang theory and never realized it before but I think I may have a nerd fetish.
ReplyDeleteNeedless to say Johnny Galecki has been really doing it for me and this would make me super sad that yet another actor is a d-bag DAMMIT
That said, its def him or that Ian dude from the Vamp shit
I know it's not Corbett, nancer. I'm just always amazed at how his career has managed to keep chugging along - he is a very lucky guy. I like him a lot, btw. He is very charming and I wish him well.
ReplyDeleteMy first thought was Spade but I'm jumping on the Johnny Galecki train. We would have already heard about this kind of behavior if it was Spade.
ReplyDeleteI'll say David Spade. He's been on "Just Shoot Me" and "Rules of Engagement."
ReplyDeleteIs Seth Green higher than a C+ list? Is he more of a B? He is on Family Guy and was in 40 eps of Buffy. He is small in stature too.
ReplyDeleteRichard Belzer.
ReplyDeleteI want to know what happened to the dog.
But wasn't John Corbett actually on a short lived show called Lucky?
ReplyDeleteHow can he be 6'5 and still in the same frame with SJP?
I immediately thought of Spade. It beats me why anyone ever hires him.
ReplyDeleteI'm with JS- Seth Green immediately popped in my head.
ReplyDeleteNow that I think of it, the John Corbett guess might really be right. Ramona's 'Lucky' reminder does make a whole lot of sense.
ReplyDeleteCan't you guys read? In "on a very hit network show", there's the word "network".
ReplyDeleteCorbett isn't on a network show.
Ian Somerhalder would be, in EL's terms, on an almost network show.
Is the Vampire Diaries a hit show? I've never heard of that guy.
ReplyDeleteI like the Seth Green guess. I would put him higher than C+ with Buffy, Robot Chicken and Family Guy but those Nintendo DS (or whatever) commercials say otherwise.
This particular story wouldn't turn me off a person. Doesn't say he has a problem, just got really wrecked one night. So?
@Ramona, she probably stood on boxes, etc. Happened all the time between Mulder and Scully on X-Files.
LOVE the Galecki guess!!! Totally hit it on the head Nosey!
ReplyDeleteOh and I too would like to know if the dog was alright...
Two things - first, IMO it CAN'T be Johnny Galecki, because I don't think he's "lucky" at all; he's a very talented actor, has done a fair number of indie movies and a lot of theatre & been pretty successful in it. He's definitely not "lucky" to be working at ALL.
ReplyDeleteSecond, I find this particular story HILARIOUS because it reminds me of an anti-drunk driving movie they showed us in high school - an old man got drunk and took a joyride on a golf cart and crashed into a tree and it was one of the most hilarious things I'd ever seen. EXTRA hilarious to a bunch of high schoolers who aren't the most mature bunch to begin with. I STILL laugh when I think of it...so much for trying to scare us straight...LOL
I like the Seth Green guess, although he's been in quite a few movies.. my first thought was Kevin Connolly.
ReplyDeleteJohn Corbett is on "The United States of Tara" now, which is not network tv.
ReplyDeleteOT - Queen Latifah finally takes a picture hugging her girlfriend. I'm glad she "came out" because this was a secret to no one. It looks like they were celebrating the Prop 8 ruling with Alicia and Swiss Beatz. Michael K has pictures on the Dlisted website.
ReplyDeleteCaruso FTW
ReplyDeleteI LOVE Caruso.
ReplyDeleteCaruso was the first person I thought of. He doesn't look very healthy, either.

ReplyDeleteardleigh, Belzer is 6'1".
ReplyDelete@Dan Peck - my friends and I used CSI - Miami as a drinking game. Takes off sunglasses - shot
ReplyDeletePuts on Sunglasses - shot
says "you know what I thing" double shot
leans over to talk to small child in conforting manner - shot
We were ususally drunk before the first commercial break.
@Angela - chill out. No one's saving lives here.
ReplyDeleteLike the Galecki guess but praying it is Caruso. He is so gross.
It's not David spade either. He had done way too many movies to be considered a "television actor."
ReplyDeletei have no opinion but i just looked up this galecki character. no idea he played rusty in national lampoon's xmas vacation, best. xmas. movie. ever.
ReplyDeleteI don't think it's David Spade. He's been famous a long time and I'd say he's at least a B-level star for television, and a C-level for movies. This description could fit dozens of people in Hollywood. Almost all actors are little bitty. That's one reason actress have to be so freakishly thin and tiny. If casting directors would just start casting more full-sized men, then actress could start eating and stop drugging/purging.
ReplyDeleteOh, I think this vice sounds more funny than bad. I mean if it had been my property that was damaged I'd have been pissed, but he did pay for it. It'd be a funny story to tell later. As long as the dog didn't get hurt, then I have no problem with this guy.
Only thing about Johnny Galecki is that I think he's a scientologist, and I don't think tommy would approve of the coke or maybe even the excessive alcohol.
ReplyDeleteWhat's the name of the guy who was on Dharma and Greg and is now on Criminal Minds?
ReplyDeleteVERY C list actor, two very hit shows.
