Check out this website for one of my all-time favorite actors:

Jay R. Ferguson

Okay, so maybe I'm biased because I created the website.

BUT!

If you like great acting and have been missing out on this guy, head on over to the site and take a look. Aside from the many films he's been in, Jay has had leading roles in:

- Surface (the 2005 TV series about giant sea creatures)
- Judging Amy
- Sleeper Cell, season 2
- Glory Days

Right now he's playing Cooper Buffkin in the CW channel's fantastic new series, Easy Money. It airs on Sundays at 9. Go set up the VCR/DVR/TiVo! (If you've missed it so far, you can watch the first episodes in full on Hulu)

Oh, and of course, there's the whole reason I discovered this guy: Back in 1990, he played Ponyboy in Fox's TV series, The Outsiders, which was based on the book by S.E. Hinton.

Those Dramatic Ads

You know those ads that really go over the top with the drama to get you to buy something? The ones that make you wonder if there's anybody in real life who's as pathetic in the people in these ads? You know the ads I'm talking about, right? Right?

But if not, just take a look at this SNL video:



NOW you know what I'm talking about!

Hope everyone else got as good a laugh as I did out of that. Happy Wednesday!
