Just Because: Adam Scott



Actor Adam Scott has been doing the rounds on talk shows the past couple of weeks promoting his role in Friends With Kids and his role on Parks And Recreation. I hear Parks is a decent show but nothing about NBC's Thursday comedy line-up draws me (or most of America so it seems) to watch. Despite the critical raves and Emmy Awards none of the four sit-coms is putting a dent in the ratings juggernaut of American Idol. If Idol were not enough, Parks has to deal with CBS's The Big Bang Theory. I had not really known Adam had joined the cast until seeing him on TV last week, but he might be what gets me to give it a look.



Adam has been working steadily in the business for close to 20 years, and I think he first caught my eye during his guest stint on Six Feet Under. Adam's talent allows him to move seamlessly between television and film. There is also something about Adam, his look which I find extremely attractive. As an actor, he can weave between the clean cut, goofy and adorable good guy through to a more dark and sexy and more complex look when the role requires it.

Most people just don't get the humor in Community and The Office. Sadly most people gravitate towards the mess over on CBS like Two and a Half Men. NBC is slowly moving in that direction of dumbed down comedies like Whitney.
