day nine: my favorite actor (and again there's only like four to choose from) is Daniel Vincent Gordh, who plays Darcy. it helps that he's had the most screentime, but the few episodes he's appeared in have all been fantastic, even when they've been some of the most dramatic. being a person with severe socail impediments myself, i really like the subtleties imbued in his portrayal. Darcy comes off as socially awkward, but generally well intentioned. his initial intaractions are stilted, but the longer he's known a character the more open he is with them, and i appreciate that having lived it pretty much my whole life. lots of actors have trouble portraying that kind of thing, so i really notice when it's done right.
