law and order- criminal intent

[Guest guest]

Well not as Monk, no he's not hot. But as the taxi driver in Wings he

was cute. And in some of his other stuff he's been cute too. Then

again, Tony Shalhoub is arab-american and my husband is Lebanese descent

so I guess maybe I'm a tad biased?

Did whatshisname ... did he play EDGAR????? OMG!

I'm sorry they made it be him who committed the killing, but I knew he was

aspie from the first scene with him. I don't think they needed to do the

walk like he had though.

I also loved the older geekier brother line! I hadn't thought about Goran

being one before. I just looked at him as being very into psychology and

that was why he had some of the mannerisms he has...you know, trying to

psych the other guy out? After watching this episode though, his hand

movements, understanding the other guys patterns, I can see it more now. I

still wonder about whether or not he is supposed to be though since he read

the description out of a book. It wasn't like he really seemed to know

about it before then.

It does give you a really scarey feeling of what could happen to our kids if

they aren't educated about themselves......

i think that was for effect. if he didn't know what aspergers was, how would he

know that's what the guy had?

<<i think that was for effect. if he didn't know what aspergers was, how would

That makes the most sense. It's all about how he presents himself. It's

almost like he doesn't understand how to pshy someone out, he seems more

intrested in the reactions of the criminals. Take him moving his chair within

inches of someone, they never seem to mind. I mean if someone was that close to

me my butt would ask him what the hell is wrong with him. These people just sit

there. It's odd to me.

Hey, I agree, there is something intrigueing about Tony! Even when he's

playing the OCD on Monk, there's something that draws you to him.

Was he the guy that took over the farmer at the very beginning of Men In

Black?

I've always looked at it more like you do too, Jacquie. More of a " you

can't get past me " type of an attitude, or an " I'm going to get inside your

head " .

I guess if we did, it'd be really boring!

Well, I thought about that too, but if he was really up on psychology, like

the character appears to be.......he'd probably have an inkling. Or

perhaps, he searched the things that the guy displayed, the eye contact,

pedantic speech, odd gate, etc., and it came up with the aspergers name so

he looked it up?

Who knows other than the writers?

Maybe it's that he brings out the mothering instinct in us?

I loved him in that film. Anyone who could play " a

bad tempered alien in a brand new Edgar suit " and make

it believable is very talented.

And I thought he was hot then, too.

I am with you, Jacquie. I still have that image of him as the Bug Alien in Men

in Black that I can't shake.

favorite on the show. He's an Aspie hands down, I just know it.

I'm sure you're right. It never occured to me before this thread, and I

missed last night's episode, but when I think about it...he knows people SO

WELL -- not through intuition, but because he studies people, and always

has. He completely understands the human race without actually seeming to

take part in it.

Jacquie

[Guest guest]

> The other guy has a lot of empathy for an Aspie.

IS it empathy? Or is it application of vast knowledge?

I've not ever thought he was empathetic; rather, I've thought he uses keen

insight based on his understanding of the way people work in order to know

just when to 'launch' at them as he is wont to do.

I wish I'd seen last night's episode. :-( Chose a re-run of the Outer

Limits instead. Dumb, dumb, dumb.

Isn't it AMAZING how two viewers can get two totally different things from

one character? I've always considered what you see as his feeling sorry for

them to be disdain!

No wonder the world is so much fun -- no two people see the same thing

alike!

UGH!

Of course, my opinion of him is coloured by the fact the first film I saw

him in was 'Men in Black'. That image has stuck with me for YEARS.
