out_thereI decided to amuse myself with Peter Krause articles.
From here:
"From 'Sports Night,' you know that when I was clean-shaven, I can look like apple pie," Krause says.
*sniggers* It's just... very true.
Among other things, this season's remaining episodes feature the escalating meltdown of Billy Chenowith, Brenda's bipolar brother, played by Jeremy Sisto -- with whom Krause gets along so famously off-camera it's especially challenging to play their "creepy" scenes together.
*picks up a big stick to beat back the Nate/Billy ideas*
*vaguely wonders where that Brenda/Nate/Billy fic is*
ETA: I searched briefly but couldn't find it. It's a hot little blowjob fic if you do find it. (However, I did find a very convincing Claire/Brenda fic.)
From here:
First Crush: Julie Andrews.
*cracks up at the Bedazzled reference*
From here
"It's a guilty pleasure of mine," he says, "to sit around the house watching reruns of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, drinking a Budweiser. That Will Smith is a funny guy."
Hee!
Sports, in fact, was once Krause's primary passion. But he kept getting injured, whacking his forehead on a table while catching a baseball at age 7 (" I held on to the ball," he says proudly), snapping his wrist lifting weights when he was 10 (don't ask): 'The heavens were guiding me away from athletics,' he says.
See? I didn't need to do any major injuries to myself to prove that I shouldn't do sports. *g*
when asked if he cooks, he replies "Does opening beer count?"
*sniggers*
From here
"I can complete an 18-yard pass in the living room," marvels Peter Krause, 34, of the Los Angeles-area, Spanish-style house that he bought in July. "I know because a friend and I tried."
Hee! I'm suddenly imagining Casey and Danny breaking lots of furniture testing out their apartments.
He has stocked the kitchen-"two of the first things I bought were a juicer and a ladder to pick the oranges" off the tree near his backyard pool, Krause says. That way he can pamper a steady stream of houseguests like Sports Night costar Sabrina Lloyd, who camped out for two weeks this summer when she was between residences. Lloyd, who calls her pal's home "so beautiful and incredibly empty," enthuses that "every morning he presses fresh juice."
Okay, not the quote![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
phoebesmum was talking about JC staying over, but close. *g*
Krause's do-it-yourself attitude extends to laundry- "but not ironing, I'm more of a wrinkly guy."
*hearts him* I'm a wrinkly girl, myself.
"Sometimes when I finish work, I'll drive home, put the car in the garage, take off all my clothes and just jump in the pool," he says with a sigh.
And on that thought, I'm going to let my mind wander... *g*

*nods* Oh, yes. Definitely! Even if PK is stranger than Casey, he's still gorgeous. Ditto for JC.

Re: Hold the front page!
Date: 2004-06-21 05:49 pm (UTC)*snerk* I don't think many fans agree with that.
"When it's late at night and we've been filming for a while, Josh and I tend to find each other really amusing," says Krause of the pair's chemistry as Sports Night anchors Casey McCall (Krause) and Dan Rydell (Charles). "It gets us into trouble at times."
*sniggers* Yes, boys, you have great *chemistry*.
Karuse, 34, made a name for himself as the son-in-law on Cybill (he has been dating former costar Alicia Witt for three years) and in movies such as "The Truman Show" before siding up next to Charles, at whose home he lived for three months last year while waiting to move into his own house.
Aha! *high fives you* I had to read the article twice - I somehow skimmed that comment. Dude, three *months*? (That's like... longer than a lot of romantic relationships. *winks*)

Date: 2004-06-22 03:25 pm (UTC)I wish I could get the 'fine hound' quote in context, because what on earth was Sorkin thinking? It seems shockingly impolite, just for one thing. Anyway. Mercifully, the Dan=Casey balance spreads itself out more or less evenly. Though Peter Krause seems to have done all the interviews.
Yup, more chemistry than ... and here, you see, owing to my complete and utter lack of scientific competence, I am entirely stuck for a metaphor. Simile. Whatever. More chemistry than a laboratory full of, er, chemicals. *Sigh* Nope. It's okay, I'm on my way to bed.
And yes, indeed, three months. Tough housing market out there? Or were they just too happy as they were to want to change??

*nods* Then again, Sorkin himself is not a great judge of character. The characters that he loves are frequently not the ones the audience adores. Plus, Sorkin can be surprisingly rude in some interviews... He seems to be a petty, if brilliant, man.
Though Peter Krause seems to have done all the interviews.
He does seem to, actually.
However, since you're such a JC fan, I was wondering if you had heard anything that could confirm or deny an SN rumour I heard. A slasher friend of mine said that Sorkin and JC argued on set over certain things, and that Sorkin wrote the S2-Abby-plot in retaliation; apparently, the plot was modelled closely on JC's experiences/life, ie too close to be comfortable, and Sorkin basically told him to like it or lump it.
I don't know how much truth is in that... but I've never actually researched on actors. (I'm happy to basically pretend my characters are real.)

More chemistry than a high school science lab?
*shrugs* Sorry, that's the best I can come up with.

Well, objectively speaking, it could have been for building or repairs/alterations, in which case, three months wouldn't be nheard of. (Of course, neither would it be unheard of for bulders to promise it would take a month, and actually have it take three.)
Still, yes. RPS, definitely.

Date: 2004-06-23 12:47 pm (UTC)I'd heard a version of the Sorkin-v-Charles squabble rumour, only in this case it was over the 'fine hound' quote; so, unless Sorkin really lets things seethe, I doubt it would have had impact on second season. Also, the rest of the story makes no sense - if a writer really has it in for an actor, I wouldn't expect him then to sit down and write that actor a really good, meaty, dramatic storyline with lots of solo screen time. What I might expect him to do, if he was feeling spiteful, would be to write several scripts that sidelined the actor completely while showcasing the rest of the cast, and/or to give him weak storylines, or ones that made his character look stupid. (Umm ... did Sorkin quarrel with Rob Lowe, by any chance?) So I'd have no trouble believing that the Hillary Clinton storyline, or the CSC poll storyline sprang out of a difference of opinion.
It does seem to be a particularly persistent and prevalent rumour, whatever the actual story is, and I suspect there's probably at least a grain of truth in it; Sorkin, we know, can be a little bit vicious (see the great TWOP feud for evidence - and that was after his drug bust, if he was doing a lot of coke while he was writing SN he was probably bouncing off the walls half the time), and I have an almost completely unfounded suspicion that Josh Charles probably isn't all sweetness and light either. (I base this, in case you were going to ask, largely on the fact that I fancy him rotten, and I know what sort of man I always fancy. Plus dumping Jennifer Connelly the day before the Oscars, which was a wee bit caddish. Unless she dumped him. Rumours vary.)
That's all speculation, obviously - I could write for the National Enquirer, me! And no, I haven't really given it a lot of thought, I've probably spent less time thinking about it than I have typing it up!
Fancying the characters is a lot safer, at least you know where you are with them. And if you happen to write fanfic, they're completely in your power!!!
This has nothing to do with anything, but....
