Idiots @ 9:24 AM
As Parker, a socially inept break-in specialist, Beth Riesgraf is terrible, and, with her shameless mugging and clueless overacting, she manages to upset the equilibrium of many of the scenes she’s in. It’s bad enough that she’s not even close to being in Hutton’s league, but it’s cringe-inducing when she’s not even in Kane’s.
- From THIS BULLSHIT REVIEW
You know, I really despise ignorant people. I do.
Maybe if this woman, oh, I don’t know… watched something else Beth has acted in. Shit, anything she has acted in other than just Leverage, maybe she’d get a fucking clue.
It drives me insane how people will assume she’s a bad actress due to Parker being so socially retarded and awkward. Yes, Parker is loud and can’t shut her mouth and doesn’t understand tone half the time. But that’s Parker, not Beth.
Or are we pretending actors are their characters again? Because if we are, please send me that memo so I can go hunt down Eliza Dushku and beg to get into Faith’s pants.
Because really, that would make my day. I’m just saying.
The last thing I have ever seen Beth do is over act. And I’m not just some clueless fangirl who likes her just because I want to get into her pants – because I don’t. The woman is legitimately a good fucking actress, and I wouldn’t do half the shit I do for her if she wasn’t.
The “Without a Trace” episode she was in? Fucking brilliant. “The Summer of My Deflowering” (which I haven’t seen the entire thing of still – but what I have seen?) amazing. Etc, etc, and so on a so fucking forth.
She’s not a type actress. When I see her characters I can actually see different characters. You know how some people you see them and you just see the actor? I see the characters she portrays, not her. If that makes sense.
And I just think it’s bullshit when people don’t take the time out of their day to actually research what the hell they’re assuming. I really do.
And yes, I know I’m being overprotective of a woman I don’t know. But you know what? I got her back – and she knows it. She says that, apparently. And I do! It’s completely ridiculous and yes I am loud and obnoxious enough to bitch about it publicly. I mean if I’m not, who will? Lol.
Try me, fuckers. I’m not nice.
And on a side note: talking shit about Christian Kane? Yeah, this bitch obviously doesn’t know her head from her own ass.
