Wil was the host on an Orphan Black pre show on BBCA tonight, with the Beard he looks like he could be Riker & Beverly's "love child" ...

He is a lot better playing a character of himself on the Big Bang Theory. I like him in that role. I will probably watch this series.

Talk about a childhood acting role defining the rest of your career....

The Yesterday's Enterprise role was the best one, and what they should have done with the character from the beginning. It would have made him a lot less disliked.

Premieres tonight on SyFy!

I had Jury Duty this month. First time I go into the courthouse, there's a whole bunch of juror's wearing RED shirts. I thought, "WTF!" Not only would I NEVER wear a red shirt (me being a Trekkie), much less wear one on juror selection day.

Then, the court clerk comes out into the courtroom, and the dude looks EXACTLY like Will Wheaton/Wesley Crusher! lol

I thought I was in the Twilight Zone... I am NOT joking here, I wish I was allowed to take photos!

Since you were not wearing red were you selected?

Nope!
They selected 27 people (pulled names out of a JAR!), 13 main and 10 alternates. Then after the questioning and challenge part, they let go enough people to use up ALL the alternates! So, I got lucky. That was the only time during this month I had to go in. It seems everybody else took a plea deal.

I dodged the phaser beam that time!

Watched enough of it to give a recurring timer, will finish last nights episode tonight.

I have grown to like the show. He does a good job making fun of a lot of SyFy things...
