Episode 567 | "Dexter" | Actor: Erik King | (James Doakes)
Q: How do you see me, Erik? Have I got some of that down right?
Yes, I think you captured the complexity and loyalty of Doakes well, acknowledging his relationships and instincts as a character.
Episode 567 | "Dexter" | Actor: Erik King | (James Doakes)
Q: How did the character and the show change your life?
Playing such a complex character was gratifying, and the memes and public recognition around Doakes have surprised me, illustrating how much the character resonates with viewers.
Episode 566 | "Caddyshack" | Actor: John Barmon | (Spaulding Smalls)
Q: What's even weirder is that it's also Ted Knight's last movie, which I never knew, you know, it's his last movie. So talk about that. What was Ted like?
Ted was a great guy who didn't like me at first because I ad-libbed in a scene without his knowledge. He eventually accepted it, and we developed a good rapport.
Episode 566 | "Caddyshack" | Actor: John Barmon | (Spaulding Smalls)
Q: Why didn't you go forward and continue this career?
I lost my inspiration after returning to Seattle and eventually transitioned to the hospitality industry and then real estate, without holding regrets about my acting career.
Episode 566 | "Caddyshack" | Actor: John Barmon | (Spaulding Smalls)
Q: Were you listening to Lou? Because I feel like this is a part that you were not, you were looking to audition, that they picked you, you weren't really going for a role?
I was in New York after my sophomore year of college and kind of just hanging out when my friend's agent called and asked me to audition, which led to my casting in Caddyshack.
