I didn't even realize that was Tom Berenger when I watched it.

Well deserved win for fantastic work in a History channel mini-series that was far better than I ever imagined it could be.

It only took me an extra second to identify him, but I definitely did a double take when I first saw his character.

His original quote about the character of Jim Vance was " a raccoon with rabies, a psychopath, a misogynist, and throw in a pinch of Bruce Dern. That's the recipe."

I'd say that's actually a right fair approximation of good ol' Uncle Jim.

no GoT, boo and hiss. WTG Modern Family. Best show out there!

Nice job accepting Martin Freeman's Emmy, Berenger.

I still can't believe Sherlock didn't get ANYTHING. I can accept that Benedict Cumberbatch lost, but to Kevin Costner? Really?

They always picks the actor who plays the guy with a mental handicap. How else do you explain that miniseries other than a bunch of retards fighting over a pig.

Probably cos it's a British show

He was very good... In general, the show itself was the best thing i've seen on television, maybe ever.

Just logged in for the first time in a long while to say that Tom Berenger is the biggest prick I have ever met.

Maybe you caught him on a bad day. My sis and BiL met him (and were extras) in one of his straight-to-video Sniper movies shot in Thailand a few years ago and had nothing but nice things to say about him.

They could have just skipped the metaphor and gone with "Steve Buscemi"

Holy shiat, that was Tom Berenger. That was some mighty fine acting.

Must have caught him on a bad decade. *former neighbor*

Ok, you definitely have a vastly different perspective than my kin.

Any details?
