Cal/Timothy Busfield Appreciation Thread #1 - 'Cause he directs the whole show!

The Cal Shanley and Timothy Busfield Appreciation Thread




We love Cal because..

01. Because he left Wes on the air.
02. Because he thought Danny wouldn't find out about the snake.
03. Because he got into the Christmas spirit.
04. Because "let's get rid of demented Santa!"
05. Because he's good with props.
06. Because he's a sexy beast.
07. Because he's our King Calbert
08. Because he employs animals
09. Because he can make coconut snow
10. Because he does great insinuations (see THD pt2)
11. Because he's the only one who gets how the west coast delay works
12. Because he's the source of lots of amusement


A Tale of King Calbert and His Subjects

<< King Cal on a particularly stressful day

<< Queen Christine

<< King Cal

<< Princess Mandy

<< Court Jester Avery

<< Duchess Ellie (talking about Christine, Mandy, and Avery)

Aw, I loved Timothy's scenes with Ed Asner in "The Wrap Party". Very touching.

He had a few great scenes so far. I really like the actor. I was glad when I saw him on board in the pilot.

I love that he's directed the last two episodes. I love when actors direct It even made up for him not being in last week's episode at all!

He's really great. My mom watches the show with me and she's loved him for a long time. That Tars and Spars thing a few eppys ago was lovely.

My mom really likes him too. She says he used to be on thirtysomething.

I've been meaning to share my adoration for Cal for awhile now (prb since the Wrap Party, maybe since the first show). I love Timothy Busfield. I adored him as Danny on the WW and he is just loveable as Cal. I liked him last week, trying to protect Ricky and Ron a little bit for their mess up with the timing but still being on Matt's side. I heart him a lot.

I'd like to see more of him. The little we get is good but I wish we saw more.

IA. I would love to see more Cal. There's a whole lot of characters though so I guess it's hard to give everyone but the major leads a lot of screen time. I hope we get some more stories where he's a focal point, like in the Wrap Party. That showed such a great aspect of his character.

I wonder if his directing some of the episodes might keep him out of episodes. I remember something like that happen when Clooney started to direct episodes of E.R when he was still on the show.

Hm. I don't know. I'm sure he's contracted to a certain amount of episodes. Maybe they took the fact that he was going to be directing into that...

That's a good possiblity. The more he directs each episode, the less we'll probably see of him.

I just hope we get to see him more in the episodes he doesn't direct. We need more Cal
