I thank you for suggesting the title should be something Hercules related.

Just a little OT: has anyone seen Tomorrow People? I wonder if it would be worth watching.

I've only seen the trailer of Tomorrow People, and I kind of liked it.

And if I could go a bit personal regarding the thread's title: this song from Hercules always gives me a lot of encouraging and strength. And not just because of the song itself, but once I asked through FB a musical actor to sing it on his solo event (I had a pretty bad week, and I thought it would be nice to hear it from him), and he replied, he can't fit it into his program, but then he finally did sing it. I was just melting away (and almost crying) in my seat right there.
Btw here's the song from that guy, although this video was not taken on the mentioned solo event: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xF3AFVB1JAM

I watch it and love it too! I'm looking forward to see Robert on the show, it will be awesome to see him in a show I actually follow, like it was for Baby Daddy. I do hope he will have a little more screentime this time.

Just let me know if you're interested in some more recommendations regarding him, and I could send you a PM (as it's kind of an OT here) with some more YT links.

According to the IMDB, Robert's episode of "The Tomorrow People," titled The Citadel, is airing January 15 at 9 PM on the CW. As always, please check your local listings for the times in your area.

May contain SPOILERS so please read at your own risk. Thanks!

Here is a synopsis: After Stephen returns from the brink of death he thinks he has a clue about what happened to his father, but his fellow Tomorrow People are not sure they believe him. When The Tomorrow People learn some disappointing news from John , they make an unexpected decision about their future and when they finally get a lead on Ultra’s secret research lab they devise a dangerous plan to free all those being held captive there. Meanwhile, Stephen’s mom introduces Stephen and his brother Luca to a new man she is dating, but Stephen is having a hard time getting a read on him.

I just finished watching "The Secret Life of the American Teenager" on Netflix and started smiling when I saw Robert as Mr. Martin. I almost didn't recognize him since he was not a blonde, but a dark brunette. I wished his role was longer.
