The article title says "Hot actor returns to the stage after wooing Buffy and wowing Sophia". (Loren)

1. he didn't wow me!

2. Scott Hope's name is Fab!?!?

You should see him naked. I mean, really!

Fabrizio, but he's sometimes credited as "Fab."

I can't even.

Fabrizio, but he's sometimes credited as "Fab."

His parents immigrated to Canada from Calabria.

He goes to some lengths in the article to talk about how straight he is. (After QaF and being mentored in theatre by Daniel McIvor and Ken McDougall, maybe he was having trouble getting dates.) Who knew?

With the number of girls like me who fall for gay guys, I would think that might HELP Fab get dates....

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

If he doesn't want people to think he's gay, he should stop going by "Fab." IJS.

Sigh. I suppose I shouldn't automatically bristle upon hearing that, given that Fab is fairly young and just starting his career. But I wish QaF would cast some straight actors that didn't study at Kerr Smith's No, Really, I Promise I'm 100% Real Man School of Public Relations. Couldn't someone just say "nah, I'm not really gay, just an actor. Next question?"

Matt, I'll second your request. If you feel the need to constantly remind us how straight you are after taking the gay role, maybe you just shouldn't take the role...

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.

Sophia - you left your Italics tag open.

What's a shame is that Filipo was obviously comfortable enough with the part to do a great job of it when the cameras were rolling, and had great role models for how to handle the press in Gale Harold, Scott Lowell, Thea Gill, and Michelle Clunie. Maybe having his Buffy character outed in absentia made him a bit oversensitive about the issue?

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Michael C. Hall of 6 Feet Under fame liked to say to the press, "Nobody asks me if I'm a mortician." Then again, he also managed to get married right as the first season was ending IIRC. So, not much with the ambiguity.

I was a Faithite the moment she hit town. I think it was the lesbian subtext, and the screwing Xander. That she later tried to strangle Xander and wondered whether Evil took Mastercard was just icing on the Faith-love cake. She was just pushy enough to imply weakness, and who doesn't love a tough broad who is all melty inside with hidden vulnerability? Especially if said tough broad wears low-cut shirts and can kick above her head. Double especially if she has an existential crisis involving rain and eyeliner.
