Discuss.
I hope this lasts longer than Kevin Hill.

Posted: 5/15/06 at 12:08pmKevin Hill had a healthier run than most of the dramas on UPN. Then again, it was also fifty times better than most.

Posted: 5/15/06 at 12:43pmThose kinds of dramas almost ALWAYS do well. Yay Taye!

Posted: 5/15/06 at 3:44pmThis is wonderful for him. I'm very excited. Anyone know when it airs?

Am I the only person who finds Taye Diggs to be a rather cold, humorless presence? I enjoyed his performance in RENT (the stage musical, NOT the movie), but I found him pretty boring in WILD PARTY, WILL & GRACE and the various movies I've seen him in. Granted, he's quite attractive (and what a body!) but as an actor, he's never struck me as being especially exciting.

It would cool to see him on t.v. again. I remember seeing Kevin Hill, before I knew anything about Rent. or anyhthing about him in general. This shall be interesting.
tophertilson: He was on Will & Grace? cool.

No. I find him to be one of the most arrogant actors I have ever met and his acting is mediocre at best. I see no appeal in him whatsoever.

So, I see you must personally know the guy, FOAnatic, to pass judgement and say that he's "arrogant." Yet...something tells me you don't...
At any rate, while not the most brilliant actor around by any means, I think he's pretty darn good. And when compared to others who are getting work on TV, I don't see why it would be so hard to figure out why he's getting work...many actors with less talent are getting plenty of work all the time.
