Confession: I'm a huge fan of 1998's Can't Hardly Wait. It came out the summer I graduated from high school so it had particularly relevant timing for me. And, based solely on that film, I will always have a soft spot for Peter Facinelli. The fact that he married another one of my faves, 90210's Jennie Garth, also helps a tad (see below for a Chelsea Lately clip of how friggin' adorable they are). But then it kinda felt like he slipped and did Z-grade stuff (apologies to the fans of Hollow Man II — clearly there were many unanswered questions from the first invisible dude saga).
So I'm happy that Facinelli has returned to the pop culture sphere with roles, oddly both doctors, in Twilight and Showtime's Nurse Jackie, which premieres tonight! Are you planning to welcome Facinelli back into the pop culture fray by tuning in for Jackie, PopWatchers? What other '90s star do you miss?
hey let’s nor forget his roles on Six Feet Under and Damages.. hardly Z-grade shows!
LOVE peter! i thought fastlane was a great show. totally underappreciated.
You forgot FASTLANE!!!!! the awesomest of shows..
tim stack. i wholeheartedly agree with you (except on nurse jackie, since i don’t have showtime). i’m moving to new york in a couple of weeks – can we be friends?
Love him! He is totally turning into a great character actor- dependable too in his solid performances. LOVE HIM!!! He should totally be in a spinoff of Twilight based on Carlisle.
Tim, You often write like the wise old man of Popwatch and you graduated high school in 1998!?!
I already watched the first episode on Fancast – it was Friggin Fantabulous!!! I am sooo glad Peter is back
He was also VERY awesome in Damages. Really very awesome.
I adore Peter. I;d love him and Pattinson to do a different film together away from the Twilight rubbish.
I also love Cant Hardly Wait, and Peter F. Him and Jennie Garth are adorable together!
Okay, so not the point of this post – but I’m kinda grossed out that Jennie doesn’t use deodorant, is that like the “in thing” for women these days?
Hahahaha! I thought that was too funny. They’re both crack ups… I thought it was funny how he tried to play it off that she has tissue coming out of her shirt he probably thought the audience would think she stuffed her bra or something…. and they do look adorable together. I love him on Nurse Jackie… he’s hillarious… classic!
Its such as you read my mind! You seem to grasp so much approximately this, such as you wrote the e-book in it or something. I believe that you simply could do with a few percent to pressure the message house a little bit, however other than that, that is fantastic blog. A great read. I will definitely be back.
