On last night’s episode of The City, Roxy Olin asked her father, actor Ken Olin (thirtysomething, Brothers & Sisters), for more money so she could get her own place. Hearing that he shot her down — he told her she could move back home and walk the dogs — made me watch my first minute of The City ever.

Awesome. I’ve always liked Ken Olin.
Is Roxy working for free on “Brothers & Sisters” that she didn’t have any money?
Ken Olin directed a bunch of awesome episodes of Alias, maybe there can be a cross over episode where he gets Jack Bristow to make everyone on the City (and the hills for that matter) to never be seen or heard from again.
had no idea she was his daughter
P.S Mandi, was your I-Pod ever returned to you?
How much more do I adore Ken Olin than I did before? What a good dad!
Holy crap. She’s a brunette clone of Patricia Wettig.
She’s the spitting image of her mother no doubt.
I’ve always liked him since “30 Something” and now I respect him as well. Way to go KEN OLIN!
I adore The City anyway but having Ken Olin show up and actually show up and parent like a normal parent was wonderful. I also thought it was good of Roxy not to pitch a fit and beg..she pouted (seriously, who wouldn’t?) and then got her ducks in a row…kudos to the Olin family!!!!
Me too always loved Ken Olin-was so surprised when I saw him-she does look just like her mama Ken & Patricia are great actors-they taught Roxie well!
*i meant “show up and actually parent….take out the first “show up”. Yikes, I must proofread in the future!
I also had no idea that she was Ken Olin and Patricia Wettig’s daughter. Now that I know, it’s amazing how much she looks like her mother.
Why are folks mature enough to remember Alias, let alone Thirtysomething watching the city?
i never put together that was Ken Olin from thirtysomething!! i loved him on thirtysomething and last night — without realizing it was the same dude — i was so impressed with the way he handled his daughter respectfully but firm. can’t believe i didn’t realize who her parents are – very cool!
I can’t get over how much Roxy Olin looks and acts like her mother. The mannerisms are positvely uncanny…
