As in whatever happened to”?


So he was the host of ”Talk Soup,” the show with the the stupid name on MTV, the network of stupidity, then he blowjobbed his way into a Jack Nicholson movie that also unfortunately also featured another third-echelon “star,” Helen Hunt, then he sank
below the river of Fire in Dante’s 9th circle of Hell, where, as Dostoyevsky wrote, “these God forgets.” These are the most chilling words in all of world literature.

Weird as he's been working regularly since the late '80s early 90s all the way up until now. He was definitely a household name there for several years. I don't know why people seem to have lose interest in him, you don't hear much about him anymore at all even though he's still working continuously. I did like him a lot though back in the day for sure.

Seemed like he was on the verge of becoming an A-lister for a while, but then something happened.

I think Stuck On You (or whatever it was called with Matt Damon) really helped anchor him along with a few other movies leading up to that, but then he ended up in some forgettable films and stinkers thereafter and then fell off the radar.

I've always liked him. Saw him in some Amazon film a week ago. Pretty decent.

Idk what happened - I assumed he moved into TV because of the variety and because I feel I've seem him star in a few things unexpectedly. Maybe he's too nice for Hollywood?

I liked him in little miss sunshine

Talk Soup was on E! Not Mtv.
