Rob Delaney reminds me of ...


Man, Rob and Sharon are super talented. Great writers, great actors, great show creators. Very funny yet with just the right balance of dramatic meaning and emotional depth. I will look forward with great pleasure to seeing more from these two. Well done!

Oh, yeah, I almost forgot my teaser. You know how when you see an actor for the first time and you know that they remind you of someone you are really familiar with, but you cannot for the life of you think of who that person is? ...

I mean, literally, I would see certain expressions from Rob throughout the first five episodes, and it would be on the tip of my brain over and over again, and then - nothing. *Finally*, about half way through the season one finale, it came to me ...

STEVE MARTIN!

Rob has nuances of Steve Martin, not only in his appearance (eyes especially) and vocal characteristics (tone and delivery), but also in his overall persona. This is a huge compliment. I love Steve Martin. Who doesn't? And to be clear, these similarities are only a fraction of Rob Delaney's appeal. Very cool. Great show. Looking forward to season two!

I see that too. He's a very attractive guy albeit a very normal one - he also looks like Patrick Warburton, I think that's his name.
