shipperxSo I'm off work today and being a slug because of the heat.
Anyway, I tuned into One Life to Live to catch Nathan Fillion's guest spot. I did hee over all of his on-screen siblings mocking him for his teenaged affair with Dorian (back when Nathan Fillion was on the show.) It struck me during the scene of siblings drinking after their grandfather's funeral that none of the actors playing his siblings actually played his sibling while he was on the show. And they aren't all from the current version of the show, either. The guy playing his brother also isn't on the show these days. It's like they cherry picked which actors they wanted to create the family (with the exception of the actresses who play his younger sisters as they currently work on the show.) I thought Fillion (Joe) and Dan Gautier(Kevin) did a good job of looking like and portraying brothers... even though chances are pretty darn good that they met each other for the first time during the shoot. (Since Nathan's "Joey" played opposite a different incarnation "Kevin". Heck, for that matter, Nathan's Joey had a different actor who played his father when he was on the show. Only his mother Viki, Uncle Bo, and his ex-lover Dorian were the same actors as when he was on the show.
