Golden Globe Award Winner Frances Conroy ("Six Feet Under") guest stars as the victim's aristocratic mother-in-law, Elspeth Cook.


Gideon plays Owen Melling. It's probably a small part, and if his audition is any indication of his fate...

Spoiler:

...he's going to get shot.

Ohhhh... so that's why he said that on his Facebook page!! I was wondering. His comment about

[Lilly]

Yes!

Spoiler:

And he said he got rug burns to show for it.

Gideon has on a new gig (guest starring, I believe) on NCIS: Los Angeles. And the best part is -- he's working with his Moonlight director, Dennis Smith!

Woot! That's great. I hope he has a nice, juicy role in this one.

[Lilly]

Me too.

I'm intrigued by the banana...

[Lilly]

I'm thinking ... healthy snack.

[darkstarrising]

Cool!! Gideon makes one very convincing villain....wonder if he's going to be one in NCIS LA?

Seeing him without the Donovan Shepherd 'do, he looks so very different.

I'm thinking ... healthy snack.

But with a certain, Magritte-like placement in the picture.

He looks much younger and healthier in that pic than in some of his roles. Nice pic!

It is a great pic, isn't it?


It looks like it's going to be Episode 2.21, as that's the one Dennis Smith is directing. They just aired 2.19, so it looks like they're on a pretty tight schedule like H50.

Just a reminder from Gid himself via Facebook:

" Catch me tonight at 10pm on CBS in The Mentalist. It will be brief and noisy. ; -) "



ETA: From Twitter:

"Staying in tonight? Catch me in The Mentalist on CBS at 10pm. It will be bad, brief and bloody. Enough said."

[librarian_7]

Well, I don't normally watch that show, but for Gid, I'll make an exception.

LOL! I love his sense of humor. Too bad it looks like a small part.
