A shout-out for John Carroll Lynch

Successful "character actors" are a fascinating breed.  They are constantly popping up in one role or another, and nearly always believable in the part.  One of the very best popped up on the latest episode of The Walking Dead (episode 4), rendering a terrific performance as the character "Eastman." Who is he?  John Carroll Lynch.  The dude has been in tons of movies and TV shows.  Here, take a look and you'll recognize him immediately.


The episode was primarily a two-character story that included the back-story of the TWD  character "Morgan."  Lynch was splendid throughout.  It was one of the best acting performances I've seen in a TV show.  I realize many folks are not into TWD, but for those who are, you owe it to yourself to check out Lynch's performance.
