The man with a thousand names (well, five)

Who is the best cameo actor ever?

No it's not Joe's mum in all those porn movies. (You know the ones I'm talking about catholic sluts go wild episodes 1 through to 7).

The answer is Eric Balfour here is a picture:



He truly is the cameo king appearing in all of your favourite American imports. I'll give a list of the stuff I've seen him in.

Buffy the vampire slayer season 1 episode 1 "Welcome to the hellmouth" as Jessie
Clueless (Tv series) as Pizza boy
Dawsons Creek as Warren Goering
The West Wing as Frat boy 3
American Sweethearts (film) as Security Guard
24 as Milo Pressman
Six Feet Under as Gabriel Dimas
The O.C as Eddie

He was also in the dreadful remake of the Texas Chainsaw masscre (there are just some films you don't try to remake).

Anyway in my household (until 5 mins ago) he was simply known as Milo Gabriel Jessie Eddie Monk. The first four names came from various TV shows (check the list above). (The Monk came from the fact his face was vaguely shaped like this guy I knew from school called Chris Monk).

He never carries a TV show, he is only ever in it for a couple of episodes and often his character is killed.
I implore all of you to watch for him.
Milo Gabriel Jessie Eddie Monk you truly are American TV's Wheres Wally.
