I posted on Twitter today. None of the actors pictured in the tweet have been profiled here at STVC but their careers fit, or more or less fit, the STVC mold. The dude on the left fits perfectly; the woman in the middle is more beautiful than typical for a character actor but she’s done her share of supporting roles on TV; the actor on the right is a bit of a squeeze but his body of work is building. What makes them a nice group is their names – all gender-unspecific and therefore good for a guessing game.
The answer to the Twitter Mini Quiz is: (left) Chris Owen (middle) Dee Hartford (right) Parker Sawyers.
Remember Chris from the State Farm commercial where he pulls up next to a guy in a car and tries to tempt him to drag race with an aggressive, “Wanna go, Bro?” This actor with a youthful face has worked in films and had guest roles in television all the way back to the Picket Fences TV series of the 90s. Dee is probably most memorable as an unfulfilled, and disagreeable, wife and mother in the Bewitchin’ Pool episode on the originalTwilight Zone. Parker had a recurring role on the obscure TV series Deep State and was a regular on the short-lived thriller series Cheat. (He has the romantic male lead in the 2016 motion picture Southside With You, portraying Barak Obama.)
Gotta love ‘em.
