My Take

Eric Mabius is one of those actors who had a genuinely perfect role handed to him and absolutely delivered — Daniel Meade on Ugly Betty was equal parts clueless himbo and slowly-redeemable human being, and Mabius played that arc with real charm over four seasons. What I find interesting about him is the path: a Sarah Lawrence cinema studies grad who cut his teeth in indie film, debuting in Todd Solondz's bleak cult classic Welcome to the Dollhouse in 1995, before landing television stardom a decade later. He never screamed "network TV lead," which is exactly why it worked. He's the rare actor who brought genuine warmth to a character who could have been pure punchline.
