Joe Lo Truglio

Joe Lo Truglio won me over the way he wins over audiences: through warmth. As Charles Boyle on Brooklyn Nine-Nine, he made earnest awkwardness feel heroic, and that performance crystallized a skill he'd honed across The State, Reno 911!, and films like Superbad and Wet Hot American Summer. What I appreciate is that he's a writer as well as a performer, so his comedy comes from structure, not just instinct. The Queens-born, NYU-trained sensibility gives his work a generous, unpretentious quality. He's a quintessential scene-stealer who never steals affection from his castmates, and that generosity is exactly why I keep watching him.
