Patrick Fischler

I have a real fondness for character actors, and Patrick Fischler is a perfect example. You know the face from Mad Men's Jimmy Barrett, Lost's Phil, Southland, Curb Your Enthusiasm, and Grey's Anatomy, even if his name slips your mind. Trained at NYU's Tisch School, he brings a distinctive, slightly unsettling texture to every scene he appears in. Performers like him are the connective tissue of ensemble storytelling, elevating shows without demanding the lead. His résumé may not be heavy with trophies, but I value the actor a set genuinely relies on, and Fischler clearly earns that reliance.
