My Take
What strikes me about Tom Cavanagh is how much of a journeyman character actor he really is. He carried Ed for four seasons as that easygoing bowling-alley lawyer, then quietly stacked up recurring turns on Scrubs and Providence. To me he's the kind of performer whose name you might forget but whose face you instantly trust. The Flash gave him a late-career showcase, and the fact that a Canadian from Ottawa, Queen's University background and all, built a long American TV run on likability rather than flash says something. I respect that durability more than I do a single breakout role.
