After auditioning 13 times in the last 4 years, my son Darrin finally has booked a co-star on GRIMM. Looks like 13 is a lucky number for him. He'll be flying to Portland, Oregon next weekend...they shoot on Monday the 21st. I have lots of cousins in that area that can't wait for him to visit.

If there are any GRIMM watchers out there...I'll post the episode date and time when I know it.

Thanks guys! Darrin is not only a great son, but he's also a strong supporter of my film hobby. When he comes home we always watch a projected film. He loves them as much as I do.

Clinton...I watched the first season and part of the second. I liked it, but I have a hard time watching anything on a regular basis. I tend to binge watch [Smile]

[Smile]

The special effects are very good in this show. Darrin has auditioned for several Wesen characters...but he's normal in this part [Smile]

That's great Janice, my wife and I have seen every episode. My wife is from Portland so I think that adds to her appreciation of it. Will he be in the upcoming season or the next?

Let's hope Darrin can use his persuasive powers in showbiz world to land you your own documentary on vintage film collecting and projector repairs in the 21st Century Janice!

Now that would be one episode worth watching on catch up TV! [Big Grin]

Well Andrew...I don't know how much persuasive powers he has at this point in his career...but, GRIMM did show a hand-cranked projector in Season 1 [Smile]

[Smile]

That was pretty cool!

WOW! That's great! At first I though I missed it. I can't wait to watch it. My film career is moving along ok. My biggest role is coming 2016 with Steven Seagal. If all goes as planned, I will have a small supporting role. I can't say the title yet. It's kind of hush right now. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

@Pat...No you haven't missed his episode 7 yet. The series is taking a break between now and the next episode on Jan. 22nd. We are also still waiting for Darrin's name to be added to the cast list on IMDB [Smile]

[Smile]

@James...Thank you for the support and yes it's a very tough business. However, Darrin loves what he does and is grateful for every booking he gets.

Last night was an exciting night for Glesser family and friends. Darrin made his TV debut on GRIMM. He did a great job of freaking out when he saw a Wesen (you Grimm watchers know what they are... [Smile]

[Smile]

)

Here he is in action [Cool]

Oh, I thought he was the scruffy dude who got shot and killed in the jail cell. We watch GRIMM all the time anyhow. Good luck to you're son on his career. Even a small role can open doors.

I watched it on the DVR last night, he freaked out pretty good. It was a short but exciting role. Hopefully they bring him back, he has seen a Wesen.
