I had never really noticed until now that I’m 40, how GOOD OF AN ACTOR Robert Patrick is. Just think how difficult it must’ve been: playing a disciplined, sceptic nerves-of-steel believable character in a science fiction series, making the character absolutely believable without falling into the T1000 cliche, making the character EMOTIONAL too even tho the series’ point wasn’t about that, showing a subtle range of emotions in a show that needed the characters to be emotionally restricted almost at all times... now that’s an incredibly hard task and he pulled everything out with grace and elegance, never falling into the stereotypical macho display nor the weak substitute of the main character either... incredible, he’s got my absolute respect as an actor. And I thank him for making me believe as a child that robots could be almost demonic in their coldness and lack of feelings!!! He’s a TREASURE!!!
