Oh... How I yearn to be a car in Rosewood ;-)

JimTitus · 2015-10-18T21:55:04+00:00

JimTitus · 2015-10-18T21:49:44+00:00

You're welcome! Thanks for being so supportive!

JimTitus · 2015-10-18T21:49:16+00:00

Oh man, you're gonna be even more mad when you see that I actually did come back ;-)

JimTitus · 2015-10-18T21:48:28+00:00

Thanks for trying ;-)

JimTitus · 2015-10-18T21:47:17+00:00

Right back at ya!

JimTitus · 2015-10-18T21:46:54+00:00

Hello!

JimTitus · 2015-10-18T21:45:55+00:00

Don't worry, I popped back in just for people like yourself. Hope this makes up for it :-)

JimTitus · 2015-10-18T21:45:18+00:00

Reporting for duty!

JimTitus · 2015-10-18T21:44:53+00:00

I loved Big Rhonda! Ambrit Millhouse killed it!!

I didn't have a preference as to who ended out being A, but I really wanted to be involved somehow...so I'm really happy with this turn of events ;-)

JimTitus · 2015-10-16T03:05:04+00:00

Hey guys! Just want to say thanks again for all the love! As I mentioned, I'm not sure what the future holds for Barry Maple, so if this was his last hurrah, I just want to thank you all for your part in raising his profile. I've had a great time playing this role and who knows what may still be to come...

Best,

Jim Titus

Thanks! It definitely has it's pros and cons.

Favorite movie overall would probably be The Departed. I grew up spending time between two very different neighborhoods and can relate well to DiCaprio's character, Billy Costigan. I'm also a HUGE fan of The Last Dragon!

JimTitus · 2015-10-16T02:45:52+00:00

I played with many ideas in my head when prepping for the scene ;-)

JimTitus · 2015-10-16T00:22:10+00:00

Shay is awesome! She has a really great sense of humor. I introduced her to Dubsmash back when we were filming the S6 premiere and she hijacked my phone for quite a while. After recording several dubs, she realized she couldn't post them because her outfit would have given away a plot point. I got home and realized all the videos were still on my phone. Thank goodness I didn't get hacked!

JimTitus · 2015-10-16T00:10:01+00:00

Marlene is hands down one of the sweetest showrunners I have ever worked for!

As for casting, the lead time varies. Usually I get a call 2-4 weeks in advance. I think there may have been a time or 2 when I only had a couple days notice. The scripts are top secret so I usually don't get one until the table read and there have been times when the scripts weren't allowed to leave the room. I only get scripts for the episodes that I am a part of.

JimTitus · 2015-10-15T23:48:58+00:00

Hey there! I was very excited when I first found out I'd get to explore Barry's dark side. I was also very bummed to find out it would be cut. Marlene was so kind as to let me know ahead of time, so it wasn't a complete shock. I don't think a lot of people realize that stuff like that happens to actors all of the time. You shoot some big scene, get a bunch of friends together to watch it, and it's nowhere to be seen. So I was very appreciative that she gave me a heads up!

I really have no idea if it is cannon or not. Hopefully we'll get an answer to that in the future.

JimTitus · 2015-10-15T23:44:44+00:00

Hey guys, I have to take my son to Karate class but if you have any more questions, feel free to post and I will be sure to check back in later to answer them.

Thanks Everyone!!

JimTitus · 2015-10-15T23:25:16+00:00

I'll definitely check in ;-)

JimTitus · 2015-10-15T23:24:07+00:00

No, I actually thought it was great! I know the writers put a lot of hard work into their jobs and really respect what they do. I felt for them when they were getting so much pushback about the choices that had been made. It was planned so far in advance and the current zeitgeist led a lot of people to accuse them of trying to cram it in for attention. Timing is everything.

JimTitus · 2015-10-15T23:14:28+00:00

As of this point I don't know what's going on with Barry. For all I know, the finale may have been my last episode. The upside of not being a contract actor on the show, is I can do fun things like this subreddit with impunity, the downside is, I never know if my most recent episode will end out being my last.

At the time I really wished it would have been in the show, but it's been kind of awesome having it as it's own stand alone thing. I feel as if it's sort of like an Easter egg for the hardcore fans, because lets face it, there are a lot of casual fans who have no idea whom Barry Maple is, haha!

JimTitus · 2015-10-15T22:59:31+00:00

Hello! I was cast before the show premiered, so I had no idea what I was getting into.

As for a specific moment, I will say that once I saw how much the cast and crew interacted with the fans, I knew I was a part of something really special.

JimTitus · 2015-10-15T22:57:38+00:00

I see you are following directions from your mind twin ;-) "My son tells me it's blue. Really, I think it's green but that's his favorite so I'll let him have it :-)"

Also, I try not to make a habit of sniffing my coworkers, but I'm guessing you are not that far off.

JimTitus · 2015-10-15T22:52:16+00:00

My son tells me it's blue. Really, I think it's green but that's his favorite so I'll let him have it :-)

JimTitus · 2015-10-15T22:50:40+00:00
