The one that really made me laugh is when I started watching The Man in the High Castle. I could just not take Steven Root seriously as a save-the-world kind of guy with Other-World films - I’d always picture him mumbling about his red stapler.

Well, I had seen him as the IRobot Corporate Director in "Bicentennial Man", the blind Radio Station manager in "O Brother, Where Art Thou?" and "The odd nerd in BASEketball" so it wasn't a stretch for me to see him as another character in TMITHC.

I love seeing Stephen Root in anything, just like the other great character actor in Office Space, Diedrich Bader (also in Napoleon Dynamite).

Love them both! Root was a crooked judge in ‘Justified’ and was really good. He was also in ‘News Radio’ which was also a lot of fun.

Bader was on Drew Carey for-ever and he had his own short-lived family sit-com for a while last year.
