I thought Kristen sounded so different from what I was expecting. She doesn't sound like Veronica at all; she's much softer and girlie and reminded me of another actress I can't remember right now. Jason also sounded very different; his voice sounded deeper or more grown-up -- I definitely sensed that he tries to make Logan sound like a kid. Teddy was different in the sense that he seems to dial down a lot of his personality and charm when he plays Duncan, and I guess this is supposed to be due to the meds, but IMO is a mistake, because your first job as an actor is to make people want to see you on their screen and not fast-forward or change the channel.

Student Council: The Meet Market
» Jump to Post I think Francis was the funniest overall, and not just because he dresses like he just climed out of P. Diddy's limo after being sprung from the joint, like, "Honey, are you sure my other gold chains are at the cleaners?" He cracked me up. Kristen was pretty listless, Rico is such a mensch, Teddy is a policy wonk who loves political talk shows (and Percy teased him about watching C-SPAN all the time, since they live together huh). Percy is king of the prom and class clown and everything else you can be voted. Rob said "Television without Pity" every time he opened his mouth, and the first time he said it, Jason clapped enthusiastically like he reads it, too, and it made me kind of feel bad that we have a thread making fun of him for being a Scientologist.
-(prvs page in that forum) I loved how much Jason praised Kristen and said how wonderful she was. He seems like a really intelligent, thoughtful guy.
» Jump to Post -That Jason Dohring is easy on the eyes. --I'm glad you said it first, because I felt slightly ashamed that I spent the whole time staring at him. But there was a reason -- I was looking for something specifically in his physical demeanor that would indicate whether he created these mannerisms for Logan or if that's just Jason, and what I saw actually brought tears to my eyes. That kid is a fucking genius. But more on that in another thread...

Jason Dohring: Yes, He's Married. » Jump to Post
I like actors who really inhabit a role physically, who have interesting mannerisms that are consistent. Jason has himself described Logan as all about “force” and I think this comes through not just in the physical altercations he consistently finds himself in, but in instances like the police station in “Mars vs. Mars” where he doesn’t just get up out of the chair, he explodes out of the chair. He has so much energy and physicality that connotes emotion even when he’s not talking, and I think this is one of the reasons that Logan has become such a compelling character.
I’ve noticed from re-watching episodes (which I never did until recently) a couple specific mannerisms that I find interesting, and the main one is that Logan likes to prop one leg up on something both when he’s sitting and when he’s standing. You’ll notice scenes with him in the Jeep, when he’s in the passenger seat, he always has one foot up on the dashboard. It’s very boyish and cute. When he goes in to look at the video in “Mars vs. Mars” he stands but puts one foot up on a chair. When he doesn’t have something to prop his feet on, he sits, sort of slouching, with his legs spread wide open, often spread around Lilly when he’s with her. So I started to think that this guy just can’t keep his knees together.
When I went to the Paley Festival, one of the reasons I was really hoping for Jason to be there was so that I could see if this is just how he sits. So I watched him come in and sit down, and he had a very low table in front of him, so I assumed he’d put one foot up on the table. And not only did he not do that, but he actually crossed his legs, and sat with his legs crossed for the entire hour on stage. He was extremely calm and composed, grown-up and professional, and I just marveled at how he really gets that Logan is only 16 (and a hyper-emotional 16), and the physicality that Jason creates is perfect for a 16-year-old. Everything about Jason’s demeanor is the opposite of Logan, not just physically but even the cadence of his voice, and I thought that was just incredibly beautiful.
