We already have our general 'what are you looking forward to the most' poll for all of Damien's upcoming projects, but with 4 upcoming TV shows starring our fave actor....
Which Damien TV character / project are you most excited to see?
Are you more excited to see a known character returning, or a competely new character?
At the moment I'd say Robert Putnam just because it sounds so different to anything Damien has done before. I love period drama but I think this is going to be period drama with a real twist.
muahahahahahaha....
The funny thing is I am usually the last to vote because they are too hard to decide between!
Yes, 'Period Drama' as a genre usually conjures up a certain vision.... But Jenji Kohan's vision is going to smash that. She is a unique and gifted voice, TDYK is such a thrilling prospect.
Oh, man! I don't know if I can choose! I have a warm spot in my heart for Jack Weston, but I'm very interested in meeting Robert Putnam, and the idea of having Damien on HBO, on my own continent for a change, really makes me happy. The potential sexy factor of TDYK may tip the scales in that direction. Hmmm...

I feel like I can't vote until we find out more about the Unnamed E4 comedy drama. I mean, I'm looking forward to Damien on HBO hopefully getting more exposure here. But I'm also missing Damien's brilliance for comedy.

I have to say that I have been very keen to see Damien in "The Devil You Know" after the plot was revealed. Very twisted story and I can't wait to see his performance as Robert Putnam. I wait for the other projects too, I'm excited about Suspects but then again I know what to wait, classic Jack. Danny in Clean Break could be other Hal character, so I have already some kind of picture in my head what I will see and I'm not sure what will happen in the comedy so Robert Putnam is right now something I'm most excited to see (from these opinions, don't forget Tiger Raid), could be something different and exciting, something we haven't seen yet.
Hmmm.... this is hard! I love Jack Weston, but much as I'm looking forward to seeing him back on my tv, I must admit that the idea of seeing Damien as an entirely new character is very tantalising!
With so much else looming on the horizon, an entirely unknown character in an unknown show is a bit too lacking in details to have really fired my imagination so far. But - Robert Putnam......yes!! TDYK looks very exciting....... I know you said for the purposes of this poll to imagine that TDYK is happening, domino - but I'm finding it hard with the lack of news....and as exciting as the prospect is - it does feel a bit intangible still. Danny Quinn......well, I'm really looking forward to meeting Danny. I'm actually quite surprised how mich the little we've seen/heard about Clean Break has increased my anticipation. After a very long wait - knowing virtually nothing about it - it's almost in sight. That feels exciting!
I think it's between Robert and Danny......I think I need to consider it a bit longer........but - and .I'm quite surprised to find myself saying this - I just might vote for Danny!
So glad I missed seeing this until today. I'm smitten with Danny already... but should I vote now, or wait a few days for the initial excitement from that trailer to abate a bit?

At the risk of being slightly hypocritical, whimsy.....I say you should vote now - because right now that's what you're excited about. You'll just need to do another poll for what you're excited about tomorrow!
So I gave myself a cool-down period, with mixed success as really there's never "cooling down" thinking about his characters. But I wanted to be sure it wasn't a trigger happy vote on the next shiny thing...
The idea behind The Devil You Know is enticing, but 1) it's fate is still up in the air and 2) I don't know a single thing about what kind of character Robert Putnam will be. We have a partial shot of Damien clowning around during filming, but the girls were not in character so chances are he wasn't either. All we have are his eyes. So I really have nothing to go by for Robert, except the general sense that I might see him naked. LOL
I love Jack. Adore his caped-crusader dogged pursuit of the bad guy, even putting his own job on the line. Love his recklessness, his wit, his potty mouth, his wardrobe... Love Damien's mad improvisation skills. Buy all that waffling by ch 5 has put a damper on my excitement about seeing him as Jack right at this moment.
The new comedy is just too new and unknown to formulate an opinion on.
Danny IS the new shiny thing. But we've also had a glimpse into him, through the trailers and Damien's own assessment of his character. Young, hopeful, tormented. I very much like. So a Danny vote for me!

It would be quite interesting if you could do a poll in which people could vote, say....once a week. It'd make it easier knowing that you could change your mind/vote later .....and I'd love to see the way the results ebbed and flowed according to news etc. Not that I want to change my mind atm - I'm quite happy with the way I voted - but you never know what might be just around the corner to change my mind!
Thanks for voting whimsy - the gap between Robert Putnam and Danny Quinn is closing!
Interesting that there are so many votes for Robert seeing a we know nothing about him except for him being a son of Thomas... so the votes must purely be based on what we know so far about TDYK.
fifi, the only way to do that would be to do a new poll each week. But we could do a new one when we have all the info on all the characters!
i didn't really think you could domino....I was just musing out loud really. And by the time we find out about Robert, Danny will probably be old news! I feel a bit bad for Jack at the moment to be honest.....I feel the result of this poll doesn't adequately represent how much I'm looking to saying #JackisBack!
