Wil, I don't see your character "the Evil Wil Wheaton" on Big Bang Theory as being, well, evil. You are just the perfect foil for Sheldon, who, in his own right, is "the Evil Sheldon Cooper, super genius"
Answering a FAQ: "Why do you play so many evil characters lately?"
Every actor has a particular type they can play well, for some reason or another. It doesn't necessarily have anything to do with who we are in real life, but it's just what we do well. Example: Travolta is amazing as the Lovable Loser. When he's in Welcome Back Kotter and Saturday Night Fever i...
Will, you do realize you are "just staff"?
The Eternal Struggle
So this happened last night. I told the tale in pictures and captions on Twitter, and I'm putting it here for the ages. For science. You monster. Hey, Seamus, you're in my spot. Me: Seamus, move! Seamus: But I'm watching Colbert Report! Me: Seamus won't move. Riley: Well, duh. He's wa...
great shirt. I have a geeky idea for one. have you seen the Konica Minolta Bizhub commercial, yanno the one where they go "It's the elder, he who speaks of floppy disks"?

Get Excited And Make Things Revisited
My friend Joel and I got excited and made a thing. We announced it last night, and in about 12 hours, it's become more popular than either of us expected, so this seemed like a good time to revisit Getting Excited And Making Things. I don't know how many of you have been reading my lame blog lo...
when I was in high school, a long long time ago, I worked for a chevy dealer owned by Tom Benson (owner of the Saints). When we had a customer who "thought" he knew it all, we would give him babble like "we adjusted the mercury zundat valve on the fratastrantz". He would usually nod his head knowledgeably and go on his happy way.
on the delivery of technobabble
I was in three scenes yesterday, one of which contained a massive amount of technobabble. For those who don't know what that is: on a sci-fi show, technobabble is what we call pseudoscientific dialog like "I'll have to run a level four diagnostic on the antimatter inversion matrix to be sure." I...
uhhh Wil, I hope that is a really old picture and you have not shaved off the awesome beard. perhaps I missed the memo about your shaving it off.
You do have an awesome brother as he does too.
oh, and I just bought Memories of the Future v1 on Kindle
to boldly go where no clown sweater has gone before
Greetings from Vancouver, where the local hockey club is still in the playoffs, and the sky above our heads is the color of television, tuned to a dead channel (in 1980). I am having a wonderful time on Eureka, keeping notes in my notebook so that I can write about the experience of making these...
