Thank you for showing up here, and for posting.
You created one of the most evolved characters in TV history. Daggett is a Man, with a capital M, or, as members of my tribe would say, a Mensch.
#FareTheeWellDaggett
He was fantastic throughout this series.
shareWhen/ where did he post? I missed that!

He apparently posted in sign_in's Tawney thread, but I seriously doubt that's really the actor. Far more believable someone impersonating him.
In any case he really did a stand out job on this series.
lol No wonder I missed it. I have that poster on Ignore.

It's possible it's not really JD Evermore. But actors are people, too, and some do frequent the message boards.
I have an actor friend (reminds me of the line in A Streetcar named Desire,"I have a lawyer friend") who is on Facebook and on several message boards and online discussion groups. Why wouldn't an actor in the series come here to see what's being said about it?

Yes, for example, Stevie Nicks doesn't do social media at all (and when she appears, it' not here but one of her staff), but David Crosby frequently responds to fan Tweets ob Twitter. Some performing artists really like social media, like so many of the rest of us.

That title goes to Teddy, hands down

I missed this but it isn't surprising. He's a very nice fellow, smart too. Appreciates his fans. We follow each other on Twitter.
Thanks, JD!
"Oh, I'll be polite. Right up until I'm rude."
It is kind of weird for a pretty recognizable actor to come on a message board and go after someone on here. I'm not saying he was wrong in what he said, cause sign_in_1234 is a jacka$$, but it was unusual if it really is JD Evermore.

So that WAS him, Helen?!!! I wasn't sure what to think. WHOA! Now I wish I would have talked/replied with him, however brief.
sharewhile it might be believable, it was sign who "confirmed it" taking away the credibility somewhat,
and his reasoning was "he did the analytics" on it,
I have no way of knowing of course. And never saw the posts. But it's believable that it might well be, since he enjoys some interaction with fans now and then.
Can't hurt to say thank you!
"Oh, I'll be polite. Right up until I'm rude."
call me a skeptic, but i don't think the real JD evermore would have reacted the way he did,
and the fact that sign used "analytics" to confirm it was JD evermore makes it even less likely,
i wouldn't be surprised if the acount was a sock puppet account of sign's(who oddly enough i suspected to be whatlarks split personality, not an alt, he loses time and posts as sign, that was a little rhyme,)

id rather wonder why there were memorial pages set up for sandy hook victims the day before the shooting, who cares about the bloody moon, all it does is make me hairy and eat things
Maybe he is a white liberal kanye west "imma let you finish but Daniel holden was one of the most innocent sad characters of all time, and deserves to win this golden globe...for best actress...*beep* wrong category, sorry yall, donald trump does not care about Daniel people"
call me a skeptic, but i don't think the real JD evermore would have reacted the way he did,
that is circumstantial evidence,
it could be a sock puppet account,
and yes sign has made people feel that way
ijust figure with the time JD evermore has spent with ray mckinnon, aswell his age, and time in the industry he would know better then to be triggered by a troll,
i think the chance that it is JD evermore is maybe a little higher then Daniel actually committing the deed,
how ever i may be wrong, it just seems highly unprobable, especially considering Mckinnons stance on the ending, and the only one who "confirmed" it was evermore was sign,

Well, for the record, I thought Daggett was an interesting and integral character. He was needed to show the difference in a sheriff who fell under the spell of Foulkes and one who is now willing to doubt that they convicted the right person.
Also, I thought Evermore was convincing. He played Daggett as a dug in authority figure skeptical of Daniel, who finally came around to realizing that his department -- and mentors -- may have made mistakes. He was the image of a small town southern sheriff, very familiar to anyone who has ever known one.

I hope it was him, because it's nice to have someone from the show posting on here.
As for the character. Daggett went on a journey just like the other characters and I've enjoyed watching how his opinions changed over the series.

You're right, Sign, that they did rehabilitate Sheriff Daggett, especially in Season 4.
But Season 4 softened everybody: Amantha was not nearly as aggressively angry as she had been, Teddy certainly changed, Daggett, and Daniel....finally, with the help of Chloe and his house buddies and counseling. They were preparing for that ending, obviously.

Yeah whether it's sign in himself or just some other obsessed fan posing as him, those are far more likely than the actual actor posting here. To believe it's actually him is a little absurd.
share[deleted]
Wouldn't you all agree that any actor who rages at fans because they don't agree with a fan's interpretation of a fictional show, is a little unstable?
[deleted]

He's a person, just like you and me,
Funny thing about these actors. They live a life, get married, divorced, have kids, and worries like the rest of us. They even DIE!!! And you know what? I bet they use toilet paper too!!! *gasp*
Please understand I'm not in anyway being sarcastic with you, I think it's great that you know an actor. I wish I did. I'm just saying that actors are people, they're human, and they want to make a living in the entertainment industry. BUT! They're just people, as you say, like you and me. :)

Ever see Catfish? Actors are people but it's more likely to be a random person than JD Evermore showing up on an IMDB forum just to tell sign_in to get coffee cracked. People causing mischief online is common, actors posting on their imdb pages is rare.
And with sign_in ranting about alpha/beta males lately like he's been reading too many AskMen articles, maybe he split into two personalites and his alpha/beta turned into JD Evermore.
mme.... bill cosby doesn't count as an actor or another person!
sharemme.... bill cosby doesn't count as an actor or another person!
i was being stupid,
but i honestly don't consider someone who date-rapes 50 women a person,
they count as sub-human, basket of deplorables:P
i don't know why bill cosby jumped into my head, i knew it wasn't him
maybe i just wanted to rip on bill cosby, sometimes i type things without thinking..
I hope he gets an award . He was in many ways the thread of rational thinking that comes from a deep sense of fairness and need to discover the truth. Great character and made
Even greater by his acting. He should have his own show .shame to never see his character again.

I believe it was JD Evermore and whether as Harley on TWD or Det. Sibley on Treme or Sheriff Daggett on Rectify, this actor can deliver the goods. I hope he moves from character actor (not that there's anything wrong with that; many of the best thespians have been character actors) to leading man status soon.
Lots of performing artists use social media; why should they be any different than the rest of us in liking t? (Other than, of course, the time they put into their work - 14 hour days from makeup to filming; interviews, et al.) Character actors don't get paid enough given their long days; then all that time spent reading scripts, auditioning, all of that unbillable hours.
Check him out on Treme.

JD Evermore is the Gary Cooper of our time. I mean that as a compliment.
And he liked my Tweet!
