SERIOUSLY? Can you give some examples of this so-called jerkiness that apparently is so well-known that we all are familiar with it? Cos I hate being out of the loop like that.

Re: 165

I don't mean that I hate him. I am quite fond of John Barrowman. But his whole persona is built on basically being a loveably arrogant, slightly self-absorbed jerk.

Off hand, the only example to come to mind were reports of him grabbing his castmates in no-touch areas as a joke.

No need for sarcasm. Yeesh, you call someone a jerk, and people automatically assume the worst. If you can watch the man in action and not be aware that he's a larger-than-life persona, then, well, that's you're problem.

Re: 165

[karaokegal.livejournal.com]

I just don't see how being who he is translates as jerkiness and certainly not as being a douchebag. I find his tendency to show the "boys" off around the set absolutely charming and I honestly don't find his persona to be arrogant or self-absorbed in the least.

I do think "jerk" has a certain pejorative quality.

But I apologize for the sarcasm. Rough day.

Re: 165

To show of...the "boys?"

Oh, I hope it doesn't mean what I think it does. Because that would kind of qualify, I would think.
To be honest, there's a certain kind of jerk that is very charming. That's the kind I find him, but I have a tendancy to love people/characters often labeled as "jerks" (the Six Doctor remains my favourite, and it's largely because his ego can barely fit into the TARDIS). Barrowman is flashy and harmlessly arrogant, in my mind, but I can see how it would just bug people who don't like that sort of thing.


But also, I meant the first response more negatively towards the OP, because I'm tired of the "I hate Jack Barrowman, why do all my friends love him?" secrets, mostly because I thought anyone who loves Barrowman would also be able to figure why a lot of people wouldn't.

Re: 165

"The Boys" mean exactly what you think they mean. And Eve Myles' breasts are called The Girls. Both of them make frequent appearances on the Torchwood set, from reliable sources, mostly John himself.

I just find it odd that for an actor who seems to genuinely be a super-duper nice guy, to suddenly be getting this small wave of vituperation, strikes me extremely odd. I assume it's some kind of back-lash because you can't really argue with the looks or the talent, so that just leaves the possibility that he's actually not a nice guy.

But I find it hard to believe. Obviously I don't know him personally and we all have a dark side somewhere, but his live appearances, interviews, etc are just so consistent in showing him to be extremely loveable. In fact, I'll make a big leap here and say that one reason the J/I fen refuse to accept that Jack Harkness really is a bastard is because they know what a sweetie John Barrowman is in real life.
