Jeff Goldblum has jumped the shark

[spidey07]

I loved this guy. He could play the smart weirdo so well. Not to mention he can devour food without chewing and protect you from engineered dinosaurs.

Awww man...

lol, I love Jeff Goldblum too!!

I'm glad i found someone else out there. I think that the TV show is good for him, he needs that paycheck after all.

 

[JulesMaximus]

Jeff who? Oh yeah, that tall nerdy actor...He has a show?

 

[Spacehead]

I've always liked him as an actor too.

Too bad, it looks like their jumping on the i-see-dead-people bandwagon. Who knows, maybe it'll turn out ok.

He's been around forever. I was watching The Right Stuff, from 1983, and he was in that.

Not only that, it's a new crime-drama-investigation-lawyer one.

So in otherwords, it's a flop.

Has he ever played anything other than a slightly spastic and/or neurotic scientist?

 

[BillyBatson]

he is a great actor! everything he is in he is somewhat quirky, intelligent, and just fun to watch

I don't know. Talk about type-cast.

Incorrect use of the term "jumped the shark".

WOW!
I guess I must be the only person in the world who saw Deep Cover and Fathers & Sons.

(Actually, it is quite possible I am the only person who saw Fathers & Sons.)

 

[dbk]

He was a fly one time.

 

[GasX]

If you ever need evidence that Jeff Goldblum is a horrible actor, just watch him try to be an self-involved eccentric math genius in Jurassic Park or the quirky self-involved computer guy in Independance Day or the quirky self-involved neurosurgeon in Buckaroo Bonzai or the mad self-involved scientist in The Fly.

One dimensional and weird is not talent...

I thought he was funny in Tenspeed and Brownshoe

I don't think doing TV alone means an actor has jumped the shark. There is a ton of money in TV and it affords a degree of predictability in scheduling that makes it appealing even to great actors, hence the fact that Alec Baldwin, James Woods, Patricia Arquette, Ray Liotta, and many, many other successful film actors have made the move to TV in recent years.

Not to mention Keifer Sutherland.

Patricia?
Was she the one with the shemale husband in that one movie?
Crap, I cant think of the name. It was set in New Orleans and I think the plot revolved around the loser sheriff.

Ten Speed and Brown Shoe, not sure if any of you guys are old enough to remember this old TV classic.

was a hilarious detective show starring Jeff Goldblum as Brown Shoe.
