Deine Gehässigkeit ist hier unangebracht. Aber halt…Man hat es ihm ja gewünscht, dass er keinen Erfolg hat. Verständlich nach den Äußerungen, die er in Interviews zu House und dem Thema Theater gemacht hat.
Traurig, dass ich sowas hier lesen musste.
Dito. Ich werde ihm „That makes one of us“ zu einem House-liebenden Jungen nicht so schnell verzeihen.
Warst du dabei, als er die Worte gesagt hat? Hast du seinen Tonfall gehört? Oder seine Körpersprache gesehen? Ich denke nicht. Also sollte man sehr vorsichtig sein, mit solchen Vorurteilen.
Ich weiß nicht, wo du noch so unterwegs bist. Bisher habe ich dich nur auf HHOW lesen dürfen.
Vllt. solltest du auch auf anderen Seiten lesen. ( Wenn du es tust..sorry).Robert ist nie der Typ gewesen, der seine Aussagen ’schön‘ färbt. Er sagt es, wie ihm der Schnabel gewachsen ist. Er sagt es nicht „Lady like“
Ein Hugh Laurie sagt seine Meinung britisch korrekt. Ist er dadurch ein besserer, ein Fankompaktibler, Mensch? Wohl kaum.Worte können missinterpretiert werden und man sollte verdammt vorsichtig sein, was man in Aussagen hineininterpretiert.
Nur, ihn für die halbleeren Ränge bei „Born Yesterday“ verantwortlich zu machen, ist unter der Gürtellinie. Diese Aussage stößt mir sauer auf. Und ist lächerlich.
Ich mache ihn nicht für die halbleeren Ränge verantwortlich, aber ich finde diese sind gute und heilsame Erfahrung für ihn. Denn Theater ist wesentlich ungnädiger und schnelllebiger als Fernsehen und ich finde es gut, wenn er wieder merkt dass er in eine Erfolgsserie wesentlich zuverlässiger seinen Beruf ausüben kann als auf Broadway.
Ich habe Kommentare von Leuten gelesen, die das Gespräch zwischen ihn und den Jungen mitgehört haben, und die waren allesamt entsetzt, trotz ihrer grossen Zuneigung zu RSL. Was gibt es da zu missverstehen?Junge, fröhlich: „I love House“
RSL: „That makes one of us“
Falls er sarkastisch war, ist ein Junge das falsche Zielpublikum.
Ich lese und kommentiere sonst auch in Fox Forum und auf Twitter, unter Anderem. Und lese eine Menge dort gepostete Links. Mehr Freizeit habe ich nicht, sorry.

Seinen Beruf zuverlässiger ausüben? Dazu muss man das Genre TV Serie mögen. Wenn es darum geht, dass man weiß, dass man 7 Jahre einen sicheren Job hat, dann okay. Lieber 7 Jahre ungern, aber sicher auf Arbeit gehen, als nur 2 Monate unsicher und dafür gern.
Heilsame Erfahrung…Die braucht er ganz sicher nicht.

Und ich habe Kommentare gelesen, die mit der Aussage voll mitgingen.
Wenn man RSL Fragen, oder die Bemerkung: ‚I love you on House‘. stellt, so muss man damit rechnen, dass solche Antworten kommen. Das ist hinlänglich bekannt. Er hat einen trockenen Humor. Das es diesen Jungen traf…So ist das Leben. Klingt vllt. hart, aber das ist meine Meinung. Und da sind wir wieder bei dem bekannten Thema. Eine Userin auf Livejournal hat es treffend formuliert…Hugh Laurie says, „Well, yes, the days are long on House, but I realize how fortunate I am not to have a more arduous job such a coal-mining. Compared to that, we actors are a pampered group, aren’t we?“
Robert Sean Leonard says, „It’s not like this job is hard but I hate having to be in the make-up chair so early.“
I’m convinced the two of them mean the same thing, but RSL just doesn’t know how to say it in a gracious way.

The House of Fan – Robert Sean Leonard – Audiences Love „Born Yesterday“
The House of Fan – Robert Sean Leonard – Born Yesterday – NPR Interview
Transcript:
JEFF LUNDEN: There are three names above the marquee at the Cort Theatre, where a revival of Garson Kanins 1946 comedy, „Born Yesterday,“ is playing. Two of them are familiar TV names Jim Belushi, who plays a corrupt businessman, and Robert Sean Leonard, who plays a virtuous reporter.
But audiences might be forgiven if theyve never heard of the third name Nina Arianda, who plays the not-so-dumb blonde Billie Dawn the pivotal role made famous on Broadway and in film by Judy Holliday. It was certainly a question Robert Sean Leonard had, when his agent called, offering him the part.
Mr. ROBERT SEAN LEONARD (Actor): I said to my agent, I love this play, I love this role, but Im going to have to go on your word here. Is this the girl? Do they have the girl? And he said, This is her. This is who weve been waiting for.
(Soundbite of laughter)
Mr. LEONARD: And, boy, was he right.
(Soundbite of play, „Born Yesterday“)
Mr. LEONARD: (as Paul Verrall) I dont suppose you got a chance to read my piece.
Ms. NINA ARIANDA (Actor): (as Billy Dawn) What are you talking? Of course, I did – twice.
Mr. LEONARD: (as Paul Verrall) What did you think?
Ms. ARIANDA: (as Billy Dawn) Well, I think its the best thing I ever read.
(Soundbite of laughter)
Ms. ARIANDA: (as Billy Dawn) I didnt understand one word.
(Soundbite of laughter)
LUNDEN: Nina Arianda, at age 26, is making her Broadway debut in „Born Yesterday.“ She received rave reviews for her performance, but admits she was nervous taking on a role so identified with another actress.
Ms. ARIANDA: I thought, okay, why is it iconic? Is it because of Judy Holliday? I think its become that, but I think it stems from the text. And the text is timeless and the text is fantastic, and it makes a performance iconic. So if I thought of it that way, it took a little pressure off myself and allowed me to kind of do exactly what I could do, which was just do it my way.
(Soundbite of play, „Born Yesterday“)
Ms. ARIANDA: (as Billy Dawn) Let me ask you, are you one of these talkers or would you be interested in a little action?
(Soundbite of laughter)
Mr. LEONARD: (as Paul Verrall) Huh?
Ms. ARIANDA: (as Billy Dawn) I’ve got a yen for you right off.
Mr. LEONARD: (as Paul Verrall) Hmm. Do you get many?
Ms. ARIANDA: (as Billy Dawn) Now and then.
Mr. LEONARD: (as Paul Verrall) What do you do about them?
Ms. ARIANDA: (as Billy Dawn) Stick around, you’ll find out.
LUNDEN: Ariandas career has been on a fast track, since she got her graduate degree from NYU just two years ago. Last season, she made a splash in an off-Broadway show, „Venus in Fur,“ and has since worked on several movies, including Woody Allens latest, „Midnight in Paris.“
Arianda got the stage bug as a child in Paterson, New Jersey. By the time she was 16, she was studying acting in a summer program at the Royal Academy in London. She well remembers going to the open-air Globe Theatre to see a production of Shakespeares „Cymbeline,“ directed and starring Tony-nominated actor Mark Rylance. She stood in front of the stage and says, by the end of the play, she was sobbing.
Ms. ARIANDA: And then he blew me a kiss, offstage, and that was just – that even worsened my sobs. But that was one of those theater moments that kind of really makes you want it more. You know, when you see a performance like that, it makes you want it even more. It gets you hungrier, in a way.

Playbill: The Man from „House“ Meets One of „The Defenders“ in Born Yesterday
Jim Belushi of TV’s „The Defenders“ and Robert Sean Leonard of „House“ are in from the West Coast for Broadway’s Born Yesterday.Jim Belushi and Robert Sean Leonard elected to spend their TV hiatuses this year escorting Nina Arianda through her Tony-nominated Broadway debut in Born Yesterday as Billie Dawn, the definitive dumb-blonde who introduced Judy Holliday to stardom — and the world —65 years ago.
One landing directly above Belushi’s star dressing room is Leonard’s temporary digs. At 43, he’s frightfully unfussy about where he’s holed up off-stage. Wherever, it’s still an easy sprint for him into the play. „I don’t care where my dressing room is. All I do is put my clothes on and go on stage, and then I go home. I’m not living here.“
In point of fact, he doesn’t even live on the East Coast — although he expects he and his wife and daughter will move back when (or if) „House“ comes tumbling down in the ratings. Distributed to 66 countries, it was the most-watched television program in the world in 2008, so don’t start planning any homecoming parties anytime soon.
Born Yesterday is literally the first chance he has had to get to New York theatre since he signed up seven years ago to befriend Dr. Gregory House (Hugh Laurie), the loopy, misanthropic medical genius who heads the diagnostic department at the fictional Princeton-Plainsboro Teaching Hospital in New Jersey.
Not an easy gig, television: „When you’re working on a sitcom — that’s the best job — the hours are minimal, and you get a long hiatus. You just have to deliver 22 minutes of stuff on tape, whereas with an hour show you need 48 minutes of edited film. It’s almost like making a small movie every ten days, so it sucks. The money is great, but boy! it’s the worst schedule! You wake up at four in the morning and drive to work in the dark, and the sun comes up as you’re putting your makeup on, and the sun cresses, and the sun goes down, and it’s dark, and you’re still there, and you get home at ten at night. Very long days. We are well compensated, but it ’s tough.“

Robert’s daughter with wife Gabriella Salick, Eleanor, was born in 2009. If he’s anywhere near as gentle and patient with her as he is teaching Billie Dawn in Born Yesterday, we know she’ll grow up as smart as her father!
