Tucker Stone On Simon Baker
posted September 18, 2008
 

I find Simon Baker immensely unsettling, and I'd feel sorry for the guy's consistent inability to please an audience if he didn't exude such bizarre cockiness. I don't know if he's secretly wealthy or some kind of STD infested Casanova, but every commercial I see for his latest attempt to find television success seems to be based around the idea that everyone in the world likes, and wants to fuck, this man--and yet everyone I know finds him completely repellent, if they have any idea who he is at all.
