Tim DeKay in 1998's "Cupid"

I had seen "The Bizarro Jerry" episode of Seinfeld, but it was the episode, more than Tim as Kevin, that made an impression. Other than being a nice guy, the character of Kevin didn't really have much for an actor to play with. But In 1998, Tim guest-starred in Cupid, and I said, "Who is THAT?", and I've been following his career ever since. He is unbearably sweet and darling in this role.

Cupid was a wonderful, hilarious show set and filmed in Chicago. It was canceled way too soon, because ABC sucks puréed donkey balls through a Krazy Straw. It was remade... this? Last? season, and was unbelievably crappy, and thank God it was quickly taken off the air. (I could go on a diatribe about how ABC treated the original, but instead I'll just give you the premise, and then links to Tim's episode, "The Linguist," on YouTube.)

( Tell me, in your own words, the story of Little Red Riding Hood. )

I cannot stress enough how freaking adorkable Tim is in this. Seriously. I fell completely in love.

All comments about the episode and character are welcome here. SO. FREAKIN'. CUTE.
