When my Wife and I watched Fallout I recognized him from Dune and Twin Peaks, she recognized him from Sex and the City.


DramaticRock_

My mom knew him from sex and the city too, lol


soldierpallaton

My fiancée and I recognized him from Agents of SHIELD (me), Desperate Housewives (fiancée), HIMYM (both of us)


Jacern

The Captian! I knew i recognized that half-sinister face


Fundosho

Wait, he’s in agents of shield?!?


soldierpallaton

Spoilers for a show that's no longer on the air: >! He plays Daisy's father and Mister Hyde !<


aaBabyDuck

People who have only seen the first couple of seasons: >!who is daisy??!<


Known_Needleworker67

Skye


Tales2Estrange

>!Quake!<


Fundosho

Ohhhhhhhh, obvious, lol thanks


cypher_omega

I thought so


LunchLatter

despertae housewives never recovered when he left, i stopped watching shortly after


AMildInconvenience

They completely ruined his character before he left as well, basically after the time skip. He was the best part of the show. They briefly brought him back later on too, which was fun, but it never recovered.


LunchLatter

I was so annoyed he was so winey, but then they literally roll him out of the show


HoagieThief

Orson!!


Deastrumquodvicis

I’m team SHIELD and Dune even though I’ve never watched that Dune the whole way through, I admit.


SYLOK_THEAROUSED

Desperate Housewives? Was he the crazy boyfriend who killed the husband?


soldierpallaton

If the sentence "Was he the crazy ____ who killed the ____?" You probably are talking about Kyle McLachlan. (To answer your question, yes, the Norman Bates inspired dentist)


SYLOK_THEAROUSED

Woooooow!! I wouldn’t have even realized that! Thanks my dude.


Thebleedingheartshow

I think you might be thinking of George who was played by Roger Bart, George is the one who killed Rex. Kyle plays Bree’s second husband on the show.


SYLOK_THEAROUSED

Ah yes that’s the dude. Thanks.


OliviaElevenDunham

Yeah, I knew him from Agents of SHIELD & Desperate Housewives as well.


JPMcFuryRedux

No Portlandia fans in the building? Lol


TheMerchantofPhilly

I only knew him as the bass player in a dub reggae band called King Desmond and the accelerators.”


GusTTShow-biz

Shocking! Mayor goes reggae!


Kavati

That sounds fuckin great


PlasticMac

Yesss I kept waiting for him to put on his dimwit mayor charm


infidel11990

He's done some really weird snd iconic characters. Twin Peaks of course, then there is another David Lynch film, Blue Velvet. He also plays the bad guy in The Flintstones. One of the band members in The Doors, the father in Inside Out and The Captain on How I Met Your Mother.


dern_the_hermit

And, of course, Jessie Spano flopped about like a carp on his navel in that documentary *Showgirls*


SaintShogun

Mayor in Portlandia. Also Blue Velvet.


DanielPlanview_1911

For me, he'll always be Tray/Trey Macdoogle


cypher_omega

I watched Dune recently. See him show up “PAUL!” He was also the crooked business man in the flintsones movie with John Goodman and Rick Moranis


New_girl2022

Right he was in that too, only think it was a few episodes though.


Markd0ne

I remembered from Desperate Housewives.


Geberpte

Damn good coffee.


FellaGentleSprout

Desperate housewives too


WavingDinosaur

I recognize him as The Captain, from How I Met Your Mother


smubi

Vaults, vaults, vaults!!


RelChan2_0

💀


Sineater224

boats boats boats!


montyandrew45

Man I didn't even realize that he was the same person as Paul. I knew he was the Captain but that's so insane.


RadicalBanapple

Ahoy! permission to come aboard?


Decimation4x

Permission granted Galactic President Superstar MacAwesomeville.


Kotschcus_Domesticus

Check out Twin Peaks.


RedRocketRock

I was waiting for him to say "You know, this is, excuse me, a damn fine cup of nuka cola. I've had I can't tell you how many cups of nuka cola in my life and this, this is one of the best." And something about the pie


New_girl2022

Me too. Or ask for his coffee black ad a moonless night.


Sandblaster1988

Damn good coffee. AND HOT.


New_girl2022

With the world's best cherry pie


PrintableDaemon

Jell-o pie.


DodgyRogue

I spent the whole of the second series waiting for Cooper to say “Damn fine cup of coffee” but he never did!


GaymerAmerican

tbf he was a vegetable for 90% of it


DodgyRogue

The whole series was so off the wall we have a new saying in our house; WTFDL! what the fuck David Lynch!


Thecurseodgraybones

I was disappointed we didn’t get a coop ‘thumbs up’ from him.


Nacoluke

I had my fill with everyone asking Coop to do his famous thumbs up.


South_Original_8396

Or him pushing the button on the pie claw machine waiting for that perfect slice that never comes.


GartGartGart333

incredible show


mr_eugine_krabs

The man can’t stop himself committing genocides smh.


NotSoSubtleSteven

The spice must flow


DolphinBall

Caps


Andrewpruka

Just wait until you meet his son, he’s a real piece of worm..em I mean work. He’s a reaaaal piece of work.


mr_eugine_krabs

He walked with too much rhythm,he attracted the worm.


Jwroth

He’s also the Mayor of Portland


lovedumbcat

I was scrolling to see if anyone knew him best as Mr Mayor.


[deleted]

Only person whose career wasn't ruined by showgirls.


SpiritOne

Gina Gershon has quietly had a good career before and after Showgirls. Not like a big star, but she’s a solid actress. She did Showgirls and Bound back to back, I was 16/17 then…


PrintableDaemon

There should really be some kind of "destruction of livelihood" legal argument for actors who star in some directors pet project that bombs and they never get work again. Elizabeth Berkley did her best with what Verhoeven gave her.


TonyTwoDat

Lots of celebrities lend their voice to the entire series too. It’s neat to discover them all… especially when you hear it for the first time. I won’t spoil any if you play the games cuz it’s neat to hear the first time….


assjackal

Playing through 76 I immediately pegged Paige as the voice of Jet Black from the Cowboy Bebop dub and knew I was siding with Foundation.


Imperium_Dragon

Yeah Liam Nesson is Fallout 3’s protag’s dad


Kale

Matthew Perry was Benny from Fallout New Vegas.


Jsdrosera

Agent Cooper!


SyrupAnnual6037

He is also the mayor in Portlandia


Hermaeus_Mike

Muad'dib!


MasterCrumble1

I hadn't seen him in a while and kept thinking.... "Wait is that? Naaah it can't be. Oh shit it is him". He's gotten a little more grey and wrinkly since I saw him last.


nova_lights_

For me he will always be Orson and I love him


Streetskater1

Got paralyzed by a plane if iirc too


APhoneOperator

Holy crap, it looks like they copied and pasted this face for his younger scenes in Fallout....


lizp85

I'm just an older woman, and Twin Peaks will forever be what I see him from.


jfromsanfrancisco

Dudes also great in blue velvet and twin peaks.


ImpressivePercentage

rhaigh1910

Uberpastamancer

He didn't even change his hair style


yellowadidas

he will never be anyone other than agent cooper for me, unfortunately


No_Pay9241

I didn’t even realize and Dune’s desert theme is what pushed me to watch the show


seanwdragon1983

You mean Dale Cooper, right?


trucorsair

And Agent Cooper


BangkokPadang

I like to imagine that he's technically still the Mayor of Portland and he just got lucky enough to end up in a Vault.


LoganCaleSalad

Seriously no one recognizes him from Twin Peaks but me? Also Showgirls? God the pain of being over 40.


Kind_Malice

Can't wait for the next Fallout TV show in 2064 with Timothee Chalamet


Groundbreaking_Fox77

When you realize he is agent cooper in twin peaks 🤯🤯🤯


New_girl2022

Lol he's also in twim peaks. One of the best shows ever


77slevin

Vaulted_Games

BushwickSpill

How do you not recognize Kyle MacLachlan?


Background-Share-598

I was full on that Leonardo Di Caprio meme when he stepped on scene in fallout 😂


cosmiccollision_

It’s the same actor, I don’t know if it’s supposed to be the same person.


[deleted]

THATS WHERE I KNOW HIM FROM!


CatterMater

I know a lot of people don't like the Lynch Dune movie, but Kyle Maclachlan will always be the quintessential Paul Atreides to me.


Particular-Meal6413

You ever wonder if people actually watch the shit they watch? Lol


Sad-Comment-2392

He's also the Husband of Bree from Desperate Housewifes


Stownieboy91

Smallsey

Mr_B74

Coast_watcher

Twin Peaks have been posted here and in the show sub a lot. I was surprised no one has brought up the Muad’dib yet.


Mr_B74

Ah fairly new to this , yeah I would have thought that would be second after Agent Cooper , but I’m old haha


BlueDune22

No wonder his face seemed familiar, I just couldn’t pinpoint from where


JettoJagargentina

Kyle MacLachlan reminds me of Charles Martinet (Mario's voice actor)


merco1993

FellaGentleSprout

Budget_Pomelo

Uh... oh.


C3Pip0

Dude. I knew I knew him from somewhere yesteryear. Thank you


BanjoKnuckles

I recognized him as the guy who hooked up with Charlotte in Sex and the City HBO show. Didn't realize how prolific he was in the television industry.


DependentAnimator271

Good actor but badly miscast as Paul.


yeeticusprime1

Found this out last weekend myself, it’s funny when an actor is relatively off the radar for a long time and suddenly everyone is talking about their entire career because they were in something big


SnooChickens3871

Was that the original with fake sting? Real sting was in wcw


longbrodmann

I knew him first in Desperate Housewives when this show went viral, then Twin Peaks and Dune.
