Michael Emerson, I Love You

I have decided I need to add Michael Emerson to my family of adopted people I may or may not adore in the way gay men adore Judy Garland. So, I have Magical Uncle Neil Gaiman, Fairy Grandfather Ian McKellan, Storytellin’ Gramps Philip Pullman, and…I may have to relegate the actor playing Benry as…That Creepy Dude Who Says He’s My Uncle But I’m Too Weirded Out To Gainsay Him Not To Mention I Kinda Have An Inappropriate Crush On Him.

TCDWSHMYUBITWOTGHNTMIKHAICOH is probably too long of an acronym.

Creepy Inappropriate Not-Uncle might have to suffice. CINU?

Anyway, today I discovered that CINU narrated a radio play and a novella of Magical Uncle’s, which sort of made my head explode with awesomeness.

1. As the unnamed narrator in the radio play adaptation of Murder Mysteries: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5, Part 6, Part 7, Part 8
2. Narrated the AMERICAN GODS novella “The Monarch of the Glen” (from FRAGILE THINGS) in volume III of an audio book series called “Legends II: New Short Novels by the Masters of Modern Fantasy” .

And because this bears repeating, Michael Emerson reading “Little Boy Blue” in the creepiest voice ever.

If there’s one good thing that ever came out of Lost, it’s that the show introduced me to this man. ♥ you, Benry!
