Hey, did I mention that I'm on The Big Bang Theory tonight?
I didn't? That's weird. I could have sworn that I did. Well, allow me to just put this gentle reminder out there: Evil Wil Wheaton returns in "The 21-Second Excitation" at 8pm on CBS.
And now, another hopefully amusing video, to help you remember:
In the crazy world of big time Hollywood casting, it's common for several actors to audition for one role. Usually, we never find out who those actors were, or get a chance to see their audition tapes … until now.
Before settling on Wesley Crusher for yesterday's stupid video, I auditioned several other hopefuls who happened to be in my office; here are some of them.
You’re not taking the whole Fringe thing too hard, right?
I can’t decide if you’re a comedic genius or just have _way_ too much time on your hands. 😉
Heh. Nope. I did the best I could do, they told me that I didn't suck, and I just wasn't right for this particular role. There will hopefully be other chances at Fringe, but even if there aren't, it doesn't do me any good to dwell on what could have been.
You might be my most favorite person ever, sir.
He is a little bit of both!
I despise 88.6439% of network television but love seeing you on the big bang theory. Tonight I shall succomb to the MSM monster.
Damn you Wil Wheaton!
OMG, you have Peter Lorre’s skull, and it talks, and it is full of vodka!
I have one of those Darth Vader heads full of action figures!!
That is an amazing Cthulu model! Does it come complete with dream whispering action?
Sooo… Wil. You been drinkin?
I’m pretty sure it’s the HorrorClix Cthulhu. I believe it eats 1D6 innocent bystanders per turn.
I’m worried about your mental state Wil. Dr. Slaughter says you need RPG GAME STAT!
whoa, if it weren’t for the Cthulhu, I’d be wondering who let you play in my office.
There’s an opening in our Cyberpunk game if you can make Tuesday nights in Cambridge, England. :o) We alternate with The Whispering Vault.
Those auditions cracked me up, you have a great selection of toys.
I can’t wait until I can watch the ep here in the UK.
Is there anything good on tv tonight? It wasn’t good. IT WAS G-G-G-Reat!!!!!!! I promise no spoilers but holy cow…. loved every one of those 21 seconds.
I think that this one will go under insane comedic genius. The Lord of all things dark and mindbending aside, this was just funny. And you rocked on Big Bang tonight, love the Evil Wil Wheaton.
Looks like you need to dust your Vader. (wink, wink, nudge, nudge)
Oh mannnnn you have the Black Beast of ARRAHHGHGHHHHHGGH!!! Where did you find it!
Love the freakin’ Swine Flu hahahhaha! I think I saw the diseases for sale at JFK airport in one of the stores there.
Swine Flu was merely OK. Black Death would have been much better!
(I have Black Death, Martian Life and Flu. I’ve given my kids’ school nurse Flu and Common Cold. I have an Ebola around here somewhere, as well, and I don’t think I need it in my life anymore. Before I do anything else with it, though, I’m going to go show it to the school nurse.)
Spoilers?
You’ll get the joke when you watch BBT
Just how many of those “hopefuls” were from Thinkgeek.com?
Just watched you on the TBBT. Your Jar Jar Binks was the hilarious! I hope they keep having you back.
BBT was in a word, GREAT. you play the sneaky, snakey, slimy, underhanded Evil Wil Wheaton to perfection. I would hate to be on your bad side.
Most of them!
I love thinkgeek! I think most of my t-shirts came from thinkgeek…and woot.
In fact, I think all of the gifts exchanged between my boyfriend and I on Valentine’s day were form Thinkgeek. Haha.
Evil Wil was pretty epic! Me-sa think it pretty awesome. 🙂
Why is the episode 19 minutes long? That’s 3 minutes shorter than normal.
Great episode tonight! I first saw the show when you said you were going to be on it for your second time. Now I love the show and watch the episodes I missed on DVD. Thanks Wil. Better luck next time with Fringe. I love Fringe and it would be cool to see you on it.
My daughter was really into that video. “Mom, who is that guy?”. She sat still for 2 minutes, thanks!
I especially loved the picard imitation by sheldon.
I missed it because of class, but I will catch it in a rerun! I can’t wait! I bet your kids are so proud of you….wish I could say my dad or brother or cousin etc was on The Big Bang! I made sure everyone at work knew you were on it tonight…..and we even has a wesley crusher conversation, along with the whole “we are star trek geeks and proud” talk at work…was pretty AWESOME…I live in a small town, and have worked at the same place for years, and only today found out I work with trekkies. 🙂
I love to hate evil wil wheaton! he’s so maddening!! 🙂
A vast majority of my holiday gift-giving involves ThinkGeek. That’s just how I roll: with LED-embedded d20s.
Nice episode
Wil: Fantastic episdode ! I was wondering as we watched this if you came up with any backstory for Evil Wil Wheaton. Did a.w.c.d.d.d drive him crazy ? Was he a teen idol, and all the screaming groupies throwing their underwear at him went to his head ?
“Meesa go into theater now!”
If only the writers had given Mayim Bialik some better material – I wound up muting the sleepover segments so I could watch the good parts…
GAH! Something preempted it on my Tivo! And CBS and Hulu only show 2 minute clips!
Garumph. Allegedly there is a link to iTunes, and I’d be willing to pay $2 to see it, but I can’t find it there. The link is apparently broken.
*sigh*
wil,
your jar jar was spot on
and when are you and mayim gonna have a scene together?
quick ot….on dec 1, psych is doing their tribute to the 20th anniversary of twin peaks
im still waiting for that show to sign wil on as a guest villain
OMG BENDER!!!!!! perfect 😉
TBBT was AWESOME! I love the show, but I particularly look forward to appearances by Evil Wil Wheaton. Last night’s was perfect! Love, love, loved it!
I’d love to watch it, but I just can’t get into BBT no matter how hard I try. I’ll have to wait until Eureka comes back, I suppose.
Man, it makes me sad that ThinkGeek charges SO DAMN MUCH to ship stuff up here to Canada.
Loved you on BBT last night, although I don’t think there was ENOUGH Evil Wil Wheaton.
Nice t-shirt, Evil Wil! I had to re-wind to make sure, but it was the meeples one!
Oh man you have some cool stuff!
Somewhere there must be a blog by Evil Wil Wheaton with a tagline that reads Evil Wil Wheaton says, “Be a Dick!”
Hey, I have that Darth Vader carrying case too!
Great show last night 🙂
Loved your posse last night, Wil, especially the dude in the back rockin’ the awsome ‘fro.
What no comments from the reddit alien???
Tell me about it. $22 shipping for a $16 item to the UK. Ridiculous.
It was the first episode this season that had LOL moments, at least in the cinema segment, the girls’ night one was more cringeworthy than funny. Amy is even less real-world savvy than Sheldon in a really unrealistic way.
Who are the rest of your posse (other than Captain Sweatpants and Lonely Larry)?
