Thoughts on David Hyde Pierce — Page 2

He's incredibly charitable (his work with the Alzheimers Association is especially personal as my grandparents both have the disease) and never forgot where he came from (he always makes mention he is from Saratoga). Also incredibly kind when I saw him at stage door interacting with others and myself. Never saw Curtains but I thought he was fantastic in Spamalot and am still a bit baffled he did not get a Tony nod for it. Sans Sara's numbers, his 'You Won't Succeed On Broadway' was the most show-stopping when I saw it. He sold his role and there was hardly any Niles Crane while at the same time not trying to act like Eric Idle.

I was next to him in PAX Whole Foods and he was very polite and we made small talk about what sandwiches were good. I didn't treat him like a celebrity and he was very sweet.

That's when I thought, "I'd tap that!" He's adorable.
