Green on Thursday #86

You can’t be Canadian if you don’t know the work of iconic (and silverfoxy) painter Ken Danby (1940-2007). I’m sorry, but them’s the rules.

It’s possible to be Canadian and not know Danby’s 6’3″, 218 pound son, Noah, but he’s no less a work of art. I first saw him in a couple of episodes of the execrable U.S./Canadian version of Queer as Folk — “I’m the guy you fucked last night,” he said to the groggy Brian, like anyone would need reminding — and he gained wider exposure on the Sci-Fi series Painkiller Jane, but we should really be seeing more of him. Much more.

Oh, right, I almost forgot! Danby played the role of Nephi in The Book of Mormon. That movie’s official website seems to have disappeared — as have, apparently, plans to continue the series — but it’s reported that the LDS forgot to include Danby’s work on Queer as Folk in his bio there. Funny, that.

For the record, he’s married to his Painkiller Jane co-star (and castmember of The L Word), Kristanna Loken.
