Sebastian-A-Day

[storyfan.livejournal.com]

Sebastian did a 9-episode turn on the Canadian TV show G-Spot in which he played a man seeking a sex-change operation. But that's putting it mildly because so far, the role is much more than that. He's a man who wants this new life but is desperately afraid to leave his old life behind, a life that included a wife and a daughter. I've only seen three of his episodes so far, but I'm looking forward to the rest of them.

Kimberly Huie, the woman who plays his ex-wife (I'm not clear on whether they actually are divorced) is superb in the role. Since she kept him away from their daughter I wanted to see her as the bad guy in this, but the way she plays the part gives me a chance to understand her anger and uncertainty.

This show is a comedy, by the way, full of beautiful, interesting characters whose chief talents seem to be screwing up their personal lives. And they do a LOT of screwing — fair warning. So far, I like them all a lot more than I thought I would.

But my opinions aren't what you came to see. Here's Sebastian as Paul/Paulette:

He looks stunning in pink, simply stunning (with Kimberly Huie):



I'm pretty sure he shaved his magnificent chest hair for this one:



Waiting to see his daughter, right before he's supposed to have his operation:



Although it's blurry, this is a great shot. That hug went on for quite a while.



You can watch all of the show's episodes for free on hulu.com. As soon as I've capped them all, I'll post a link to a mediafire folder.

oh wow, these are awesome pics! i actually hadn't heard of this show, either. thanks for the 411!

No problem!

I have a few more pics from the first episode and a couple from his second. I'll post a few random shots as I get the episodes capped.

It annoys me greatly that he can walk on heels better than I can.

heee... i'm pretty good at walking in heels myself. =)

This is kind of scary--he looks like the woman auctioneer on Storage Wars in that blonde wig. LOL I got some caps from the first ep, but my screen cap software definitely doesn't like Hulu as much as it likes DVD's. When you post yours, I'll fill in if I caught any alternate shots.

And don't feel bad. He does way better in heels than I do, too.

I usually watch DVDs on VLC so I can just stop action and screencap what I want — it's very easy. But I can't do that on hulu, so I use a dashboard add-on I found for Mac. It takes an extra step or two, but it does a decent job, especially for programs that don't require a lot of capping.

I fall off my Converse tennis shoes. I'm a hopeless klutz.

Thanks for offering to fill in. I'm sure you'll have shots I didn't get.

Whoa he carries that off a lot better than I would have expected.

In the next batch of pics he looks even better.

Don't you love it when hot blokes have more apt feet for ladies' shoes than your own ladies feet..
