Doesn't Andrew Shue's acting bother you?
Matt Radack
good-looking, but doesn't his horrible acting and annoying voice just ruin
the show?
I think that Kathy Ireland is damn hot, but I couldn't wait to see her leave MP.

He is absolutely one of the worst actors on TV. Then again, he is playing
one of the weakest characters on TV.
The most annoying thing is his "Oh give me a break that's absurd Allison"
facial expression. Then again, she sucks too, so maybe he's just smirking
at her lame-ness.

Every one of the females that attend our MP parties always freak off
him, but I can't stand him for three things :
1. (which has been corrected, but threatens to emerge in the future)
Dating a slut like Allison.
2. Those horrible outfits he wears to work everyday. I mean, does
Billy dress in the dark or what? And when was it fashionable
to wear blue jeans and a tie?
3. That nasal tone in his voice.

I couldn't disagree more. I think that you have to be a truly amazing actor to
act as badly as Billy does. Andrew Shue obviously couldn't put this little
emotion into a character unless he really knew what he was doing...this reminds
me of the old Inspector Gadget argument-I used to think that Gadget had no idea
of what he was doing, but my brother convinced me that he's in charge of the
situation the whole time, and he just lets Penny and Brain find clues so that
they can get their confidence up. Shue is simply the Inspector Gadget of MP.
QED.
