Who would have made a better Vic ( ? ) John Cusack?

In Reply to: Heck yea, listened to a 1/2 hour interview with Sean Ryan (creator) today posted by Road Warrior on December 16, 2008 at 19:46:25:

Edward Norton? OK, neither of these guys would have the sheer menace of Vic, but they would be a helluva lot more nuanced, and just as duplicitous....

I mean, Chicklis is so simply *bloody awful* it's like a sock puppet or cardboard cutout is popping up whenever he appears; his facial expression is set like a plaster cast, he doesn't so much walk as hobble like a crippled duck across the screen When most of the cameo performances on "Shield" + 90% of the supporting cast are really, really Top Shelf ( I'm sure this series has revived a few careers + will "make" many others )

And the woman that plays Vics (ex) Wife is laughably bad... ( Oh, she's related to Shawn Ryan, so no screen test ? ....)

I mean, this is a GREAT, GREAT show, except for muppet Vic + his can't-act-to-save-herself wife...

Sorry for the rant, just pissed the lead in this show chews up so much screen time
