We had a short discussion re this, asked as an anon. But off the top of your head, do you know any more what I want to call Wyleisms? There's the embarrassed shuffle, the blushing, etc. I hope I have explained myself well enough.
I want to say shaking his head emphatically before saying "no" is one, but that maybe just be a Carter thing. 🤣 There must be more, I haven't seen a lot of his filmography. I've barely started "Falling Skies."
I want to preface this by saying that everything below is presented with the utmost affection and love.
Here are some additional Noah-isms/Wyle-isms:
1. He makes an adorable Kermit face. Trademarked by the County General ER discord.
2. He stims sometimes, like rocking back and forth and playing with his hands.
3. Passing out eye trick. I don't know if this counts since it's a conscious acting choice.
4. He gets emotional during interviews.
5. Blushing in recent years
6. Finger guns.
7. Reciting his ER monologue (from two different episodes)
Other Noah-isms include:
Oversharing (e.g. Tom Hale, virginity, Werther's attaboy, trauma-based hoarding, drunkenly falling in the shower, Meisner, every interview in the 90s)
Being self-critical and self-deprecating (e.g. ER newcomers, "shut up, no one cares what you have to say", “no real skills of value”, “I didn’t deserve it back then”, "Sunrise, Sunset", also every interview he did in the 90s)
Hating filming Falling Skies in Vancouver (e.g. the water was freezing, we almost drowned)
Advocating for human rights, labor rights, and most prominently healthcare reform
Setting a kind, professional, and welcoming tone on sets
Posting on Instagram like your aunt, mostly of strike.art
Talking about being a third-generation Angeleno, Gardner Elementary, Thacher School, and filming in LA
Talking about his wife, kids, and mom (a nurse!)
Bucket-listing
No tailoring unless forced
Gemini
Being a compassionate, informed, and intellectually-curious human being. ❤️
