Bad casting in a Movie or TV series

[Catman100]

Hated Timothy Dalton as James Bond.

Michael Rapaport on Justified. I hated the guy before then, but I wanted him to DIAF the first time I heard him attempt a southern accent. Just an awful casting decision.

BINGO!

He's the WORST actor ever. I loved the series, but wished he died every episode

The weirdest casting I can recall was Jimmy Fallon popping up in Band of Brothers as a jeep driver. It was the Crossroads episode, a very serious scene in which they are heading to an overrun position, and here comes the goofy guy from SNL.

 

[BlueVelvetFog]

Les Moonves of CBS casting his wife Julie Chen on any CBS show. It's nepotism and she's an Asian robot

Margot Kidder & Kate Bosworth (even worse) as Lois Lane.

 

[Uncle Ivan]

Keith Gordon as Jason Melon, total d-bag.

But I forgot about the guy who played "Harris" in Major League. Dude looked like he was 55 years old in that movie. Corbin Bernsen barely could pass for a ball player, but ol' Harris wasn't remotely believeable. Still a great movie though.

Ever watch Gaylord Perry, Rick Reuschel or Phil Niekro pitch in their later years? Harris to a T.

Never heard of 'em.
