Tahmoh Penikett
Canadian actor Tahmoh Penikett was born in 1975. He has achieved worldwide fame after appearing in television series such as Battlestar Galactica and Dollhouse. Since these two are science fiction cult hits, any appearance on screen gets noticed. Penikett has shown up at conventions where fans are dedicated to watching television each week just for the sake of seeing certain characters become part of a scene. This is such an exciting time for attendees that they cannot wait to find some free time and blog about their experience.
Battlestar Galactica had the good fortune to be shown in two different decades. When Penikett was cast as Helo, it was only intended to be a one time deal. However, fans enjoyed his work so much that he was written into the scripts as a season regular.
As a creation of Joss Whedon, Dollhouse drew instant audience participation. Penikett plays Paul Ballard, an FBI agent who wants nothing more than to figure out the secrets a large originization so desperately wants to hide. Bloggers enjoy discussing this show on a continuous basis.
