He's probably my most favorite peripheral/supporting character on the show. Part of it stems from my fascination with his father, the Reverend Brian "ihateyou" Darling, but mostly because he is so adorable that he steals the scene (without intending to, I think). For a young actor, he manages to convey the little boy longing in Brian Jr as well as this surprisingly adult comprehension of his own unique parental situation. In many ways, he breaks my heart for going along and pretending to not be his father's son just so he could be with his father.

Poor little guy. He was so confused last night with all of Brian's yapping at him and then the thumbs up.

I shouldn't have been surprised but I was. The cunning little turd is his father's son. I love this boy!

Excellent character, very good acting. Both schoolyard scenes were both dramatic and fun to watch, just the right tone for this show.

This boy is adotable. From the story to the bathroom to going back the teh Darling family home, he totally sold it. What made him (and Brian) even more endearing is when he mimics his dad as they sit on their own bunkbed.

Will Shadley is doing an excellent job as Brian, jr. His scene when he confesses to Mei Ling was just great.

I think Will is one of the best child actors I've seen on television in awhile (tied with the young lady that plays Paige on Brothers & Sisters). He has a great knack for subtlety and line delivery. Plus, he is ADORABLE.

I think this kid is just adorable, and his delivery of "yeah...about that..." was spot-on. I nearly died laughing.

I wish there was a more head-on version of this picture of Will & Glenn--too cute.

This had better not be the last we'll see of Brian, Jr. He's utterly adorable and he broke my heart with his goodbye to his father. I can't wait for the Brians to be reunited.

I know. I'm going to miss that cute lil' mock Swedish orphan.

Nooooooo! Come back Brian Jr. Run away from your nasty mommy, come back & be the terrific kid that you are!

Awwwww. Both of the Brians broke my heart last night! They CAN'T be sending Brian Junior to Brazil! They just CAN'T!

Not to mention that Nick should now realize that this kid is no longer a "Darling." It's his nephew, and Kiki's cousin! There has to be something he can do!
