What I love about Clark Gregg is his unwavering enthusiasm and real joy regarding his work and it’s unexpected spotlight.  I can’t name another actor who has such passion and love for his fan base.

what I like about Clark is that he’s seems like such a goofy fanboy. I follow him on twitter because he makes me laugh because he’s such a snarky soul. I’ve been to enough conventions to get a good idea of which actors are there because they’re short on their alimony [...]
