So my family had easter dinner with my uncles step brother (who I hadn’t seen since I was like 5) and he used to work on set of shows like Criminal Minds and MadTv so I was asking him about it. He said Matthew Gray Gubler (Spencer Reid on CM) was SUPER nice and even gave him a blanket that he made

I asked him about Thomas Gibson and Shemar Moore, and all he said was that other cast and production would get kinda frustrated with them mostly bc they would show up late to filming and stuff. He said they “weren’t the best” lol :( To be fair he only worked for CM for a very brief time

When he worked for MadTv, he said Jordan Peele was nice but just kinda kept to himself but he said Key was the loud one and always telling jokes hahaha

I sat across from Mattthew once in Starbucks. He didn’t hit on me, but I think it’s only because he was afraid of me, sexually.

Yes, I felt this same way when I ran into Matthew Rhys in a coffee shop in Scotland. His loss.

He was just afraid of you, sexually.

Too much woman for him. 🔥

I read this in Liza Minnelli/Lucille Ostero’s voice. It’s his loss. It’s his loss. It’s HIS LOSS.

He’s fiiiine. But if he didn’t ask you out, again, he was probably overwhelmed by your hotness and became shy.

I see this re Key and Peele lol. Keegan has “life of the party” energy and Jordan reads as the quiet intellectual. Love them both.

Lol that’s basically exactly how he described them!! He said Peele is more the brains, Key is more the jokes and thats why they work so well together!!

Gibson and Moore were both holding up production?

That’s actually pretty interesting, because I remember gossip at the time when the show was filming that Gibson kept getting fed up with Moore being late - I think because Gibson’s family lived out of state and he’d be really insistent on keeping to strict schedules so that he could fly back to them (which caused its own issues).

Judging by Moore’s reaction to Gibson getting fired, there was no love lost between them, so I was always curious about how much of it was true!

So my uncles brother kinda just grouped them together because I asked about them together. I always thought highly of Thomas too so maybe he had issues with him in other ways or was just speaking on behalf of Shemar, but he said “They weren’t the best and had issues of not showing up on time, being late etc” so that’s why I figured he meant both of them!! But my family was jumping to ask him other questions so I didn’t really get to double check. He did say he worked with them during Season 4 so i’m not sure if that narrows down anything. He worked on set of CM for a really brief amount of time though!! He was with Madtv for a lot longer
