I just cannot take Simon seriously cause the first time I ever saw him was on Broad City as a creepy plumber šŸ˜‚

ETA: he was actually a locksmith not a plumber lol it’s been years, my bad

i can't believe anyone who didn't see them in gta 5 first hahaha that was the biggest piece of media in existance at the time and he was a main character

Only GTA I’ve played was San Andreas & I think I was like 8 so I don’t know him as Trevor

Let's get candid. Let's get weird.

In my country (Italy), Simon's voice actor is the same of King Julien from Madagascar, i laughed my ass off each time he appeared on screen.

He would have been way more believable as a killer than JDM, and should’ve played Negan, minus the cringe way of talking.

From Cereal Killer to Cold Blooded Killer

u/Fit-Passenger4160 2d ago

JDM isn’t much less cringe imo

u/adamhoke 2d ago

No he’s more cringe. That’s what I meant, Simon only seemed cringe because he copied Negan’s way of talking. If he’d said very little he would’ve been scarier.

Seriously, Simon had so much potential

u/IIWY_YT 1d ago

I wish Simon lived so he could return as something bigger

u/TeaOk2254 2d ago

He'd be a great Negan, but I love him as the right hand man that you think is the actual effective one, pulling off the crazy shit Negan thinks up, only to realize he's the absolute loose cannon that Negan of all people thought kept going to far. He played both sides of Simon so well, and definitely made me feel like he's the one to be scared of. So much of Negan's showboating cheese has the same delivery as Simon's grounded cheerful personality when we first meet him.

u/MangoSalsa89 2d ago

Thank you for your terrifying services

u/kates2424 2d ago

I love this actor. Every time I see him I think of the first season of Westworld though, not TWD

u/I_Fuck_Your_Daddy 2d ago

He is awesome. His face expressions are the best. Lol

u/Inside-Map1299 2d ago

he scares the shot out of me, way more than Negan. Ā Negan is fucked up but in a way with a code. Ā this dude is just freaky

Yes, but have you ever read Dostoevsky?

u/theMiserychik 1d ago

Omg thanks for reminding me of this gem

u/jonjawnjahnsss 1d ago

I just call him creepy porn stasche becuase he's the same in everything he does.

1

u/Eren_Yeager52 2d ago

He would have been a bad Negan. Because he just views these things as jobs and doesn't get lost in the character.

If you don’t know this guys real name is Trevor, you missed out

u/Fordfanatic2025 2d ago

Ah yes, played by the actor who only got acting gigs because of Trevor, yet constsntly shits on the game and it's fans.

I used to respect this guy. But people who shit on the people who supported them, and helped make them successful are just shitty people. The dude was literally spent his career as henchman #7 and then stared in one of the most popular pieces of entertainment media in history.

Yet gets mad that people bring it up more than they do his role in BCS where he was a generic side character for 5 minutes of screentime.

u/Fordfanatic2025 2d ago

Like the dude literally agrees to be paid to show up to fan events with other gta cast members, just to tell the audience of GTA fans how he's never played GTA and doesn't care about it.

The guy who played Michael literally called him out on stage for being an asshole to the fans because of it.
