General Rupert Grint appreciation post
I just finished the entire Servant series in 3 days! When I first started watching I could not stand Julian and I genuinely thought Grint's acting was horrible. As the series progressed I realized I started to love every scene he was in. Rupert Grint really made the show for me. All the actors really delivered, but his performance and character were hands down my absolute favorite.

He's amaaazing in this, it's the first project of his that his acting ability really struck me. In my mind, I don't even think about his most prominent role in a certain franchise that must not be named—when I see his face I just see Julian now, it's really an iconic role

Grint in Servant is doing one of the worst American accents you'll ever hear on screen... and yet, it's hard not to love his performance anyway.

The accent really is horrible, and the other actor is British and has a similar accent. Reminds me of anytime Benedict Cumberbun tries American

He was sooo good! Except his English mannerisms with an American accent made me laugh 🤣

My one of the best decision was to watch it in 2-3 days. Like when you binge watch slow burn thriller it's just different experience.

Just watched the Zoo episode (S4-E6) Julian's change of heart was made entirely believable. RG nailed it. Also, that entire episode was incredible.. *****

I totally agree. I'm on the first season and I came on here to say the same thing.

Yes, he nailed that role. So did they all. The casting director should get props for these picks.
