I've seen most of his stuff as well, and I agree with the Moonlight comment. Mick's chemistry with Coraline as well was incredible, even though I hate her with a fiery passion.
Thing is, it seems obvious that they're very much following the script when they have scenes just the two of them, and it feels a bit...meh. Especially knowing how well Alex can do.

I agree with all this - I'm not Lori's biggest fan, definitely, which is why I tend to ignore her. I wish she was more of a minor character, like Jenna was - I'm not going to go around and say I think she should be dead. I find that wrong, even talking about a fictional character...

She probably would have been more interesting if they'd kept going with the Governor thing!
