It's hard to be an actor sometimes, even when you're Alan Richson. Long before you have to play loved characters Like Jackec Reacher of "Reacher" or Young, beautiful "Brooklyn Nine Nine" sculpts, Richson played minor roles in a series that they probably didn't deserve. The worst of the draw? Expired cow of the 2012 episode from Fred: The show.

Who was an expired cow? He was a wicked, imaginary cow who wanted to break the cake that the main character Fred Figglhorn (Lucas Kruikshank) had to worry. Fred has decided to fight the cow to save the cake and prepare for the fight with an imaginary talking cookie. In the end, Fred defeated the cow, remembering that her weakness was bad music with thrombone. After being beaten, Richson's expired cow explodes, never to see it again.

Let's be clear: when we say that Ritson played a cow, we do not think Ritson expressed a computer animated of cow's character; We think he was dressed in an inexpensive cow suit (see the above image) and asked to act for a few minutes at a short time.

It's hard not to wonder if all this was under Richson, even this early in his career. The episode came out after the first season of the "Blue Mountain State" was already airing, where the actor played an important character. Richson may not have been nowhere near as it is as it is today, but surely he was more established than this.

To understand "Fred: the show", you must first understand the absolute dream of fever that was the "Fred" series on YouTube. In 2006 Although Fred's disturbing voice is something that most people remember him, one of the main appeals of the channel was how dark he was ready to win Fred Lore. Although Fred himself does not understand how dark his life is, his videos (recorded in the style of mockery) imply that his mother is a strictly problematic alcoholic, his father is criminal dead, his grandmother is violent, and his children in his neighborhood abuse him.

Were those implications enough to make Fred high art videos? No, not with a long blow. But it helped keep the series "Fred" a little more intense From the viral videos of the skibid toilet From today. The fact that these videos believed their audience to collect the subtext (in combination with the charming low budget approach of non-Fred characters to stay out of the screen forever) helped save the Fred YouTube show from feeling like a total fool.

But when Fred Figglhorn began to appear on nickelodeon, the darker aspects were watered and those characters outside the camera began to appear on the screen. Each of the small subversive attractions of the original videos were stripped one by one, so the moment "Fred: TV -Shoot" came around everything that was left disturbing voice.

But no matter how incredible as Fred, it was always difficult to impose Kruikshank to pay so hard. His silly character inexplicably became a massive viral sensation in a way that would be impossible to imagine even a few years earlier. Perhaps Richson joined the Fred Franchise because he really respected Kruikshank's hustle, opposite him, has a bad taste or a losing bet. Kruikshank milked Fred's role for everything worth, even though he had to get sick quickly.
