Anyone watching "1923" with hunky Brandon Sklenar ?

I've been hooked on '1923' - the new spinoff of 'Yellowstone'. It's much more entertaining than 'Yellowstone' with Helen Mirren and Harrison Ford in the leads. The standout, though, is Brandon Sklenar who plays 'Spencer Dutton' the wayward son who left Montana for the jungles of Africa. Damn- the blue eyes, the just enough scruff and mustache, the perfect amount of hair on his sculpted chest - this guy's a winner. His adventurous character seems to be modeld after Indiana Jones from 1981. The guy is mouthwatering. Can't find much personal info on him on the internet (not even the year he was born, but I'm guessing late 30s / early 40s). If you have any info or sexy photos to contribute - please do !

Do I pronounce "Sklenar" as 'Sklenner'?

Or as 'Skle-nah'?

[R1] In the throes of passion, you can yell out any pronounciation you want.

Just don't yell out 'Let's go, Brandon!' - that's reserved for my time with him when he's coming at me with his boner.

Damn! This guy is fuckin' hot ! Where's he been hiding ?

Maybe he can be th enext James Bond !

He may have two big boobies but he isn't photogenic at all.

I think he looks really good on the show. In still photos, not so much.

OP, we have looked and none are as good as your poorly-lit picture.

The guy is beautiful - where did they ever find him ?

Why worry about the face with a rack like that?

His face is fine. R12 needs an eye exam.

I LOVE 1923!! But then, I've loved YELLOWSTONE from the word "go" (when it was just this new show on Paramount Network with Kevin Costner & horses), and I loved 1883, too. Spencer (who is clearly supposed to be Kacey's pre-cursor) and Cara (Helen Mirren) are running away with this thing.

It’s not just his appearance, but he REEKS of sex and has a swarthy look about him for a white guy. When R12 says “weak” I would argue he has delicate features, which can be incredibly hot with scruff and the outfit. All the men of Yellowstone are sexy in their own way and flavor. It made me find a few attractive even if they aren’t my type.

I too love Yellowstone for the breathless scenery, family and coworker rivalry- even if some of the plots have giant holes in them, border of ridiculousness, and have followed all three generations of shows. I would advise “banking” a few episodes rather than streaming them all at once.

It's OK, but 1883 was much better.

Doesn't he fit your racial expectations?

R18, I worked behind the scenes and what producer can do with a bit of makeup, tailoring and outfits, and the fact that movies are two dimensional (and what they can hide in an actor’s shortcomings in that missing third dimension) is AMAZING.

A young Tom Cruise is a great example of staging trickery…

I tend toward darker, swarthier guys, but wouldn’t throw Brandon out of bed!

I watched '1883' first last year, and was blown away by the story and the acting of the two main stars (McGraw and Hill). It was great.

Then I binged the first few seasons of 'Yellowstone' and I'm currently watching Season 5 - it has gotten too repetitive and the episodes of season 5 have been too much filler episodes. Feels like the writers don't know where to go from here. ('Beth' is becoming a joke).

I'm loving '1923'

I tried to like and get into the programme, but it just wasn't for me. I just couldn't suspend reality enough with Dame Helen being in it. It was like watching The Queen in the wild west.

The object of the OP's lust though, is a dish.

R13 that's what they used to say about me!

What are these shows even about? Are they are just rip offs of Lonesome Dove?

Do you have to watch Yellowstone through first and then 1881 and then 1923 or does it not matter?

I hope he has a good career but my god what a nonentity when he has no facial hair. Could not pick him out of a lineup, or describe him based on memory. He can never shave his mustache now. He will have to be like Tom Selleck.

He sort of looks like Jonah Hauer King with watered down facial features.

That being said, Jesus Christ, look at his chest

The actor is hot AF, but I don't think the character he plays has ever cracked a smile.

R26: No, I don't think you need to watch Yellowstone before 1883. All you need to know is that Tim McGraw is Kevin Costner's great-great-great (?) grandfather. I think we're still a little unclear on how many greats, but whatever -- the first Dutton to go West. I do think you should watch 1883 before 1923, however.

Did he do much in this—?

He looks like a sheepherder.

And his costar looks like Tori Spelling.

Does Harrison Ford actually give a performance in this, or does he just do his usual thing?

Ford wears so much make-up he looks a 100 years old.

I've never see so many shaking jowls and such a soft wattle.
