I filed Suburban Shootout under "so bad it's kind of good in a ridicuously terrible sort of way" and that made it bearable.

I stumbled through Unrelated in spurts. Turned off Archipelago after 10 min.,but Suburban Shootout reaches a level of slapstick comedy that, for me, far overcomes any cringe factor.

I still haven't watched Suburban shootout and I probably never will, but I totally fell for him in Archipelago. Edward is such a beautiful sensitive sad soul *sigh*

I suffer from the same thing. I tried to watch Archipelago and couldn’t do it. I have already resigned myself to not watching SS.
Second hand embarrassment is the worst though. Sometimes when I am watching something I have to skip ahead/leave the room because I can’t handle it x.x

I think there are a couple of factors for me.
First, I have this idea of him with 30 something years old, a mature and more experienced actor. So anything from when he’s younger will make me cringe, even though he was already a good actor back then. And this happens with every actor I know, not just him.
And then there’s the kind of british humour in Suburban Shootout that always fails to get to me. There’s a reason I don’t like most comedies. I cringe more than I laugh. Yes, there are some that are so bad, they’re good (e.g. The Room) but I never watch them, just the reviews xD
