Timothy Omundson - Constantino has agreed to answers questions from the fans!



YAY!!! (thank you so much!!)

So here is your chance to get those burning questions answered about his career, working on Jericho, etc..!!!

You can post your questions here, PM me or email me at: Jerichomaybei@aol.com

I will be gathering them up and sending them to him and then will post his answers.

Holy Maybei! You go girl!

Wow, Maybei, that is just too cool. Now what was that woman's screen name, the one who just loved Jonah! She needs to get in on this, for sure. I am thinking she was having computer problems, but can't remember for sure. Do you know who I mean, she was on Jeritopia a lot.

I don't know who the Jonah fan is, but finally, someone's bringing the Phil love to a Jericho board...

Please ask Mr. Omundson for me whether he had more fun playing the not, so nice, and mostly misunderstood by those (pardon me) idiots in Jericho, Phil Constantino or the hilariously funny, slightly uptight, and wonderfully fun Carlton Lassiter on Psych, and why?

I admit to a serious preference for the not so nice, mostly because the role was more interesting, and I admit it, he looks even better than usual in that beard (well maybe that phrasing is a bit off, i'm not sure it's possible for Mr. Omundson to look better than he always does.)

Its an absolute shame the show was cancelled, I just know there would have been more Phil in season 2.5 and 3 (you can't keep a good warlord down, and after all Phil was a GREAT warlord.)

Mr. Omundson

I have to say that when someone told me that you were not only Constantino in Jericho but you were also in Psych I did not believe them. I had to Google you. As an actor, is that a compliment or does it make you frustrated?

Thanks!
P.S. If it makes you frustrated, let me say that I think you are quite the chameleon...and that's a GOOD thing!

I loved him in Judging Amy as the nice, sweet sidekick of Tyne Daly. His role as Constantino is the antithesis of that role. What did he use as motivation to play the villain so well. In season 3 does he think he would end up working with Jericho? What would his relationship with Major Beck be in season 3 since he had been killing of the soldiers?

What was your "memorable moment" from Jericho?

You've had quite a diverse career. Which do you prefer, television, movies, or theater?

Do you think that New Bern and Jericho really could have worked together, if Eric had made the deal with Constantino? And would you like to see that happen if we get a season 3?

What has been one of the best things, in regards to your experience on Jericho??

WOW! What an opportunity! Great job, Vicki! And very generous of these Jericho stars to agree to answer all of our burning questions - thank you. And thank you for bringing us such a quality program.

My question is this: When (note: I said "when", not "if") we find a new home for Jericho. will you still be available to play the evil Constantino (and an awesome character!) and are you interested in continuing in that role? I just loved you in Judging Amy, and I love to hate you in the role of Constantino! Who'da thunk?

Oh, please if for some reason there's a limit on the amount of questions he has time to answer, drop my other one, and I second this question. Seasons 2.5 and 3 would be absolutely horribly awful if we don't have the amazing Phil in them. Someone has to represent! for New Bern.

1. We had the chance to see Jericho deal with the situation in the ideal way, but in the meanwhile New Bern was suffering a worse situation and solving problems in quite a different way. While we didn't see much of it New Bern is always in poor shape from what we've heard, what do you think about the New Bern's situation in contrast with Jericho's?

2. You must have been a pretty ruthless sheriff, but especially in the finales of both seasons we see that Constantino is very skilled at waging a war. What do you think about the character of Constantino and his methods?

3. How did you get the role of Constantino?

4. What direction would you like to see Constantino take in the event that the show returns in some form or another? That is if Jake or Eric don't send him to the grave first...

5. In the opening scene we see Constantino fingering a ring... does this bear any significance to the character's story?

6. Jericho shows the events from a small town's perspective as they seem to get mixed up in events worse than they could have imagined. Have you ever lived in a small town community and if so how do you think it relates to its depiction in Jericho? What is your favorite aspect of the town of Jericho?

7. I've seen you post on the Jericho message boards, do you visit online Jericho communities often? The internet communities have seen many articles and debates concerning Jericho, and multiple movements to save Jericho and protest outdated ratings have been based across many Jericho forums and websites. What are your thoughts on the strong presence of "new media" activity from Jericho's fans?

8. What do you think are the most important lessons today's audience can draw from Jericho's (and New Bern's!) story in the last couple seasons?

9. Is there anything you'd like to say to the fans or mention that we have not asked about?

I think thats it, he doesn't have as big of a role as Lennie or Esai so he doesn't have to answer as many questions.

Okay, in the nature of odd questions, is there a place one can purchase one of those absolutely gorgeous "Who Speaks for New Bern" shirts you kept wearing in interviews?

thanks
