#but it's con o'neill's filmography
Text
it’s very strange seeing con playing a straight character (or at least, implied to be straight via one off-handed line about a woman being “fetching”).

Finished watching Uncle and it's actually pretty decent as a whole. I know a lot of people probably just watched the Val compilation and called it a day but I honestly enjoyed the rest of it too. Beyond the silliness it takes its character development pretty seriously, and it made me laugh quite a lot here and there.
God, maybe I'm actually in my enjoying comedies era. I used to not be able to stand comedy series or sitcoms, but now after OFMD and Schitt's Creek I really don't feel that way anymore.
Also, Val is the perfect character for my baby genderqueer ass and they will just have to live in my brain now forever.

Hey, if you're gonna watch Happy Valley
It's very dark. Deals with SA, kidnapping, murder and other horribleness.

We said goodbye to Izzy this season. What was your initial reaction to learning his fate, and how did you prepare for his death?
Con O’Neill: You know what, I’ve been around a long time, and going through those first few scripts and seeing which way the arc was going, it didn’t surprise me.
This is so god-damn tragic to me.
Obligatory disclaimer that I don't want to put words in anyone's mouth, or make it sound like this is the only way to interpret this.
Having just watched a big chunk of Con's filmography, this man has played so. many. tragic. queer. characters. So many tragic characters in general, but so many of them queer and...I mean we were all really hoping that Izzy wouldn't be one of them, but to think he might have been hoping that and then been wrong, and seen that bus coming? Makes me feel awful.
I agree that he got to really go out with a bang, and did an amazing job, all the awards, really great arc - but God I wish this role had bucked the long, long, trend.

what do you mean not everyone watched con o'neill's entire filmography over the course of months
(also this is because I referred to Val from Uncle as "a famous role of his" in a conversation and @zrayak's response was "big feldspar moment, honey")

The Riff Raff Element (1993) was one of the last pieces of Con's filmography I watched last year, because I had to buy it on DVD from the UK. But it was SO worth it. I'm gonna upload his scenes somewhere soon, but for now here is a sampling of screencaps.
His character is Jed, a typical sleazy fence for a couple of the protagonists, who rob empty houses, lift wallets, etc.
He spends all his screentime menacing the female thief who owes him money, doing normal Con O'Neill character things like:
Ripping the heads off dolls.
Breaking into her room dramatically dressed in all black with leather gloves, then sitting on the frou-frou children's bed because he blends right in.
Literally crawling over to her and getting all up in her space once it's her turn to sit on the bed.
Standing like this for some reason after he closes the door?
Holding her face in his still-gloved hand.
Hugging her after she attacks him (he really looks like he's into it, too.)
Slowwwly removing his gloves ...
... So he can cuddle a stuffed bunny with his bare hands. (He does not rip its head off.)
He apparently sticks around all night (they're clear nothing sexual occurs between them), but the gloves are back on in the morning when he threatens her while checking his eyebrows in a spoon. (That reflection would be upside down, which just makes it funnier.)
Then he leaves! And apparently that's where his character arc ends because he's not in any other episodes. A shame, because Jed was so ridiculously camp yet somehow still sexy. Because that's the magic of Con O'Neill!

Con O'Neill Movie Masterpost
So this beautiful, kindhearted soul on Twitter is working on the whole Con O'Neill filmography masterlist along with free links (arrrrg!) for all our freaks' convenience, and I thought I'd share the find here too! I myself was searching for quite some time for some of these seemingly long-forgotten movies/films before coming across this post, so I know the struggle — and I would rather if you didn't have to endure the same lol
If you find this useful, send the op some love! Happy viewing! <3

Exploring Con O'Neill's Filmography Day #?-Pie In The Sky S02 Ep08
WARNINGS: Gun violence, alcoholism, pain meds addition, disability due to gun violence, workplace ableism, slight comment that could maybe be taken as transphobia? I'm also going to add slight passive suicidal ideation for the character Con plays.
CON IS SEMI-LIKEABLE IN THIS WHICH IS A SHOCK.
This is a cop/crime procedural, but unlike the ones I grew up with in the US in the mid to late 2000s/2010s this has no claws. Seriously, the main plot is driven by pudding. I align more with ACAB sentiments (obviously), and this does fall into Copoganda. But I'm here for Con, and not much else.
I also didn't catch the name of his character till the very end, as this had no subtitles and I'm bad with accents.
As always, I'll be active in the comments if you want to discuss the episode. Especially if you deal with chronic pain/a disabling injury as I have a bone to pick with some scenes, and want to know how close to life they are.
If you haven't watched it, it's less than an hour and something to turn your brain off while watching. Spoilers ahead.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pie In The Sky S02 Ep08 (1995, the same year as 3 Steps to Heaven. Jesus Christ, this man's career is wild)
IS HE GOING TO KILL SOMEONE. Based on what I know about crime procedurals, he's the murder.
(Con's character based on the first scene) He seems fun
Who is this mysterious man in the window
When is this? 80s? British 80s
Love the lesbians
That cop smiled more than any I've ever met
I know nothing about this show, and god, I hope I don't need context
Look at that helmet, how do people take cops seriously in England? I'd just point and laugh.
Why does he have a ceramic rooster?
Are these old ladies going to get murdered.
That guy's side part is really unfortunate
A CANADIAN COP, look at the Mountie
WHY IS SHE CARRYING PUDDING
Mommy issues to the rescue
This is going to be a phoenix write case
I LOVE RED SHIRT LADY'S HAIR
(Con's scene that you've seen online in gifs 'One...Homosexual', you know the one) I LOVE THIS ASSHOLE
YOU ARE THE HOMOSEXUAL
Why is talked to him like a child? Rude as shit. Even when he's acting weird, he probably has a reason. Hear him out and talk.
Slightly transphobic line? Idk how to read that.
Oh good, they're writing checks and not cashing them, Girlbosses
Look, I've just met this old guy(our detective inspector protagonist), but he's fun
It's a British show, there must be a character named JOHN.
IS HE A DETECTIVE AND A CHEF? Oh, that's his wife. God, I thought I was stretched thin. Look at him.
CON? (Con at a firing range?)
HOT
WHAT THE FUCK, why is he shaking?
At least he's wearing ear protection, (DI sneaks up behind him, and taps on his shoulder to alert him to his presence while still holding a gun) DONT FUCKING DO THAT, WHY WOULD YOU TAP ON HIM. HOLDING A GUN.
Con has a need for speed.
WHY ARE THERE SO MANY GUN SCENES WITH CONS CHARACTER. WHO IS HE KILLING
Nvm, that ladies hair is too tall
ARE THEY JUST STEALING/shoplifting? LAME IDIOTS.
Why is Con's character just keeping guns in cars. Shouldn't he know where to hide them better? Cause he already carries one on him. The trunk one is probably just in case he loses his main one?
THE AUDIO STING
Oh, he was a cop. Got injured and is now paranoid. Fair, but unsafe as hell.
They are such shitty shoplifters. She tried to make eye contact with the woman she was stealing from.
Do English people just make a shit ton of Bread Pudding.
Aww they're sisters and not lesbians. Rude.
I'm just sitting here imagining how funny this scene could have been. 5 guns fall out of his wheelchair as she takes it out. "Those are for work"
Are they going to fuck or is one of them going to get shot, I'm getting mixed messages
(A benching rack in the corner)He's getting his gains, I respect it.
2 Con characters addicted to pain meds.
IS HE ALWAYS A SIMP
Pain meds+ Alcohol is got a good look
You didn't choose this but you chose how you react buddy.
Go to therapy
Best DI in media. Stealing Criminal Old Ladies Pudding Recipe
(A chef says a xenophobic line about foreign recipes) What's wrong with foreign recipes? All your shit is bland.
WHY IS IT SO LIQUIDY. GOD I HATE HOT PUDDING
Maybe I'm bad with age, but Con and the detective seem like the same age. He doesn't seem ten years older than her.
He doesn't have to be a sad bastard, yeah, but Con's trapped playing that role. So if we can fix these characters 'problems' In the next twenty minutes I'll be shocked
He's jealous cause you're young and not jaded to the system like he is. You know. Like every ex cop/military/government character.
THAT CUT WAS JARRING (From a peaceful dinner to Con trashing in bed)
WHAT THE FUCK.
Who gets out of a car like that, slowly pulls out a gun, and fires like that? WHAT WAS HIS PLAN? DID HE HAVE DRUGS HE WAS HIDING? WHY??!?!?!?!
THAT WAS THE CHEST. HE SHOULD BE DEAD.
Go to therapy, Jesus Christ. The station would pay for it, and this is interrupting your daily well-being.
(The car shop guy goes to his house to hand over his keys personally, they do a weird double-take glance thing) That interaction post-nightmare felt gay? Is that just me?
What the fuck does 'twirlers' mean? Am I just not British enough to understand that?
73 arrests for shoplifting and they're still this shit? WHAT?
4 pistoles seem low based on his history. But I know a guy who has two hundred firearms anywhere from black powder with buckshot to pistols, and he's just a nurse...Well, maybe rural North West US is not the normal standard to judge by.
ALSO DON'T HIDE A FIREARM LIKE THAT. Does it just slide around in his trunk?
They're such jackasses to him, no wonder he's rude
THE FUCKER THAT SHOT HIM IS ALMOST OUT OF JAIL? MURDER HIM CON
TRUE THO, as long as he stays a cop feeling like this there's no point. He is just kind of stuck feeling like his life has no meaning. It's shit, but if he finds no point to living then yeah. He'll never move on
ANGRY CON. YESSSSS!!!!!
I was half expecting him to pull out a gun
THE OLD MAN HAS DRIP
THAT GUY IS GIANT
The nice thing about being a disabled cop here is no one suspects you and socially we're trained to ignore people with disabilities. It's something our governments actually uses in day to day life. I kinda hoped they cover that more.
I don't think you can pull out credit cards like that. Any bank would be suspicious.
WHY IS HE STILL AFTER THE RECIPIES
HE'S ONLY ASKING THEM FIRST SO THEN HE CAN GET THE FUCKING RECIPE AND THEN ARREST HIM. What in the Paddington bear logic is this this?
Con was playing a character named Ian? Cool.
Also, NOW WE HAVE ANOTHER CON CHARACTER DOING DUMB GUN SHIT. That brings us up to 5 characters baby (Telestar, Vengence is Mine, Blood Brothers, 3 Steps To Heaven, now this). The worst part is the only Con character I trust with a gun is Val. Cliff is responsible, but I still don't trust him. Izzy can shoot, and due to hijinks in the story, he might accidentally shoot someone.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Overall:
Took a minute to understand what everything was going on. They brought up a fun idea about how cops use PR. I wish Ian's issues were resolved in the end. He just kind of get's his groove back and suddenly everything's 'okay'. He still hates himself, and struggles with a pain pill and alcohol addiction.
Ian trying to prove he's still useful is giving me some hope for Izzy season 2. Con pulls it off really well. You see Ian's frustration with needing to ask for help, and pushing himself past his limits. You can feel frustration from Ian knowing he's being sent on this baby case for essentially bullshit reasons. He spoke up and upper management essentially remembered he existed. This is a really fun way to use Con's chops as a serious, but fun character.
The old lady plot was weird but fun. Girlbosing legends. Not knowing the protagonist, and being surprised when he rerouted a case just to get a recipe was funny.
Overall an enjoyable episode, besides a slightly transphobic joke, it's not as 90s as it could be. Also, he and the car salesmen guy at the end there had as much chemistry as he and the detective had. Get you a guy who can do both.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Con:8/10. Fun, angry guy. Wish he got therapy.
Story: 6-7/10. Fun, I know depicting cops like this is exactly how they get away with doing awful shit, but seeing a cop story that wasn't life and death(besides Ian possible hurting himself) was fun. Felt new, at the very least. I knew nothing about this show but could still watch it.
Cinematography: 6/10. Of its era, but you get the feeling of putting on a warm coat. This is something that they would play at a hotel, on the free stations. You've definitely seen something like this before.
Overall I'd say around a 7. If I rank it, low B. Just cause he's not a real protagonist in the series, and I want to show love to the shit Con put his whole chest into. But it wasn't a bad watch. Fun contained story.
@ivegotnonameidea thanks for the recommendation ;)

I've never hyperfixated so hard on a character or actor like this before. I've never posted so much on Tumblr, I wasn't active on twt at all before yet here I am stalking con's twitter every day. I never watch an actor's entire filmography. I had never made gifs before. I'm usually over a show or character in like a month or less. How did con o'neill did that??? HOW??
#the only thing left for me is to read izzy fanfics#and the only reason I haven't is because i just never read I don't have the attention span#but i want to do it lol
