Common in Silo. The guy is only good as one-dimensional characters, nothing more than that.

Agreed. They’re supposed to be living for centuries in this silo, and every time I saw him walk on screen with his signature leather jacket I cringed. You just know somebody had to argue that he looked out of place, but he likely insisted he keep his look or not take the role at all.

That's not the actor of the casting, is the wardrobe department.

I think he was fine in the earlier season(s) (what season are they on now?) but agree he still acts the same after the "change" (to not spoil anything).

Yup, because in the beginning his character was one-dimensional. As time goes by, his character gets more depth and that’s where you notice he’s still playing it the same way.
