I feel sorry for Damien Puckler (the actor that played Meisner) losing his job. The guy has really had a hard time in showbiz. He gave a candid teary interview two years ago and it was heartbreaking. One of the things he said was that he was worried with Grimm and how that he could be out of a job at any time.
Then in an interview during the finale night, when I read that the producers saying they forgot to tell him Meisner would be killed off and that he only saw it when he got the script at the last second, I got really mad.
Hopefully they do find a way to bring him back.
In the interview, he was talking about how hard he has to work to get a part and last minute disappointments where he’d think he had a part for it to fall apart at the last minute. He lived in a car (for five years, I believe he said) and then a trailer, and at the time of that interview from two years ago, he was living in a small rented house with his brother and a couple of pets. You just assume these actors are all living well but not necessarily. He said he made $8,000 an episode for Grimm but you know that’s not what you end up with after taxes and all that gets taken out and he said he really is a struggling actor. He was so honest about everything-I really wanted to cry by the time I got to the end of it. I see he’s working on another project (per IMDB) so I hope things work out well for him.
Let us pray for him
