A Fan Speak phrase: this is what you say to yourself when a comedic performer, a non-acting entertainer, or somebody more known for athleticism or looks than in-depth acting ability gets cast in a challenging dramatic role, and you're at least half-expecting a train wreck, and then... wow! They pull it off! Who would've thunk? Sometimes this comes after they seemingly fail at dramatic acting. In hindsight, it may be more because of poor writing or directing than anything else. May result in Tom Hanks Syndrome. The in-universe version is Master Actor. |

The Bully | |
| He Really Can Act / Sugar Wiki / int_1b60dcba | comment |
Mason Creedy likewise just popped up as The Bully or showed up in Jordan Lennon's other shorts as a Spear Carrier or Sacrificial Lamb. In the music video for "Poisoned City", and the short Vultures he pulls off some impressive work as a young drug dealer in the former, and a conflicted mugger in the second. | |

Christmas Special | |
| He Really Can Act / Sugar Wiki / int_535156bc | comment |
Liam Gaynor had showed some good comic timing in The Nutters Christmas Special, but later admitted to feeling like a Lesser Star compared to his peers. In the short Family Painting, despite the three-minute run time, he impressed a lot of people with his restrained performance as a grieving brother reluctant to be there for his family. He also provides a brilliant bit of acting at the end, where an innocent comment from his little brother causes him to break into a smile that lights up the entire frame. | |

Driven to Suicide | |
| He Really Can Act / Sugar Wiki / int_6d332aea | comment |
Lewis Lovhaug had a "holy shit, he can act!" moment, too, when he's nearly Driven to Suicide in the last Silent Hill: Dead Or Alive review. Unlike most times on the site when it was Suicide as Comedy, the crushed look on his face◊ is terrifying. | |

Freak Out | |
| He Really Can Act / Sugar Wiki / int_7fbe9a30 | comment |
Lewis' acting skills as Mechakara ends up at their best during the Clone Saga, when Mechakara has an absolute Freak Out over the revelation that he's been turned into a human. His ranting, screaming and sheer madness is conveyed so well that most people have outright considered this one of the scariest moments for the villain period. | |

The Generic Guy | |
| He Really Can Act / Sugar Wiki / int_80d0d980 | comment |
Adam Douglas's role was as The Generic Guy, being remembered for the "organise a sesh" quote (which he grew sick of). In Mr Peterson, he played The Ditz to perfection, got some of the funniest lines and was noted to be one of the standout performances. He then earned his dramatic chops in Fallen (2021), playing a shell shocked World War I soldier trying to hold onto his idealism - and nailing an English accent to boot. | |

Unsympathetic Comedy Protagonist | |
| He Really Can Act / Sugar Wiki / int_82b4f38e | comment |
Felix Trench as Rudyard in particular has a real talent for making you roll your eyes at and want to comfort him at the same time. Rudyard is normally a jerkass to the nth degree, but when Felix Trench wants you to cry for him, you will cry for him. His genuine terror and sadness in the back half of "Rudyard Makes a Friend," and his gentle concern for Georgie in "Putting the Funn in Funerals" is palpable. | |

Puppy-Dog Eyes | |
| He Really Can Act / Sugar Wiki / int_85e7c12f | comment |
While most of the Critic's proper woobie moments are just Doug putting his natural-born Puppy-Dog Eyes to good use, his breakdown before the Moment of Awesome in the "Commercials Special" wasn't just shouting, screaming or OTT crying, it was... genuinely sad. | |

Deadpan Snarker | |
| He Really Can Act / Sugar Wiki / int_ae3d6438 | comment |
Speaking of "Putting the Funn in Funerals," holy hell, did Ciara Baxendale deserve a reward for that one. Her character Georgie is normally a chill, laid-back girl with several snarky remarks to keep the mood light. This only makes her grief in the episode where her grandmother dies that much more heartbreaking, especially the scene where she cries and rants at an empty house, wondering why she never told Nana how much she meant to her. The scene is the emotional climax of the episode, and Baxendale completely knocks it out of the park. | |

Small Reference Pools | |
| He Really Can Act / Sugar Wiki / int_aff1ee2e | comment |
Most viewers know Rachael Lillis as Jessie and Misty of Pokemon; yet since neither character has much nuance beyond Tsundere Fiery Redhead and Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain Fiery Redhead, there wasn't much potential for her to showcase her abilities there. Her voice-work for Plucky Girl Utena likewise offered little opportunity for much serious acting... until the episodes leading up to the Grand Finale. And Ms. Lillis kills it. D'awws and sniffles aplenty. | |

It Makes Sense in Context | |
| He Really Can Act / Sugar Wiki / int_ba236071 | comment |
Even people who couldn't stand the writing or the plot of "The Review Must Go On" freely admit he did a great job playing a terrified Donnie, a dominating Critic who is just loving calling the shots for once, himself having a breakdown, and the last ten minutes when Donnie is still mostly Donnie, but Critic's traits are and eventually do win out completely. | |

So Proud of You | |

His performance in the Creator/Critic scene was so good that he got a So Proud of You from his dad and the cast commentary even stopped talking so they could enjoy it again. | |

Cerebus Syndrome | |
| He Really Can Act / Sugar Wiki / int_cfdb9e17 | comment |
His scenes in the latter and cerebus syndromed half of Demo Reel can be exhausting on one's emotions. One commenter even said they could have desperately used some Bambi birds after Donnie numbly and sarcastically apologizes to the family for giving a bad performance after hearing that his mother killed herself, and they think he's kidding. | |

CloudCuckooLander | |
| He Really Can Act / Sugar Wiki / int_d46ddfa2 | comment |
Broadway actress Lesli Margherita is mostly famous for her wacky backstage vlogs and for originating Mrs. Wormwood in the Broadway cast of Matilda. Got that image in your head? Here she is singing "God Help the Outcasts" as Esmeralda. There's a reason she has an (unrelated) Olivier. A subtler example is in one of the vlogs, where she has a conversation with Wormwood. She (herself) calls Wormwood a bad parent, to which Wormwood replies, "I'm not a bad parent, I have a bad daughter." A line that shows she clearly knows Wormwood inside and out. |

Ambiguously Gay | |
| He Really Can Act / Sugar Wiki / int_e34400ab | comment |
Dan Godwin basically only had to make Donut a funny Ambiguously Gay character. So when Season 17 made him the central character, many viewers were very impressed with his voicework as Donut has taken charge and become a more assertive character (along with forming an Odd Friendship with Wash). | |
