Wow...I don't think that's funny at all. What an ass. |

He's really not making me care if Art in fact does die.

I used to follow him on twitter but I had to stop, he rants non stop and even if it's supposed to be tongue in cheek I find it relentless and offensive. I do so like the character but if he really is remotely like this he needs to go for the good of the show.

I've been aware of his Twitter 'persona' for some time. I don't much use Twitter myself but I know a few people who will now not watch Justified because of his unpleasant manner. This is a shame and I'm sure the producers of the show are not unaware or unconcerned.

At first I thought he was joking around, but it soon became obvious he's just a hateful individual. How sad. |

Nick's mean spirited rants on Twitter are being talked about on many different fan and message boards. He's not a well liked guy. I've never had an interest in the actor, just his character on Justified. So I don't follow his tweets, and never will. I have to wonder what kind of damage his reputation is taking and how it will hurt his career after Justified. I also wonder if he's just playing some kind of weird role. I'd hate to think he is really that reckless with his career. I did not know who he was until Justified.
And a small part of me also wonders if he's indeed hurting the reputation of the show, and the executives and co-worker that believe in him. I hope not. That would be unfortunate.
Most common folks would lose their job for rants like that on social media. I know actors are not held up to the same standards, but perhaps they should be.

I also followed him for awhile but stopped when it started to make me change the way I felt about his character and, when I stopped, I certainly didn't miss his continual rants. I think TPTB are aware. I'm not sure what they would or could do about it though.

Wow! I don't do Twitter so I had no idea. I'm pretty saddened by all of this.

Maybe he's pissy because Art dies.

Wow! I don't do Twitter so I had no idea. I'm pretty saddened by all of this. This is very common on social media and I don't know the twitter background which is why I didn't take it seriously. (He does joke around.) Seriously, most of the celebs who do this kind of thing have substance abuse problems. |

Maybe he's pissy because Art dies. I was thinking much the same thing Dolphin. I always thought his tweets were mean but this latest thing with Baldwin has ramped it up to a new level. I thought maybe he is venting because he is about to leave the show. I really think the producers would be concerned about the negative publicity it has earned especially when everyone usually says what a great show it is to work on. |

(He does joke around.) S eriously, most of the celebs who do this kind of thing have substance abuse problems. You know, I was wondering about a substance problem. Kind of reminds me of Charlie Sheen in his drug induced stupor days. I can't imagine Nick taking things this far if he's only joking around. I don't mind different opinions, but the mean and nasty remarks are no joking matter. He really insults people. I keep waiting for Nick to come forward and say his Twitter account has been hacked. |

Friday Night Lights author H.G. Bissinger is another one who ranted online and then, went to rehab.
I don't know what is up with NS, but it smells of familiarity.

There was a time when, if you had told me Art was going to be killed off, I would have been heartbroken but not anymore. His tweets are mean spirited. Perhaps the idea of drug use could be the answer. Sad, if true. |

holy shizz I had no idea NS was so off his rocker. I'm glad I watched all of Justified without knowing he was such a loon or I would have prayed for him to die every time he was on screen. Punch him for us, Raylan!  |
