Talk:Eric Balfour

The OC and 24
He's one of the three actors to appear on both 24 and the OC (Eddie on The OC, Milo on 24) Along with, Alan Dale (Kaleb on the OC, Vice President on 24), and Navi Rawat (Theresa on the OC, Melanie on 24)
 * He's not mentioned as being Scottish, yet Balfour is a Scottish name. Was he born with it or was it changed?  He sure has an "ethnic" look...could easily play Italian, Greek, Arab, etc.
 * That is probably due to his Native American ancestry.
 * To me he looks super Jewish (and super cute Jewish). When it says Russian, I assume it means Russian Jewish. 15:38, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
 * He never revealed such...He merely said "Russian", and I assume he would have revealed if he were Jewish due to the fact that he was talking about his ethnicity in his interview and the reason he can play characters of different ethnic backgrounds. Michael 05:33, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
 * He is Jewish; both of his parents are Jewish. He mentioned being Jewish on Twitter recently, among other places. All Hallow&#39;s Wraith (talk) 16:34, 15 December 2012 (UTC)

Picture
Since someone took down his picture, can someone find a new one? I'm not adept at figuring out how that is done. Michael 00:01, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Thanks to whomever found the pic. Michael 22:22, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

Removed statement
There was a statement re: Lie with Me that said it contained unsimulated sexual acts. In fact the only thing seen on camera is one of the actresses can be seen holding a penis. There are no actual sexual acts (i.e. penetration) shown on screen and to say so violates WP:BLP. 68.146.8.46 15:36, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
 * he have a arab/sarraceno face.. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 187.114.198.75 (talk) 15:48, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

Scientologist
Should this article include a statement that Balfour is a member of the cult of Scientology? Numerous articles on other actors who are or were members of that cult are identified as such in those articles.DesertSkies120 (talk) 22:34, 25 April 2023 (UTC)


 * Describing someone as being in a cult seems like a pretty serious claim. Do you have sources, and examples of other articles where that description has been applied? DonIago (talk) 02:25, 26 April 2023 (UTC)
