Is it your intention to re-post this every hour until I reply? Fine. What you are describing is called aging and maturing, not a personality transplant.

I've been a fan of James Spader since seeing him in
Secretary
. He was 42 then but he certainly didn't look it and catching up with his earlier work I saw practically no change in him over the years, nor in his screen/TV appearances intil the latter part of
Boston Legal
. At that time many posters were concerned that he had health problems because of the dramatic changes in his appearance.
So I can see the point that the OP is making. -

No, something happened where it didn't appear to have posted when I checked the browser window later, so I hit post again. Deleting. I agree, it partially has to do with maturing, but it seems like more than that.

His acting style has changed a little over the years, but it is probably due more to the type roles he is getting now versus the roles he had a little earlier in his career. Seriously though, he was very similar to his earlier work as Alan Shore on The Practice 2003-2004 (loved him in that show), and then his acting style got broader with Boston Legal, Lincoln, and now The Blacklist. Then again, he used a very broad acting style in Curtain Call (1997) and Speaking of Sex2000 (2000), so really this is nothing totally new.
