I think that's why he doesn't want to be stuck in that character. But he did a great job. If played some nerdy guy in a series, that would be awesome

I would think you're right. Supposedly, he had some troubles in the past with people believing that he played himself. His family members and friends said that he is nice and friendly in real life, and he himself explained that he played the role for the purpose of showing kids that bullying is wrong.

Yup, I find that cool about him tooI mean, I do think it's a shame to not see him in the reunions, but yeah I guess it can be weird being known for that one iconic persona that was totally the opposite of him, someone he based on personal bad experience. But I listened to him on Podcast, Todd Glass show, a comedian friend of his, it's free to listenhe did a recent interview about Biff and told some cool stories about it. I may post a link, but he does embrace it. I remember as a kid, never even having seen a bully but thinking he performed it perfectly
