What I love about Martin’s acting is how he sometimes actually bares his bottom teeth when a scene calls for a Code Red level of anger and/or sheer disbelief.

I don’t know if that’s something people think about a lot. Baring the bottom teeth. We’re so used to seeing the upper teeth through a genuine smile, a wry smile, angry smile, during laughter and even yelling. But those bottom teeth, man. We see those so seldom. When those finally come out, you know shit’s in danger of getting fucked up.

Look at when John Watson bares his bottom teeth and I bet he’s probably really pissed off and about to knock some heads around to show people who’s boss.

Yeah, ok. I hear you. I agree. But… Consider this:

When John Watson is livid, like burn the village to the ground spontaneously combust the person in front of you, he doesn’t show ANY teeth.

Though, it might be because he’s demonstrating that last ounce of restraint.

… on careful consideration, I would not like to be on the receiving end of either type. And may god have mercy on their souls.
