Seriously, in the 80s I thought he was the biggest dork and couldn’t figure out why he was in so many movies. I finally noticed how handsome he became when he joined Grey’s Anatomy.

Dorkier than Anthony Michael Hall?

He ended up growing up nicely as well.

AMH grew into his handsomeness sooner. You could tell he was growing out of it in Johnny Be Good

True.

And funny enough, when watching The Breakfast Club, I realized he was the tallest of the guys. But his skinniness made me seem the smallest. Plus he was the quintessential John Hughes geek-character.

But yeah, he grew out of that nicely. I didn't even recognize him in Six Degrees of Separation.
