Something’s not right about this promo
Fresh from YouTube, here’s the new video promo for Brothers & Sisters, scored to “Pictures of You” from The Last Goodnight. It’s a feel-good clip collection from Season 1, with a nice mix of poignancy and humor. (As much as I like the song, I also love the part where it drops out so we can hear the Walkers chant “Party! Party!”)
It’s a good promo, sadly lacking in Season 2 teases (we’ll get those, presumably, Sunday night during “Mistakes Were Made, Part 2, Round 4″) but suitable for stoking eagerness for the show’s return. Except for one strange thing. Can you tell what it is? I’m going to put it after the break, so you just watch that clip a couple of times and then click for the rest of this post.
What the heck happened to Kevin?
He’s there in the background a few times, but otherwise, nothing. Julia gets more face time in this clip than he does. Julia! There’s a big emphasis on Nora and Kitty; a fair amount on Justin, Tommy, Rebecca and Robert, some Sarah sprinkled in, a little Saul and Holly at the end, but they couldn’t fit in one lousy close-up of that other brother? What’s up with that? Matthew Rhys, call your agent.
Brothers and Sisters, ABC, promo, the last goodnight

They didn’t show much (if any) of the upcoming season which holds my anxiety level down a little at least. Is Matthew Rhys still filming the movie with Sienna Miller and Keira Knightly? He’s fourth billing on that movie which makes me nervous that he may move on to bigger and better things!

No, filming for that film ended well before production on Season 2 began. In fact, Matthew was one of the few back to the B&S set on the first day of shooting (along with Sally, Calista, and Emily).
