The Unusuals Adam Goldberg, who plays Detective Eric Delahoy, is a familiar face to most as he has been in front of or behind the camera for almost 20 years. Born in Santa Monica and raised near Miami Beach by Jewish and Roman Catholic parents, Goldberg is known for his neurotic characters. Adam had several small parts in cult classic movies like Dazed and Confused, Son in Law and Higher Learning before he gained acclaim for his role in Steven Spielberg’s epic Saving Private Ryan as Private Stanley Mellish. Adam appeared on award winning TV shows like Friends, ER and NYPD Blue in the late 90’s. The multi-talented Goldberg then wrote and directed the features Scotch & Milk and I Love Your Work. Recently Adam has had TV roles in sitcoms Joey and Entourage but he has also focused on launching a music career with his band LANDy this year. Now Goldberg finds himself at the center of the new police dramedy “The Unusuals” playing Detective Eric Delahoy who is trying his best to die on the job in the Big Apple.
Adam developed his love for acting in local workshops as a teen and later attended Sarah Lawrence College in Yonkers, NY where he was active in campus theatrical productions. Romantically, Goldberg has dated a few starlets including Natasha Lyonne, Julie Delpy and Christina Ricci. Read more about Adam Goldberg on his biography page.
The Unusuals Harold Perrineau who plays Detective Leo Banks is no newcomer to the television scene as he has been around since the early 80’s where he got his start on a television episode of “Fame” in 1982. From there Harold was in and out of television and movies with various small roles. Harold really bursted onto the scene with a part in HBO’s prison drama “Oz” which cast him as Augustus Hill for some 56 episodes. As “Oz” ended he caught on with another show which you may have heard of called “Lost”. He was cast as plane survivor Michael Dawson for 60 episodes until he was killed off after a bomb he was diffusing detonated. Now Harold finds himself at the center of new police drama “The Unusuals” playing Detective Leo Banks right in his own backyard of New York City.
Harold was born and raised in Brooklyn and later attended the Shenandoah Conservatory in Virgina where studied music and theater. Read more about Harold Perrineau on his biography page.
