'Fraid I agree ... there was *no* attempt as far as I can see to match Travis II to the the character already established, and it's a shame.

On "Travis: the Final Act," Chris Boucher openly states that he thought it would be insulting the intelligence of the audience to pretend that it was the same actor. I like it myself-- shows how two actors can have different takes on the same role.

I can't agree that it's a shame. Far better to let the actor give us his own take on the role, than to have him do a Greif impression.
