    Anna Torv is attractive and charismatic, but finding out that Rupert Murdoch is her uncle just ruined it for me.

      According to her Wikipedia, through her estranged father. You can’t pick your relatives and you’re not the same as them. Seems a superficial reason to dislike an actor.

        Rupert Murdoch is not a character in the show. He’s the ex chairman of Fox.

          I think we both misread these posts…I read that comment as John Noble being referred to as Rupert Murdoch (aka evil) and Anna’s uncle in the show (which would be a major spoiler), not as the actual Rupert Murdoch being her uncle in real life…which yeah, I’m pretty surprised by too!

        My bad! Your comment read like John Noble was an evil Rupert Murdoch uncle in the show to me. Agreed him being her real life uncle is a shocker…and glad there’s no spoiler ☺
