Bateman's a pretty one note actor, but he gets a ton of mileage out it. He stretches between jerk and the smart put-upon guy pretty well.

There was a time when he was the underused gem that peole were waiting for everyone else to discover. He had a series in 84/85 called It's Your Move with Steve Rhoades from Married with Children. It's Your Move was hilarious and Bateman stole the show, sort of like Michael J. Fox did on Family Ties. But it only lasted one season.

he plays about 4 types of characters really well imo. I dont see him as a one note actor as much as many do

It's Your Move

Loved that show. IT's on Youtube. I had the hots for the sister on the show.

There's a good podcast on Nerdist with Jason. He will be the first to tell you he doesn't take his acting skills seriously . He doesn't try to become the character. He molds the character into him.
