This is Now a Nicholas D'Agosto Fan Site
Last night I was watching The Office finale with Stephanie, and (slight spoiler alert!) just at the moment when Jan grabs her (hot) assistant Hunter and tells him good luck with his band and all that, I grabbed the remote, paused, and screamed "OH MY GOD THAT'S THE KID FROM 'ELECTION'!" and grabbed my laptop (this was exactly as fun for Steph as it sounds, I'm sure.)
I found him in the IMDB listing for Election, where he's credited, oddly enough, as "Larry Fouch (as Nick D'Agosto)"
When I found his IMDB page, there was no mention of The Office on it, but I was still 100% sure that it was the same kid. Each of the over 50 times I've seen "Election", I've always wondered what happened to the kid at the end, the one who counts the votes and says earnestly and profoundly "It's a squeaker, Mr. M. I've got Tracy by a vote. Just one vote." I always thought he was really good in that part.
ANYway at the bottom of his IMDB there was already a message board post saying "Credited in tonight's episode of "The Office" (and the show wasn't even over yet, I love the internet.) Anyway, the only point of this post is to come back later and say "Yeah, I was kind of the first person in the world to write about him? So, yeah."
More Administrative Assistant Hunter next season, please!
Also, the finale was awesome. I think Zulkey and I made our Team Pam and Team Karen shirts (sold out!) way too early. Maybe we should make some more with "I think Pam is kind of a bitch" on the back of the Karen ones...
Alexander Payne found him. He was attending the school where Election was found -- so says Payne in the director's commentary.

WHOOPS, you forgot the "super boring" tag on this post.

He's also co-starring in the election-like "Rocket Science" directed by the guys who made spellbound. he looks very tall and cute.

I interviewed Nick last week on my radio show, “Alchemist’s Playground,” which broadcasts live on Saturday nights at 9 PM on KCLA-FM 99.3 in Los Angeles or live streaming at www.kclafm.com.
Nick is a really cool guy and will be a great addition to the show. He’s funny and very down to earth. Who cares if he doesn’t have cable or a cool TV? Check out the YouTube clips:

Nick was at my brother's wedding this last weekend in Vegas. He is dating my sister-in-law's sister.

I'm sad I missed that wedding! Apparently Nick and Sarah make a cute couple..

Nick is from Omaha, Nebraska. He is from a family of wonderful D'Agostos, a very smart, sharp, loving Italian family. They all have a keen sense of humor, and are a lot of fun to be around. He has two older brothers and two younger really zany sisters. Keep your eyes on him. He's going places! Everyone likes him. He's down to earth and totally cool!

I am a huge fan of Nick. I was a background actor in "Rocket Science." You cannot see me, but it was an awesome movie which is where I first learned about Nick. He is a wonderful actor. I have also seen him on "The Office" and "Heroes." I am an instant fan. He seems like a really cool person. I love his smile. He is really handsome and a wonderful, talented actor.
