As many other reader/viewers have noted the casting of Will Trent is HORRIBLE and Will's quirks are a big part of what makes the stories so interesting. Aside from Ramon Rodriguez's looks, which are the complete opposite of the character in the books, Will Trent is fastidious to the point of being anal. He would never have stubble on his cheeks unless he'd been held hostage for days on end. He would never wear a loose dress shirt collar barely tucked under his suit coat lapels or have such a poorly tied necktie. The southern accent that comes and goes just makes him seem ridiculous. As other reader/viewers have noted, he captures none of the social awkwardness of people on the autistic spectrum, which I think Will definitely is. The flirting and sexy smiles at Angie were completely out of character. She was the one always coming on to him, not the other way around. And he would never have admitted to one of his co-workers that he loved Angie.
