FBI Agent Larry Moss (24, Season 7)

Last night's episode, to me, belonged to Agent Moss.

I like how he asserts his authority, and as a colleague mentioned, his believability as a character makes him likable.

I have seen his character and demeanor adapt through the episodes thus far this season, and I am increasingly looking forward to the different situations and decision-making settings that he finds himself in, as he balances, if not tries to resolve, the internal/personal and professional conflicts that he has to contend with.

He can be as intense as Jack Bauer, but Agent Moss leaves his own imprint on the show.

Aside from that, he looks like a very tall man...maybe it's the black bullet-proof vest he's been wearing on the episodes for the last few weeks.

Below is the biography of the actor that plays Agent Moss, Jeffrey Nordling, from the Fox.com/24 website:
