Evan Farmer brings a diverse array of talents to TLC's "While You Were Out" (2002) as the host of the hit home design series. In addition to his music career and roles on screens large and small, Evan studied architecture at Tulane University and has worked as a draftsman and as a graphics designer at several firms. He also owns his own business (Renovolution) renovating single-family homes, and has a strong interest in carpentry and restoration. Evan's on-camera presence, combined with his education and real-life experiences, make him a perfect fit to host While You Were Out. Evan is well known for his television role in which he portrayed heartthrob Jerry O'Keefe, in MTV's smash-hit and first ever Made-For-TV-Movie 2gether (2000) (TV). He also recorded lead vocals for the soundtrack and follow up album, which together went platinum worldwide. The success of the movie spawned a weekly MTV series of the same name, with Evan continuing in the lead role. Evan has also guest hosted MTV's "Total Request Live" (1998) for Carson Daly - the cable networks most-watched program. The popularity of 2gether (2000) (TV) led Evan to an even bigger showcase for his talent performing as an opening act for Britney Spears during her 2000 "Oops I Did It Again" summer tour. Evan also previously toured with the hit Russian Pop-Rock group "Ha-Ha" (pronounced Na-Na), where he sang and played guitar in sold-out arenas throughout Russia. Evan also has a film career and has acted in films such as Austin Powers in Goldmember (2002) and Shaft (2000) starring Samuel L. Jackson. Evan's small screen credits include guest-starring roles on the television series "JAG" (1995) and a recurring role on CBS's "The Guiding Light" (1952). Evan also lent his voice talent to the popular animated comedy series "Daria" (1997), for three years. Evan currently resides in New York City. IMDb Mini Biography By: Discovery Press Release 2004

About the Movie Section

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).

Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.

Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)

While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:

  • I added "runners up" to Top 10 lists, treating them as ties where applicable and numbering them accordingly at the bottom of each list.
  • Regarding those polls wherein "franchise" movies were submitted as one project until BFI's policy changed to regard them separately, I treated them as ties and renumbered the affected lists accordingly (e.g. the Godfather films).

Regarding profile removals and data corrections:

  • If you would like your profile removed from this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's gone from their site, it should soon be gone from this site.
  • If you would like to correct movie data on this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's corrected on their site, it should soon be corrected on this site.
  • For additional corrections and profile removals, please e-mail The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).

Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
