Actor Eric Braeden was targeted by Neil Patrick Harris twitter posts. Braeden unkindly declined to fulfill a promise to appear on NPH-starring sitcom How I Met Your Mother.
Harris says:
Eric Braeden is a D-Bag. the actor, (Robin’s dad) agreed to a cameo, then last night bailed, saying the part wasn’t ‘substantial’ enough.
Further he says:
We’ve recast with Ray Wise, a fantastic actor who makes any part ‘substantial’. Super excited to welcome him to the family!
