Every moment that cheerfully polite Chechen mobster NoHo Hank (Anthony Carrigan, Victor Zsasz in hero series Gotham) is on screen in dark comedy series Barry is a golden trove of absurdity, elaborate schemes and mangled English. In Season 2 episode 7, as he's about to be burned to death with his gang, he gives us the truth of who he really is. "I have been lying about who I am my entire life. Real talk? I should not be a manager of crime syndicate. I should be manager of hotel," Hank says. "I'm nice. I'm polite. I'm optometrist by nature. But because I did not have courage to stand up and be my true self, nice guy, and instead chose pants-on-fire existence, we are all on the barbecue bus." Literally no one was fooled. Here are just five moments that make you the best-loved character...
NO GROOMING, MAN
Anthony developed the hairloss condition alopecia areata when he was 10 and lost every hair on his body by the age of 15. He used to wear wigs and fake eyebrows but stopped that in 2010.
SEASON 1 EPISODE 3: THE DHL BULLET
NoHo Hank sets up one of his overly elaborate schemes, this time to send a threatening bullet to the Bolivian gang, via DHL courier, to hint that he will kill one of their men. Of course, with DHL's vague 12-hour window of delivery time, he tells Barry (Bill Hader), who's about to pull the trigger, to wait for the delivery. Later Hank sends Barry an SMS that leaves Barry bemused. PS: Pause and read Hank's texts for the emojis alone.
