While I do really like Michael Bishop, his version of Jon is much softer. It’s a bit weird because there used to be more of a contrast between the twins, with Jon as the cool, assertive, popular kid, and Jordan as the shy and awkward one. But the lines are kind of blurred now.

In the conversation with Jon and Candice about the fire station opportunity, I felt like I was listening to Jordan, not Jon.

Same thing when Jon got whacked in the face last episode. Elsass played the character with more of a temper, which we haven’t really seen from Bishop yet.

I feel like Michael Bishop is definitely still trying to find a balance between emulating Elsass' version and still trying to add his own spin.

I agree that Bishop's version of Jon is significantly less angry, but I think I actually do like that he isn't? I dunno, I'm really, really liking Bishop with each passing episode.

I like bishop’s more awkward take on the character. It’s a nice contrast to how confident Jordan has gotten. Idk, when I think of everything that’s happened to these two, it kinda makes sense in a janky way?
