Hrm, on white that's a rather sickly yellowish brown, but on my blue Friends page, it looks all right.

bayesnets - wlokay
teunc - oooh, blue!
geckies - yay! red!

Say WHAT?!
if noly fro Malcolm Reed. *swoon*
Wot wot?!
Colin Firth adn Paul Gross I can understand, Yowie, Hyooge Aqman and Taye Diggs, even Kiefer Sutherland adn Tom Welling, but...

Dominic Keating?!

His face is perennially stuck in the expression crypthanatopsis is wearing in his "sour" icon! There are some goond-loonking Brit actors, but IMHO Keating is knot even in the league of Bakula and Trineer (Tucker), to saz nuffink of Blaylock (T'pol) and Park (Hoshi).

Yiminy! Here I lawaz fogured yew had goond taste... :-P

Amazzling.
This from a viewer of a show featuring James Marsters and Alexis Denisof?! Is there any comparison?
As jereeza would say, I am flubberghosted!

I dunno, I've seen Malcolm laughing and Dominic looking sour-faced, and I think it comes a little too naturally.

:g: You go right ahead, Mel...
... be sure to include the other column of the list for us straight guys, though. :-P

Apples and oranges. They're all attractive in their own way. (And for record, lovely as they are, I'd take Alexis Denisof over James Marsters or David Boreanaz, if he weren't married.)

I just think it's part of who Malcolm is. in BtVS ep "Helpless" you get to see him be very un-Malcolm.

Wlokay, I can understand that.

I might have seen part of that (prolly knot), but I dknot remember it.

You want a snooty British accent? Wot aboat Wesley Wyndam-Pryce?
As for torturedness, who on Angle isn't tortured? Espeshully David Boreanaz.

Actually I don't find his accent snooty, I find it learned and incredibly sexy.

Though, the last few seasons, Wes has been giving Angel a run for his money in the "tormented" department...

Learned it would be, and I can't tell re: sexy, but it'd be fine if only Malcolm weren't so... constipated.

I really do hafta look up that ep of BtVS.

Of curse!
Wes is acksherly my brooding coach, which works out very well now he's angst-ridden by chair, desk, and standing angrily with the rest of the quartet. If only there were an S6. Bha.

I meant Wes, actually... ;P But Malcolm's accent is lovely as well. Of course, I love a man with an accent, so.... ;P

Helpless was s3, ep 12. it's the one where Buffy has to face a vampire without her Slayer Powers.

Oh, well, Wes's accent is undoubtedly educated and attractive. Malcolm... just can't get past the sourness, but that's just me. It's part of why I can't get into characters such as Seven of Nine and T'Pol, but find Kes exceedingly qyoot.

Ohh, the one that's a Watcher trial?
That's why I remember it: I read the summary.

Hey, I even have an angry quartet.
(Though I'm more often Angel in that scenario.
They're often wondering whether I've turned eViol and whether to stake me, too: see the above grant proposal info... and other info forthcoming... J/K! :-P)

I love that song.
:g: It's on the short list for my theme song, along with "Speed" (Billy Idol) and "I'll Sleep When I'm Dead" (Jon Bon Jovi). I love the former, haven't heard the latter, and have eliminated "Who Needs Sleep?" (Barenaked Ladies) despite there being a Chinese phrase in it. :-P

But it's always on the Classic Country station, despite my having been alive when it came out. ::wince::
Wot wot? It's a classic?
I thought that song came out in the early 1990s!
We may be well past the median LiveJournaller age, but we aren't that old, sheesh!
