Of course, if they'd appear together, perhaps we could come to some sort of agreement.

That really would be like staring at the sun though.

And wow, was it hard not to make a dirty comment right there.

I'm willing to risk my sight.

I have no idea how you managed not to make one.

Hell, I have no idea how I managed not to post one.

I have to go on the record and disagree with you, brenda. JA is not regular guy pretty. JA is "are you freaking kidding me?" pretty most of the time. I think the camera makes mad love to him from a multitude of angles, and it's a lovely thing to behold. I have no faith that regular guys + a good angle could do anything like any of these.

That having been said, Bomer is...good freaking god...a different sort of implausible good looks. And, frankly, has done more growing into being insanely pretty than JA has. His pre-Bryce photos are merely goodlooking.

JA's pre-Winchester days are even prettier (but less handsome).

It's probably for the best that more guys don't go around looking like that, or I'd never get anything done.

I am choosing to believe it's a sign of growth.

Prettier maybe. But it's as he aged that he got the grab-you-and-don't-look-away factor. Seriously, there are shots of him I could stare at for half an hour. I don't know that Bomer will have the same trajectory. But I'll pay folding money to see them both in five years.

I think a young Ackles was prettier than Bomer, but current Ackles has aged out of the pretty and into classically handsome.

Bomer is wicked pretty, esp. as Neal. He was merely pretty as Bryce.

Neal-Bomer is the same kind of pretty as Simon-Sean Maher, to me. Very lovely facial structure and body language, an intensity in the gaze, drop dead smile. They remind me of one another a lot.

People who've seen Ackles real-life tell me he's ordinary looking. With his coloring I can see that, if he's chilling or lurking. But I'll bet he can flip that "on" switch.

edit for the misspelling. I know someone named Bohmer so it's autospell for me.

Ackles to me was at his prettiest as Ben/Alec. He has a special relationship with the camera. What Bev said is true. I work with men more handsome than him but I would bet my house that they wouldn't hold a candle to him in a photo/film. They certainly couldn't attain the level at ita's link.

Bomer is in that pretty-like-woah zone right now. I thought he was cute as Bryce, but now he is perfect for the character of Neal.

Leverage will be moving to Sundays when it comes back (June 20) and it returns with a two-hour opening, and apparently runs two hours the next Sunday too. Which...grr! It just means the run will be shorter.

John Rogers directs episode 5, his first full-length directing gig.
