I find TW impossibly attractive, but I think much of this is residual from my childhood reaction to Christopher Reeve. (OTOH, Dean Cain never did much for me. Hmmm.)

I am so you on this. DC obsessed friend could NOT understand my "Eh, whatever ..." about him.

Dean never did much for me back when Lois & Clark was on the air, but when he got a little older and put on some weight, rrowrrr!

I can no longer watch Smallville because I just can't stand Tom Welling. The combination of his almost inhuman physical perfection and his vapidity totally creeps me out. TW could be a lovely person in real life for all I know, but the guy on screen--I feel like he's like this utterly ornate and utterly depthless porcelain figurine. Ditto KK. When two of them are on screen together? I have to leave the room. My depth of loathing for the guy verges on irrational.

It's too bad, because the show has a great premise and MR is compulsively watchable. If the writing were better, maybe it could have overcome the wooden-ness of two of its principal characters, but.....eh. Maybe I would have felt differently if I'd had a bigger investment in the HoYay-aspect of the show.

TW is too muppetty for me. And he looks too manic when he smiles - no matter what the cause, his grin makes it look like he just discovered mastrubation. Dean Cain had the Asian-American cutiness thing going on, plus dimples. And his mom rocked. I remember when she first put him in the tights reasoning that at least that way people wouldn't be looking at his face.

Dean Cain was why I watched Lois & Clark. Dean Cain was why I started a wet men site.

God, he's pretty.

On another topic -- I just watched a Jonas season SG1 that was kind of X Filesish -- the town populated by clone Goaulds. RDA wasn't in it -- they said the Tokra were off trying to find a host for his symbiote. He got a symbiote? When was that, exactly? I do remember him being way fucked up recently, but still said he didn't want one. But the seasons blend in my mind.

He didn't want one, but they stuck one in him anyway, cause he was dying. It was a really cool idea which they did nothing at all interesting with.

What was he dying of, that time?

I honestly can't remember. He's been injured so many, many times. I know it was fatal.

Aha! I found it on tvtome. It's the one with the chick frozen in ice. Why does every SFish series have to have a frozen in ice episode?

I don't know, but man, the Stargate Ice!Chick Episode was terrible. I think I blocked the memory out of self-defense.
