I don't understand what's happening to me. All of a sudden, I have fallen for a lot more blond men. I was just looking at a picture of Alexander Skarsgard and he is looking pretty hot to me. Of course, Josh Lucas was on Sweet Home Alabama looking as fine as can be. Help!! I like dark-haired guys. What is wrong with me?

The blond actors I like/love:

Josh Lucas
Thomas Jane
Alexander Skarsgard (after telling my sister a few weeks ago I didn't understand the fuss)
Rupert Penry-Jones
Thomas Kretschmann
Douglas Henshall
Daniel Craig

I know I am forgetting some guys. Sorry Eugenia. Brad doesn't make my list. He's cute but he's not one of my men. I'm probably forgetting someone. LOL.

Yeah I think it was when he was crying that made me warm to Eric/Alexander. The bastard!

Yes, Daniel Craig. What a bod!

Hottie McHottie! I love it. Thanks for commiserating with me, Maya.

Maya check out Borders,Waldenbooks or even B&N,B Dalton.
Yes dark hair is the thing but thee are cute blondes out there. Of course Eric is sweet how could you think differently?

I didn't want to like Eric because everyone loves him. I'm weird like that. I like Bill b/c he's all dark and brooding and old fashioned. I know he let's Sookie down later on.

Maya I used to be so against the whole vampire lover thing. Now I am so in love with the vamps.

They should have most of the series at the main bookstore chains. If not check Amazon.com. I heard they were coming out with a boxed set around Christmas for $30.

I love the BDB books for the complexity of the world and the relationships, and the intensity of the storyline. It's deep and it has a lot going on. I'm not one to just read a book for hot sex. I like to have some deep stuff going on with my hot monogamous, vanilla sex. LOL.

Just by looking at the names on the list I have no idea who these men are. I might know them if I see their faces, but I don't know these names.

You might know their faces. Do you watch True Blood? Alexander Skarsgard plays Eric.
Daniel Craig is the new James Bond.
Thomas Jane is on the show Hung on HBO and he played in The Punisher movie that came out a few years ago.
Josh Lucas was the husband in Sweet Home Alabama.
Thomas Kretschmann is a German actor who mostly plays villains.
Rupert Penry-Jones is a British actor and so is Douglas Henshall.

Eric is the vampire that owns that bar? If so, he's cute.

I don't watch tv. Haven't had cable for over a year.

I loved the BDB series in the beginning. I really did. The world building and complex relationships between the characters were what drew me in. And what made it better was that J.R. Ward hinted that one of the brothers could potentially end up living HEA with a non-white human woman.

When I got to about book six, I kind of fell off the wagon. I don't know what happened. I think I'll eventually get back to reading them, but for right now I think I'll wait and see.

Thomas Kretschmann, where?!

I love that guy. They need to make a clone of him so I can have one at home just like him. :-)

Whooo at that list Danielle. Good lawd...Daniel Craig. And he's got a hot British accent to boot.

Whoo...lol.

I can't believe that's Eric (Alexander Skarsgard) from True Blood & Fangtasia. I didn't even recognize him.

I know we talked about it just the other day, but I'm over BDB. She lost me with Vishous and Jane's book. I guess I'll just have to wait until you read the next one to decide if I'll even buy it. =]

Delaney and Giselle, if it's any consolation, Rehvenge's book is way better than Phury and V's books. If it's the multiple storylines that turned you off, that doesn't end, but she did devote equal attention to them all in the latest installment rather than skimming on the romance. Rehv and his woman were very developed (and there was no crazy deus ex machina to allow his mate to stay with him, LOL; that ticked me off in V's). ;)

These must be the exceptions, Danielle. ;) I like Skaarsgard too. It doesn't hurt that he's a dangerous vamp either. ;)

Yeah I like Eric's dangerous appeal, too.
Delaney and Giselle, you're not alone in falling out of love with the BDB boks. The changes don't appeal to everyone. For me, they're like crack. I may hate some of the things that happen, but I want to keep reaing them.

I'm with you Debbie, I have been sans cable for two years now. If there is something I like, I buy the season on DVD... So far I have yet to go pass watching two seasons of anything (well except Top Chef and Project Runway)... Probably some deep seeded commitment issues...

But back on topic... Danielle Craig totally converted me to blonds. I was not even going to go see him as Bond out of my own personal protest against a blond Bond... But then I saw that preview of him walking out of the water and there I was practically in the front row... Lesson I learned, no longer will I hold hair color against any hot body.

Yeah that rising out of the water scene was real nice!

Speaking of Daniel Craig fineness, Casino Royale is coming on USA. I love this movie.

Check Daniel Craig out in the movie Layer Cake. He is pretty hot in it and there are some other cutties with their oh so cute British accents.

I've seen parts of it. It's pretty good and intense.

Too funny, Eugenia!

Maya you are so bad. :)

I'm watching TrueBlood right now. Having to divide up my drool time between Bill and Eric. :)

Parris looks like Paul Walker and Maya, you are bad!

OMG that was so funny.I honestly thought I was the only one who thought stuff like that! Nice to know I am not alone LOL

Yes, it's sexy when a man is into cartoons.

Any guy I end up with will have to be very tolerant about cartoons. I love them. Cartoon Network rocks!

I watch cartoon network late on saturday nites. i like "boondocks" and "bleach"

I love to watch Saturday night because they show anime on Adult Swim, which really grew on me.

I'll turn it to CN and just leave it on. They have me laughing and relaxing.

Teen Titans came on the other day on Cartoon Network. I want to say last Friday and I was like, yeah. They have been cancelled.

Parris likes Teen Titans.

Oh, and yes Danielle. My hero better love cartoons or pretend he does, because I love to watch cartoons and I will watch them in the front of him.

Wow. It's nice to meet other grownups who enjoy cartoons. I get some weird looks from some people about it.

Danielle wrote: "Wow. It's nice to meet other grownups who enjoy cartoons. I get some weird looks from some people about it."

If someone would give me a weird look for watching cartoons, I will give them a weird look, for looking at me stupid, for doing so.

The Venture Brothers is one of my favorites. I also love Courage the Cowardly Dog, Home Movies, Flapjack, and a few others that escape my mind right now.

I love Family Guy. Maya, your brother is an animator? That's so cool!

I'm embarrassed to admit that I used to watch Power Rangers more than my son. And I love Thunder Cats and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Although I haven't seen them in a while.

LOL. I used to love Power Rangers. Mostly because of their bots. xD

That is awesome, dude.

Yeah, those were all good (especially the animal transformers- are you seeing a theme yet? LOL.) I used to watch Toonami. I think Sailor Moon was my first anime. I still remember the cheesy English opening. Then I had to find other sources for my fix. LOL! You know, they used to make anime for adults though. It's much less common now. :(

I loved that cartoon soap opera/melodrama Robotech from 1985 or so. It was so classic, it spanned a couple of generations of characters. The story line was just amazing.

LOL. Bebop is awesome. I was kind of surprised to find myself liking Avatar too. Not what I expected. :)

Cartoons that I've watched growing up, watched as an adult or even watches the reruns.

* Transformers

I have more cartoons, but they will come to me later.

I know that Boomerange on Satellite plays alot of the old cartoons. Smurfs is one of them. My satellite company is giving me it for a few days for free, along with other channels. I will try to watch as much old cartoons as I can.

Arch,

I loved The Smurfs and Alvin and the Chipmunks. I watched them constantly. I could never figure out why there was only one girl and where did Baby Smurf come from if there were no other female smurfs.

I'm talking deep thinking here...

And I forgot all about Captain Caveman!

Captain Caaavvvvveeemmmmaaannn!! That show was a trip.

Gargamel created Smurfette to bring down the smurfs. But something Papa Smurf did, she became a good smurf.

Yes it was.

Thanks Maya.

I loved Thundercats. My favorites growing up (other than the oldies like Bugs Bunny and Woody Woodpecker, Tennesse Tuxedo, etc) were Thundercats, GI Joe, Transformers, Master of the Universe (did not like She-Ra, really lame for me), and a few others.

I've always loved cartoons. But strangely, I've never been a Scooby-Doo fan like some people. I watched it, but it's not a favorite of mine.

My sister was a big Power Rangers fan. I thought Tommy was cute.
