All of these are well before my time, and from shows I have never heard of? xp oh wait that's because they're Australian or w/e. So I'm just going to put this guy here:

Parker Lewis was awesome

The crush I had on Ryan Lambert, it was physically painful. I thought I would die because he was a person on tv and I was just a person.

Yeah Laurel, it's more likely that they're after your time or foreign tbh.

I loved Corky Nemec. A lot. I vividly remember the "I know my first name is Steven" TV movie.

Random stuff about the irl Steven kid - he was killed in a motorcycle accident the year that movie came out and his brother is the guy that murdered a woman and kids in Yosemite in the late 90s.

Well I mean I'm only 36, I should know more heart-throbs from the 80s in theory! But I don't know hardly any of these.

xpost yeah that blew my mind when I found out about the stephen stayner/gary stayner connection -- what a messed up family, geez louise

I honestly maybe know like a 10th of these (part 1 and 2 combined)

we should start our own list of our ACTUAL teen hearthrobs and not some saddo buzzfeed old lady's version

like maybe they just google image searched 'TEEN PINUPS' and posted all the dudes whether or not anyone knew who they were?

seems very off the mark to me.

x-post - I know - I only meant that I think several of them were teeny bopper stars in the 90s when we were already at an age where we weren't necessarily watching or concentrating on shows with 12 year olds. I don't know a lot of them either.

I think overall it's more 90s heavy than 80s heavy. Por ejemplo my old roommate who is 5 years younger than I am was like OMG I LOVED (three of them but I forget which) and they were three I'd never heard of because it turned out they were all on shows that I was just too old to have cared about at the time.

yeah you're right -- a lot of the shows referenced seem to be all those Nickelodeon things I was too old for

so *I'm* the saddo old lady,lol

boo

Corin Nemec as Harold Lauder in "The Stand" = epic miscasting.

THIS IS NOT THE PLACE TO BRING THAT UP PHIL

Sorry, some of y'all need a REALITY CHECK.

>:(

'sides, you were all giving short shrift to that OTHER great "Corky" of the 90s:

NB that is NOT a slam at those with Down Syndrome, I dug that show and he was cool on it

BEST SHOW

listen don't even joke about Life Goes On I loved that show a lot which reminds me of someone that should be on here

Dieter Brummer and Dean Cain were big in my school.
I tolerated Jason Donovan because he was occasionally in my Kylie posters but I wasn't really feeling it.

yeah I wasn't big on Jason Donovan

Americans don't even know who Jason Donovan was for the most part.

Which I think is funny considering how famous he was elsewhere.

Harley Cross kinda looks like Darlene

I remember RS being really surprised when he found out I'd never even heard of him until he came up in convo one time (as he does) and I was all like, who dat?

Jason Donovan did inspire our local kebab van, Jason Donervan

OMG THAT IS FANTASTIC

hahaha that is the best

Where is that?? Would make pilgramage to Jason Donervan for chips. May I post that on my FB? I know some ppl would would get a big kick out of that.

grimage not gramage obv

Go ahead! it's in the fine city of Bristol

<3 it

They need a Kylie Min-Hoagie van beside it

that is awesome

This list was definitely made by either a British or Australian person btw.

I have just spent altogether too long trying to remember the name of the 16th-rate British soap star that all my friends cut out pictures of from TV Hits every week. I would like my brain back now please.

Anyway if it's British I'm still the wrong age since I haven't heard of half these guys and there is not enough Sean Maguire or Lee from Let Loose for it to be from my era of TV Hits UK. Prob not enough Craig McLachlan for it to be Australian and my era either.

Also, OMG, got to see how big a detour that is from our usual annual route to Bristol Airport

absence of Alex Papps leads me to believe this was not compiled by an Australian person

Paul Nicholls?

Cursory research leads me to believe she's actually american - oops. That said, she definitely had at least some sort of foreign input.

Yeah I hardly recognise any of these, not many Brits would have seen the vast majority.

so many questions

Yet the presence of neighbors and H&A cast members, Donovan, Peter Andre and several others are very strange from an American perspective. Weird.

I may vote for Damon Pampolina because I read his name and got "Gasolina" stuck in my head

...tbf he's still attractive so I feel a bit bad going "ugh he fat", but.. yeah.

No it isn't the weight it is just . . . everything. NAGL.

Yeah having GISed a bit more, he's def lost it. Smack and all, jesus thats just sad.

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

yeesh

"Terminator 2" actor Edward Furlong has been charged with beating up his girlfriend ... the second time he's been accused of a domestic violence attack in less than a month ... TMZ has learned.

According to court docs obtained by TMZ, the alleged domestic dispute took place on November 21st ... the day before Thanksgiving. Furlong is accused of inflicting corporal injury resulting in a traumatic condition.

his downfall has been happening for so long it's almost not news anymore, lol

maybe he just likes to spread out his fuckedupness over a period of years

seems like he's pretty much king of douchebag island now

it's like a distant, even seedier echo of the continuing lohan adventure

it's more like a seedier version of that creepy X-Files dude and his creepy teenage wife.

Doug Hutchison and Courtney Stodden.
