Foley was on New Adventures of Old Christine again to night and, as usual, I just find him sexy as hell. He’s not an unattractive man, but he isn’t – just going by looks – stereotypically sexy. I’m not sure exactly why he rings my bell, but he sure does, ever since his NewsRadio days. He looks like a choir boy or a junior pastor, and then he just gets a really dirty twinkle in his eye and it’s, “Yum – a _nasty_ choir boy…” He was on New Christine last season, too, and the point of the episode was that she didn’t find him at all attractive, and the whole time I was watching it I was thinking – “Are you _nuts_, Old Christine? Jump him! Jump him!” Anyway, tonight’s ep is continued next week and Christine seems to be warming up to his character. It would make my week to see him in a love scene or two. I remember his NewsRadio love scenes with great affection – I always got a very distinct ‘good kisser’ vibe from those scenes. So, am I the only one? ---

Yes. Yes you are. (Actually, I’m going to say that _here_, you’d probably be in the minority if you _didn’t_, at least amoung the straight women/gay man.) ---

I always thought he was cute. He’s even better looking now with the gray hair. ---

Supposedly he does full frontal in the new movie Postal, by infamous director Uwe Boll (often known as the modern-day Ed Wood and the world’s worst filmmaker). ---

I’ve alway thought both Dave Foley and Bruce McCulloch were sexy. Actually, Bruce more than Dave. Just somethin’ about him… ---

He’s old enough to be my dad and I’d still jump him in an instant. You’re definitely right about the choir boy with the twinkle in his eye. I loved watching him in Kids in the Hall. ---

Oh yes, I’ve thought he was cute ever since the Kids in the Hall. I actually think he’s aged quite well. And he had an on-screen relationship with Maura Tierney, who went on to on-screen love with Noah Wyle _and_ Goran Visnjic. That damn minx! ---

[QUOTE=jayjay] I’ve alway thought both Dave Foley and Bruce McCulloch were sexy. Actually, Bruce more than Dave. Just somethin’ about him… [/QUOTE] I won’t spread for no roses! I also had something of a crush on Dave Foley in the KITH days. And he made a gorgeous French Canadian hooker. ---

Have you seen _Sky High_ yet? He’s gotten very gray and put on a lot of weight (and I don’t think that was a fat suit). ---

It’s just incredibly incongruous for Dave Foley to be visibly aging, though. He still looks, from a distance, like he’s about 12. ---

Dave got pretty fat for a while, but has reigned it in, or so it seems. I can’t judge dude’s looks, but he was the hottest cross-dresser on KITH. ---

[QUOTE=Iggins] I can’t judge dude’s looks, but he was the hottest cross-dresser on KITH. [/QUOTE] He dressed up like a woman on News Radio too. He wasn’t too bad…I could still tell he was a man, but he didn’t look too bad. He’s a hilarious deadpan comic, but am I the only one that gets a slight gay vibe from him (sorry Dave). ---

The gay vibe is probably because he’s played several gay characters (_Kids in the Hall_, _Will & Grace_, [that movie with Brendan Fraser who’s lived in a bomb shelter all his life], and probably others). ---

“These are the Daves I know, I know, these are the Daves I know. Some of them are David, most of them are Dave…” Yeah, he’s awesome. He was pretty hot as a grief counselor on _Scrubs_. I think it’s his attitude that’s hot to me; he’s always very sassy. I’ve never seen FatDave, but hey, that’s all over now. It’s like it never happened. Now let us never speak of it again. ---
