They have SO been annoying: They failed to be aesthetically pleasing enough to posters’ not-unrealistically-high-at-all standards. Those fugly skanks are so thoughtless and rude.

Bridget Fonda, niece of terrific actress Jane Fonda and granddaughter of legendary Henry Fonda, inherited little if any of their talent.  
Instead she shares the far less impressive acting skills of her father Peter Fonda.

Along with 80% of the rest of Hollywood. But she isn’t ugly. Not even slightly.

How has Colin Hanks not been mentioned yet?

He is a terrible, awful actor.

And when you compare him to his father it becomes a joke.

How did he think he was going to live up to THOSE shoes?

Bridget Fonda is a very attractive woman who has been very good in quite a few movies.

I like Colin Hanks, actually. He wasn’t so great on Dexter but he found the right note on Fargo.

I have another addition: Miley Cyrus. While I find her generally repellent, she did well as guest host of SNL.

Are the OP’s parent’s famous for anything?

To be fair, the OP did leave open the possibility of being untalented. I can’t say, as I haven’t seen the woman before.

Crap. I thought it was untalented OR ugly. I retract my entry and withdraw from the thread.

Is that Fez in that pic?

Rumer Willis and Bobbi Kristina take after their dads, which is unlucky given the alternative. I guess. This thread is kinda stupid.

Oh, whoops, you’re right. I thought it was untalented OR ugly. And, given the possibility of a punctuation error, we can probably throw “annoying” into the mix too. So, annoying, untalented and ugly leaves… who, exactly?

Peter Fonda has “less impressive acting skills”? He has a Golden Globe award, an Oscar nomination and a SAG nomination. (Plus another Oscar nomination for co-writing Easy Rider.

People here are very harsh judges of appearance and acting ability.

She certainly looks…curious…

She does, however, look older than each of her parents. Or, perhaps, both.

Yeah, I’ll have to agree with you there. Far from butt-ugly. What happened to her? The last time I saw her on TV (mid-90’s, probably), she was a bulldozer with a man’s haircut, whining about her rotten childhood to some talk show interviewer.
