Extremely Shallow Question

[janamelie.livejournal.com]

Hopefully I can be excused on the grounds that my brain has turned to Christmas stress related mush, but I think it's just about relevant to this comm. :p

Would you say the Boyz are more attractive in their days of extreme cuteness (Series 2 era especially) or in their more mature stage circa Series VII?  I simply cannot decide.

Feel free to back up your arguments with pics. ;)

Ooh, I hadn't seen these. Something very intimate about them, isn't there? I suppose because they're close-up and there's no distracting background, so you really focus on his face and eyes.

I could basically write an essay on this whole subject, but for me personally, series V-VI Chris is my favourite. That's when his bod and costumes were at their finest ;-)
Anyone here who knows me will know that I'm a Lister girl and love him the whole way through. However, if I had to choose between adorable baby Lister or older wiser Lister, I would go older. He's just SO boyish in the first few series. I do think he's particularly handsome in S2,4,5 &7 though. I didn't love the baggy boiler suit in S6. If I had to choose an overall favourite series for him it would probably be S7. Physically he looked in great shape, but I also think it was the series where he'd really made the transition from boy to man and the big gap between 6-7 (and what Craig had been through in the meantime) kind of throws it into sharp relief. Series 7 Lister was all grown-up and SMOKIN' hot :-)

And yes, there were the white long johns too...

If you ever feel inclined to write that essay, please do. I love it when you wax poetic about the Boyz. :)

Yes, Series VII isn't one of my faves, but the way Lister looks in it is a big redeeming factor. And I can honestly say that I'd still think that even without the longjohns. I mean, look at my icon. ;)
