The following IM conversation took place at approximately 11 a.m. ET between myself and the totally-happily married Abby West (who writes PopWatch’s Bones recaps).
When was the last time you IM’d, emailed, or phoned a friend on a closing day to sanction a crush?
Mandi: dude. i am in love with Boreanaz now.
a little.
i watched the season 2 Bones DVD in 2 days.
i thought i was just into Booth
but then i spent an hour watching Boreanaz interviews on YouTube.
and i kinda heart him now.
that is all.
Abby: you see!!!
told you!!!
I’m not just a boy-crazy spaz.
Mandi: well, let’s not jump to THAT conclusion
yet
Abby: um, well, okay. true
but still
Mandi: i think he’s going to be one of those men who gets better with age.
he’s less beefcake and more MAN
Abby: he’s kinda awesome and I will take you down to get to him if ever I need to.

Ladies, where have you been? David B was nice as a hottie vampire with a soul on Buffy/Angel, but he’s a real MAN on Bones. I’ve seen every episode and LOVE his character. David B and his co-star Emily Deschanel have real chemistry; the sparks practically fly out of the TV! Did you see the kiss under the mistletoe episode? WOW!
Of course, it is quite understandable to crush on Boreanaz, who’s dripping with HOTNESS on Bones.
Oh posts on David B make me so happy. I love him so much!
Keep on with spreading the love for Bones: great cast, great chemistry, fun stories.
Last year my sister and I went to a talk and book-signing by writer and Bones producer Kathy Reichs. As we left the signing line clutching our books, all we could think was “we just got to meet someone who knows Angel”. Squeal. Kathy hearts him too, she told us as much in the packed auditorium (though some in the audience were puzzled about all the Bones talk. Did they think it was going to be a serious lecture? Fools;)). And she was happy to discuss her involvement with Bones too. Mucho bonus.
ANGEL ANGEL ANGEL!!!
Sorry, forgot to answer the question posed by Mandi.
I did this about a month ago. On catching up on DVD of the Taming of the Shrew from the BBC’s excellent Shakespeare Re-told series I immediately contacted a friend who has a crush on Rufus Sewell that I was now completely understood and now had a thing for him too(have to bump someone else of my list pretty shortly). We acted all pathetic for a few moments as we recounted some moments from this show. BTW, he spending a good portion of it in women’s clothing and he’s still yummy.
I can’t get over the fact that this is “Commander Tom’s” son. That bein said he certainly aging well. Yum.
I like him, and my dad even admitted to having one of those straight-guy “man crushes” on him- I think he just wants to be Booth.
could not agree with you more on david but my official crush is jeffrey donovan from burn notice. the first time i hearted him was on the phenomenal touching evil and i harrassed all of my friends. i like him so much that i sat through hitch. i had been saving burn notice and finally watched the whole season thursday when i was home sick. now i love him even more and my friends really, really cannot stand him.
“Hello Salty Goodness.”
He has definitely aged well and seems so happy to be able to smile on TV now.
I still haven’t deleted his Graham Norton appearance from my DVR. It’s just too good to let go.
Oh, yeah, baby! Mr. Boreanaz has certainly aged well. I too caught up with the 1st Season of Bones when it came out on DVD last year, and have been hooked on the show ever since. I believe the cast is underrated; it’s a fantastic ensemble. I hope to see this man on my television set for years to come. He can protect me any day of the week!
Since I just Netflixed Bones season two too, that feeling of growing Borneanaz love is familiar.
All you chickees need to step back!! David B. has been and always will be my tv husband!! And yes, I am a happily married woman. LOL
Love him! I think he looks better on Bones than he did on Buffy/Angel. He’s the only reason I decided to watch Bones in the first place. Although, I stayed for the well rounded cast. Why don’t more people what that show????
*sigh* David Boreanaz makes my heart flutter – I think my bf’s jealous
David Boreanaz is just hot! I love Bones it is great show.
I must say I also have a TV crush on Wentworth Miller and that guy who plays Jack on Men in Trees, James Topher I think? Anyway they are both hot too!
Pamela, isn’t Rufus Sewell dreamy? So glad to know I’m not alone. To answer Mandi’s question, I recall contacting a friend of mine to gush about my new love for Charlie Cox immediately after seeing him in “Stardust.” And because she is such a good friend, she now does her best to work him into our conversations just as she does with my other loves Christian Bale and David Tennant.
Oh and David Boreanaz is my happy place
Tuesday’s are now my favorite day of the week. I get up to Angel in the morning and now get Bones on TNT before bed at night. Talk about sweet dreams.
Good lord! I could not agree more… although, I am desperate for new Bones! April is SO far away!!!
Check out his movie ‘These Girls’ for some beautiful David! lol
I can confirm that David is as hot in person as he is on TV … he made an appearance at the NHL All-Star Game this weekend and I walked the red carpet with him. YOWZA!
I do not watch Bones, but as someone who watched Buffy religiously my love for David is etched in stone. I’ll never forget seeing him in the very first episode of Buffy. There’s Buffy walking down a dark alley way, someone is following her. She jumps up above the alley, over her purser and then tackles him. And with the sexist smile ever, he says something like “I don’t bite.” I was hooked.
My friend and I watched Buffy and Angel faithfully and we would just live for the episodes where Angel would become evil and David B would rock those leather pants!!! As Cordelia would say, Hello salty goodness!
I was a Buffy fan but never really paid much attention to him then. But started seeing the promos for Bones late last year and immediately bought seasons 1 and 2. Hooked. He is beautiful and the cast is spectaular. Agree that they are way underrated. Are you listening Emmy’s and Golden Globes? Love, love, love on the show when he wears t-shirt/jeans with that short brown leather jacket.
Just the other day, my friend and I shared our celebrity crushes via IM…
me: i think matthew fox is hot.
S: some men just have it
me: my other tv love is lee pace, of pushing daisies
he’s odd
S: yeah I dig him too
very innocent looking
boyish and i like that
haha
me: what? we have a similar attraction?
I have been in love with David B since his days on Buffy/Angel and he really does get better with age! His dad is a local weatherman here in Philly and his dad is kinda hot too, so we will have a long wave of salty goodness ahead of us! (Also, the time David surprised his dad on-air during his dad’s anniversary at the station made it the best weather segment I ever saw!)
I’m not afraid to admit I had a poster of David on my wall when I was 15 and he was Angel. He’s the reason I started watching Bones, which is now my favorite show on TV. I even found that “Angel” is on at 6 am on TNT one early, early morning and got way too excited about it. Yeah, David will always be my TV crush.
