There are very few people who look good in moustaches or beards. Freddie Mercury looked good, obviously, (though Roger Taylor should really stop with the goatee :crazy: ). Everybody famous seems to go through strange phases of growing facial hair and it never works! Sideburns are a Very Bad Thing too.

There are exceptions, but on the whole all facial hair should be outlawed. Soon as possible really. :lol:

Oh yeah? Gosh, it's been so long since I've seen that I don't even remember! :lol:

But I generally hate facial hair, so clean-shaven.

Man...that is so true. On both accounts. Mutton Chops are as bad as Mullets. puke:

Mutton Chops are okay in BBC period dramas. There are some people that they suit scarily well! I don't know what it is about beards though - most people just look really bad in them!

Brian Blessed = beard = good
Noah Wyle = beard = Very Bad Thing

And look at War Of The Worlds! Season 1, no beards, it's very a very good show. Season 2, Harrison grows a beard - suddenly it's a very bad show. ;) Loads of people grow these things, and often for no apparent reason. There was an episode of The A-Team where Face had a moustache - bad idea. Ditto for the episode of The Fall Guy where Howie grew one. And what about Riker's beard in Star Trek? :eek: As for the Simon brothers these days - Rick and a moustache, okay. But AJ?! Very Bad Thing.

You know, somebody should write a thesis on this. "Why facial hair is generally a bad move for an actor and their television show". :lol: Stubble excepted, obviously. I've never quite got used to the sight of a clean shaven Don Johnson...

I think he looked much better without the mustache, but then again I have never really liked mustaches or beards on anyone in general.

Who's the other guy in the pic?

Doug McClure! Where were you during the seventies and eighties?! (He was also famously turned into Troy McClure or some such in The Simpsons). Strangely wooden actor who became famous in The Virginian, then did a slew of 'action' movies. At The Earth's Core, Land That Time Forgot, People That Time Forgot, etc. Daft films with lovely old SFX that acted the cast off the screen every time. :)

70s- not alive
80s- too young.

:D

But I've seen him now that I think about it.

You were only too young in the eighties if you were born in 1989...

Well, I wasn't into "classic" TV when I was 9.

I was old enough, but I wasn't into

I don't really see how else to put that! :)

It's true though. Some of Ray Harryhausen's earlier movies had appalling acting, but the SFX were wonderful. Later he got a bigger profile, and made Jason And The Argonauts and Clash Of The Titans, which had proper actors in them. Actually Sinbad had Martin Shaw in it, and he's a proper actor, but he was somewhat hampered by an alleged Persian accent. (That's Persia by way of Transylvania, incidentally).

Don't you love old films with wobbly dinosaurs?! I'll take them over CGI any day.

Yes, well, look at Caligula, it doesn't matter sometimes how many classy actors are involved, if it's made by a scum bucket, it winds up as scummy! I saw Clash of the Titans last week and thought it had not aged that well.

I love Clash Of The Titans. I'd still like to be Ray Harryhausen when I grow up! :)

I had seen it at the theater when it first came out, it was a very unusual picture back then! And to bring it back on topic, Harry Hamlin is like Desi, good looking people don't age that well, and he too had a great looking son, well, how could he not, he was married to Ursula Andress at the time, or maybe just shacked up with her.
