Why not make the thread about the best looking people in HDTV? Why the negativism?

No Meg Ryan? She used to be a cutie, but looks kind of scary at times now:

Some of those people look like hell on low-definition TVs!
Joan Rivers, for one.

Meg Ryan should play the Joker in the next Batman movie.



Now, I don't know about HDTV, but Britney Spears doesn't look so great on regular television, in print, and heck, even here on our own computer screens:

Seem to all be worthy candidates.

I guess he must not be referring to Jamie Lee Curtis, who was in "True Lies" among other films.

It's pretty funny, but at the same time kinda one-sided. Plus, a lot of the pictures they use to support their arguments seems pretty weak! I know I've got some random shots of myself looking a lot different, depending on the angle/lighting/age....

I admire Jamie Lee Curtis for refusing to get plastic surgery. She once had a liposuction that resulted in complications and an addiction to painkillers. After that, she said: No more. What you see is what you get.

Doesn't count. He looks awful on a black and white television set made in 1945.

I think we can agree that Melissa Theuriau looks great in HD.

Also: what a cheesy site! All the articles written by one guy (the "president and publisher"), and he just keeps wacking on about how everyone isn't "good enough for HDTV". The guy's kinda got a raging boner on the go for "high-def", it would seem.

Addendum: Jamie Lee Curtis had one of the most insane bodies ever. That is all.
