Superficial Poll: Facial Hair or Facial Scare?   

Facial hair! It seems to be everywhere these days. Every time I turn around, another of my favorite TV stars has forsaken his razor. What’s up boys? Is it just that you’re enjoying the time off from the set or are you, like me, disgusted at the price of razor refills? I mean, I’m used to getting screwed whenever I fill up my car but must I bleed money just to have nice silky legs?

To get back on point, facial hair does seem to be a fashion trend these days. I’m not necessarily complaining. I’m not big on hair but, if he wears it well (and grooms it well), it can be attractive. It’s funny how quickly it turns others off, though, and that’s why, when I spotted yet another of my favorite TV stars sporting a little something extra on his face these days, I decided it was time for an impromptu poll. Which of these guys (all chosen at random or, you know, because I had pictures of them handy) do you think wears his facial hair best?

    I like that Zach actually trimmed his beard for the TV Guide party. Must better than Paley, that’s for sure.

    Lee Pace looks like the Joker. It’s just creepy. SMG looks mighty fine though!

    I like facial hair on very few guys, and certainly none of these. BJ Novak looks decent with some scruff, as does David Cook on AI. But mostly, I’m not a fan. And OMG, if there is a goatee, I’m SO totally turned off. ICK.

    Well sometimes the scruff is very hot – as in Dark Wesley but these huge beards aren’t my cup of tea I must admit. All of them look far more attractive clean shaven.

    Not a big fan of facial hair, either.

    BTW, Rae–Tag, you’re it!

    Wait wait wait… why is SMG holding hands with Lee Pace? She’s married to Freddie Prinze Jr, right? This concerns me much more than facial hair.

    Zac all the way! He’s hot either way, but the beard does brings out his beautiful eyes.
