This is ridiculous and awesome, so maybe it's awesomely ridiculous

'Law-Enforcement Crushes' Quarterfinals Begin: Castle's Castle vs. Hawaii Five-0's McGarrett! - TVLine

It's a poll, but what I really love about this is how Nathan Fillion is Canadian and Alex O'Loughlin's from Australia. It's the Battle of the Commonwealth Cuties! ::Cue theme music::

Looks-wise, I'll be completely shallow and say O'Loughlin wins (I mean seriously, he looks genetically-engineered). But since the 'contest' is about the characters, I'm totally going for Castle. And only slightly because he's played by a Canadian. :D

I'm with you on this, Castle! But if it had been between Danny and Castle, I would have gone Danny! (grin)

Danny is awesome with awesomesauce, but I'd still go for Castle. ;->

Meh.

Chris Brown (The Bondi Vet) is who you need to cite as a representative product of Australian genetic engineering.

We'll have to agree to disagree, I'm afraid. :) Chris Brown does have that blond, lantern-jawed thing going for him, but Alex O'Loughlin is far more my type. :)

Well to be fair Chris does have the disadvantage of actually being an underwear logo...

LOL. Yeah, that's definitely a minus. :)

I've always wondered where they had him made...

It's probably very shallow of me to vote for Alex, because I think he's a total hottie, but I haven't actually seen Castle so I can't compare them on acting.

Also I have to be neutral on Nationality because I live in Wales.

Wish they had a show where Joe Flanigan was a detective and David Hewlett was his boyfriend who worked in the forensics lab ..........

A show like that would be fantastic. And it would work to their strengths so perfectly. If only. ::sigh::

You truly have the most amazing plot bunnies, you know? I'd love it if you wrote some of them! :D

Alex is inhumanly gorgeous. I can't fault you for voting for him based on looks.

I don't think I can take credit for this bunny - I was thinking of a fanfic I've read before.

I do get a lot of random plot bunnies while chatting to friends. Unfortunately they to tend to turn up while I'm in the middle of another project.

I did actually make a start on the wing!fic,
but I'm trying to finish my vampire!fic at the moment, and I ought to start writing something for Ancient city bingo.

I love you so much right now I can't even tell you.

I <3 the danno icon!!!

I've written the first section. It has Rodney and John in it, and possibly some other SGA characters, but I've created an original world of my own, like you did in Sacrificial Mage (although it probably won't be as long, unless you're willing to wait two years for me to finish).

\o/

I am really, really looking forward to reading this! Even if it takes two years. :D

I thought the comments on the poll were hilarious! People are very committed to the hawtie of their choice...

Me? I vote Benton Fraser all the way. He's currently #11 on the old-school coppers.

(But Neil Caffry from 'White Collar' or Tony from 'NCIS' are totally going to take it.)

Thanks for posting this ridiculously awesome post!

You're probably right about who will win, but it's nice that Fraser got even that far...

I think the whole idea is hilarious. :D
