Welcome to "Why do we appreciate Jensen Ackles..." thread!

I have decided to make this thread because I think Jensen Ackles deserves some serious threads here on these boards as well. I know there are some even now but having watched Jimmy Kimmel's interview with Jensen, which was in my opinion quite "unlucky" (*), I have finally decided to take courage and try to make a serious thread about Jensen Ackles.

I am not saying I have never written anything about Jensen being hot, sexy, great-looking and so on. I am an ordinary woman and I sometimes love and need to talk about good-looking men. I can become pretty "guttery" from time to time too but none of this means I do not appreciate Jensen Ackles as an amazing actor and a very nice person he seems to be in the first place.

What can we talk about in this thread?

1) Jensen Ackles' talent
2) Jensen Ackles' work (TV shows, movies)
3) Jensen Ackles' roles
4) Which of his TV shows/movies is your favourite and why?
5) Which of his roles is your favourite one and why?
6) Are there any TV shows/movies/roles (existing or ones that are to be made yet) you would like Jensen Ackles to see in and why?

I may add other suggestions later.

Please, try to avoid these topics in this thread:

1) Appreciating any of Jensen Ackles' body parts --> There are other threads here for this. And remember, reducing a very talented actor to his body parts is not polite. I know most of us do it just for fun but yet, it is quite rude, and the more considering how shy Jensen Ackles seems to be. Try not to make him feel uncomfortable!

2) Using words like hot/smoking/sexy/yummy and alike --> Jensen Ackles is a very good-looking man but is it really the thing we admire most about him? Try to imagine any of his roles with his good looks but WITHOUT his talent. Would they be so amazing then?

3) Using "guttery" language --> If you feel like making a "guttery" comment, feel free to visit the Looking Into the Sun Thread.

I may add other suggestions later.

Visit the affiliate thread Why do we appreciate Jared Padalecki? too.

(*) --> Was it really necessary for Mr Kimmel to keep talking about Jensen's appearance and rabid fans although it was quite obvious that Jensen felt really uncomfortable about it and wanted to talk more about his work than about his girlfriend? Why did we not see any Supernatural clips? No Ten Inch Hero clips, news or questions? Though I was really pleased to see Jensen in a talk show and realize again how intelligent, kind, funny, nice and laid-back he seems to be.

RESERVING THIS SPOT.

I thought we could start fresh with this site.

Ok. But I liked how many people I already had there.

I appreciate both Jensen and Jared for confirming that they themselves do not have twitter for the safety of their fans. I appreciate them for standing up against all the fakers out there pretending to be them. J & J rock!

Nice. You will be the first on the new list. After me of course.

That's true. So many people truly appreciate Jensen.

And the rumors about him as the Red Hood are true!! Check it out! [www.youtube.com] (thanks to Sue for posting this)

I checked the CW some time ago and unfortunately some people don't read the first post at all. They write about Jensen's lips and eyes and I don't know what else and it really disappoints me every time I read something like that because I really think that there are enough "guttery" threads on CW. They should be able to respect that there's one serious appreciation thread. If they can't think of anything serious, they can leave the thread alone.

And I can see that no one has posted here yet. That makes me sad.

Thank you for the video. I hope I can buy it on a DVD. Unfortunately, I'm still waiting for Ten Inch Hero to come to our country.

You're welcome. I just reposted (WITH credit) what I saw somewhere else.

Makes me a little sad too. I know how hard you worked on the thread over the years and to lose it both there and here is....

I hope it's only the break and not that people don't want to post in my threads.
