thanks for the info taz, i hope it's not as bad as it sounds cos im seriously considering getting it right now!! i did a little searching on tw sites and most people that have brought it are raving about it (although they are biased of course ) apparently there's an interview on it with Him and he answers fan's questions too.

I'm sure it cannot be that bad -but being a Bosco lover seriously makes you biased to anything that Mr Wiles does - case in point - Actually fancying Mr Wiles with his long hair in the Bon Jovi vid, somebody help me....

I know for a fact that before TW and the power of the Bosco attraction I would never have given 'Bon Jovi Wiles' a second look. I know this as I saw that vid, and I even thought the girls original cheating b/f was better looking than the 'hippy artist' (Mr Wiles) that she hooked up with - and I don't particularly even like the cheating bloke with his blonde shoulder length hair - smokin' bod though -

yeah that's my thinking too, which is why im convinced that i must spend £30 on importing a movie no-one's heard of because i fancy the actor!!but the interview sounds hilarious by all accounts (a lot of people are saying they dont know whether they like the interview or the film more!!). specifically His answer to a question from one fan asking him to use the 'f' word is very funny apparently!!

ok, so a small point about the MI crossover. although it wasn't so well received by fans over in the US (though despite this, the crossover was the highest rated show of the night), i was reading posts on a tw uk site and a few have said they actually preferred the MI ep!!

and i watched a few season 2 eps lately (realised how the show was so much better with the old cast and format) and it made me think just how many departures we've seen of main characters. so was wondering, if you had the choice, which character would you bring back?

i would bring back jimmy for a really shallow reason. the show used to be unusual for the fact it had lots of really attractive men! in fact more men than women. this is very unusual in the world of tv! since jimmy and bobby have gone we are only left with davies (sorry i dont see any appeal in carlos!) and of course Bosco. however they are bringing more female characters. i think they need to restore this crucial balance!

Yeah - only Ty and Bos left, I've also never seen the appeal of Carlos - although I did notice in S5 that he seemed to have grown up - I found him quite irritating in the early seasons, going around like he was so hot - when quite frankly next to the other TW guys - he is barely luke warm (I'm being nice - Carlos in the early seasons was a no no) But he is ok now - but on looks he is no Jimmy and on being the hot stuff- well Bosco has it hands down.

I'd prob bring back Bobby - was quite shocked when they killed him off - liked his character a lot.

I would pick bobby too. he was a total hottie and so sweet too. i loved his whole responsible family man attitude considering he had such a bad time with his father.

i have a soft spot for carlos i have to admit. even when he was a jerk in those earlier eps, i felt sorry for him bcos i could understand how his social skills could be stunted by the miserable time he had in foster care. also he isn't that bad looking (no, he's no ty or bosco) but he has a great smile and an impressive physique too, it's just hidden behind that arrogant mouth of his...
oh and remember that ep where he slept with some girl in his med class so he could steal her essay? dont hate me ladies, but i seem to remember thinking 'he could give bosco a run for his money in the six-pack department'!!!

CSI-NY - does anyone watch this? i actually watched it properly for the first time today and guess who i spied? why tw's mysteriously missing fireman j.d hart!! and i know you will think im crazy fi, but he actually looked sorta cute. he was playing some kind of industrial digger part and he was all covered in dirt and looking sorry for himself (probably because he was the killer ) but i also remembered he had a pretty thick NY accent watching csi today, and i have a real thing for the accent!!

Oh I missed CSI NY last night, Wasn't even out, think I was watching some random show on Living, America's Next Tope Model or something, and then Charmed, but if I remembered I would have changed over..

I used to like watching Law and Order both the original and Special Victims Unit but the timelsot has been given to this CSI show and Law and Order Crimnial Intent - which is also quite good. The spin offs for Law and Order seem to work for me - I actually think SVU is better than the original, but then when Benjamin Bratt left the original L&O did lose one of its best assets - if you know what i mean ladies . But the spinoffs for CSI - well lets just say they are not a patch on the original.

Anyway back to CSI NY - btw whenever the main guy comes on (the Grissom-type character) I always get the urge to say in a really annoying voice "its Lieutenant Dan" - Forrest Gump fans will get my drift - absolutely annoys my b/f to no end (just makes me say it more ) Sorry I digess...

CSI NY has been quite good so far, not as good as the original (love Grissom and co!)- but CSI NY is a million times better than CSI Miami, (I think that CSI Miami is a total waste of time - and I'm giving you the nice version of what I think of it!) Would have liked to see Mr JD Hart - yeah he does have a broad NY accent - one of the more attractive aspects about him (I'm sorry...I'll try to like him...naw!)

last night a sore point with me, had a video upset and didnt tape either csi or criminal intent after which i really like (the lead guy is strangely attractive - anyone elso agree?).

Anyway, i have finally seen the episode from s4 where faith and her daughter get caught in a bankraid, and its even more reason why i hate that daughter! faith stops her from 1. being raped and 2. getting shot and STILL she gets stroppy at her?
secondly, i saw the uncut version where bosco and cruz "get together" for the first time. they smash into her mirror and then there is a scene of them reflected in the smashed glass. i decided that the director was being all symbolic about the nature of their relationship!

lastly - boscoslady - i'm afraid i did submit to the temptation and am now the proud owner of "shall we dance" - havent watched it yet but shall report back.

will be watching ep3 of season 6 later - if there is anyway you can all download this season i urge you to, there are some great twists already!

I'm with you on the strange part but attractive, well not so sure, he is not obviously good looking (not ugly by any means either) but I do find him strangely intriguing and for me anyway there does tend to be close correlation between those I find intriguing and attractive- although they definitely don't always equal each other. He is intriguing (but coz its in a 'strange' way I don't find him attractive lol!) but thats more to do with the character than the man - (same distinction that I make with my Bos facination!)

btw Happy Rainbow, liked your take on the symbolic nature of the smashed mirror and Bos and Cruz's relationship, but are you sure it wasn't coz she looked into the mirror - will smash any mirror

No seriously, Smashed mirror = Bos and Cruz disaster in the making, doomed forever -that is deep!

And who says we don't deal with and analyse the 'serious issues' here on the Bosco thread!

Yeah,you tell them Fi!We could be the TW episode analyst extraordinaires...now there's a job title!!

I aint a CSI fan, a bit too real for my liking! I'm seriously pathetic when it comes to things like that!But I have seen a clip(thats all I can take)and saw Gary Sinise and screamed the very same as Fi did at the TV,strangely enough in the same Gumpy voice!!

If I could bring someone back it would have to be Bobby,no question!It'd be great to have doc back too though cos when he wasn't goin mental he was lovely!

I thought the way Doc went out was not right........i don't know about any of you but he was potrayed to be such a grounded guy and then to lose it like that..........i don't know maybe it is just me.......
I have been offline for a while cos my PC was down with a virus but i am back to do some Maurice chattin'!!!

third watch season 6 on rte in ireland from thursday 31st march-can't wait!

hi AIDO!, re season 6 on rte, does that come under the luck of the irish?!

meanwhile does anybody know if us viewers in that remote wilderness called channel 4 land will get to see it? (otherwise emigatration
looks on the cards!)

episode one of season 6 is one of the best TW EVER - enjoy!

Gary Sinise - oh thats Lieutenant Dan's real name - I'm going to try and stop that - but you know when you see an actor and he just reminds you of a particular character - well no matter what he does I'll always think of him as Lieutenant Dan!

Yeah the way Doc went out was just low - but I thought the breakdown was explained as best as it could be. Doc at his best was when he was in control, telling Carlos how it is (lol!), and being the big brother everyone respects. But went all downhill for him. Doc was acting really strange (i.e extremely irritable) before the ep when he shot the fire captain (or whatever he was) - there was the effect of 9/11 and in his personal life he had a lot of trouble, some of his own making if you ask me - why couldn't he just go with his doctor girlfriend and live happily ever after?? They broke up for such a non-reason that was mostly his fault, in my opinion. But despite all that he was one of my fave characters, acting wierd or not.

Hey reds...i've left a message for you on the other tw page sayin i hope YOU feel better,didn't realise it was your comp that was sick!!
Yeah I wasn't overly impressed with the writing out of doc either.Could've been done slightly better,although I was impressed at the surprise of him just walking in and shooting that bloke without hesitation!Grippin stuff!There was a huge inhale of air from me when he did that!(tried to type how an inhale of air would sound and couldn't think of how it would look!!!)

awww thanx Taz! I am glad you cared enough! But yes i am back now! I am still green with envy about TW being on RTE in Ireland! Hopefully C4 will feel a deep sense of shame!

CSI & L&O - to be honest there are so many spin-offs of these two i get mixed up who's in who but i enjoyed the NY one on saturday. i agree not as intriguing as CSI but to be fair it's always difficult for a spin-off to be its own individual show from the start; hopefully the show will develop into its own distinctive brand as the season goes on. and i really enjoy SVU. started watching them on hallmark after L&O (I also have nothing but admiration for mr bratt's work in that show) and they have me gripped. having a difficult time remembering who this lead guy from criminal intent is. will try to check it out when it's on though.

happy rainbow - you seriously are the bosco lovers' only link to the tw world right now!!im doing my damndest to convince my technophobe father broadband will make our lives easier at the moment!! im dying to see that bos/cruz scene for myself, it sounds hot. but i do happen to vaguely remember that the director for that particular ep was none other than skipp sudduth a.k.a sully!! (if i am right)who'd have thought our sweet as pie sully could have such a sensual understanding of symbolism!? course fi's take that cruz's face being enough to break the mirror makes more sense to me...

also it would be great if you could give us some kind of ‘best of’ bobby moments from the movie, maybe that would be enough to break my j.lo aversion!!

hey reds, glad you're back and rid of that nasty computer virus!!

doc - i miss him too. he'd be second on my list of characters i'd want to bring back. i got a huge kick out of his love/hate relationship with carlos and it was really sad the way he left. i did feel his departure was a little contrived or forced, it didn't feel like a natural progression for his character, but on the other hand it still left me shocked (im surprised you could inhale any air taz when he shot that guy, i couldn't breathe!!) and the acting by everyone was superb. Also, taz, I wondered if you’d explain why you thought doc goin crazy made him lovely?!! not sure if i should be worried or if you were joking!!

aido and co - you are so lucky, although you may not feel so glad if there is a mass exodus of bosco-starved ladies to your beautiful part of the world once tw starts airing over there!!

reading all the top 5's i have been reminded of my own faves and mine have all been mentioned above i think.I think the only one that wasn't mentioned is the one where Kim and Bobby are dancing near a gas station at the end.....???
Don't know what that one was called.... But i loved The Self Importance of Carlos, and After Hours was Amazing! That song at the end on the beach was the perfect way to end it. And it was done without sentimentality! I also loved the episode where Carlos finds out about Taylor and Ty. That reminds me was i the only one pissed off after they ended THAT releationship, without even giving it half a storyline?I liked them two together. I was almost as disapointed as when Kim and Bobby didn't get together......
