Okay so it's 11:30 at night and I'm sitting here watching the "Pollo Loco" episode of Dark Angel Season One, which of course, was Jensen Ackles' first foray into primetime gorgeousness.
I've commented about this episode at great length elsewhere but let's just talk about Jensen. I'd say he's about as good-looking right now as he's ever going to be, in fact I'd say he's at that perfect age right between youth and maturity where some people are fortunate enough to move beyond being merely attractive and actually achieve real beauty.
But damn...at his Dark Angel age he was so, so pretty. He was not only pretty he was so boyish and so slender, he was almost...delicate. Which is certainly not a word I'd use to describe him now and I love the way he looks now but wow. He was such a doll at that age, just a rosy porcelain doll and it was so fleeting -- by Season Two of Dark Angel he was still crazy-gorgeous but he was a year older and had already shed some of that delicate prettiness. By the time he was on Smallville it was mostly gone, though even now you can still catch tiny little glimpses of it. But if you really want to see that bloom on the rose, "Pollo Loco" is the place to go.
Season One is usually available used on Amazon for very little cash and if you're into Jensen Ackles at all, I highly, highly recommend snagging a copy, just for this episode. I don't think it's available anywhere for download.
