I think Denise would be pretty...she's so superficial that her looks are important to her.

"Witchy" Denise will regret all she's done. I'm willing to bet she is behind Leland's latest behavior. She must have been planting the seed in his head for a while. Stuff like, "The only way to keep her safe would for her to be behind bars." Those kinds of things. She seems very manipulative.

You are right she is prim and proper and most likely pretty.

[Ines]

Traci wrote: I think Denise would be pretty...she's so superficial that her looks are important to her. "

Traci and Dana, you're probably right. She has to value her looks, she used to take a lot of care on Gemma's. However, she seems taken aback by Leland's behaviour (even if she emulated it). I wonder if she will have to step on to Charley's side to "bring" Leland back to "normal".

[Dana, Founder]

You may be right she may be switching to Team Charley.

I'm still for Eduardo...I love the way his hair curls and want to get my hands in it!

Traci, I love Eduardo, too...he is exactly what I envision when I read about Reyes. Notice, I picked a MAN, not a boy.

[Ines]

I like Jason a lot and I understand it was Darynda's choice, but I have to change my vote for Eduardo. Plus, I'm pretty sure I can pronounce his name so that's a bonus for me.

Dayrnda put Eduardo's pic up on her Facebook page today as a potential Reyes and he's gotten a bunch of "likes" and good comments!

Dayrnd..."

Oh, I saw that she tweeted the image but I didn't know about the facebook page. I'm glad she likes him as well!!

Mel wrote: "Eduardo Verastegui as Reyes
WOW, MEL! He is SO very much Reyes. Nice choice!"

Yeah, I saw that. I just didn't realise how far she went with it until she tweeted it today and now obviously on facebook. Seems you were right on spot! ;)

[Mel]

Maybe Darynda and I think a lot alike. We both have the same sexy vision of Reyes swimming in our heads every time we think of him. Eerie or Cool? I do not know, but Eduardo is my Reyes....

[Candie]

I really like Eduardo. He's kinda perfect! :-)

And you also use "bejesus"! But it's hard to associate a "perfect" character with a real person. Eduardo was really a finding, Mel.

[Mel]

Thanks...I hope everyone enjoys drooling;-)

i totally agree. dark and he's got the stare down. :]

[Stephanie]

Eduardo definitely has my vote, too!! I mean, they're all hot, but Eduardo has that special sexy-evil thing going on for him ;-)

[Mel]

Although his hair is slicked back (I prefer the longer locks to run fingers through), he looks bad in this one...

Oh my, my....those kissable lips. ;-)

[Misty]

i like that, i like that a lot!

I like Emma Stone for Charley, she can pull off the sillies and still be a knock out!

Plus he's wet :)

[Misty]

She might not have the goods required to fill the roles of danger and will robinson.

[Mel]

Misty, I think Charlie will be the hardest to fill. She needs to have curves like a "real" woman and not look anorexic like so many stars.

[Candie]

These Eduardo pics are killin' me Mel! :-) Keep 'em coming! hehe

Misty- I love Emma Stone. She's so quirky!

How come you discover these people? Great work Mel, she even has the hair I imagined for Charley! And from the second picture, she does have a danger and will robinson (good one Misty! lol).

He would be an awesome Reyes!

[Mel]

He is very nice looking, indead! It is funny how each of us has our own version of Reyes. I did not think of an actor or model while reading. I looked through lots of pictures until I found the one that resembled the one in my head the closest.

We each have a different fantasy ideal and that makes it more enjoyable. That is what scares me when my favorite books are made into movies or television shows. Twilight and Sookie Stackhouse were ruined on screen in my view.

I'm the same way, Mel! I don't ever picture someone specific while I'm reading, except I do have to say that from the moment I figured out what Charley would look like, Eliza Dushku popped into my head and wouldn't go away!

I hate the disappointment with castings of beloved books onto screen.... I don't like the images in my head being overridden!

And after all those photos of Eduardo, he is now permanently embedded in my brain as Reyes! Which is just fine with me ;-)

[Misty]

I can see that for sure.

[Laura]

I love Eliza Dushku for Charley! She's hot but she can so pull off the comedy. Fantastic choice!

[Stephanie]

Thanks Mel! And she won't have any problems in the roles of danger and will robinson!

[Ines]

Stephanie wrote: "Thanks Mel! And she won't have any problems in the roles of danger and will robinson!"

I love that we also use those names! lol I suffer the same as Stephenie, I hadn't really envisioned anyone in particular, but I think Mel "ruined" me with Eduardo.

[Mel]

So sorry! I am in lust with the man...it is to sad. I have twelve photos of Eduardo on my wall on Facebook. I have become pathetic.

So very true...

[Cindy]

I'm sorry ya'll, but this is my Reyes...and I'm sticking with him!

[Mel]

I luv his bod, too...we can imagine the face of our fantasies. It is perfect!

[Dana, Founder]

Nice! Girls we have game night! Hurry and play!

That ☟ is my idea of Charley!



Sarah Shahi...and look ☝ she has a "Danger" & a "Will Robinson" :)

Yes, she does!

[Traci (Mad Hatter Reads)]

What do you think of Serinda Swan as Charley? She has Danger & Will Robinson too.

Good choice Traci!

[Tabitha]

I love everybody else's ideas, I am sure I have a lot of the same people, but here is my dream list:
Charley - Ksenia Solo. If you have ever watched Lost Girl on Syfy, she captures Charley's sarcasm perfectly.
Gemma - Piper Perabo
Logan Davidson - Stellan Skarsgard
Denise - Michelle Stafford from Young and the Restless
Uncle Bob - the obvious Tom Selleck
Garrett - Victor Ross II
Reyes - Jason Momoa - He can do funny, mean, and sexy!
Cookie - Jennifer Coolidge
Amber - Bailee Madison
Angel - Moises Arias
Donnie - Greg Kheel
Pari - Noomi Rapace
Neil Gosset - Patrick Wilson
Rocket - Kevin James
and a bit premature, but Donovan - Chris Hemsworth
Officer Taft - Kellan Lutz or Paul Marron..... :0)

[Stephanie]

Ever since i started watching "Lost Girl" on Syfy I thought Anna Silk looked like a great Charley.

Wow! You guys have some great choices going, here! Keep it up!

I looooooove Sarah Shahi! She would be perfect and she's awesome with comedy! Anybody who watched "LIFE" would know! Good choice!
