TV Guide Names TV's 25 Greatest Teen Idols

[MANDYFROMSC]

From the TV Guide I got in the mail today:

1. David Cassidy
2. Ricky Nelson
3. John Travolta
4. Johnny Depp
5. Edd Byrnes
6. Luke Perry
7. Richard Chamberlain
8. Bobby Sherman
9. Davy Jones
10. Troy Donahue
11. Jason Priestly
12. Rick Springfield
13. Leif Garrett
14. Donny Osmond
15. Will Smith
16. Scott Baio
17. Ashton Kutcher
18. Clay Aiken
19. Kirk Cameron
20. Ricky Schroder
21. David Boreanaz
22. Chad Michael Murray
23. Michael J. Fox
24. Carson Daly
25. Joey Lawrence

So, who do you think TV Guide left off of this list? How about David Cassidy's younger brother Shawn? Or, better yet, Parker Stevenson! (Can you tell that I never missed an episode of the Hardy Boys?) I always thought that I would one day grow up and become Mrs. Parker Stevenson and have babies with beautiful blue eyes. OK, back to reality now......

This list is a joke! Donny Osmond # 14? Really??? He was one of the biggest teen idols EVER - he should be #1!! Compare him to David Cassidy and you will see who was and is still more successful! But all of those people ahead of him in the list were nowhere near as popular and loved as Donny!

Welcome to the DIS! This is what we call a Zombie post, you resurrected a post that is already 12 years old as your first post. I'm sure the list of idols has changed since then too, lol!

For sure. Norman Reedus would totally be number 1.

OMG it is 12 years old. Usually the date is the first thing I look at.

FTR- when I was younger I was in love with Michael Jackson.

Where on earth was Johnathan Taylor Thomas??? He had 95-97 locked up!!!!

I thought Michael J Fox would have been higher up the list

No wonder it seemed to be missing any current ones - not that I'd recognize them anyway. Most of the names on the list are vaguely familiar but I'd have to google quite a few for a visual to say I actually knew who they were. My crushes were the members of the Bay City Rollers and I couldn't name one of them now to save my life.
