  1. Archer says:

    I like big brother. Little one doesn’t do a thing for me :)

  2. Kelly Proellocks says:

    Chris is the hottest. ’nuff said.

    1. Kelly Proellocks says:

      Oh a FROS candidate is Joe Lando who played Sully on Dr Quinn Medicine Woman. Mum and I listed over him for many a season.

      1. JenG says:

        Oh yes, Kelly, I too had many a lustfilled thought over Sully. He was quite yummy back in the day. :)

      2. TinaF says:

        Totally agree.

      3. Karen Hawkins says:

        I’ll put him on the list. Intriguing!

  3. Freshechelle says:

    Definitely Chris. With Liam, even if it’s imaginary, seems like there’d be time spent in front of judge. He’s soo young.

    1. Kristina says:

      LOL I feel that way about a lot of actors these days. :D

    2. Sheridan says:

      I might be ok with that on my record…

    3. Susan Mallery says:

      He’s 22… that’s legal!

      1. Freshechelle says:

        You girls are trouble with a capital T.

        1. Karen Hawkins says:

          Or Cougars with a capital C.

          Of course Cougar isn’t a bad term. In fact, I hear it’s sorta ‘in’ and well, you know how important it is to have ALL of the latest accessories when you’re talking fashion.

          1. Kristina says:

            If anything ever happens to my husband, I’m immediately getting a tattoo of a cougar on my bosom, and I let him know this. LOL

  4. Judy F says:

    I think my vote is for Chris. Though both look mighty fine

  5. Angela says:

    Chris is super hot.

  6. JenG says:

    Yeah, I think I gotta go with Chris on this one too but wow, that family sure knows how to breed nice looking boys ;)

    Funny, the first time I saw a photo of Liam (not knowing who he was) I immediately assumed he was Chris’ little brother. Family resemblance is screaming in those eyes.

    1. Karen Hawkins says:

      I didn’t know they were related, either, but when I figured it out, I realized that they do look a lot alike. Those eyes — ohhh yes, those eyes!

  7. Kristina says:

    Chris is my first love, but if I were younger, I could go for the baby of the family. Of course, let us not forget the big brother, Luke. His pictures are harder to find, but still hot. A family of amazing genes, that is.

    1. Karen Hawkins says:

      Gasp! There’s ANOTHER ONE? Off to google!!!

  8. Deb Marlowe says:

    For the first time in my life, I’m going for the blonde over the dark haired one. That Never happens!

  9. Joy says:

    My vote is for Chris!

  10. Pallavi Subramanian says:

    Dude!! Thor…

    You know that scene when – after all that fighting – he sees his hammer and tries to pick it up… Did you see his biceps? And you know that scene when he’s shirtless.

    Yeah. No contest!!!!

    1. Kelly Proellocks says:

      I just keep remembering the times he got hit by the van and sniggering at it.

    2. Karen Hawkins says:

      I know. I saw. I lusted.

      ***sigh***

  11. ev says:

    Chris. I wanna play with his big hammer.

  12. Kelly R/W. says:

    I’d like a Helmsworth sandwich please! Oops, I meant to say those Helmsworth brothers look good no matter how they are prepared…Oh, choose one? Chris. Liam. No Chris! That’s it, Chris ;)

  13. Sheridan says:

    oh good googly moogly! All that should not be allowed in one generation in one family *sigh*

    1. Archer says:

      Add two more and they could be cast as the bridgerton brothers

  14. Claire Bacon says:

    No doubt about it…………….CHRIS!

  15. Pesky says:

    I like Chris, he’s got the sparkly eyes when he smiles thing going for him. However that doesn’t mean his brother isn’t attractive as well.

    What I like about the entire family is you don’t hear a lot of behavioral nonsense about them. They seem to be polite, happy to be acting and just living their lives (yeah they get their pictures taken for dating not really anything bad).

    Polite actors are sexy to me. Kanye, Russell, Charlie…not so much.

    1. Karen Hawkins says:

      Pesky said: Polite actors are sexy to me.

      Truer words were never spoken.

  16. Cheri Champagne says:

    There’s no question in my mind! Chris!! I LOVED him in Thor. mmmm…

  17. Lori Howe says:

    oh good one this week…

    I’ll pick Liam, or Chris.. wait, Lias, no, Chriam,

    darn…how about Mr. Helmsworth

  18. Becky says:

    Absolutely Chris. Those lips are so kissable. Not to mention the beautiful,seductive eyes.

  19. Gail Nichols says:

    Do I have to choose….I would like them both please….with me in the middle:)

  20. Gwen says:

    I pick Chris

  21. Amanda says:

    Chris. Because in the photos, he’s blonder and older and well, I’m geting older, too. Scruffy also suits him better.

  22. evlqn says:

    Karen, my dear, you don’t break up a family unit, you keep them together and EVERYONE is happy. They are all gorgeous in their own ways so we can love them for their individual strengths. That sounded good didn’t it??

    1. Karen Hawkins says:

      Lol! Ok, Ms. Eviqn. Heaven knows I don’t want to be known for breaking up a family!

      (And oh yes, that sounded VERY good!)

  23. Susan Mallery says:

    Liam…

    No, Chris!

    Wait. Liam. Definitely Liam.

    Or Chris…

  24. Kathleen O says:

    I have to go with Chris, who is just a wee bit yummy….but beggers cant be chooser..LOL…Winking….

  25. Carla C says:

    Can’t I have both ???
    Even one at a time … wonder which one to start with

  26. Jen B says:

    I’ve gotta go with Chris on this one. Not that Liam is bad mind you, because he’s not, he’s just not as…well, I don’t know…

  27. cail says:

    Both!!!

  28. Julie says:

    While I absolutely LOVE the name Liam, I’m going with Chris on the hot scale. Liam is nice looking, but Chris is THOR…. ’nuff said, I think. ;)

    Yummy choices, Karen!

    1. Karen Hawkins says:

      You can thank Ms. Julia London for suggesting Liam from the Hunger Games. While googling, we realized Chris was Liam’s brother and voila, FROS was BROS!

  29. Suzanne Enoch says:

    I like Chris — but only when he has a beard. Without it they BOTH look so very young, and I feel very old. *g*

    1. Kelly Proellocks says:

      Suzanne you are not old! You are in the prime of your life and they would be hard pressed to keep up with you.

    2. Karen Hawkins says:

      They do rock the scruff, don’t they?

      Sigh!

  30. TinaF says:

    Chris

  31. Karen Hawkins says:

    You guys have made me grin all day. I couldn’t get my internet to work until just now, so I could only post on fb today — I couldn’t get a comment box to open for either tgb or twitter on my phone, so all I could do was read and grin.

    I’m so glad you enjoyed the BROS of it all!

  32. Charlene says:

    Decisions, decisions. I can’t pick just one!

  33. Janae says:

    So funny. I was talking to a friend about Hunger Games this week. We’re talking about Liam, when I said to her, ‘You know, Thor’s his brother.’ She didn’t know, but we had 2 days worth of conversation about the Helmsworth brothers. The Helmsworth brothers have some incredible DNA. I think Chris has an edge because he’s Thor. I’m counting down the days until May 4th to see Thor back in action.

  34. Mary Preston says:

    I’ll take them both thank you!! Who can choose?
