Yikes! Wow. I still consider her the sexiest woman on the planet, and have since at least the middle of the second season of 'Buffy.'

Outside of the geekgasm factor, I don't understand how anyone could find her even the least bit attractive. Same goes for that annoying Abby bitch on NCIS. She's another one who seems to cause big dork boners.

They aren't my standards, Champ. I don't make the rules. I only go by what is put on my tv screen. By tv/movie standards, Alyson Hannigan is ugly-my opinion, of course. I can understand why geeks would be into her, but conventionally attractive she sure as shit is not. The fact that she was once on a show that nerds creamed their pants over doesn't magically make her attractive.

If someone said Hannigan was "cute", that would be fine, too, but hot or sexy? I beg to differ.

Hey, I never even saw her on Buffy, so there! And I don't even think she's a knockout like a lot of folks do, just very attractive. Obviously not everybody is going to be attracted to her, and I'd agree that for Hollywood she is pretty much average...but just like these things always go on here, I'm merely suggesting almost everybody (skinny geek or Brad Pitt doppelganger...but clearly not pudding of a sexual nature) would "hit it" in the real world.

Oh, I'd hit it in the real world too. She's not real world ugly. Just ugly by celeb standards, imo.

Hannigan=The only reason I watched this show since its debut after Buffy went off the air.

So what is she supposed to look like? A fake collagen-injected Hollywood doll? Why can't anyone appreciate what a real woman looks like anymore? I'd much rather have a woman with a great personality and just accept whatever 'imperfections' are on the surface.

I'm really shocked at the disdain for her. She is a very cute girl. I understand she's not top ten in the world, but I don't get people acting like she's a two-bagger.

I think she is a very talented actress however. I have heard she doesn't have much personality in real life, but she was one of the best parts of BTVS and for that I will always give whatever she is involved in a shot.

Exactly, and you were already a fan of her from Buffy. Hardly a point in your favor.

Fixed.

Also? She's smoking hot.

In your opinion.

Yeah, I don't think she's attractive either. I think the part that started everything was when someone said that she was hotter than Robin. Please.

She's sexy to me. Don't care what anyone else says. To each his own. There are celebs that a lot of people think are hot that I don't think much of.

Oh, and the woman calling Barney, Barnelle was hillarious.

Isn't almost everything people post here an opinion? Not everything needs to be qualified when it is so obvious. Shocker, though- another Sci-Fi geek loves Hannigan.

I personally never thought she was cute at all on Buffy. I think she's blossomed on HIMYM. Conversely, most of the other female leads on that show look worse today. Much, much worse. Not so hideous that I would run from them a la SexualPudding, but you get the picture.

I'll agree with you there. Alyson does look better than she used to and I'd say Robin looks worse, too.

So where exactly was Robin hiding her boobs in the wedding episode?

I normally find her really cute, but her hair made her look not so hot. Victoria, on the other hand, yes please-extra 15 pounds or otherwise. I've always liked that actress, going back to when she was on the final season of Huff.

What people besides myself think of her is not important to me so why is it important to people who love her so much, when others find her to be ordinary in comparison of movie star good looks?

Well, when you're acting like a condescending douche about it, I thought it merited some qualification.

Yes, I enjoy sci-fi. Yes, I watched Buffy. Does that make me a "geek"? Maybe. What the fuck does that have to do with anything? For the record, AH was pretty much always the nerdy girl on Buffy. Even when they made her a "hip lesbian", they never succeeded in making her hot. Only on HIMYM has she come into her own and become more attractive in my opinion.
