So I figured I would use this blog to post a few of my gungy thoughts, and a few stories, and perhaps even a few people might end up reading it.
I thought I would talk about my ideal gunge target first off... what really 'turns me on' ... so if you have a similar taste, then you might enjoy what I write a bit more.
Firstly a guy - a young guy, someone looking in their 20s. Someone fit, good looking obviously - but not just some 'muscle guy'. A good looking face is really important - someone clean cut. Maybe blue eyes with sandy blond or brown hair; but really any good looking - cute - guy would do. A guy who would hate to get gunged but would be a good sport about it, and look amazing with slime dumped all over them. An Abercrombie and Fitch or Hollister Model perhaps
To put it into perspective ... my 'go to' celeb gunge targets are a young Ben McKenzie (from the OC), or perhaps Matt Lanter (from 90210). Not surprising I guess! Matt has happily gotten a bit messy (in 'Disaster Movie'), but nothing too exciting. Ben escaped at the KCA years back - he was on stage, but never got messy

... as a consolation, BOTH guys have been dunked in a dunk tank.
So who are the guys specifically stick in my mind that have been gunged on TV? Well, a quick list off the top of my head ... all of them slimed 'against their will' (notice a theme? ... game show losers, by chance, or because someone else has done something):
- Josh Hutcherson at the KCA ... he gets totally trashed with green slime and his exasperated reaction is awesome.
- The four young guys from Big Time Rush on Figure it Out - all of them slimed multiple times across multiple episodes ... if only they could get rid of the boiler suits and 'helmets'.
- Ben Adams from A1, way back on Live and Kicking.
- A young Lee Ryan from Blue ... again, trashed on Live and Kicking.
- And to choose a 'regular guy' ... the young blond 'youth worker' on GYOB, who gets totally coated in the thick stuff, first from above, then dumped in it.
All these scenes of course have been around for a while, and are on youtube (practically male gunge classics!) ... if somehow you've missed them then definitely look em up.
Is your taste in 'target' similar? Are there any other amazing TV slime/gunge classics that deserve a mention?
