Why?


If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it? These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.

I've wanted this to be asked for so long, although I'm sure there is NOT an appropriate way to raise the question. However, people cannot deny that all 4 actors are very different, and that their performances vary. People on here, out of etiquette and fairness, want to treat the boys the same, and rightfully so. But having a favorite does not mean that any of the other boys are less worthy of praise.... or Tony awards. Perhaps if the question was asked "Which Billy is your favorite" instead of "The Best" would seem less uncomfortable for some. Also, there is no anonymity on a board like this, for fear of backlash. There is no right answer to which is "The Best" because that is simply an opinion based on personal preference. So there's no use in debating the matter. However, for those who do care, (as myself) there is a small anonymous poll I've attached below that should create some grumblings.



VOTE HERE WHICH BILLY IS YOUR FAVORITE

That anonymous poll isn't working right. I clicked out of curiosity and it said I voted successfully.

Trent is clearly leading, I wonder why that is?

This poll is led by Trent because is clearly organized by The City Hall of Wantagh, its mayor, and the whole jealous town....

The real silliness of this is that no one should even be considering the issue, let alone voting, unless thay have actually see ALL four (and all four after they have been able to settle into the role as well)!

This poll is not to be detrimental to the boys, they are all talented, but just want to find out who is your favorite, just curious to see who you prefer?

Well YOU may say they're not detimental, but even adult actors are sensitive to "favorite" discussions. How do you think the Billies will interpret it. They're just kids.
