i have a crush on vincent d’onofrio
Someone just emailed me with a “favorite actor” question. I’m a person who doesn’t have too many “favorites” mostly because I crave variety. But I do have to confess a hardcore crush on actor Vincent D’Onofrio.
Okay, so what if the guy is being nominated as a GQ “man of the year”? He’s not your typical GQ kind of guy. He’s been described as “a real character, not an actor pretending to be one.” I have a thing for quirky people and D’Onofrio is definitely quirky, not to mention brilliant and talented and tall and hunky and handsome. Oh, and he’s a Brooklyn boy, to boot.
So there you have it, I’ve confessed my crush. They say confession is good for the soul, so confess your own, c’mon, you want to, you know you do!

Vincent is a bit hairy for me…
I’ve always had a thing for Linda Fiorentino… who looks like she’d eat you alive just as soon as shake your hand. Hello nurse!
I love that “Want some candy little boy” look.

Even when he’s a giant cockroach?

Vincent is the main reason I watch Law & Order: Criminal Intent. Smart is sexy.
October 5th, 2003 at 9:40 am
I’d have to say that my favorite actor is Adrien Brody. I have a huge obsession with him. He’s my hero! He was amazing in The Pianist. I must buy that movie.

Private Pyle from Kubrick’s Full Metal Jacket, Molly? Oh, no….

Let’s see: Dita von Theese, Liv Tyler, Gillian Anderson, Katarina Witt…so many fantasies, so little time…

Alec Baldwin…for the last 18 years…Alec Baldwin.
I know, I know…..
An infuriating mixture of arrogant asshole and funny,sweet, passionate man.
I’m besotted with him…mad for him…Fat, thin…doesnt matter. He is the most beautiful man in the world. Even when he stupidly slicks back his gorgeous head of hair..even when he says stupid things…even tho he can be a bully.
Even tho its a cliche to even like the man…
He is my Demon Lover…..my punishment for everything bad I have ever done.
Cannot look at him without hurting a little..
And all this in spite of the fact I am a happily in love/engaged person with a boyfriend who has those nice Black Irish looks his own self.
But…there is no other Alec.
I wish it would go away, but, alas, it doesn’t.
I hate it.
…..Kinda.

“Vincent is the main reason I watch Law & Order: Criminal Intent. Smart is sexy.”
I agree!
“Even when he’s a giant cockroach?”
Um, ok … perhaps not.
Let’s see..
Taye Diggs, The kid who plays Lex on Smallville, James Marsters (”Spike” from Buffy) - but to go to dinner with -Eddie Izzard (If I could find a dress fabulous enough).

i think that he’s hotttt and he’s very lad back and cool and just delicious.
October 7th, 2004 at 10:50 pm
I think Vincent is an amazing actor not to mention incredibly beautiful I would love to touch his face
October 15th, 2004 at 12:11 pm
Mmmmm…I love Vincent….hairiness and all. He is just so sexy.
November 12th, 2004 at 7:25 am
I THINK VINCENT,DAVID BOREANAZ AND SPIKE ARE SO SEXY AND SMART
November 25th, 2004 at 9:51 pm
Vincent, absolutely, totally. I have to tape Law and Order because the first time I watch it I am too busy mooning to pay attention to the plot. My biggest fantasy is to nibble his neck. Oh, baby! Also Neal McDonough is pretty damn hot, has very kissable looking lips.
November 29th, 2004 at 3:44 am
I absolutely agree with the “Neal McDonough is pretty damn hot, has very kissable looking lips.” bit. Amen.
November 29th, 2004 at 4:31 pm
Back in September I got this OVER-WHElming need to see a new L&O CI episode for the sole purpose of eyeing Vincent D’Onofrio!!!
It was this very odd/awed crush-like sensation that I seldom give in to for television or movie actors. (A very reality prone friend labeled it ‘feeble’ for people to have TV crushes). I would have agreed in the past, but now I see it as harmless and fun to be “fan”.
Then…. I took a look at some of my family fotos and realized that V D’Onofrio resembles my dad when he was in his 30s - 40s!!!Not that I have an Electra complex - I think it was a tribute to my now deceased father that I would choose to hunker after a man who looked
*just like the guy, who married dear old mom!* edieb
December 29th, 2004 at 1:34 pm
i want to c vincent d onofrio before i die. i am totally crazy over him. i cant sleep or eat lately because of him.
February 23rd, 2005 at 6:15 pm
Vincent D’Onofrio has always been crush material for me.
Even before I really knew who he was, I’d catch him on “Homicide”,I mean he’s under a train and he’s not playing the leading man role and he’s not Johnny Depp, but I stopped in front of the screen like a deer in headlights and couldn’t turn away!
He is not like the pretty boys I usually date, although I think he’s pretty, he’s just so compelling!
Even in “Full Metal Jacket” I could still tell he was hot! Of coarse , I wouldn’t say it out loud at the time!
And then, after he played Abbie Hoffman, one of my personal hero’s, even though my brother says the Chicago 7 were one of the reasons for the breakdown of the New Deal Co-allition, I tell him ending the War at all costs was their main concern but I digress, once he played Abbie and I heard about how strenously he campaigned to remove Bush from office ,it was all over!
Smart , Sexy , Liberal Democrat, Handsome, Politically savvy and involved!
SIGH!!
What a MAN!!
February 27th, 2005 at 5:47 pm
Just love Vincent D’onofrio!!
March 14th, 2005 at 11:03 pm
Love Vincent D’Onofrio, of course. And what’s all this about hairy? I agree with tia, that he comes accross as very ‘lad’ back; and olga? I understand where you’re coming from, but your comment creeped me out. We all want to touch his face, but its common consensus that you just don’t say it out loud.
March 24th, 2005 at 3:19 pm
I totally love Vincent . He is a real man ! Just don’t tell my husband !
April 22nd, 2005 at 5:37 am
ohhh yeh, vincent is one hot fella. i evn thought he was hot as Pyle in FMJ, he was so crazy it was a turn on! lol. but yeh, sooooo hot in criminal intent, i cant wait til sunday to watch it
April 23rd, 2005 at 3:55 pm
Vinny for President.
I thought I was the only one in the world who had a crush on “Private Pyle” (blush) when i saw it on tv a few years ago. I must admit he’s scrubbed up well in recent years and looks so damn sexy in Criminal Intent.
He sounds like an all round good bloke and GOD I want to marry him …
April 23rd, 2005 at 10:00 pm
“”Vincent, absolutely, totally. I have to tape Law and Order because the first time I watch it I am too busy mooning to pay attention to the plot. My biggest fantasy is to nibble his neck. Oh, baby! Also Neal McDonough is pretty damn hot, has very kissable looking lips”"
That is so me. Haha. I tape it too because I have funny fantasies about being on CI working with vinny. He’s a charming guy. Genuinely quirky which I love and join in on. I’d love to work alongside him and be an actor. Smart but ont in your average way. I’ve been told I’m weird for liking a huge graying old man but curse those people…he’s charming and hr doesn’t need to look like Orlando Bloom to be hot!!
ps: VINNY IS LEFT HANDED LIKE ME!!!
May 6th, 2005 at 1:58 am
I also am a Vincent fan.. He’s so charasmatic in his Goren role. I feel a bit sorry for the other actors though - they rarely (if ever) have a central role, unlike the other Law and Order shows.
I’ve seen a few of his films; I just wish there were more!
May 9th, 2005 at 12:50 pm
Vince is a complete hunk - huge shoulders, sexy eyes and lips, GORGEOUS hands - wouldn’t you just love to have them caressing you? Even the five o’clock shadow just makes him look even more masculine. Yummy
May 10th, 2005 at 1:27 pm
vincent is just so hot i can not get over it !!!!!!!!my god the only reason i watch ci is bcos he is so stunning xxxxxxx
May 11th, 2005 at 7:16 pm
I LOVE VINCENT D’ONOFRIO, IF I COULD MARRY HIM, I WOULD! HE IS SOOOOOOOOO SMART AND ANY WOMAN WOULD BE LUCKY TO HAVE HIM. OH MY GOD HE IS FINE!
June 18th, 2005 at 6:25 am
Vincent D’Onofrio is everything a woman could ever wish for all in 1 package!!!!
June 18th, 2005 at 2:20 pm
oooh yeah vincent is great!!! i was so happy that i could meet him!! he is a real nice guy!! at the end of that meeting he gave me a hug and a kiss…woow…
July 3rd, 2005 at 2:40 pm
I’m waiting for vincent to call me…. then maybe my fantasy would turn into reality…
July 3rd, 2005 at 2:44 pm
then one has to wonder… is he at all like the character he plays in CI??
August 12th, 2005 at 4:49 am
Vincent D’Onofrio? I can’t even find the right words to describe what I feel for him. To say he’s amazing, fantastic, handsome, gorgeous - not enough and not even close to what I think about him. I love him and I mean it. His performance in L&O:Criminal Intent changed my life and its direction three years ago and I’ll never be sorry for it. If only I could have a chance to personally thank him for it…
August 16th, 2005 at 12:30 pm
i also love vincent. i thought their was something wrong with me, until i read your website. I have his picture up on my computer at work. we even had a cake for his birthday, june 30th. he’s is awesome. what can i say.
t.k.
August 16th, 2005 at 1:11 pm
ALSO, FOR ALL YOU TRUE FANS OUT THERE, YOU NEED TO RENT THE DVD , HAPPY ACCIDENT. VINCE WAS TOTALLY AWESOME IN IT. I WENT TO MY LOCAL LIBRARY AND THEY HAD THE FIRST YEAR DVDS FROM L & O. THERE ARE SIX DVD’S. THEY ARE THE BEST.
PLUS, HIS SHOE SIZE IS “13″.
T.K.
August 18th, 2005 at 11:22 am
MY FRIEND T.K LOVES YOU VICENT
August 18th, 2005 at 1:16 pm
LAW & ORDER CI MAKES SUNDAY NITE BEARABLE. ALL VINCE. HE SURE IS HOT,TALENTED, SMART & A BIT CRAZY! RIGHT T.K.???????????
August 20th, 2005 at 7:57 am
They say Vincent alienated people on the LOCI set for going on about George W’s re-election. Over here in England it is normal to think of GWB as a dangerous joke, so to know Vincent is anti him just adds to the attraction for me.
August 31st, 2005 at 5:23 am
Vincent rocks! You gotta see Whole Wide World.
The best looking guy ever is Elijah Wood. Oooh what a cutie….phwoar!!
September 13th, 2005 at 10:26 pm
I didn’t know how many people were out there that had the same feelings that I have for Vincent as well.
If he ever read these comments I wonder what he would feel like?
The reason I fell in love with Vincent is that he is tall and intelligent. His personality is what I look for in a person.
I would melt over a guy with an accent, but Vincent makes me melt just watching him on L&O CI.
I can’t believe I am so crazy for him. I haven’t even met him before. Just watching him in his shows intriges me. I can’t take my eyes off him.
What is wrong with me?
I wish I could spend just one day with him. To get to know him outside of his shows. I bet he is the most wonderful person…
October 2nd, 2005 at 8:49 pm
if anyone out there knows if vencent d’onofrio will still be on law & order [please let me know. thank you. angela cassidy.-angela0759@netzero.com 10-3-05/////
October 2nd, 2005 at 9:22 pm
I am in love with Vincent! He’s incredibly hot!!!!! I only watch LOCI because he’s on that show. I look forward to Sunday because of him!
October 2nd, 2005 at 9:54 pm
To answer your question, Angela Cassidy;
Yes, he will still be with us. I found this quote on a great website:
Starting this season(Season 5), Chris Noth and current “Criminal Intent” star Vincent D’Onofrio will split the show’s case load, with Noth coming on board as a series regular.
Starting in the show’s fifth season, Logan and D’Onofrio’s Det. Robert Goren will each do time as lead detective on the show’s Major Case Squad. Each actor will front 11 “Criminal Intent” episodes.
“The hardest job in show business is being a single lead on an hour drama series,” creator and executive producer Dick Wolf says. “Vincent has done an unbelievable job for the last four seasons, but after 3.5 years, the grueling pace finally took its toll. This is an ideal solution so that Vincent can continue to do the incredible work that has become the hallmark of the role. I’ve worked with Chris over the past 17 years, and bringing him on to reprise one of the most popular characters in the history of the brand, is a win-win situation.”
Cool huh?

October 6th, 2005 at 11:14 am
Back of girls, I’m marrying him! LOL.
I’ve loved Vincent for the longest time, I was thrilled when he started L&O: CI. He’s not your typical “hot” guy, but I can’t help being mesmerized when he’s on my screen.
I want to do bad things to him. Muahahah.
October 10th, 2005 at 11:02 am
I, too, dig Vincent D’Onofrio. Ever since I dreamt that he and I were married one night, I spend an inordinate amount of time concoting some scenario by which this could possibly ever happen. He isn’t classically handsome- but God, he has such a presence about him.
October 11th, 2005 at 11:31 am
I know woman who aren’t in love with VD’O, but I don’t trust them! What’s not to love? The guy has talent out the ying yang, he’s smart, he’s handsome, and he’s got a way about him that makes you believe he’s attainable (although I’m sure he’s not).
October 12th, 2005 at 11:54 am
You know what? I hadn’t heard anything about his aversion to W, but that just really puts the icing on the cake for me; as if this cake needed icing. I love love hate Vincent and hate hate hate GWB. It is totally odd to be my age and have such an obsession going on, but I can’t help myself. Every night when I fall asleep, I hope I dream about him again… the one time I did is probably the closest I’ll ever get to him, and I woke up feeling happy happy the next morning!
October 12th, 2005 at 11:55 am
Right, that would be love love love Vincent. Argh. I went back to edit something and put it on the wrong line!
October 13th, 2005 at 2:32 pm
Just recently developed a major league crush on the man….he is one hot number; he’s now #1 on my “laminated list” (Friends fans will get that). Been junking out on L&O:CI repeats, and seeking out his movies. Caught “Mystic Pizza” the other night and was stoked that he was romancing a character w/ the same nickname as mine. Dreamt about him that night, woke up in major league lust. I could climb him like a cat climbs a scratching pole!! Vince, if you are ever in Washington State, look me up!
October 15th, 2005 at 7:30 pm
Its hard to put in words about Vincent P. D’Onofrio, he is one of the most versitile actors out there. Its not so much as his looks but his actions. I’ve seen about 90% of his films and all of them he does such a good job. Even if it is a small role, he puts 110% into it, you can tell. If not he wouldnt be so tried and only doing 11 L&O CI and he is also in The Breakup w/ Vince Vaughn.N
October 15th, 2005 at 8:49 pm
The first time VDO made me swoon was on Mystic Pizza and I haven’t been the same since. Also loved him as ‘Thor’ on Adventures in Babysitting. He’s just awesome to watch…esp. on LOCI. I wish he’d get in my face that way… There’s just something about him that makes me melt…from his boyish good looks to his quirky mannerisms he just leaves me breathless. His height does it for me too…i’m only 4′9″ so i could just jump into his arms and he could literally sweep me off my feet! lol Lotsa Love For VDO Always - *sallie*
October 17th, 2005 at 10:07 am
My crush is also fairly recent, even though I’ve been watching that show since it started. There was a mini marathon on Bravo last night, and during one episode, he was dancing with a female “hostess”. OMG, I nearly died. He is a lovely dancer. I wanted it to be me dancing with him, lol! Uh, so long as I understand this is never going to happen, I’m being delusional, right???
October 17th, 2005 at 10:09 am
I meant to say, too, that I envy Kathryn Erbe (possibly mis-spelling her name). I watch them sitting together in the courtroom or in Carver’s office sometimes, and their shoulders will be touching, and I wonder how she can even concentrate on her lines!
October 17th, 2005 at 3:20 pm
Mrs. D: OMG! I saw that mini Bravo marathon too and know EXACTLY what you meant about that slow dancing scene. Melt City! My hubby was gone this weekend and I rented about 5 of Vincent’s movies, plus L&O: CI episodes on USA and Bravo. He’s just so incredibly hot; and quirky. Hey, did you ever catch that 2 parter CI w/ Olivia D’Abo and the interrogation? That was so intense how her character got into Goren’s head.
October 17th, 2005 at 6:28 pm
JoJo, yes, I’ve seen those episodes with Olivia D’Abo. Very intense. And the more intense he gets, the hotter he gets. Burn baby burn!
October 18th, 2005 at 11:21 am
what a lovely title for a website. I adore Vincent, he’s not only drop dead gorgeous, he’s smart and awesomely talented too. A devastating combination!
October 19th, 2005 at 11:14 am
I’m just glad to see that I’m not the only member of the “Vincent D’Onofrio Estrogen Brigade”!!
October 19th, 2005 at 9:43 pm
This is great! It’s not as though I’m surprised that I’m not the only one eagerly lining up to be the next ex Mrs. D’Onofrio but it makes me feel a little more normal
Here’s something both creepy & cute: when I was 8 I had a huge crush on Thor from Adventures in Babysitting only to find out this year that was Vincent. Oi! I’m such a perv-dork! Like some of you girls I too will spend downtime (in lines, in traffic, when talking to someone dull) concocting elaborate fantasy schemes to get him in my bed. Ladies, we need professional help… or Vincent needs to go on a booty call world tour!
October 20th, 2005 at 1:54 am
I call Vincent “the thinking woman’s sex symbol.” (Thinking with the brain, that is.) And now Logan is back. (He’s also “the thinking woman’s sex symbol,” though perhaps the brain is less involved than other…hmm….regions in this case.) I’m in cop fantasy heaven!
Kath
October 21st, 2005 at 12:21 pm
The only help we ladies need is a ‘personal’ visit from Mr D’Onofrio. If he gets any hotter, I may just self-combust
October 21st, 2005 at 6:43 pm
Okiedokie, who watched the 8 pm show on USA network? It was one I hadn’t seen before… Vincent was so kind and gentle to that young boy. Be still my heart. And it was one of the rare episodes when we got to see him in something other than a suit (although he still had a jacket on, the tie at least was off) OMG, how I do love me some Detective Goren! Almost time for the new episode on NBC, but I don’t know if this is Goren and Eames week or “those other people”.
October 22nd, 2005 at 4:14 am
I’m also a fan of D’Onofrio, mostly because he’s such an excellent actor. These days, we mostly see a famous actor “as” a role. It’s always Brad Pitt we see, never the character. But Vincent D’Onofrio is on a par with the best of our actors - like Brando, he becomes the part.
I’ve been aware of D’Onofrio since his “Adventures in Babysitting” role. In fact, he is responsible for my earning a nice chunk o’change from friends and acquaintances, especially since he got the LOCI role. I bet them that he was in that movie and, 99.99% of the time, I win because my friends never realized it.
In this world of plastic, perfect people, it’s very refreshing to have someone this talented and dedicated to his craft.
October 24th, 2005 at 10:43 am
I just saw “Mr. Wonderful” over the weekend and loved Vincent’s sweet character, “Dominic”. I wish he’d had more screen time. Was that really him singing?
October 27th, 2005 at 3:25 am
Can anyone say “Chris Noth”? I know, that’s probably a sore subject, but I have followed this guy since his L&O debut and he knocks the socks off D’Onofrio, who completely OVERACTS his character on CI. Watch the early episodes of L&O to see how brilliantly subtle Noth is at creating a character without weird facial expressions, psycho-babble, and neurotic rampages. In fact, I didn’t think Noth was even good looking when I first saw him on L&O in 1990. He reminded me of the big blue Muppet eagle with his unibrow and big nose. However, over the course of time, it was the character of Logan that he crafted that I fell in love with, then saw the charm and beauty in Noth himself.
October 27th, 2005 at 12:51 pm
Yes, well, while Detective Logan/Chris Noth has his good points, this is, after all, a site devoted to our man, Vincent D’Onofrio.
October 28th, 2005 at 9:42 pm
I know. Sorry. I was just reading an online article about the two actors sharing the load on L&O CI and clicked on a link about people who had crushes on D’Onofrio. I had the two actors in my head when I wrote this. I think D’Onofrio should be on the big screen. He is just so LARGE, and I don’t mean physically (although I realize he is a large man). He just takes up all of the oxygen in his scenes, very much like Andre Braugher did as Frank Pembleton on Homicide: Life on the Street.
October 29th, 2005 at 10:05 am
To each their own. Chris Noth is a fine actor, but I don’t feel any physical attraction towards him. As opposed to Vincent, who had me fantasizing big time last night, when he was getting closer and closer to Nellie, as though he were about to kiss her. (My fantasy didn’t extend to the scene’s climax, when she was actually arrested).
November 7th, 2005 at 12:25 pm
I confess, I used to like Chris Noth a lot during his prior tenure as Det. Logan in the early 90’s….but Vincent really does it for me now! Sigh. He can leave his size 13 shoes under my bed ANY TIME!
November 11th, 2005 at 7:51 pm
Ladies, are we swooning over Vincent or over Det.Goran? D’Onofrio may not be anything like Goran in real life. After all, several have commented on how great an actor he is!! Having said that, I’ve got it just as bad as most of you. His height and dark handsome looks are the 2 things that have always captured my eye with any man. If he has not married again, he’s probably wooing some of the most beautiful ladies in New York. Or, is he married again - anyone know? Oh well, I can have my fantasies, too, and lose sleep thinking about him. And, to the one who asked if we wouldn’t like to have his large hands caressing us, I can’t even go there. I go into meltdown.
November 14th, 2005 at 12:18 pm
Well I for one have a crush on Vincent D’Onofrio, the person. While I love Bobby Goren, and other roles where he’s played a sweet guy, all the interviews I’ve seen and/or read, he comes across as a good guy, and honest too. Wish I was in NYC!!!
November 14th, 2005 at 12:24 pm
Kitty should really find a website called ‘I have a crush on Chris Noth’. I certainly don’t, which is why I’m here for Vincent! As for D’Onofrio or Goren, probably both, since they are one and the same person. OK, he’s acting in the role, but having read/heard/seen Vincent as himself on various things, he’s still ‘my man’
November 14th, 2005 at 3:57 pm
I would say my crush is on Vincent D., not Bobby Goren. True, Vincent may be nothing at all like Bobby, but there is just something about him that gets me feeling warm and tingly. It isn’t just his looks, or his acting ability. It is more the very essence of him- he commands my attention. He’s just such……. a man! I don’t know him, and if I did, it would probably take all the fun out of my fantasies, because I am sure he has the same types of imperfections that have disillusioned all of us at one time or another.
November 15th, 2005 at 3:05 pm
I agree w/ Mrs. D. The whole point of us having the fantasies about him is to imagine the perfect man in Vincent. But he’s as human as everyone else, and has his flaws as well. I envy the women he dates, though!
November 19th, 2005 at 7:40 am
I’ve never had a crush on an actor before Vincent. But I’m surprised none of you mentioned the movie “Whole Wide World”. I swear Vincent and co-star Rene Zellwegger (sp?) have the most perfect on screen kiss ever filmed! Whenever I watch it, ahem, well let’s just say he can park his slippers under my bed anytime! He’s so hot I barely noticed Rene’s stellar performance until I saw the DVD the 4th time. I never saw the Homicide Episode, but if they ever put it back in reruns I’ll watch the entire series just to see it, I believe Vincent portrays a man caught under a train and is dying. I think the thing about Vincent is that he doesn’t look blandly handsome, his face isn’t Ken doll perfect, and he plays like a man who needs a woman, yet is unpredictable and maybe(?) a little dangerous. Women respond to a masculine edginess, God knows I respond to Vincent.
November 19th, 2005 at 2:05 pm
I decided that my daydreaming, fantasies, and catching the two reruns each night (8 and 11 EST) were becoming unhealthy for me, so I went cold turkey for for 1 1/2 weeks. Then, I thought one recent night, I’d watch just one show. Hooked again!!
Who saw Fri 11/18 show in which a recently widowed, now very wealthy woman was hosting a charity benefit and Goran asked if she were a dancer because she appeared to be so light on her feet? After leaving the room, he did a little jig for Eams(sp?)? I believe D’Onofrio brings a large part of himself into the role, and I’m fascinated by him as a person, rather than the role while believing he is a talented actor. I would love to spend a day with him, as many of you. Not for sex, but to just interact and observe the man. I like it that he is 46 yrs of age and has experiences and knowledge that come from being older. Unlike the “pretty boys,” he has nothing he has to prove. I have a feeling that what you see is what you get. I’m old enough to know better than to daydream such an unattainable chance. But, he moves me.
November 22nd, 2005 at 3:25 pm
There’s nothing unhealthy about fantasizing about someone like Vincent, no matter how old you are. He’s VERY magnetic. I am just mesmerized by him. I, too, would love to spend a day with him, but would hope that it’d lead to sex! >:)
November 23rd, 2005 at 11:51 pm
JoJo, it becomes unhealthy FOR ME when I lose sleep that I need the next day and neglect my real life responsibilities in order to watch 2 reruns each night. I’m up very late tonight because I’m finishing an article for a magazine. My idea of a fantastic day with him would be getting away to a secluded spot - a beach, on a yacht, etc. and ending up for the dinner meal in a candle lit, very Old World romantic restaurant with the most delicious food and wine. If he wanted to kiss me, there would be no objection from me………………

lolol - i am laughing out loud. not only because i’m pleasantly surprised to find a site FULL of women who feel the same way i do about this man, but also from some of the things i’ve read here!!
i have NEVER been a swooner. in fact, i never know what to say when someone asks who i think is sexy b/c i know it’s about more than surface stuff. so i come up with some empty stock answer.
UNTIL. i discovered vd’o. two nights ago he crept into my bed…uh, i mean my head. i’m kicking myself for not writing down the dream he was in b/c now i’ve FORGOTTEN it!!! TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE!!! and i just know it would’ve been perfect material to spend many minutes musing over and ‘reliving’. i must definitely use an alias with this b/c i can’t believe i’m writing these things!
my two cents about “why” he does this to us. first, i like the idea someone wrote about seeming like he needs a woman yet is unpredictable. oh man, just writing that with his face in mind….whoooo….okay, back to reality. i think the other thing is (okay, this must be more bobby goren than vd’o) but in the show he’s so psychologically astute - he solves the cases by getting to know the perps. how sexy is that?? telling someone about who they are and what makes them tick. can you imagine him looking you in the eye and telling you about yourself - making you feel all exposed, and then to make you feel like he needs you, with all that strength and gentleness?!!!?!
okay, i don’t even know what i’m saying anymore. thanks for listing (sheepish grin). oh, one more thing. i too have spent too many late nights and watched too many reruns just to ‘be with him’…..sigh…..
November 24th, 2005 at 11:49 am
Bebe, I saw that episode with him dancing for Eames just the other night. I love it when they show us a less serious side of him.
November 24th, 2005 at 10:23 pm
Does anyone wonder if Vincent has ever stumbled unto this blog? Don’t we all google our own name once in a while? Maybe he does, too! That’s how I discovered this place. Hey Vincent, if you’re lurking, I’m free tomorrow night… LOL!
November 25th, 2005 at 11:46 am
I Dream of Vincent, you can be certain that Bebe isn’t my real name. Oh, by the way, Vinnie knows it and my number and just called and said he’d be here about eight tonight. Sorry! I’m in a panic giving the house a thorough cleaning. Think I’ll throw a steak on the grill, bake a large spud,toss a salad and chill a bottle of red wine. Yep, I’m going to really enjoy that while he’s in my den on the screen from 8-9. LOL This is all in fun, isn’t it?
November 26th, 2005 at 8:51 pm
i am HURT. i can’t believe he was with you at 8:00 …. and then with me at 11:00!!? no wonder he wasn’t hungry! i spose after that he rushed back home to be with MRS. D’onofrio…..sheesh!!
November 28th, 2005 at 10:03 am
Hello ladies! My very considerate and patient hubby gave me Seasons 1 & 3 of “CI” for my b-day yesterday, so I can further indulge my VDO fantasy. Wasn’t that nice? I agree w/ “I dream” in that I love when they show a less serious side of Bobby. There’s one episode, can’t remember which offhand, where he’s standing next to a witness and imitating every hand gesture and body posture the guy is doing. It’s a hoot. But when they show him dance, that’s my fave. My mom cannot stand him; she says he “irritates” her. But my mother in law (in her 70’s) and my 68 y/o cousin think he’s hot too.
November 28th, 2005 at 10:53 pm
Totally nuts, Of course he wasn’t hungry again at 11:00. He’s a very big man and we shared a lot of food,wine, and dessert. So, no wonder he didn’t return at 11:00. He was with you???????? Wait till I see him again. I’ll try to be angry with him, but I’m afraid those dark eyes and smile will win me over. Let’s ask Mrs. D’Onofrio if he got home that night. Men! Can’t live with them, can’t live without them.
November 29th, 2005 at 8:31 am
Well, he spent my b-day with me, so…. there’s enough of him to go around.
December 2nd, 2005 at 11:06 am
Some men I could live without, but certainly not my Vincent! I love it when he dances too. As a matter of fact, one of my favorite dreams about him is when we danced to the song, “Save the Last Dance for Me”. I had that one the night after I watched “Steal This Movie”. I think what I liked best about that was seeing him with Janeane Garofalo- if I am meant to believe someone like him would end up with someone that looks like her, I can just as easily believe he could end up with someone like me. Right? RIGHT??? LOL
December 2nd, 2005 at 2:34 pm
Vincent is special. He is smart and handsome and I am really infatuated with him as of late. He is so talented as an actor. What a handsome guy. The things I could do to him…..damn
December 2nd, 2005 at 7:25 pm
Vincent is 47 and I’m 19 but, do I care?
NO!!!!!!!! HE’s HOTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
December 3rd, 2005 at 1:59 pm
I found Bobby Goren’s supposed blog on another website. No idea who actually writes it, but it’s pretty funny. Check it out…
http://detectivebobbygoren.blogspot.com/
December 5th, 2005 at 7:10 pm
I love the Goren character, so smart!
Is Vincent married?
I can’t find any information on the internet on his marital status.
I heard he was a homosexual? Say it ain’t so.
December 7th, 2005 at 1:27 pm
It ain’t so, maybe someone just watched Velocity of Gary, put 2 and 2 together and made 7. Vincent is divorced, but is of course all MINE!
December 8th, 2005 at 1:43 pm
Nononono, he’s not gay, thank God for all of us! He is 100% heterosexual, although I am sad to say I can’t vouch for that from personal experience, lololol!
December 8th, 2005 at 3:30 pm
IDOVincent, how right you are. J. Garofalo will make any other woman, in a movie or real life, look like an elite fashion model. I saw her a few months back on Hannity & Colmes (sp?) talkshow and I believe she works at making herself homely. Maybe, she has a great personality? I wish the producer or whoever makes the decision would let Goran grow his hair longer. It’s obviously curly, and I don’t care for the very short cut he’s wearing now. He needs some hair curling on his neckline and forehead. Any of you agree? If you watch the BBC series, Inspector Lynley, starring Nathaniel Parker, then you’ve noticed he’s sporting a longer hairstyle, and it makes him even more drop-dead gorgeous. Also, I agree with the one who wrote that there is no chemistry between Logan and his female partner. I don’t know if this is intended, and as the series continues, the ease, trust, and respect will happen between them as with Goran and Eames, but, if it doesn’t, I’m not interested in their shows and will stop watching them.
December 11th, 2005 at 6:21 pm
I’m not a liberal democrat but, I still loves me some Vincent!
I hope that he didn’t alienate people for voting for Bush.
We need to unite not divide, and we can start by me and Vincent.
December 11th, 2005 at 6:25 pm
Love to ya all.
December 12th, 2005 at 7:49 pm
ok…just a minute…whew - ok. just getting my bearings here after imagining my, uh our, boy with longer hair. curling around the edges. with that open, trusting boyish face. ooooohhhhhhhhh mmmyyyyyyyyy.
although, at the risk of being kicked out of the ‘club’ - i did rent full metal jacket last week just to see him in another role. uhhhh, maybe this is why he’s considered such a good character actor but that role (not HIM, mind you) did nothing for me. sorry to say. any good roles i should watch for him in?
oh, and if he alienated anyone by being anti-bush, all the better. that only strengthens my admiration for the man. beauty AND brains!!!
btw, i spent SIX hours with him yesterday! that beats even my personal record! at first he was telling some stories i’d already heard which was alright by me. but then toward the end of the evening he started to repeat them AGAIN so i had to set a limit and go to sleep. tonight i’ll have to incorporate some of those long, wispy curls into my dreams………..
December 13th, 2005 at 8:06 pm
I agree, VDO’s disdain for Dumbya only makes me love him more… as if I needed any help there. I watched the shows on Bravo the other night; I love seeing him out of his suit. In one of the episodes, he had on a dark green T-shirt and jeans and looked good enough to eat. Repeat after me. Oh. My. God. I love that man!!!!!!!
December 13th, 2005 at 10:02 pm
“dumbya” - lol.
i don’t remember the green t-shirt but i do remember a moment of him dancing in some studio. uhmm-hmmmmmm.
December 14th, 2005 at 8:49 am
I am a 68 year old women who is madly in love with Vincent. I too am attracted to him because of his quirkiness. ( not to even talk about how gorgeous he is) Am I being foolish for my age? Let me know if their other senior citizens that love him too.
December 14th, 2005 at 1:48 pm
If Vincent does it for you honey, then hallelujah, you’re still breathing and still ALIVE! Enjoy!!!
December 14th, 2005 at 7:38 pm
Vincent’s Gal, I cracked up at your response to Old Lady. Right on!!! Just because there is snow on the roof doesn’t mean there’s no fire in the hearth………And, Totally Nuts, I understand that you agree with me about the curls on the neckline and forehead. Mama Mia!! Let’s get a petition started. I enjoy all of you. I feel as if I am talking to a group of girlfriends, but, I’m warning you. Once Vinnie enters the room, the claws will come out. So, get out of my way. LOL
December 14th, 2005 at 11:16 pm
hahaha — put your claws away bebe. i’m no threat, believe me. my m.o. once i see an attractive man is to run the other way. guess that’s why i’m still single at the age of 44, sigh.
i’m cracking up at the idea of the producer of law & order receiving a petition in the mail requesting that vd’o grow his hair longer. tooo much, i love it!! oh, and ‘old lady’ - you go GIRL!!! i hold you as my personal role model!!
December 15th, 2005 at 6:24 am
My philosophy is when you stop looking you might as well be dead and Vincent gives us a lot to look out! Ohhh those eyes, that body, that soft voice!!!
December 15th, 2005 at 3:44 pm
you’re not kiddin’ sister. that soft soft voice is the sexiest thing of all…i’m m

December 15th, 2005 at 4:23 pm
I also agree that this is like talking with girlfriends (and with the part that if he walked in, all bets would be off, lol!!!) I have to tell you all, I’m in a book group and we decided to do a white elephant type gift exchange this year. A friend of mine made me an anatomically correct VDO paper doll set using her computer. It is the best “white elephant” gift ever!!!!
December 16th, 2005 at 7:42 am
The best gift of all would be having Vincent under the Christmas tree.
December 20th, 2005 at 8:18 pm
Old Lady, if you’re okay with that moniker, I’ll continue to use it but do have to tell you I’m not comfortable calling another woman an “old lady.” It sounds disrespectful to me. And, you’re correct. The best gift would be finding Vincent under MY Christmas tree!! TNuts, I just found another site with several photos, and there was one of D’O in a publicity shot, a little younger, less gray in the hair, but curls and more curls on the forehead, around the ears, lying on his shirt collar…….I tried to print it, but I couldn’t. I once saw Robert Ullrich (sp?) in a show in which he played a man who had gone into the priesthood, but saw a female, one day, who messed his mind up big time. I remember he prayed and told God that he thought if he gave himself to the priesthood that those kind of feelings would go away. I am in agony that such a man exists and I have absolutely no chance of his ever being mine. And, it’s not all about sex. It’s about heart and soul, and dreams together and futures with only each other. And, waking up with wedding bands on our fingers and those smouldering dark eyes looking into my blue ones. I’m down tonight, in case you can’t tell.
December 21st, 2005 at 9:01 am
I really don’t mind being called “old lady” even though I certainly don’t feel old. If it makes you uncomfortabe call me honey,if that’s not uncomfortable for you. I have a habit of calling everyone honey, sweetheart, etc. I would love to have the chance to call Vincent any of those names in person. Thank God for dreams.
December 25th, 2005 at 12:20 am
I see I’m not the only one that feels this way about Vincent D’Onofrio. It’s 2:17 a.m and I just caught 2 LOCI reruns. And now I can sleep- it’s on again tomorrow…
December 25th, 2005 at 12:22 am
Oh, by the way, I hear that he’s 53 not 46.
December 26th, 2005 at 2:38 am
Forget all of you! I am part Portuguese and Italian,Hot Blooded,and Vincent is all mine! He’s Italian,strong,sensual,a ONE WOMAN MAN,and WE WILL BE TOGETHER SOON! MY BABY ALREADY KNOWS THIS!
December 26th, 2005 at 2:00 pm
Caryn, All the bios give his age as 46. I come to this site a couple of times a week to see what my “girlfriends” are writing, but, Flo, you need to lighten up. If you wrote all those capital letters tongue-in-cheek, put LOL after it, as most of us do. If you didn’t, then, all I can say is he’s no more yours than he belongs to any of us. Lighten up! TV land brings him into our homes and we admire his talent, feast on his physical attraction, and enter the world of Det Goran and Eames for an hour to be
entertained. As for your being Portuguese and Italian, good. That makes for an attractive and interesting combination, but not an exclusive one. I’m half Irish and half Cherokee Indian. We Irish are known for our perseverance and my Indian ancestors have been known to scalp a head or two. You have some competition out here, so don’t be too brazen. Come on, TN, IDOV, Old Lady “Honey,” Mrs. D, Jodi, and others, we need to circle the wagon.
December 26th, 2005 at 4:01 pm
right on sister! wrote a reply earlier but hit refresh and it disappeared…
i think what ‘flo’ doesn’t understand is that vd’o has unfortunately already shown us that he’s not ready to settle down yet. granted, from time to time there is jealousy or hurt feelings on the board, but in time he seems to know how to soothe all of us. like, last night’s episode when he….OOPS! i digress!!
PLus, i don’t believe v’do would be interested in being owned by possessiveness - he would find that too base. he makes his own choices which adds to his sexiness. ANd, while my irish/german heritage may not be as steamy as flo’s or as commanding as bebe’s, it does offer a sort of deep internal conflict in my psyche that seems intriguing to him, you know, him being all psychologically minded and all…so let’s not get too full of ourselves here….
December 27th, 2005 at 7:00 am
I’m English/French so what. It’s not the nationality that Vincent would be interested in anyway. We have to remember that he is a star and it is terrific fun to dream about him, but in reality we all know there isn’t a chance for any of us unless a miracle occurs. However let’s keep the comments coming. It’s so much fun having others to chat with about our dream boy. OH THOSE EYES!!! OH THAT BODY!!! OH THAT VOICE!!! OH THAT CURLY, GRAYING HAIR!!! OH THAT HAIRY CHEST!!!
December 27th, 2005 at 7:36 am
heee heee heee old lady! i believe you captured it!
too bad we can’t email pictures to this site. i’ve got a killer one of a close up of his face - dark, smoldering, intense. shiiiiverrr…..
December 27th, 2005 at 12:40 pm
Can we get this straight once and for all please. Vincent’s date of birth is 30th June 1959, which means he’s 46 - and just right for me
December 27th, 2005 at 7:05 pm
Tnuts, Which part of my heritage do you consider to be “commanding?” I’m guessing it’s the Cherokee part. I have been known to go on a warpath of my own making. Ha! And, I agree with you concerning your German heritage. I’ve been fortunate to have a married German couple as neighbors for the past five years. What was thought might be unfriendliness on their part became clear, in time, that they keep thoughts, opinions, problems, etc. close to their chest, and only have opened up enough to allow us to have a genuine friendship in the past 2 yrs or so. I suspect D’O would find it quite interesting to share a meal and a quite evening in front of a roaring fireplace discovering what makes you “tick.”
And, Honey (OL), it’s nice to know that you understand the line here between reality and fantasy, as do I, and that we are having just a spot of fun. Yea, I like those dark eyes, and height, and curly hair and that soft voice, too. In fact, I think his voice is the most mesmerizing feature for me. What say you?
Happy New Year, All…………..
December 27th, 2005 at 9:16 pm
to” Bebe and Totally nuts”,I don’t give a “HOOT”, that you are half Irish and C. Indian! All of you are ‘LIVING IN A FANTASY WORLD” IF YOU THINK THAT VINCENT IS INTERESTED IN ANY OF YOU! THE 2 OF YOU SAY THAT “I NEED TO GET A GRIP ON REALITY” ABOUT HIM.WHAT ABOUT YOU 2? I’VE READ A LOT OF YOUR REPLYS ABOUT MY VINCENT,AND BOTH OF YOU ARE LIVING IN A DREAM WORLD,OR ELSE YOU WOULDN’T BE ON THIS SITE.SO”GET A GRIP’,HONEYS!
December 27th, 2005 at 9:34 pm
THIS “REPLY’ IS ALSO TO “OLD lADY”,I KNOW A LOT OF ITALIAN AND PORTUGUESE PEOPLE, AND THE MEN LIKE THEIR OWN KIND.I GUESS I HIT A LOT OF NERVES REPLYING TO THIS WEBSITE,SO WHAT? I TELL IT LIKE IT IS! VINCENT BABY IS”MEU AMOR”
December 27th, 2005 at 11:02 pm
uhhh….you’re right flo. i’m totally dreaming - i’m the first to admit that if vincent walked through my door, i wouldn’t know what to do!!! but, we’re just having a little fun here….so either join in, or better yet, if vinny is your lover, why not spend some time with him???!
December 28th, 2005 at 3:00 am
to “totally Nuts” Being SARCASTIC,AREN’T WE? You sure answered my reply right away. Couldn’t wait to type up MORE OF YOUR WISHFUL,PATHETIC,Thoughts! I just might spend some time with my Babe Vincent. HA!HA!HA!..” I KNOW THAT I WOULDN’T EVER MEET VINCENT, MADE IT ALL UP!! I JUST WENT ON THIS SITE,FOR KICKS,TO READ ALL OF THE ‘I LOOOOOOVE VINCENT NOTES” FROM HIS HARD UP FANS,WHO HAVE NOTHING ELSE BETTER TO DO,BUT TO BELIEVE AND FANTISIZE WHAT OTHER PEOPLE TYPE IN THIS SITE.LOOK AT ALL THE JEALOUS,ANGRY REPLYS I’VE RECEIVED! GOT TO GO,MEETING ‘MY LOVER VINNY’ FOR A LATE NIGHT SNACK! ‘BYE FOR NOW.
December 28th, 2005 at 3:45 pm
Ladies, ladies! Chill out! There’s enuf of Vincent to go around - in our fantasies he’s our one and only. That’s what makes it so much fun!
December 28th, 2005 at 9:08 pm
Okay, JoJo, I’ll chill out once I have put this little mean-spirited snipe in her place. The rest of us were having kind conversations, discussing Vinvent’s physical attraction, talent, charisma between his character Goran and Eames, and, occasionally, throwing in an “I wish ………..”
Probably, most of us are beyond the age of spending our days hidden behind
publicity magazines and daydreaming whatwe know is fantasy. He is a handsome man. He is talented. He is charismatic. Facts!!! Flo, dearie, those are the facts that cause us to be fans….no pining away daily because he’s not in our bed every night. I beg your little bilious mind, (I do hope you have a dictionary handy!), but most, if not all, who have come on to this site at one time or another, do have real lives, often very stressful ones, and an hour of mindlessly looking at D’O and Eames, and, yes, getting into the plot lines so cleverly written that we release some of the day’s tension is pleasing. May I ask just why you were on this site if,as you say, we are so pathetically hard up with nothing else to do? No date tonight, dearie? And, TNuts, Stop saying you would be the first to run another way if a situation presented itself. I have known stunning women who are as cold as ice and handsome men who are totally clueless and arrogant. That which is really valued by others who count in our lives is an inner beauty, softness and true love that last long after physical beauty has faded. You may be a stunning beauty. I don’t know, but you, I, nor any of the other ladies on this site deserve the socially inept rantings of “Miss Flo.”
Our emotional well-being, as grown ladies, is enhanced each time we stop to share ourselves, our hopes, dreams, to attentive ears. It’s our bridge to one another over which we pass again and again to help our sisters, not to tear them down.
Flo, your tawdry, crude, and blundering attempt to belittle each of us has revealed far more about you than about any of us. We’re not jealous. V’D is not ours. We’re not angry. You can dream about him, too. And, lastly, go for that late night snack
with Vinnie, “meu amor.” If you’re the type he thinks he is interested in,
he needs no enemies. He would soon discover that someone had left the hen house door open and the fox had gotten in. I’m fortunate I don’t feel toward my “sisters” as you do. You must be one, bitter person!
December 28th, 2005 at 9:23 pm
Flo, I forgot to point one thing out. You misspelled “fantasize.” I’m a half-Irish, half C. Indian high school English teacher!!!!!!!!!!
December 28th, 2005 at 11:25 pm
To Bebe,The All Knowing,Insipid,half irish-half c indian “teach”, I see that you have “corrected”my spelling of fantasize,and I see the rest of your Babbling and Preaching Diatribe! Do I get an F for my incorrect spelling,or what?HA!HA!Ha!,Call me a “snipe”?Well you are the most BILIOUS (IRRITABLE,I know what it means,Surprised?),TWIT….. I have ever come across on the Internet!I am also MARRIED,HAPPILY,SWEETHEART,so why don’t you stop your BRAGGING OR COMPLAINING? It’s Obvious that YOU need a Date,or else You wouldn’t constantly BE on this website. Gots to go now.To”all your sisters on this site:”Happy Daydreaming about Vincent”
December 28th, 2005 at 11:34 pm
Heavens to Betsy, let’s remember this site is just for fun, and let’s go ahead and have fun with it! I doubt any of us are ever going to have the incredible pleasure of an evening in Vincent’s company anyway, so there’s no point in being competitive or mean. Now, earlier tonight, I caught an interesting little piece of trivia. You know how it is almost always Eames that drives that SUV (who do you suppose that belongs to, anyway? It’s an awfully nice car for the NYPD to let detectives drive) Tonight, Goren drove it out to New Jersey. And last night was another episode where we got to see him out of his suit. I always enjoy that!
December 29th, 2005 at 12:22 am
man, this has taken a definite turn for the bizarre.
first, i must say to bebe that i love your writing style! you are clever and descriptive in a flowing way - i’ve always admired that. seems you’ve found yourself in the right field (teaching english). and thanks for nudging me out of my self-effacement - although a likeable quality, i use it to my own detriment. only someone capable of truly connecting would be brave enough to point that out…
secondly, my experience of flo is similar to my experience of my brother’s wife. much of it doesn’t make sense and the degree of venom/defensiveness precludes any hope for reasoning or resolution. continuing to engage will only reinforce the behavior so i am officially signing off from responding to any of flo’s comments from here on out. she can say anything she wants…it will go unread by me.
and, i will continue to enjoy this site!
December 29th, 2005 at 4:35 am
To Totally Nuts(suits you just fine):If you can’t understand my “comments’on this site,well,pity you!If you think that half irish-half-c.indian,who’s mentioned It’s heritage,over and over and over again,cheeeeeeeeee,give me a break,has a gifted writing style,you’re beyond any hope or reason! Descriptive enough for you? I’ll be back,”Ladies”
December 29th, 2005 at 6:32 am
TNuts, I’m sorry that I didn’t expand to the fullness of the remark I wrote to you about your saying your m.o. is to run the opposite direction when an attractive man appears. What I want to encourage you to do is to dig your heels in. If your physical attraction, intelligence, sense of humour, compassion, ability to give and receive love don’t intrigue a man, or vice versa, toss that fish back into the sea. There are more where that one came from! Go fishing again.
Attractiveness comes in many forms, unique to each of us. When I first saw my husband to be, I thought I had no chance. He was gorgeous. Turns out, he had noticed me,also, and the rest is history (20 years). All of us are human and subject to dreams, hopes and wishes. I used to believe in Santa Claus. Was that foolish? No. It was a dream, applicable to that age of my childhood. Is he in your life now, or just around the next corner? If you wish, go for it, girl. Just for today, let’s all be receptive to life’s realities and ponder the positive rewards. Have a great day and what’s left of this week. Hope to talk with you, and the others, again.
December 29th, 2005 at 6:44 am
Miss Flo: In a self-admitted confession, you came into this chat to stir up trouble. You’ve now had your Andy Warhol’s “fifteen minutes of fame.” You’re, obviously, itching for a fight that the rest of us cultured ladies are not going to participate in anymore, so, when, I hit the “submit” button, consider yourself “DISSED.”
December 29th, 2005 at 11:30 am
Hey everyone,
Molly here, the person who runs this site
I’m always so happy when a topic I enjoy takes off in comments (and Vincent is definitely a topic I enjoy).
However, we’ve got to keep things on par. No fights, please, and no flames against anyone or I will, against my better judgement, delete posts, block IP addresses if necessary, and worst case: close comments on this topic.
I didn’t sign up to moderate a forum on Vincent, so I’m trusting the goodwill of everyone here to help me make sure this doesn’t have to happen. I’m glad you visit my site and I’d hate to have to do something other than make you welcome here.
Thanks everyone, I appreciate your consideration,
Molly
December 29th, 2005 at 12:10 pm
thanks bebe. yes, that very thing is what i’m wanting to work on this year. STOP THE RUNNING!! easier said than done but i’m committed to it. i’ve finally realized life ain’t gonna come knockin’ on my door, doggoneit! so, thanks for the encouragement
i’ll bet your students love you - what grade do you teach? as an adult i realize how much influence teachers have. of course, i didn’t know it then but if one had noticed me (at that time i ‘ran’ by being very very ‘good’) what a gift that would’ve been!!! it seems, in my area anyway, that teachers are now so bogged down by huge classes, faculty politics and never ending paperwork that it would be challenging to remain energized and enthused…
anyway, i’m hoping this recent swirl of negativity on the board has come to an end. anyone else still out there?!
December 29th, 2005 at 12:58 pm
I LOVE Vincent! Just wanted to share it with my fellow V-ladies.
December 29th, 2005 at 1:17 pm
lolol v’s gal - getting us back on track?!!!
i couldn’t agree with you more!!
December 29th, 2005 at 4:59 pm
Response to I dream of Vincent: Yes, I noticed that Bobby drove the SUV out to Jersey too. Then stare down the barrel of the shotgun while negotiating w/ the distraught father. Too hot! Love when Bobby wears “street clothes” too. Though I have to say, I liked his teeth better before they were fixed! Anyone else agree on the teeth issue?
December 29th, 2005 at 7:57 pm
that was a good scene, esp. when he got the shotgun away from the father and slammed him up against the wall and sort of ’shook off’ the tension. TOO HOT is right!!!!!!!!!!!!!
haven’t noticed the teeth…gives me a good excuse to watch another 6 hours in a row…
December 29th, 2005 at 9:40 pm
TN, thank you for your kind comments. Don’t know if all my students “love” me , but I give it my all. I teach in a private school where class sizes seldom are over 12. I have two classes of juniors in grammar, two senior classes in creative writing for college bound kids, and one hour personal study time. Some days I come home exhausted. Others, I’m elated, because they finally “got it.”
You sound like someone I would like to know as a friend.
I haven’t watched CI for the last 3 episodes. Last night, my husband asked if he could wait just twenty more minutes until the show closed before he could assist with a chore. He’s as much a fan as I am. He was recently catching up on the postings on this site, and he made me give him a promise………the evening that VDO and I go out for a nice, long dinner, he wants to take Mariska Hargitay out the same night. I agreed. LOL On 20 Dec, I wrote a post in which I said I was quite down at the time, and I was in agony………..if you’re interested, scroll up and read the rest. I wish I could delete that one posting, for I already have that kind of man. My wonderful Mother passed away last year in December, and, I was/still am in such grief. My husband was tired from his work, and didn’t pick up on my depression as quickly as he usually does. And, for once, I found myself thinking “Bobby Goran would.” Then, while showering, I began thinking how, of course, Goran would be totaly empathetic, know and say all the right things at the right time. He’s an invented character who speaks lines written by screenwriters, edited for content, and has the opportunity for numerous outakes until the scene pleases whomever. I had been untrue to myself.
I just want to throw this out and get your replies. Have you caught yourself incorporating bits and pieces of helpful info from the plots? I surely have. And, I’m talking about being so more aware of my surroundings, taking more notice of people around me in a store, mall, etc. I now turn on our house alarm as soon as I get home, after allowing our two little dogs to go outside and return. I’ve seen, over the years, so much harm done to a woman in a parking garage that I won’t use them, even if I have to walk a block or two on the street to where I’m going. You get the drift of what I mean. Are any of you watching and learning real life “street smarts” from these cop shows?

Hi there,New to this site.I think Vincent is so talented,drop dead gorgeous,brainy,and he’s all mine,ladies!
December 30th, 2005 at 11:57 am
Hey it’s a big bad world out there so if Vincent lightens our load, I’m a happy bunny! Happy New Year everyone.
December 30th, 2005 at 12:00 pm
Bebe: So sorry to hear that the holidays are hard for you; I totally understand. My dad’s been gone nearly 3 yrs and my mom and I still can’t bring ourselves to talk to each other on Christmas Day; it’s too hard for both of us. Your 12/20 post isn’t that bad and you should never be ashamed of expressing your feelings. It’s better to let it out than keep it inside! We ladies all understand!!
)
As to your question about picking up on the “street smarts” and the investigation info, I totally find myself thinking like Bobby, Eames, and the detectives on SVU when I am watching the news and there is some unsolved crime that’s just happened! My husband is going to be taking a criminology course because of the Law & Order franchise!!
If you want to see a REALLY hot Vincent movie, check out “Crooked Hearts”. There’s a scene when he comes into the kitchen, shirtless and he’s very thin and in great shape. I believe my exact words were, “OH BABY! COME TO MAMA!” I may have blacked out after that! LOL.
December 30th, 2005 at 1:39 pm
bebe, i’m sorry to hear about your mom. one year is still fresh, i know. my mom is in mid-stage alzheimer’s so i feel like i’m going through a slow motion grieving process…ugh….
no, i don’t really feel like i carry things from these shows into my life. i’ve always tended toward being less cautious than i should be, although i always use good judgement. just don’t want a ‘possible’ crime prevent me from taking a late night walk, etc. foolish, probably.
i think teaching high school students is very very brave! i’m sure i’d end up regressing and just giggling right along with them, lol!!!
i’m sure your for a less than mariska hargitay slight you made, yourself! but yeah, it would be great if they were all coached along the way….
December 30th, 2005 at 1:42 pm
jojo - lol! that may be just what i need to ring in the new year!!!! thanks for the tip! the only movie i’ve seen with him in it is full metal jacket. hmmm…just didn’t do it for me
December 30th, 2005 at 1:45 pm
oops, my sentence got botched above. meant to say to bebe: i’m sure your husband understands what you wrote, and may be busy forgiving YOU for a ‘less than mariska hargitay’ slight that you may’ve made, lol…
December 30th, 2005 at 1:49 pm
Haven’t visited the site for a while and was sad to see people being so rude to each other when what we are all here for is to feed our obsessions about Vincent.
I was wondering when someone else was going to notice his teeth, which he got fixed half way through Series 1. I prefer the “old” ones, too. More character.
Spring and summer 2004 I was off work following surgery, and I sat through episode after episode day after day. I’d recorded the episodes (only Series 1 had been shown in England back then) but I’d lost the order. I felt dates overlapped, so I watched them over and over noting down what Goren and Eames were wearing on each date, trying to see if continuity had made any mistakes. The dates did actually make sense, but I had so much fun watching hour upon hour of Vincent day after day.
I still watch videos and DVDs of series 1-3 over and over just to feed my fantasies and obsessions, and I can tell you it is a lot of fun, and I never get bored. My favourite episodes are the one where he discusses relative size with a squitty little lawyer, and the one where he gives that amazing expressive sneer of disgust in a split second when the old lady admits the Chinese woman had to die so she could have the artefact. Vincent’s features are so mobile, he looks like a different person in almost every view, this is part of what makes him such a fascinating actor, and also means he is sometimes handsome, sometimes not. I can’t believe how far apart his eyes seem in some films, like The Cell, when they are really quite normal (and gorgeous).
Like everyone else I love it when his jacket comes off - ooh, those shoulders! - but am I alone in wishing we sometimes had the chance to see him in tight jeans?
Sorry, gals, for throwing that one into the mix. Happy dreams!
By the way, Chris Noth is the reason I don’t watch early episodes of the original Law and Order. I can’t stand the man. He can’t act and he gives me the creeps. Surely they could have done better than him?
December 31st, 2005 at 12:01 am
Val, Just last night, I watched an episode on USA where he had jeans on. Not really tight ones, but OMG, he looked good. I love that man, lol.
December 31st, 2005 at 12:03 am
Oh yes, almost forgot why I stopped by. Just wanted to remind everyone there’s a CI marathon on USA tomorrow. Whoo hoo!!!!
December 31st, 2005 at 5:21 am
Although we haven’t had the Noth episodes in England yet - god knows when we will, we’re sooooo far behind the States! - a dear friend has sent me tapes of season 5 and the first one I’ve seen Noth in is ‘The Wee Small Hours’. AWESOME episode, but I’m afraid Logan just annoyed me. He’s in ‘Bobby’s space’ as far as I’m concerned. HOWEVER, the whole reason for thim being there is to lighten Vincent’s work load and Vincent would have left had they not come to this arrangment, so I guess we tolerate Noth and keep Vincent.
December 31st, 2005 at 10:50 am
Hi, everyone. Before I start and end up forgetting, a Happy New Year filled with blessings, joy, and health to each of you.
TNuts, Alzheimer’s is a long, slow good-bye. Know that there are “sisters” online who acknowledge your situation and grieving.
JoJo, I hope you were sitting when you may have blacked out, so you didn’t have too far to fall. Thanks for the tip on “Crooked Hearts.”
Val, I saw that episode with the slimy little lawyer, also. Loved it when Goran goaded him about his small stature, including his small shoe size, then, plopped his foot onto the table and said he wears a “13.” I wondered if that had been written, or, if that were an impromptu VDO insertion, just as the leaning over to be at eye level with a “perp” on the very first episode, I think, and the producer liked it so well that he allowed it to become a Goran trademark.
I apologize to each of you who witnessed the recent exchange. The very last exchange from the one individual has been removed, evidently by Molly. It became a very personal, vitriolic attack, and I responded.
Back to Vincent. Yea, I’ve already noticed the marathon, but, shucks, I have laundry, mopping, vacuuming, decorations to be taken down, bills to pay, etc., so I’ll have to wait until late evening to catch a few episodes.
Don’t want to take more than my space, but, I have that date with VDO planned. And, being generous of heart, I am inviting all of you.!! But, it’s my dream, so I get to set the rules. LOL Will fill you in later so you’ll have time to shop for that “killer” outfit.
December 31st, 2005 at 9:23 pm
Happy New Year to all: has anyone noticed how much “Weight” Vincent has gained? I hope that he doesn’t have a heart condition! i know a lot of people who have gained a lot of weight,being on meds for heart problems.Anyway,he still is a very sexy,muti-talented,handsome dude,that I would love to “get it on with’.
December 31st, 2005 at 9:42 pm
Sorry,on my last comment, I misspelled multi-talented wrong. I guess I’m getting “exciteded”,for I’m about to watch Vincent in a almost X-Rated movie called “Claire Dolan”. Saw a clip of it on another website.He”s a lot younger and thin,but OMG, His scenes,and that beautiful body of his, will make you drool,and other “things”,get what I mean?
December 31st, 2005 at 11:44 pm
Carma, The weight gain is for another movie. I don’t think it’s that good for anyone to have their weight going up and down the way he does for different roles, but hopefully he is under good medical supervision to mitigate the effects.
January 1st, 2006 at 12:16 am
yah, it was definitely tricky trying to get things done around the house today during commercials only…lol. was hoping to see the ‘artefact’ episode so i could catch that sneer but i don’t think it was on. those subtlties say the most - fluid is a good word for his facial expressions/body language. that one scene where he’s telling bright boy’s father not to tell his son that the lie he told motivated the murder, so the son doesn’t have to carry it around the guilt for the rest of his life. that had about 5 expressions in one - magnificent!
i fear i’ve seen all the episodes, but how can that be true? has it been 5 seasons? do they tend to rerun some shows more often than others? i’ve only been hooked about a year, can’t think i’ve seen 5 years worth?
a final note before i go to bed (besides to wish everyone a happy new year) is, i think my cat is getting tired of law & order…
January 2nd, 2006 at 4:36 am
Hello all,
I am a recent convert into the wonder of what is called Vincent land. LOL. I think he is just incredible. I think the thing that attracts me the most is he is one of the few men I actually find interesting. He does not come across as your ordinary Hollywood type. Up until now, I have to admit, I have had a thing for, gasp, please don’t be shocked, Younger Men. He is the first guy older than me that I have ever found really attractive. I am 37, I have liked some guys that were only a couple of years my senior, but for the most part I have liked younger, much younger men. Now, I happen to be watching Criminal Intent one night, and right out of the blue it hits me, damn, this man is just, sensual. He exudes sex appeal. He is so big, he looks like he could just throw you over his shoulder and haul you off and do all kinda things, and he comes off as sensative enough that you wouldn’t mind him doing those things, cause you just know he will take care of you. Well, I think I have posted a book, I just want to say I am glad to see I am not the only one who has been lost in Vincent land.
January 2nd, 2006 at 10:24 am
JoJo, please overlook my not acknowledging the first kind words of your 12/30 post. Those of us who have experienced the loss do know the pain. Thank you.
Only one more mid-day posting from me before returning to work tomorow. And, it is so dark that the lights have to be turned on- has been pouring rain and thundering all night. Gloomy.
Sara, welcome to Vincent land. This is the place to be, if Vincent moves you, also.
Carma, I have noticed some weight gain, but I’ve only watched CI for the last year, and, with the reruns and more recent episodes on, sometimes, in the same week, I’ve gotten confused. But, he did stand up and put his suit jacket on a while back ( 3 weeks?), and I noticed a roll around his waist. Also, his face appears fuller. I didn’t know this beefing up is for another role, so was glad to be informed.
How about the last shot in the episode during the marathon in which the 2 cops had been murdered, and he, the captain, and the red haired detective were dressed in their formal blues to go to the funeral. Eames was to meet them there. Didn’t he look great in that uniform?
January 2nd, 2006 at 12:40 pm
Vincent put on weight for his Welles movie, but if you check out thereel blog, there’s a picture of him filming CI in New York on 9th December and he’s back to his ‘fighting’ weight and looks lovely. Mind, I actually don’t mind there being ‘more’ of him, it’s just more of him to love, but he DID say he was putting on some pounds for his movie and he ALSO said he’d be taking them off again - and he obviously has. Be well darling Vincent, you absolutely ROCK my world!! XX
And yes, he looked great in his ‘blues’.
January 2nd, 2006 at 2:01 pm
Yes, he looked sensational in his dress uniform. Even better than usual, although I wouldn’t have thought that to be possible. Yum yum, bouncy bounce!
Let me ask you this while I’m here, am I the only one who thinks that the red headed detective makes mousy little Eames look effervescent by comparison? She’s a real stick in the mud, that Bishop is! And what a little beyotch, like when she keeps asking our Bobby, “are you done yet?”, “are you ready to go”? There’s a reason Goren always gets the job done; at least Eames recognizes that!
January 2nd, 2006 at 2:21 pm
Hey, I meant to add that last night, Goren actually commented on how Eames “likes to drive, so she drives”. That snotty replacement partner was standing over his shoulder while he was trying to scroll down the computer and he asked her if she wanted to do it. I never noticed him remarking on why Eames tends to do all the driving before, even though I had seen that episode at twice in the past. That’s why I keep watching re-runs, I always notice new things. Well, that and the droll factor, of course, lol!
January 2nd, 2006 at 9:43 pm
Does anyone know what part he’ll play in the movie “The Breakup”
with Jeniffer Anistin and Vince Vaughn? By the way even if he gains
weight there’s only more to love.
January 4th, 2006 at 11:54 am
He’s a dreamboat no matter what he looks like! Big, small, shaved head, 5 o’clock shadow, goatee…. Don’t you just want to cook him wonderful meals of pasta and garlic bread? I won the battle over NFL/Bowl Games v. CI marathon over the weekend! Score one for the VDO Estrogen Brigade! LOL. Sara, welcome to our world of Vincent Obsession. I am eagerly awaiting the set of 8 Vincent magnets that I got off eBay. Lots of cool stuff on there to feed our crush/lust. The t-shirts and pillow cases are just a hoot.
Carma - do tell! How was “Claire Dolan”?
January 4th, 2006 at 5:17 pm
I have been off the computer for a few days, and I missed all the hullabulloo. I am glad Molly stepped in. This is a sight where we seem to be becoming sisters and it should remain that way. As I said in the past, we all love and adore Vincent and it is much fun to chat with each other and share our fantasies. We know that it is all in good fun. I wish all of you a good New Year. It has been a difficult one for many of us and I am glad we can share our thoughts on other things besides Vincent. I too lost two very dear people in my life this year and Christmas was difficult. I also know what living with someone who has Alzheimers disease does to the care provider. It has to be one of the saddest diseases out there. We need to support the one who is dealing with the Alzheimer patient. There is a lot of sadness in this world and we should thank God for making Vincent for us to dream about, talk about and talk to each other about. I haven’t had so much fun in a long time. Keep up the good work ladies. PS: I also saw the episode where Vincent was in uniform and yes he did look great. I also saw Crooked Heart and yes he is quite thin in that movie. Of course he was much younger then. His talent as an actor is superb. One of the reasons I like watching CI is because you do pick up pointers about things. I love the interaction of Eames and Goren. I have to laugh at times with Eames comments about Goren. A perfect match as partners in my mind. Here’s to happy Vincent watching in the New Year.
January 5th, 2006 at 12:21 am
My favorite Eames zinger was the episode where the insurance adjustor with
Asperger’s Syndrome committed 15 murders to get money to win his wife and kids back. The guy was really awkward, but also brilliant. After they interviewed him (before he became a suspect), Eames said to Bobby, “I didn’t know you had a brother”. Did you all watch the movie, I think it was in November? It had both sets of partners working on a case where 2 teenage girls had been murdered? Great movie! You saw more of Goren and Eames’ complicated relationship than usual, too.
January 5th, 2006 at 9:18 am
i think it was “i didn’t know you had an older, geekier brother”. yeah, that was great. how ’bout the one where they dig up a corpse in a skirt - eames identified the skirt as being in style 20 years ago. bobby thought about that for a moment then asked “you wore this skirt”? and she responded “looked good in it, too”. i like it when they pretend they’re dating, although she’s usually doing more of the talking in those scenes.
January 5th, 2006 at 3:05 pm
Oh yeah, I remember that quote! Great! And I remember the mini skirt, too. Remember the episode where they played a snooty couple looking at designer shoes? Or last night, the episode where he called a prostitute to the hotel room and she looked at Eames and said “whatever, you’re cute”. I just love that show. I love the way Bobby is both so commanding and gentle, at the same time. I love it when he alludes to having a sex life; I only wish that it was with ME!!! LOL
January 6th, 2006 at 5:34 am
I wish they would show Bobby having some kind of a life. I get to the point where I feel sorry for him. Believe me even though I am 68 I don’t want to mother him. There are other ways of comforting him. I too was wondering what role he plays in Breaking Up. Has Thumbsucker been in movie theaters? I live in a very rural area and our movie theater has never shown the movie. This rural area is very cold in the winter. It would be lovely to have Bobby to cuddle up too in the cold or anytime. Oh well just watching him on TV warms me up. Sigh
January 6th, 2006 at 3:11 pm
Thumbsucker was in and out faster than you can say Jack Robinson here in Tacoma, WA. It played at The Grand Cinema, for about a week, and which only gets independent and artsy-type films. I’m hoping it shows up on IFC one of these days!
Speaking of Bobby’s “life”, I know they’ve alluded to at least 2 past relationships. The first he mentions being able to vouch for a female city employee that works in their building and Eames smirks at him. Then there was another episode when he talks to a woman regarding stock purchases and she mentions her significant other and I think he says, “you’re breaking my heart” and she tells him, “you had your chance”.
January 6th, 2006 at 7:43 pm
Yes, those are the two that I can think of, too. But once in a while he talks about sex or romance, as part of the investigation. Like in the very first episode, when he says to a suspect, “We think her boyfriend died defending her. That’s what boyfriends are supposed to do”. because the perp treated his girlfriend like dirt. And then in a more recent one, he’s reading a book written by one of their suspects, and he remarks to Eames that “the sex is pretty robust”. I liked his response in the episode where Eames asked him what he thought about abortion, and he said, “I’ll tell you what I think when I get pregnant”. I love how he always jumps to help women, like that nanny who came in with all the bags and dry cleaning, or that psycho was unloading her groceries, or the hooker with her coat. The more I watch that show, the more I like him.
January 8th, 2006 at 4:45 am
According to Amazon, ‘Thumbsucker’ is out on DVD in the States at the end of January. Worth getting ladies, he’s such a darling in it (no changes there then!).
January 8th, 2006 at 5:58 am
I wonder how many talents our Vincent has. Remember the episode with the murder of a doctor at his son’s Bar Mitzvah? He questions the little girl who’s supposed to have been abused by her dad, and he produces a red crayon out of her ear. I assumed that was a put-up job, till I read he used to be a street magician. Then I read a comment by his dad about his huge hands and that really got me thinking. Real magic!
Did anyone read an article I found somewhere on the web where, when he used to be a bouncer, a guy smashed a bottle of ketchup into his face, breaking his nose, but Vincent still had to throw him out even though he didn’t know what was ketchup and what was blood.
Apparently long ago someone also told him he would never succeed as an actor, as he didn’t have “an actor’s nose”. Got the cutest nose on an actor I’ve ever seen.
The saddest thing for me in my current obsession with Vincent is that, when he was filming Full Metal Jacket, he was just five or six miles away from me here in London. He’s said before that he was a bit of a non-person when he was fat, and I’m sad to admit that, though I’m six years older than Vincent, back then I was at my most gorgeous and glamourous, dating an opera singer, and wouldn’t have looked twice at the man I now can’t stop thinking about.
Happy dreams to my fellow fans.
January 8th, 2006 at 2:33 pm
I too love the nose. I had read the same article about not having the nose for a star. He doesn’t seem to want to be a “star”. He does seem to keep in the background except for CI. You never hear anything about him in the papers, magazines, etc. Most of his movies he has not played the main character. I love it that he is his own person and not dancing to the tune of so many others. I have always believed in being yourself and not following the crowd, but I do wish Vincent would follow me.
January 8th, 2006 at 10:16 pm
I started watching L&O CI about 3 months ago and have become totally obsessed with Vincent D’onofrio.
I’m a 37 year old married mother of 2 and have NEVER had a “crush” on an actor! The only thing I watch on TV after my children are in bed is Law & Order CI that I have recorded on my DVR. My husband likes L&O also so he has no idea that I’m watching because of Vincent! Ugh
I recently saw “The Whole Wide World”, which I rented while my kids were at school and “Salt on Our Skin”, which I bought on ebay and hid in my recipe binder! Help!! I feel like I’m going crazy thinking about this man all the time. I glad I’m not alone.
Can anyone recommend any more really good films?
Thanks.
January 9th, 2006 at 10:11 am
I can recommend some good ones! “Salton Sea” - he plays a real sicko in that one, but it’s an excellent movie w/ a “cast of thousands”. “Mr. Wonderful” - he’s not in it that much, but he’s a complete SWEETHEART. “Crooked Hearts” - tortured soul, but a very very hot tortured soul. “Mystic Pizza” - another sweetheart & “old fashioned” guy. “Chelsea Walls” - a bit of a snoozefest….I just kept fast forwarding to Vincent’s scenes. “Steal This Movie” - he has the starring role as Abbie Hoffman & in the entire movie, nearly every scene. “Full Metal Jacket” - he’s very heavy but it’s a great role. He’s so versatile. “The Cell” - It was a bit too psychologically frightening for me to watch in its entirety. Also
