THEN: It was a classic moment in 90s television: Jordan Catalano and Angela Chase walking down the locker-lined hallway, all angsty and forlorn. Jordan with his grungey hair, undecipherable number of shirts under the brown corduroy jacket accented by the pointless silver chain around his waist holding up pants that were desperate to fall off. Angela with her perfect red, shoulder-length bob, bad jeans and wide “oh why won’t he just love me” eyes. And then - magic. He grabs her hand (thus fulfilling the fantasy of 15 year-old-girls everywhere with a soft spot for dyslexic bad boys). Swoon.

NOW: After the ABC bigwigs canceled “My So Called Life” things for Jordan (yes, I know his name is actually Jared) went downhill. He went from poster-in-my locker heartthrob to douche bag singer from 30 Seconds to Mars. Ick.
