Re: Not to keep beating a dead horse but...
I've never cared that much about celebrities' personal lives. To me, David Boreanez and Booth are two separate entities and I can make the distinction while watching.
Although, I agree with the people above me: I always kind of smirk whenever I watch an episode where Booth delivers a line about how wrong cheating is, and how he's never cheated.

Re: Not to keep beating a dead horse but...
In most cases I am able to seperate the character from the actor, so no I don't have any issues watching DB in his various roles. Sure from a fan perspective there's a little bit of disillusionment but IMO what went on is between him and his wife and has nothing to do with his career.

Re: Not to keep beating a dead horse but...
I can separate real life and fiction, and even before the whole cheating thing came out, I have to say that I could imagine DB as a cheater, I don't know why exactly, but I wasn't shocked. He just struck me as a bit of a player. Not saying he's a bad guy, just I've never thought of him as a real-life Booth.
It's not affected how I view Bones, because I realise there's a difference between fact and fiction.
What DB does or doesn't do in his personal life shouldn't have any bearing on the show.
Reading the above comments - ha, yes, I smirk a bit when DB has to say when speaking as the character of Booth, about how cheating is not good (words to that effect), etc...
But Booth is Booth, we feel we know the character. As for DB, he's not Booth, we don't really know him, not really. We just see what we read in the papers/magazines/tv interviews and form our own judgements.

Ditto. His personal life has nothing whatsoever to do with why I enjoy his acting. His personal life is just that...personal.

YES! Finally someone I can agree with.
This is the kind of stuff that turns me off forums. Leave the celebs private lives alone. None of our business.SO--who's excited for the new season of Bones?

Now that it is nearing the one month to season 6 point, I am getting excited. Can't wait to see Booth "grow a set"
and Brennan acknowledge that she has more than friend/partnership feelings for Booth. One step at a time so I no longer have to
