NB: These are TOTALLY silly (not meant to be in any way serious) lists!

They started off as 'Top Fives' but have become more like top sixes, tens, nines, or whatever! But you get the idea! :-) They came together with mutual input from a variety of European fans!

 

Top fifteen reason’s why Mag 7 could never be set in Europe

  • Prostitution is illegal everywhere but Amsterdam…and the windmills just wouldn’t work
  • Those clothes would get them arrested even in Berlin
  • Ride the distances they do and you’d end up in another country!
  • Mexico isn’t close enough
  • Chris doesn’t have any enemies in Europe…so there’d be no plot!
  • Advanced civilizations…arrrgh, no!!
  • Seven men hanging around together that much would be frowned upon even in Manchester
  • Natural bodily expansion during flight and those tight black jeans? He’d never survive the trip
  • Even Queen Victoria bathed once a year
  • Europe isn’t dusty enough
  • Hearing real Irish accents would shock and confuse them
  • They’d start a war with Ireland before realising they’re not all dodgey bad-guys
  • Seven men that good looking?..…in Europe? They’d be slaughtered!
  • Most of them have never mastered English…what makes you think they can learn French?
  • Riding horses through the streets is pretty much frowned upon and carrying a gun is illegal

Reason’s why CBS never ‘got’ Mag 7

  • Too many big words
  • Too much talent
  • No women on the executive board
  • No naked women in the first five minutes
  • Michael is the only one of the 'Seven' not to get his kit off so far *EG*
  • Laurie Holden has managed not to get naked
  • No wet t-shirt’s contests
  • It wasn’t filmed on a camcorder and sent in by viewers
  • It has a script
  • They failed history
  • Seven men bonding and ultimately living together - eeekkkk
