My TV Boyfriends
Every week I spend quality time with guys who are impossibly good looking, brave, funny, and charming... too bad I have to share them with millions of other girls. There are a plethora of McDreamy and McSteamy men on tv to tempt female viewers. I thought I would share some of my favorite tv guys that are flying under the radar.
Men in Charge
Agent Seely Booth, Bones. He's number one with a bullet. Besides being good looking and charming, FBI Agent Booth feels ferociously protective towards his partner, Dr. Temperence Brennen. When Brennen was shot at by a serial killer, Booth wouldn't let her out of his sight and ended up getting blown up by a bomb meant for her. If that wasn't enough, I could always rely on him to stop by with late night Chinese food to cheer me up after a bad day.
Captain Malcolm Reynolds, Firefly. Captain of the space ship Serenity, Mal carries a gun and can the man take a beating or what? In a mere half a season he's gotten punched, knifed, shot multiple times, burned, tortured (complete with ear removal), drugged, run through with a sword, and killed (but he got better). He's also pretty confident, getting away with wearing a dress or a fancy suit (earning the nickname "Captain Tightpants"). He does what's right and what he believes in while still being little bit naughty. I know it would never work out between me and the emotionally withdrawn space captain. But I can't help it. I even dreamed about him once. He's just so... stirring.
Sheriff Jack Carter, Eureka. Jack is quick on his feet and has an easy smile. He just seems like a nice honest guy who would follow through if he said he would fix something I was complaining about, like a leaky faucet or a parking ticket.
Bad Bad Boys
Any of the Winchester men, Supernatural. These guys are heating up spine chilling situations week after week. Take your pick between cute younger brother Sam, steamy older brother Dean, or the intense father (with the gorgeous eyes) John. Sure, fighting demons is hard work, but it's fun too and those guys are extra cute when they smile.
Spike, Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel. It took a long time for the bleach blond vampire to grow on me, but you can only resist the sexy smirks for so long (I'm a sucker for a good smirk). I actually didn't totally fall for him until the very last episode of Angel. Knowing he would probably die that night, he spent his last day on earth reading his own poetry at an open mic bar. I melted like ooey gooey ice cream.
Smart is Sexy
Jack Hodgins, Bones. Jack is a brilliant scientist, heir to a large fortune, and completely adorable. Jack has had many shining moments like the time he emerged from the decontamination shower in just a towel or his romantic kiss with Angela on the swing set, but he recently shined when he was buried alive by a serial killer and used his brains to escape. He also enjoys conspiracy theories and hospital pudding.
Mohinder Suresh, Heroes. It's really hard to choose from all the great guys on Heroes. It was a tough race between Mohinder and Hiro, but I have to go with tall, dark, and seriously smart. Oh, and the accent doesn't hurt either.
Just Regular Guys
Richie Velch, The Class. Playing on my weakness for red heads, Richie is sarcastic, sweet, and pretty screwed up. He totally won me over with his heartfelt love for Lina and the speech about magnesium and water. The character is probably not my ideal guy, but it this case I might be a bit more drawn to the quality of the acting.
Stosh "Piz" Piznarski, Veronica Mars. Cute, naive, and willing to go bowling just to hang out with a girl he likes. I just can't help but go "awwww." He's a better catch than some of those other jerks on the show. So far he's admitted when he did something stupid and was as nice as possible to a girl who he wasn't into. I also have a feeling that Piz has a strong side that will come out when Veronica needs it the most... something about the way he blew off Logan. Oh, and the crazy dancing; I love that he's not afraid to make a fool of himself to help save people!
Bear Grylls, Man vs. Wild. I know, I know. I shouldn't put people from a reality show on this list (especially ones that are married), but this guy jumped in a frozen lake and then stripped down to his British flag boxer shorts. Then he took those off too and I've never seen any one so cold look so hot. Couple that with the fact that he could save us if we were stranded somewhere and he's on the list.
Great guys are often underappreciated, so if any of these faces are new to you check them out on tv or dvd. With the amount of television I watch, my expectations have probably been ruined for real guys, so leave a comment let me know your favorite tv guys or girls. It will make me feel better about having so many tv boyfriends.

So nice and squeaky clean, but SO hot. It must be the accent. That, and he has the skylls to keep a girl alive.
