Top Ten Television Crushes

Alright, so Table 9 Mutant, Samantha at Sci-Fi Drama Queen, Abbi at Where The Wild Things Are and I were briefly discussing one of these, which I had been contemplating. Sounds like Mikey may join the fray, too. At any rate, I thought that this would be fun to do one and got it together. Without further ado, we’re off!

Sam Witwer as anyone, but I will go with Aidan Waite in Being Human (US)

As Doomsday or a centuries old vampire or even Starkiller, this guy is just hot, and plays that tortured but strong character so damn well! Aidan Waite is pretty awesome, what with his morals and willingness to do whatever it takes to make  everything right, to protect, to kill, to survive. Also endlessly entertaining, I really do enjoy him!

Jensen Ackles as Dean Winchester in Supernatural

Leather jackets, great music, wicked sense of humour that cracks me up each and every time, hiding in the shadows and so damaged it isn’t even funny, though he keeps a brave face because it is what he is expected to do. Fiercely loyal though incredibly jaded, Dean Winchester is one of my go to choices!

Evan Peters as Tate Langdon in American Horror Story: Murder House (as they are calling it nowadays)

I really, really liked him in all the American Horror Story seasons, though I am not totally sold on Coven, though he started with such promise. However, in Murder House, he nailed that role of psychopath perfectly. He was gorgeous, he was charming, he had a boy-like quality to himself, an innocence that he wore and worked with so well. You know that what Tate is doing is wrong, yet at the same time he manages to wrap you right around his little finger and be done with it.

Norman Reedus as Daryl Dixon in The Walking Dead

Yes. Yes. Do we see the cigarette? The long hair? The self assurance? The sheer badassness of the guy? Well then I really don’t need to keep justifying.

Zachary Levi as Chuck Bartowski in Chuck

Now we all know there are very few things to me as hot as a geeky, nerdy guy, so there was no ways that nervous old Chuck was not going to make the list. He is adorable, he is smart and damn hilarious, is a Star Wars fan as well as a little self conscious, which always works in his favour!

Joshua Jackson as Peter Bishop in Fringe

Jackson is not my regular cup of tea, but whatever. Peter Bishop was incredibly smart and well dressed (those jeans and jacket were always just wow), steadfast and always thinking out of the box, yet damaged in some inexplicable way (though that got cleared up later), he managed to string me along just fine all the way.

Dan Feuerriegel as Agron in Spartacus

Alright, here it is. There are few things that thrill me like a man with a nice mouth and nice teeth. This guy… I don’t know, so not my average cup of tea but then he was just gorgeous, and that smile was a killer (we can completely overlook the fact that he was not straight for the show, he was just something absolutely gorgeous to behold).

Alexander Skarsgård Eric Northman in True Blood

Though I stopped watching this after I dragged myself through the third season, I have to say that what kept me watching for so long (seeing as I cannot stand Anna Paquin and was not thrilled with the concept), Eric Northman remained quite worth the watch, to be honest, but the show just slid so badly downhill not even he could draw me back. But never mind that, pretty yum, right? Maybe I should just get over the fairy crap and see where it all goes…

Matthew Gray Gubler as Spencer Reid in Criminal Minds

Reid. Too smart. Ridiculously smart. I adore intelligence in a man. Reid, on the other hand, is intensely intelligent, slightly socially stunted yet absolutely sweet, trying his hardest and has a boyish quality to him that just somehow works here.

Milo Ventimiglia as Peter Petrelli in Heroes

The brother that was always trying, that was genuinely good in his heart, the man who wanted to make a difference in the world, who was overly curious and intent on getting to the bottom of things, and yes, just damn fine. Oh goodness, I think I have a thing for male nurses…

Honourable Mentions:

Dustin Clare as Gannicus in Gods of the Arena

More long hair, determination and immense amounts of confidence? Winner all around.

Tyler Blackburn as Caleb Rivers in Pretty Little Liars (don’t judge me monkeys, my best friend roped me into this).

The hair… the long hair. I am sold on long hair more often than not. Combine that with dark exotic looks and absolutely gorgeous dark brown eyes and a devil-may-care attitude to mask how nice and caring he is underneath it? Just my cup of tea.

Liam McIntyre as Spartacus in Spartacus

360_1liam_mcintyre_1 (1)

Yep, I am aware that there is more Spartacus on my list but really, these were probably the hottest rebellious slaves in all history with the world’s greatest dental work. Either way, it doesn’t matter. Spartacus was the fearless leader of the slave rebellion, intent on reclaiming his freedom and avenging his dead wife and all the dreadful things he had been made to do under threat of death. Very caring yet at the same time cold and brutal, Spartacus really was the man to watch strive to make a difference, as well as witness the loyalty people felt towards him.

  1. This is such a fab list. I love it, I’d like to have its babies. Seriously though, this is probably a carbon copy of the list that I’d make for TV crushes, although I’d probably promote Gannicus from Honourable Mentions because I love his cheeky face.

  2. I think you should stick with True Blood. It is, I think so dumb and done with tongue firmly in cheek that it’s kind of impossible to get mad at it. I do watch it with a WTF! expression on my face half the time though.

    I would have also added Don Draper on there by the way, and also Raylan Givens from Justified who is cool as ice!

      1. True that, but I liked him. Supernatural (up till season 5) and American Horror Story are both excellent. Spartacus is simply amazing, too. Very intense.

  3. Fun post Zoe!! I barely have time to watch TV but I did check out a couple of episodes of the US version of Being Human and yes Sam Witwer is a cutie 😀 Sorry but I don’t find Alexander Skarsgård the least bit attractive for some reason, ahah.

  4. Love your post!

    I did this post

    http://fairytalepictures.wordpress.com/2013/11/28/the-best-of-the-best-tv-characters/

    of The Best TV characters of all time and because there is hardly any women I could just replace Lorelai and Friends cast with today’s crushes: Sheldon of The Big Bang Theory (yes, there is something wrong with me) and Sherlock of BBC (of course). I’m not gonna replace Buffy cos I might start liking girls for her. 😉 And then again, I might want to change Barney to Jess Mariano of Gilmore Girls (Milo in any part is fine with me though).

  5. LOVE THESE CRUSH LISTS!!!!! : )

    I watch very little TV, though. Only Walking Dead & the first four or so seasons of Supernatural. Agree with Dean but still don’t fully get the Daryl thing! ; )

  6. Excellent choices. Ackles and Skarsgard are YUM, Gubler is adorably nerdy, and Peters is pretty, too, but I actually preferred him in Asylum. His hair as Kit was just…the best (though his performance in season one was off the charts). Still getting to know Jackson, but I like him so far! 🙂

    1. Thank you kindly lady! Oh phew I misread that for a second and thought you were praising Peters for his performance in season three, and I was thinking they didn’t even use him! I must say, I loved his hair in Asylum, I am way more for the longer length and messy 😀 (though I am trying to get my other half to comb that style from Asylum in now his hair is short… so not winning). Ah, Fringe? Jackson is PERFECT to play Peter!
