After nearly thirty years, I still have a geeky crush on Gil Gerard, of Buck Rogers. Saw him at a sci-fi convention once. He was about twice the size he’d been in the old days, and he was still sexy.
Christina Hendricks as “Saffron” on Firefly.
Hey, you need to share that! I’ll even let you pick first but I want Al.
Wow - me too! She’s married to Corbin Bernsen, the lucky bastard. On L.A. Law, after Roxanne left him, he had a knockout brunette secretary who later joined Mackenzie Brackman as a lawyer. I still see that actress on other shows now and then. Oddly enough, she looks a lot like Amanda Pays, too.
Then there was Erin Gray as the tough-but-hawt pilot Wilma Deering in the 1970s Buck Rogers, and Maren Jensen as Adama’s daughter Athena in the original Battlestar Galactica. Plus there was a c. 1975 Robert Conrad spy show in which he had a beautiful woman on his team - Marty, I think her name was?
Ah, TV crushes…an American rite of passage.
I work in a business where the Weather Channel is on every morning.
In my dreams Nicole and Heather from the weather channel fight over me.
Each morning I can tell that there is a little friction between the two. Most probably stemming from some comments one of them has made about adoring me.
Hey its my dream I can do what I want
Do non-fictional underage actresses count? Because I kind of have this tiny crush on an actress seven years younger than me- let’s call her Selena G…no, on second thought, let’s call her S. Gomez- and I don’t want Chris Hansen and/or Pedobear coming after me. Nothing sexual, mind you- I just think she’s cute.
As long as I can keep his red fedora. (not like that you perverts!)
Yay!
I get to live out the glory of some of my crushes by… writing out nice… “exploding stuff!” scenes and gunfights for them.
Damn.
Maybe I should make a switch and start asking for smoochie scenes next season. DAMN. Me and my explosions. And gunfights. And murders. And things that go boom. ::: pouts :::
This is what specialized script writing and editing will get you, kids. You’ll get stuck writing about the things that blow up, and all the chases… but never the smoochies for your favorite characters and actors. sigh
Woe!
Elly, scribe, glad to be back to work. 
Paula Hernandez (Indra Ové) and Harriet ‘Harry’ Eschenbach (Julia Bremmerman) - Space Island One
and Lady Penelope. F.A.B. indeed! I even liked her in the god-awful live action movie. But then she was played by Sophia Myles, and what Dr Who geek didn’t didn’t drool over The Girl In The Fireplace?
Bob Crane , from Hogan’s Heroes. BEFORE anyone suspected he was Mr. Kink.
He’s not obscure, but I also think Tony Soprano is seriously hot. I’ve only heard James Gandolfini speak a few words out of character and his mannerisms are very Woody Allen-ish, it’s so strange. So it’s not him, it’s T.
Barbara Feldon, Agent 99 from Get Smart.
And Jan Smithers, of course.
Hm. It never occurred to me that script writing was that specialized.
You and 80% of the male Dopers out there.
And me.
Not very often. (ETA= I should say: it’s becoming more common – but that’s another discussion for another time 
) Sometimes, however, you’ll find that writing teams have someone who will be particularly good with specific topics of specific themes. Often, we’ll bounce bits of dialogue or scenes their way.
Me, I blow shit up.
I also do a lot of consults on very specialized topics and, being a scribe, over the years it has meant writing chunks of scripts or, more often than not, polishing scripts for accuracy.
Sutton Foster is so hot. She’s so flippin’ hot. She’s like a curry. I want to tell her how hot she is, but she’ll think I’m sexist. She’s so hot, she’s making me sexist … bitch!
re: Kim Possible
After season 4, I think he does. I mean, where do you think they’re going in the flying car at the end of the “Graduation” episode?
As for TV crushes, I still like Alton Brown. Mmm…
If we’re counting animated guys, I have recently developed a crush on Renji from “Bleach.” Plus there’s Ed from “Fullmetal Alchemist” 'cause I like guys with long hair. But he’s 15, dammit! :mad:
I had a crush on him during the original series even though I was in college and really too old to be watching Power Rangers at the time. Imagine my surprise when fast forward to 2004 my 6 yo son is watching Power Rangers: Dino Thunder and there is Tommy Oliver all grown up! Nice! Why yes, we have the whole series on DVD…why do you ask?
Oh, and Peter Davison, the Fifth Doctor.
Probably Marianne Robertson. She was in twenty episodes of Babylon 5 variously as “Tech #n” or “Dome Tech” during season 1.
I made a spreadsheet with all of the principals checked off to show which eps. they were in, plus all of the credited roles, plus the writers, plus the directors. I think I got your geek trumped.
David Krumholtz (Mr. Universe from Serenity, and Charlie Eppes on Numb3rs). OhmyGodsuchadork. shame!
Elenfair, is it kosher to say which show you work on?
