Wow, I thought I was the only one who lusted after Niles Crane! ---

Abbie Carmichael from _Law and Order_ Claire Kinkaide from _Law and Order_ Donna from _That 70’s Show_ Willow, of course. ---

Lex Luthor, the Smallville edition. Not Michael Rosenbaum, but Lex. He’s just so … intense, driven, and right on the good/bad line. He’s dangerous when he needs to be. Clark, while nice eye candy, is too much of a good boy for me. [sub]I didn’t develop this bad boy thing until I turned 30… [/sub] ---

Another vote for Niles Crane. And nobody has mentioned Fez? The guy has it all. And he can sing and dance. To hell with Kelso. ---

I used to watch “Felicity”… I know i’m losing my manhood just saing that, but I did… and I liked her a bunch. Felicity, I mean. Drusilla. She’s insane and sexy… what more can you want? Sure, she’s a vampire, but I’m not sure thats a huge problem… Whatshername from That 70’s Show… the girl Eric is dating. I’m sure her name will hit me once I post this… she reminds me of a girl at my school, and she’s very cute. But nobody gets to me like Chloe does… _sigh_ ---

**Ethilrist** mentioned my fave: Mrs. Peel from _The Avengers_. Smart, tough, and sexy! I guess both of us go back a way. ---

**Jimmy Fallon** , especially when his hair is all spikey. And when he does his imitation of Dave Matthews, I could pee my pants. Funny, smart and cute. (now you understand the method behind my madness when I put Tina Fey on my SDMB Death Pool 2003 - she is my competition!) ---

> [@](#): > > _Originally posted by gex gex_ > Rory Gilmore. Mmm… I’m moving to Stars Hollow and picking a fight with Dean and Jess. This is almost embarrassing, but I’ve got a thing for Paris, from the same show. I’m considering therapy. And Willow, of course, especially Vampire and Evil Willow, but that appears to be pretty normal. ---

Greetings I want to give my vote to **Max Guevera** (TV’s **Dark Angel** ). Jessica Alba… yummy **Lana Lang** is also yummy As is **Ling** , from Ally McBeal And why has no-one mentioned **Joey Potter** from Dawson’s Creek? Katie Holmes is the only reason why I still watch that show. Those are the characters that make me thump… And girls who glide deserve men who make them thump… Cheers Reuel ---

Does Paige Davis count as a character? She’s my only real celebrity crush. I also like that Willow. I love the way she delivers her lines as though they are taking hurclean mental efforts. Though I only watch the show when I’m at my sister’s house. Although she’s a criminally underage cartoon character, I do like Kim Possible, I must admit with no small embarrassment. ---

Um, I meant “Herculean mental efforts”. Sorry about that. ---

Dax. Jadzia and Ezri both although I admit to liking the latter a bit more. Deanna Troi from TNG always did it for me too. I always wondered what her reaction would be if she could have sensed my emotions pertaining to her. Oh, and B’ellana from Voyager. I usually don’t go for the feisty woman but gah… she was gorgeous. I’ll fight you for Hoshi, **Tars Tarkas**. 🙂 \ For girls here on Earth… Rachel Green on Friends. Soooo hot and pretty much the epitome of what I love in a woman when it comes to personality. I totally empathize with Ross. ---
