I answered this before, but that was _months_ ago! I have to take one off of my previous list: Dr. Luka from **ER**. They ruined him! But never fear, I’ve got a replacement: Gil Grissom from **CSI** ---

Willow, sweet Willow. Anya too, definitely. Someone mentioned the word ‘sexpot.’ Sounds about right. Gloria Trillo, the Annabella Sciorra character from the 3rd Season of the Sopranos. Thinks a little too much for her own good and is just dark enough to be irresistibly sexy. Plus, you know, played by one of the greatest beauties on the planet. Brenda Chenowith, Rachel Griffith’s character in Six Feet Under. Compulsive thinker with razor-sharp edges, but such a beautifully bittersweet character under it all. I’d never admit to my undying love for Kes from Voyager, so I’m not going to. ---

I’m in love with Liz Parker from Roswell! So yeah, her probably…🙂 Kes from Voyager was sweet, and Donna from West Wing would do nicely thank you VERY much. ---

Well, in chronological order, it’d have to be Thomas Magnum, Sam Beckett (of Quantum Leap), and Rupert Giles (of Buffy the Vampire Slayer). In fact, I’d still take any of them. StG ---

Since the lovely _Mary Ann_ was listed, as was _Jeanne_, I’ll really show my age in confessing adolescent hots for _Emma Peel_, aka Diana Rigg, from the British series, the **Avengers**. ---

Great! No one’s claimed Casey from _Sports Night_! Dibbs! I’d also take Dan as a second choice. **Kat** , I think we’re going to have to do some negotiating about Gary Hobson and Sam Beckett. I’d also date Bruce Campbell as Briscoe County, Jr., Autolychus, or just about anybody else. Also on my list: Michael Knight, _Knight Rider_, especially if he picks me up in Kitt Face, _The A-Team_, although any of them could be fun Captain John Sheridan, _Babylon 5_ or the doctor (why can’t I think of his name?) Dr. Who in his Tom Baker incarnation Thomas Magnum or Rick from _Magnum P.I._ John Creighton, _Farscape_ Wolverine. Luke Duke, _The Dukes of Hazzard_ Ahhh. So many men, so little time. ---

**Seven of Nine** , certainly. And I’d do a much better job than Mister Wimpo Harry Stutter-And-Look-At-My-Feet Kim over the question “Do you wish to copulate with me?” (answer: "In principle yes, but I feel it is very important to ensure that you fully grasp the significance with which humans invest this apparently-uncomplicated activity, and I strongly hope you will ask me the same question in six months’ time 🙂 ) **Barbara Good** , from Brit 1970s sitcom “The Good Life”. Cute, intelligent, adaptable, loyal, witty, industrious, capable, competent, kind, and did I mention cute? Cannot imagine a better wife. And even if she is sixtyish these days, Felicity Kendal would only have to ask reasonably politely 🙂 ---

Add me to the list for Willow and Anya from Buffy. My all-time though would be Samantha from Bewitched. I’ve had a crush on her since the first time I watched the show. ---

Faith, Cordelia (with long hair), and Buffy - in that order. Now I want to do Gwen (lightning chick) too. Rachel from Friends before she got all skinny. Jennifer Love Hewitt’s character from Party of Five (always had a thing for that girl). My brother wants very, very badly to do Seven of Nine. ---
