TV crushes

I’ve finally figured out who it is that I had a giant crush on that was mentioned in some thread a long time ago, but I couldn’t think of his name, and I didn’t want to go
revive a thread to say this.

John Ratzenberger is the guy! And then after I realized who it is, I noticed that this guy named [Scott Kennedy](http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.laughsunlimited.com/Scott ennedy.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.laughsunlimited.com/scottkennedy.html&h=519&w=350&sz=29&tbnid=fhSPT__PJe8J:&tbnh=128&tbnw=86&hl=en&start=1&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dscott%2Bkennedy%2Bcomedy%26svnum%3D10%26hl%3Den%26hs%3DbMy%26lr%3D%26client%3Dfirefox-a%26rls%3Dorg.mozilla:en-US:official%26sa%3DN) was complaining about being single. I’m now combing the internet for his phone number so that I can remedy that situation.

So I suppose this thread is to vocalize crushes you have on obscure TV personalities.

Well, she’s not exactly obscure, but I’m currently in love with Katie Couric.

Are we talking actors or their roles? Because all my television crushes are more on the character than the person playing them. If the latter, mine are…

  1. Willow Rosenberg as played by Alyson Hannigan
  2. Xander Harris as played by Nicholas Brendon
  3. Hoban Washburn as played by Alan Tudyk

…and while they’re not particularly obscure considering the bent of this board, they are cultish to the population at large.

The particularly astute might even notice a pattern.

TV crushes?

Man, so many really rude jokes I could go with…

In two totally different directions…

Instead, I’ll give a real answer: that Mercury girl. You know… the girl in the Mercury ads? The ads selling Mercury vehicles, that tall, nice looking spokeswoman…?

She’s hot.

character:

Amita Ramanujan on Numb3rs as played by Navi Rawat.
Rose on Two and Half Men as played by Melanie Lynskey.

Actress:

Emily VanCamp from Everwood.

Richard Engel, NBC correspondent in Baghdad. Fluent in Arabic, graduate of Stanford, perfectly coiffed and ironed at all times, looks fab in bullet proof vest.

Still waiting for Michael Vartan’s phone call, now that he has some spare time.

I’m not much into TV soaps, but whenever Kelly Karlson (sp?) is on Nip/Tuck I’m sat there glued to the box.

Abraham Benrubi from ER

Oh, and Ethan Suplee

I’m seeing a pattern here…

Is the pattern that you have a weakness for guys who bite their lower lip? The pictures of the first guy all had him in the same lip-biting pose.

Heh…no, it’s that I have a weakness for large, burly, youngish-looking men.

Where was it you lived again? :wink:

The more obscure ones… hmmm… I’ve several “main character” ones (Chandler from Friends being perhaps forefront), but…

Norman (David Garrison) from It’s Your Move (and of course Jason Bateman from any show)

Almanzo from Little House on the Prairie (one of TV’s all time great booties- big, firm, very spankable with a CB Antenna)

Mr. Roark from Fantasy Island (Ricardo, not Malcolm)

Jon from CHIPS (Estrada always struck me as vain and sleazy, but Jon seemed like the nice guy who’d be really hot in private)

Bernard (Chris’s black half-brother) from Northern Exposure

Grinder Girl

Kind of obscure, if you’re not into goofy guys and/or animals.

Jeff Corwin

Mmmm…safari shorts. Corwin is kinda cute.

:eek: God you ARE a pervet.

Not that I’m going to eqit myself any better…err…ummm…

Lister from Red Dwarf.

I’d make curry for him any time.

Oh, I like him, too! I’m always trying to convince my son to watch Animal Planet so I have an excuse to see him.

When I was a kid I had a huge crush on Paul Michael Glaser, specifically as Starsky from Starsky and Hutch.

I had a huge crush on tv’s Batman, Adam West. My aunt’s mother managed to get an autographed photo of him and I had it with me every night when I watched the show. These were the reruns in the 70’s. I was born in '69.

I also had a huge crush on Steve “Deitrich” Landesburg from Barney Miller. Oh, and Erick Estrada! And who can forget John Schneider as Bo Duke?

If cartoons count then Speed Racer and Hank from D&D are on my list.

Of course when I was very little I had a mad crush on one of the main characters on The Lone Ranger. Yup. I wanted to marry…Silver. :smack: What can I say? Little girls like horses.

I was a twisted child…

Thought of another one. Paul Kiernan who singlehandedly made me watch the horrible Disney movie Go Figure.

Oh, didn’t mean to ignore you. That’d be Arkansas. Unfortunately for you, both Sampiro and swampbear and probably a few others are closer than you. You’d better make a mad run here, because I don’t know if you’ll be able to make it before them. (not that I think that either of them are on their way to Arkadelphia.)
