Who do you tune in to watch every week and harbor that tiny secret or even not so secret crush for? You can only pick one person, but you can change your mind (because they aren’t action figures for you to collect)… I call Gordon Ramsay. ---

kind of an odd twosome: Mark Salling as Puck on GLEE (a very non-cerebral character but a “walking streak of sex”) and Leonard (Johnny Galecki) on BIG BANG THEORY who’s very cerebral but not particularly who you’d want to see naked (though I wouldn’t mind). ---

Erin, the redhead on The Office and I are deeply in love (she just doesn’t know it yet). ---

I had a few when I was young, foolish, and desperate but their careers outside of the TV shows they were on always ended up being so disappointing that I eventually felt embarrassed for liking them. In fact, it seemed like my being fond of them was a guaranteed kiss of death career-wise. ---

Castle, obviously. Though back on Firefly it was really Simon Tam. And that guy who played Spock in the last movie. ---

I can’t decide between Hugh Laurie on \*House \*or Tim Roth on _Lie To Me_. Can I have them both? 🙂 ---

> [@Tequila\_Mockingbird](#): > > You can only pick one person, but you can change your mind (because they aren’t action figures for you to collect)… Okay, I’ll pick only one for now–but I’m going to change my mind about seven times! 🙂 I’ve just started watching \*Bones \*from the beginning (and thanks to Netflix and my new Roku I’m already about midway through season 2), and I find [Michaela Conlin](http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_koe4s68SPG1qzvmrjo1_500.jpg)(“Angela”) very sexy! ---

I have a crush on Susie Fogelson who is the female judge on _The Next Food Network Star_. My commercial crush is the girl on the iPhone 4 commercial who gets her hair cut too short. ---

I don’t actually have a TV, but if I did, Kari would be reason enough to watch _Mythbusters_. Oh, there are plenty of other TV characters I find as attractive or more so, but Kari has the advantage of being real.
