hottest males from the 2008-2009 tv season!
Time for second half of the annual hot list -- the boys! That's enough talking, let's get to it!
(As always, previous lists can be found here and here.)
5. NOT JUST HOT FOR A COMEDIAN: Jason Sudeikis - Floyd/Himself (30 Rock/SNL)
How'd he fare last year? Jason is a noobie to the list and we're glad to have him.
What makes him hot? He's funny in that subtle, everyman sort of way. Like John Krasinski but cooler and better looking. With the quality of SNL declining, where Jason really shines is not in skits, but in roles like Floyd. It's a shame he didn't get more than just a guest spot. I swear, he could charm the dairy out of milk with that smile.
Hottest quality? The dimples.
4. THE OPPOSITE OF A NEVERNUDE: Ryan Kwanten - Jason Stackhouse (True Blood)
How'd he fare last year? He hasn't had a reoccuring role since Summerland (which he was also hot in), so this is his first year.
What makes him hot? I can say it's the cockiness and that Southern drawl he sports on the show, but really it's mostly just the fact that the guy is shirtless (if not more) like 80% of the time. Plus, he's Australian and as proven by the women's list, Aussies are hot.
Hottest quality? Lack of inhibition.
3. THE REIGNING KING OF SCI-FI: Tahmoh Penikett - Paul Ballard (Dollhouse)
How'd he fare last year? He was on iminyourfanclub 's list last year with the other BSG boys, but I stole him this year.
What makes him hot? All that pale Yukon skin, the piercing green eyes, and chiseled jawline is too much to handle. It also helps that he keeps playing these sexy but sensitive tough guys (which he does very well). Usually I'm a sucker for bad boys, but Tahmoh is a reminder that the good guys can be hot, too.
Hottest quality? That silky smooth voice.
2. THE GEEKY GREEK: Michael Rady - Max Tyler (Greek)
How'd he fare last year? Wasn't on a show last year (though he was on Swingtown in the summer, but I didn't watch it).
What makes him hot? There's always a guy on my list that has that intangible hotness. Last year, it was Michael C. Hall, this year it's a different Michael. Yes, he's good looking, but it's something more than that. Maybe it's because he's like the perfect boyfriend on the show, I don't know, but I can't get enough of him. I might be forced to watch the Melrose reboot just for him.
Hottest quality? Being Michael Rady?
1. THE JOCKS: Taylor Kitsch/Zach Gilford - Tim Riggins/Matt Saracen (Friday Night Lights)
How'd they fare last year? Taylor repeats his place at #1, while Zach makes his debut.
What makes them hot? This spot was initially just going to be Taylor like last year, but Zach Gilford is too sexy to ignore, so I cheated and put them both on here. Taylor is pretty much hot for the same reason as last year -- he's Tim Riggins -- but Zach has slowly built to the point where he too is hot because he's Matt Saracen. If you want proof, just ask my sister, who can't say anything else but "I'm going to marry him" when he comes on screen.
Hottest qualities? I hate to objectify him, but damn Taylor's body. And while Zach isn't too shabby himself, it's his almost unintentional hotness that makes him even hotter.
Honorable Mentions:
* THE ALMOST COMEBACK KID: Eric Dane - Dr. Mark Sloan (Grey's Anatomy)
After going from #1 to completely off the list, Eric is regaining momentum and has clawed his way back up to the HM list. Now if he could only take his shirt off some more...
* THE GUY THAT MARRIED HIS SISTER: Michael C. Hall - Dexter Morgan (Dexter)
Okay, so marrying your sister is totally not hot, but I couldn't help myself. Plus, it's only his TV sister. That being said, it's still kind of creepy and maybe that's what bumped him down to the HM list because he certainly didn't get any less hot otherwise.
* CHANNEL FLIPPING HOT: Carmine Giovinazzo - Det. Danny Messer (CSI: NY)
I don't watch his show, but anytime I happen to catch a glimpse of him on there, I have to stop and stare. Hence, his title.
Where'd they go?
* Lee Pace - Cancelled.
* Christopher Gorham - Written off.
* Milo Ventimiglia - Show started sucking.
