Silly Little Crush(es)

I, like most people (or at least that is what I tell myself), have a few silly little crushes on people who star on television shows.   No big deal.   I think they are cute or funny or charming.   And as I sat and watched one of them the other night, I got to thinking about my list.  My list of famous people I secretly (or in many cases, not so secretly) have what I call "a thing" for.    Here is my silly little list:

 1.  Mark Harmon - NCIS.   He just keeps getting better.  And he has been married to the same woman forever and saves people in real life on occasion.
2.  Timothy Olyphant - Justified.  Raylan is a amazing.  Not many people can pull off that cowboy hat wearing, southern drawl thing.  He does! 
3.  Jim Caviezel - Person of Interest.  I remember a day in 2002 when Nathan and I were celebrating our anniversary.   We went to see a little movie called The Count of Monte Cristo.   I came out and said, "I know it is our anniversary, but I love him."   In the last decade, that hasn't changed.  And he loves his wife - how cool is that.
4.  Seth Meyers - Saturday Night Live.  I really only watch SNL for Weekend Update.  If Seth ever leaves, so will I.  He makes me laugh.
5.  Phil Koeghan - The Amazing Race.  I am convinced that Phil is a Christian.  He just has that quality about him.   
6.  Matt Bomer - White Collar.   I forgot him so I had to go back and add him.   He is too beautiful for words, really.

I guess that completes my silly little list.   I left off Shemar Moore because I think every women who has ever seen him would put him on the list.   I also had to to leave off the ones that aren't on television anymore.   Like Gary Dourdan who was on CSI.  Sigh...
I am curious who would make it onto your list.   Guys can participate, too, as my husband has long had a crush on Elisabth Shue who is now on CSI.  So let me know - that way I don't feel so crazy :).

Jon Hamm - Don Draper, Mad Men. Johnny Galecki - Leonard, Big Bang Theory. Maks - Dancing with the Stars. Bill Klein - The Little Couple. Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert. Brendan Coyle - Mr. Bates, Downton Abbey. And I have a girl crush on Christine on Sister Wives.

How do you know so much about Mark Harmon?! Although, I get it. He is hot and mysterious.

My list:

Robert Redford could walk up to me right now in an adult diaper drinking prune juice and I'd still find him sexy.

Matthew McConaghey can get naked and high and play the bongos all he wants so long as he smiles his crooked smile at me while talking all southern.

And my weird one: John Cusack. I just love him! He is plain but oddly sexy.

And honorable mention: Orlanda Bloom. He used to be dreamy but then he played a coward in Troy and I've lost all respect for him as a human being (I realize how fair I'm being to him).

There ya go!

PS - I used to have Lester Holt on my list, but then he got really gray....so I took him off. Now he is dyeing his hair, so Todd asked me if I want to put him back on (a la Friends), but I'm not sure I can erase the image of the gray hair. If he wanted me to keep him, he should have gone bald. hahahaha!

Ok! I'll play! I don't watch a lot of TV anymore, but , and brace yourself, there is something about Rick on Pawn Stars. He is so smart and he knows what he knows because he sought it out.

My other crushes are musicians: John Mayer, Dave Matthews, and, brace yourself once more...Eminem. Yep, I have a hard time understanding that one myself.

What a fun post! I will have to write my own when I get back, plus it'll give me time to think :)
