    Don't know about you all, but I tend to like characters more than I do actual actors. So how about a list of everyone's top 5 character crushes.

    Me:

    1. Charlie Salinger (Matthew Fox) on Party of Five
    2. Dylan McKay (Luke Perry) on 90210
    3. Pacey Witter (Joshua Jackson) on Dawson's Creek
    4. Bobby Donnell (Dylan McDermott) on the Practice
    5. Coach Eric Taylor (Kyle Chandler) on Friday Night Lights

    Interesting topic ...

    Off the top of my head, I can think of:

    - Katie Holmes' character on Dawson Creek. Creeped out by her now, but I was smitten back then.
    - Jennifer Love Hewitt's character on Party of Five
    - Julie Bowen on Ed
    - Julie Bowen on Ed
    - uh, Julie Bowen on Ed :D

    Nicole Eggert on Baywatch. Just saw pictures of Nicole Eggert today and the crush is dead, but her from 1991, 1992, yeah. Jennie Garth on 90210. I consciously sought out possible girlfriends who had a Garth-like look. Always failed.
     
  4. Teri Hatcher as Penny Parker on Macgyver is always gona be on the short list for me.

    followed by . . .

    Teri Hatcher as Susan Mayer on Desperate housewives
    Teri Hatcher as Lois Lane on Louis and Clark (see a pattern developing?)

    and moving on . . .
    Lea Michelle on Glee
    Holly Marie Combs as Piper on Charmed

    Samantha Micelli on Who's the Boss (Don't start. I'm only a few months older than the lovely Alyssa)
    Natalie Hurley on Sports Night
    Lois Lane on Lois and Clark and Smallville (Great character played by two very sexy actresses)
    Sarah Reeves on Party of Five (Ok, I never really watched the show. But it's JLH, dammit)
    Emmanuelle on Emmanuelle in Space (crossthreading with the love for Krista Allen)

    Second Cosmo's addition of Carol Vescey on Ed.

    Also, Kate from whatever their show -- is there even a show anymore? -- is called these days.
