    Kari Byron (Mythbusters)

    All others are second or lower, criteria be damned.

    Sirs,

    Forgot Clare Kincaid. If she did Judge Thayer I'm in the hunt. (David Groh isn't.)
    And I saw Lilith on the street in Manhattan one day. Her skin is absolute ivory but is she ever tiny. Behind big shades but heads snapped wherever she walked. Everybody picked her out.

    Great list of TV crushes over the decades.

    To move into the non-fiction category, as in real TV personalities, sportscasters, newspeople, etc. (ESPN, CNN, Fox, etc.) ...

    1) Hannah Storm, ESPN (Professionally, she's nails. Back in the "NBA on NBC" days she was still a kid trying to find her footing. She's become an excellent anchor at SportsCenter, one of the best. And, she's like the cutie pie next door who loves to talk sports.)

    2) Betty Nguyen, CNN (Sweet yet savvy, sharp as a whip.)

    3) Rachel Nichols, ESPN (Professionally, she's getting better. I think she'd flourish even more if she brought more of her radio'ness to the TV. Love her personality, too.)

    4) Suzanne Malveaux, CNN (Great eyes.)

    5) Aditi Roy, NBC Philadelphia. (She makes sweating at the gym much easier in the morning.)

    * Kate Austin (Evangeline Lilly), Lost
    * Natalie Hurley (Sabrina Lloyd), Sports Night
    * Kaylee Frye (Jewel Staite), Firefly
    * Grace Van Pelt (Amanda Righetti), The Mentalist
    * Sydney Bristow (Jennifer Garner), Alias

    It skews a little modern, because I'm sure I'm forgetting many from back in the day, but this is a rock solid lineup.

    Garner before the botox was lights-out. Since then, not so much.
     
  8. Love her, but I am suprised at how it is feast or famine with her to some.

    And I feel ashamed for leaving elizabeth montgomery off my list. Beautiful woman.

    Definitely. A former colleague who's here disagrees with me when I mention Rachel and cute.

    I just don't see what y'all see in Rachel. And to mention Rachel and not mention Miss Erin Andrews is the height of ridiculous. But, to each his own.

    And, as others mentioned above, Lilith had a very, very, sexy burn in her eyes. Mmmmmmm.

    On the John Ritter show "8 Simple Rules ..." Kaley Cuoco got all the attention but I really liked the other daughter played by Amy Davidson. A different kind of beauty but beautiful nonetheless.

    As for Lauren Graham, absolutely love her but never watched Gilmore Girls. Had I watched that show she may have made my top three of all time for the purposes of this thread.

    When I see Erin, my hatred for ESPN melts away.

    But I don't consider ESPN a TV show. I consider it a hideous, overgrown monster in the form of a Wal-Mart in its industry.

    But see, Erin's beauty melts that away.

    When she's off the air, it grows back.
