Hottest Men on TV

Jared Padalecki

On my sexiest men list at least Padalecki gets to be on top (pun intended). His exotic features have that x-factor thing going on and even though he doesn’t always look ‘pretty’ – who wants a man to look pretty all the time, huh? ;)

What with the longish hair, the height, an exceptionally hot body and the characteristic heavy voice, Padalecki certainly makes one a hell of a desirable combination. If you have seen the latest Jared Padalecki Rio De Janeiro pics you know exactly what I am talking about.

And if you haven’t yet, here’s what you missed!

Stuff to check out: Friday the 13th, Supernatural, Christmas Cottage.

The guy started out as a Dean Forrester on Gilmore Girls in 1999, and later went on to appear in slasher flicks like House of Wax and Friday the 13th. But obviously Supernatural was his claim to fame in the year 2005 in which he plays the role of Sam Winchester. Since Supernatural Season 8 has been officially picked up by CW it is good news that we will surely be seeing more of Sammy next year.

You should also check out the lesser know straight-to-DVD movie Christmas Cottage (with Peter O Toole) in which Padalecki plays the role of Thomas Kinkade, the painter of light. Even though the movie isn’t the usual stuff I like to watch, I found it heartfelt and sincere. And most of all, Padalecki is shown in a completely different light – something you don’t really think he is capable of considering most of his fame comes from the horror genre.

I enjoy watching even the most ridiculous movies of my favorite actors (guilty pleasure) and that is usually a bumpy ride to say the least. But if you don’t want to waste your time, stick to Christmas Cottage and go for Friday the 13th/House of Wax only if you are into run-of-the-mill horror.

 

Joe Manganiello

Known for playing Alcide Herveaux in Alan Ball’s True Blood, Joe plays a werewolf who is secretly in love with Sookie Stackhouse, who by the way, already has her hands full of the hunkiest looking vampires in the state of Louisiana. Before that Manganiello has also appeared on shows like How I Met Your Mother, One Tree Hill and ER, but TB is by far his best performance yet.

True Blood is coming back for another season in another 34 days so hang in there! I love the fact the Manganiello has that virile look, and unlike the rest of them he leaves his hair be – rocking the whole salt-n-pepper routine. He also made an appearance alongside Ashton Kutcher, playing Alex in Two and a Half Men couple of weeks back.

Stuff to Watch Out For:

True Blood, Two and a Half Men, Til death, White Collar, One Tree Hill, Scrubs and Spider-Man 3.

Charlie Hunnam

I am not going to say he is a version of Brad Pitt because that would just be unfair. Hunnam is a lot more than just a pretty face and I suppose, he does have some very essential qualities. The minute you see him in a leather jacket, riding a Harley with his rugged charm, it will be love at first sight I warn you. If you want to see another side of him, watch Queer as Folk where he plays the role of a fifteen year old boy in love with the playboy who took his virginity. I particularly enjoyed his performance as Nikolas Nikelby which is an adorable film that you can watch over and over again. Hunnam too has that whole bad-ass routine going on about him – no wonder he was the perfect choice for Kurt Sutter’s Sons of Anarchy.

Stuff to check out:

Queer as Folk, Nicolas Nikelby, Sons of Anarchy. Sons of Anarchy is a brilliant show. A fabulous creation of Kurt Sutter, who by the way, is my role model :P . You will fall in love with just about every character. Just sit down for season 1 and let the story develop and you will see what I am talking about. I also enjoyed watching the Brit version of Queer as Folk, and Hunnam’s role is delightfully fresh and attention-grabbing.

Jensen Ackles

Jensen is the quintessential super model face: The lips, the eyes, the high cheekbones, he is the story book depiction of good looks. When they write those Mills and Boons novels with gorgeous men, this is what they are basically describing. His smile melts mountain tops and his tears make kittens die, or so I’ve heard.

He hates his hair, so you never see him with longer hair anymore but you can get a glimpse of how long hair might have looked if you can find some episodes of Days of our Lives or Dark Angel. But of course, Supernatural is what you should be watching if you have any adoration for the guy. He plays Dean Winchester, older brother to Sam Winchester played by Jared Padalecki.

Stuff to Watch Out for:

Supernatural, My Bloody Valentine 3D, Dark Angel, Days of Our Lives. If you are really into the guy you might want to sit for Days of Our Lives, but if you are like me and not that inclined, you might want to catch some episodes of Dark Angel, in which his one-liners are a reminder of the whole Dean Winchester personality type. You can also watch Ten Inch Hero, in which he appeared alongside wife Daneel Harris (Harold & Kumar), as a punk-wannabe with odd hair and piercings who goes through the whole ugly duckling routine. The movie is, well, ahem, stupid, to say the least :P But its so stupid at times it will make you laugh at least for the sheer silliness of it. Warning: Daneel Harris is a phenomenally bad actress.

Jack Davenport

If you have seen the UK version of ‘Coupling’ you will know him right away. But if you have only seen the US version, then I don’t know you until you watch the British version first. Generally I am of the opinion that US versions are better off (Skins, Shameless, Being Human) but when it comes to Coupling, there is no other version that could even come close. It is without a doubt one of the funniest shows on television you have ever seen, and Davenport plays the lead role of Steve.

Stuff to Check Out:

Well FlashForward was a good show, and Davenport plays the character of Lloyd Simco. You end up feeling so sorry for him you don’t even care that he getting it on with Joseph Fiennes wife :P These days you can catch him in SMASH and although he looks very different from what you are used to, the role of Derek Willis is certainly a new beat. By the way, I am really loving Smash. He is also appeared in movies like Pirates of the Caribbean and the Talented Mr. Ripley.

Matthew Cohen

Oh yeah, another topper on my list! :P That puppy dog look is enough to make us swoon but the guy is incredibly talented as well. Even though he hasn’t exactly been in the news recently, apart from a short stint on Supernatural as John Winchester (who is ironically Sam and Dean Winchester’s father :P well, its in the past of course but still its kind of hilarious). Matt also appeared in the television show South of Nowhere.

Stuff to Watch Out for:

Supernatural, South of Nowhere, The OC, 90210

[That's all for now --- will update this list in a couple of days and give you more guys to drool over! ;) Until then you can give me your suggestions as well. ]

Supernatural 7×21 Reading is Fundamental

[Supernatural Season 7 online streaming links below]

First of all, I think we can all break out the champagne since Supernatural Season 8 is a real thing now. Yes, they have officially announced that the network picked up the series for another run! A source also mentions that the finale will have appearances from the new prophet as well as Bobby and Cass.

Now for this week’s details.

The episode was a really good one: Castiel is back for real and the angel-demon routine is going about as well. Not to forget the one-liners were plentiful and uproarious. Nerdy ‘advanced placement’ honors student Kevin gets hit by lightening because Sam and Dean break the concrete slab they got from Leviathans. Inside the slab is a tablet, inscribed with something no one can decipher. The effect of the slab-breaking also hits Castiel who is awake from his catatonic state.

Meg calls Dean and tells him about Castiel’s waking up and she also mentions that he isn’t exactly as he used to be and asks them to drive over. The guys cancel their trip to Rufus’ cabin and instead head over to where Castiel is placed. In the meantime, Kevin is going through a weird phase where his eyes light up and he finds himself hearing directions.

He gets redirected from his SAT exam to where Castiel is located so he can get his hands on the tablet. Castiel, who is acting strange to say the least, remembers some things but is also having constant psychotic delusions; not to forget he’s yet again feeling a certain affinity for Meg. Meg says she needs to know more but when Sam and Dean both don’t seem like they should trust her, she threatens to take Castiel away.

Castiel manages to tell them that the tablet is actually ‘the word of God’, not designed for angels but for prophets, the only ones that can read the language. When Kevin comes in the middle of this and tries to take the tablet away Sam manages to catch hold of him but he doesn’t let go of the tablet. Soon it is revealed that two angels were giving Kevin the directions and he is the new prophet.

Meg, Sam and Dean all fight the two angels when they get violent. One of them decides to side with Castiel but Meg has to kill the other one before she kills Cass. When Kevin tries to read, he barely manages the words “Leviathans”. Sam and Dean ask him to translate the text which is a time consuming process even for a prophet. So they decide to take Kevin away to Rufus’ cabin where he would be safe and where he can do the decryption.

Well, finally the guys have a way to ‘ice’ Leviathans – but the spell is very specific and calls for particular items, which is what they will be doing in the next episode apparently. Meg has already suggested that Crowley is still going to create problems and if the promo is any indication we are going to see Mark Shepherd and a very angry and powerful Alpha Vamp (back from when soulless Sam got Dean turned by a vampire in Season 6.)

Here is the promo and official description for the next episode.
