The story lines are awesome but let’s face it – having a hot male lead on a TV show is a bonus! Here are our picks for the 5 hottest male characters in recent TV shows.
1.) Jon Hamm as Donald Draper on Mad Men
Mizzou grad Jon Hamm plays steamy advertising executive Donald Draper on AMC’s hit show Mad Men. The glamour and secrets of 1960s New York life would be more than enough to keep a girl interested, but Hamm adds a certain spice that is impossible to resist. Despite his character’s many flaws, you can’t help but love him. And his many shirtless scenes don’t hurt his case. The sixth season of Mad Men aired Sunday, April 7, but you can watch all preceding seasons on Netflix.
2.) Ed Westwick as Chuck Bass on Gossip Girl
Handsome British actor Ed Westwick perfectly portrays the seductive bad boy of the Gossip Girl series, Chuck Bass. His brazen confidence leads to the most enticing of sexcapades, but his soft spot for Blair shows this hottie’s lovable, emotional side as well. Whenever he utters that notorious phrase, “I’m Chuck Bass,” it’s always a close tie between the urge to slap him and the urge to kiss him. Even though the beloved series came to an unfortunate end last year, seasons 1 to 5 can be found on Netflix.
3.) Ty Burrell as Phil Dunphy on Modern Family
Hear me out on this one. Ty Burrell’s character on Modern Family is a total D.I.L.F. His quirky antics and enthusiasm on the ABC show make Phil Dunphy an undercover cutie. Phil adds so much humor to an already sidesplitting show that it is impossible not to fall for him. His semi-cool dad advice and creation of the Dunphy-pedia simply add to his charm. Modern Family airs Wednesdays on ABC at 8 p.m.
4.) Adam Driver as Adam Sackler on Girls
Main character Hannah’s on-again, off-again love interest Adam Sackler embodies the reckless spontaneity every girl secretly looks for in a significant other. With a picturesque physique and puppy-dog eyes, Adam is an instant heartthrob and one of the most interesting characters on Girls. His naivety, brutal manliness and relentless devotion to caring for Hannah makes Adam even more adorable than he is based on looks alone. You can watch Adam and catch up on the past two seasons of Girls with an HBO Go account.
5.) Scott Disick as Scott Disick on every E! show about the Kardashians
Scott, Lord Disick, L.D., whatever outlandish nickname you prefer to use, is one of the sexiest and most fashion-forward baby daddies on reality television. He is known for being Kourtney Kardasian’s partner and father to their two beautiful children Mason and Penelope, but Disick has taken on a celebrity persona of his own apart from the Kardashian family madness. With his love for expensive suits and custom accessories, like canes and eye patches, The Lord is anything but boring. Don’t listen to those who judge you for watching this fine piece of entertainment. Catch Scott in the recently premiered finale of Kourtney & Kim Take Miami on E! Online.
