Sexiest writers on television?

Zap2it.com, a Web site that reviews and previews your favorite television shows and movies, has released a list of the 16 sexiest writers on television.

The list includes Californication's Hank Moody, 30 Rock's Liz Lemon and of course Carrie Bradshaw.

And in case you don't recognize the blonde bombshell in the picture, that's Smallville's Chloe Sullivan.

But I was surprised at the characters the list left out: The West Wing's Sam Seaborne, the title characters from The New Adventures of Lois and Clark, and what about Rome's Gaius Maecenas? I wouldn't throw him out of bed for eating dormouse. (Sorry, that was a little Latin class humor.)

Anyway, what do you think? Any television writers you'd love to write you a sonnet or two?

About the bloggers

While she always preferred The Hardy Boys to Nancy Drew, Nancy Knight grew up reading nearly everything she could get her hands on, including a probably unhealthy amount of R.L. Stine and Christopher Pike, with the obligatory Jane Austen thrown in. She'll still read just about anything you put in front of her, especially the funny or weird. She lives in the city with her books, cat and drum set.

Dave Rosenthal came to The Baltimore Sun as a business reporter in 1987 and now is an assistant managing editor and Sunday editor. He reads a wide range of books (but never as many as he'd like), usually alternating between non-fiction and fiction. Some all-time favorites: A Confederacy of Dunces by John Kennedy Toole; Wind, Sand and Stars by Antoine de Saint-Exupery; and anything by Calvin Trillin or John McPhee. He belongs to a book club with a Jewish theme.
