Colin's girl. Sun, Apr 29, 2007 at 08:13 PM EST

I don't like anyone on the writers list, so I made my own. Pick Colin Egglesfield, yeah!!!! He's a HOTTIE!!!

Colin's girl. Sun, Apr 29, 2007 at 08:09 PM EST

Oops, in my comment below I meant to put "He needs to be People's sexiest man." NOT, "He needs be People's sexiest man." Sorry about that.

Colin's girl. Sun, Apr 29, 2007 at 08:06 PM EST

Colin Egglesfield is THE SEXIEST MAN ALIVE!!! He needs be People's sexiest man. For those of you who don't know who he is, he plays as Josh Madden on ABC's soap opera All My Children. I've met him in person, oh my goodness he is so, so, so, so sexy. Please pick him. He's a hottie!!!

Lisa K. Fri, Apr 13, 2007 at 02:53 PM EST

Tom Welling is the hottest sexiest man alive!!! Oh yea baby!!! I don't understand why he is not at the top of every sexy man list.

DAVID TENNANT IS THE SEXIEST MAN ON THE PLANET WITH NO ARGUEMENTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

natalie geoghegan Fri, Dec 8, 2006 at 08:08 AM EST

Wentworth Miller, by far should be the sexiest man..!! welli n my eyes he definatly is..!!xxxx

cuhjebuver Sun, Dec 3, 2006 at 04:50 AM EST

TOM WELLING is most definitely the sexiest man ever! Perfection!!! All the other guys named are attractive, but not the sexiest... like Tom Welling =)

Leslie Fri, Dec 1, 2006 at 10:51 AM EST

GERARD BUTLER! I can't believe he didn't even make the list! OMG!!!! Stop repeating the same men and see who else is out there looking MIGHTY FINE!!!

TG Fri, Dec 1, 2006 at 03:42 AM EST

In reality I dont know nothing about the sexy mens. But I heard TG is bringing shameless back!

zym Thu, Nov 23, 2006 at 09:05 PM EST

I believe Wenthworth Miller is a good choice. He also has the sexiest voice. I would love to hear him sing!

JakesBoy Mon, Nov 20, 2006 at 10:25 AM EST

Definitely NOT happy with People Magazine's choice for 2006 Sexiest Man Alive. Clooney??? Really??

Here's who I think should have had a run for the title - what do you think??

http://jakesboysbigbadblog.blogspot.com/2006/11/whos-sexiest-man-alive-you-decide.html

sarah Sun, Nov 19, 2006 at 02:06 PM EST

WTF?! weres JENSEN ACKLES on that list ur missing the most important person! supernatural's dean? why isnt he up there if u want people to read the magazine u have to have someone who will catch the readers attention like oh.. i dont no maybe..JENSEN ACKLES!

Jensen Lover Sun, Nov 19, 2006 at 01:55 PM EST

WHAT!!! NO JENSEN!! Are you JOKING! Jensen Ackles is the sexiest man on the planet! A Supernatural LEGEND! and hes not even MENTIONED! well... my dya is ruined! Clooney looks old and greasy! AND UGLY!! its supposed to be Sexiest man ALIVE not sexiest man CLOSE TO DEATH!

SARAH FO FARAH BANANA FANNA Sat, Nov 18, 2006 at 12:06 AM EST

I'M JUST GLAD 4 OF MY 5 FAV ACTORS MADE THE LIST:
-Adrien Brody
-Jake Gyllenhaal
-Hugh Laurie
-Leonrado DiCaprio
-Jim Carrey.

JIMMY, I STILL LOVE YOU ): YOU'RE MY SEXY.

ggjustice Thu, Nov 16, 2006 at 12:33 PM EST

Are you kidding me? George Clooney is sooooo 10 years ago! There's a new man in town and his name is HENRY IAN CUSICK. His warm eyes melt more than just my heart!

Davetta Thu, Nov 16, 2006 at 02:53 AM EST

Tom Brady
Taye Diggs
Jensen Ackles and his bro on the show
Tom Brady
Keith Brooking (Atlanta Falcons)
Tom Brady
Reggie Bush
Brandon Routh
Reggie Bush
George Clooney

AmeGee Thu, Nov 16, 2006 at 12:18 AM EST

I'm SO excited to see so many John Krasinski fans! His smile just makes me giddy. LOVE him. great actor too
2. Jensen Ackles. HOT
3. Johnny Depp - I know, old news. But still hot.
4. Taye Diggs
5. Rainn Wilson. hahaha whoever left that earlier comment, I love you!
6. I don't care, Patrick Dempsey is hot.
7. Dane Cook
8. BJ Novak. I know this is my third person from the Office (if you count Rainn) but he is looking GOOD lately.
9. Matthew Perry I don't watch Studio 60 but he will always have my vote
10. Jake Gyllenhaal
11. I was going to do 10- but Tim McGraw.
Please not Justin Timberlake. Every time I think we've finally gotten rid of him, he comes back. Ugh it's getting way too Cher-like for me.
Also, Keith Urban is way too femenine for me.

Mab Wed, Nov 15, 2006 at 10:34 PM EST

George Clooney - again?

Jeez. Booorrrring.

Dear Annie - please put together a decent list. One that doesn't include George Clooney. Or Brad Pitt. Or any of the usual suspects. A Different kind of Sexy. Nerd Sexy, prison sexy, BSG sexy, supernatural sexy. *anything*. What a disappointment.

dma69 Wed, Nov 15, 2006 at 11:04 AM EST

I'm not happy. I just went into CNN.com and People announced their pick.

(drumroll, please)

George Clooney??? AGAIN???

What's with these people picking two-time winners? First Brad Pitt twice, now Georgie? Are they crazy? Nothing against him personally, but I prefer a new Sexiest Man Alive every year, not a repeat from a few years back.

I still think it should've been Wentworth Miller. So not happy right now. :(

silv Wed, Nov 15, 2006 at 10:26 AM EST

I called it earlier! George Clooney! After all, they're asking for sexiest MAN alive...

peanutflutter Wed, Nov 15, 2006 at 10:16 AM EST

George Clooney (again). They really need to be more original. I vote for Dane Cook

Elisabeth Wed, Nov 15, 2006 at 08:53 AM EST

HENRY IAN CUSICK!!!

because of the constant hotness! =)

Marilyn Tue, Nov 14, 2006 at 03:51 PM EST

If I could choose the sexiest man alive, Gerard Butler would definitely be my number one pick, but I agree with the comment that he's not as famous here in the states as he should, or could, be. My two second picks would be Keith Urban or Patrick Dempsey. Decisions, decisions.

Mab Tue, Nov 14, 2006 at 12:59 PM EST

Annie, the more important question is when does EW's issue of Sexiest Man Alive come out and...do Micheal Slezak and Scott Brown make the list? Hehehe. Where's a staff photo when you need one (g)

Natalia Tue, Nov 14, 2006 at 07:06 AM EST

Wentworth Miller...inviting!!!!!ooo yes :)

Carli Tue, Nov 14, 2006 at 02:37 AM EST

My list includes:

Ryan Reynolds
Wentworth Miller
Jamie Bamber
Michael Vartan
Clive Owen
Taye Diggs
Matthew Fox
Jason Segel
Eric Dane
Jensen Ackles
Gary Dourdan
Josh Duhamel
Justin Hartley
Eric Mabius

And I'll throw in a sports star: Cristiano Ronaldo!

moviemadd Tue, Nov 14, 2006 at 02:31 AM EST

What about Daniel Craig? I would like to see John Krasinksi of "The Office" or Patrick Wilson of "Little Children," but am hoping the overexposed and boring Patrick Dempsey isn't chosen. I'm so over that Hairstyle and his weak, whispy voice. "McDreamy"? More like "McWimpy."

Stacy Tue, Nov 14, 2006 at 12:17 AM EST

Wentworth Miller hands down. But, Dominic Purcell would be a nice second.

shawn Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 11:17 PM EST

Craig...Daniel Craig, of course.

heidi Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 10:34 PM EST

my list:
Josh holloway
Goran visjnic
gerard butler
eric bana
Daniel dae kim(Jin)
ben affleck

Mab Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 10:09 PM EST

Who said David Caruso? Oh the wrongness of that.

Wentworth - yes.
Christian Bale? Absolutely!
Daniel Craig
Clive Owen
Hugh Jackman
And God. Jensen Ackles. Best thing on the CW currently.

Mark Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 10:08 PM EST

Isn't Wentworth Miller gay ??? Not that there's anything wrong with that. I'm just telling you what I heard.

meemee Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 09:09 PM EST

My choice would definately be Wentworth Miller. He is just absolutely beautiful! He is totally hot!!

Shenee Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 08:21 PM EST

Christan Bale.

hes hot
and he can actually act.
we cant say that about a lot of those guys.
ahem. Orlando, Channing Tatum. ahem.

wally Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 08:13 PM EST

after they named ben affleck sexiest man alive (was he the last man standing that year?!?!? wtf?!?), i lost respect for People magazines choices.

AJ Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 06:43 PM EST

Ryan Gosling makes me swoon. Talented and gorgeous.
Also:
Anderson Cooper
Clive Owen
Wentworth Miller
Jason Statham (the ultimate badass)
Jamie Bamber

Alicia Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 06:30 PM EST

They should just name the cast of "Lost" the sexiest male cast alive. I don't care what happens on that show, as long as Matthew Fox, Josh Holloway, Henry Ian Cusick, Naveen Andrews, etc. are still on it, I'm there.

Jensen Ackles is the main reason I TIVO Supernatural every week. He's on my desktop right now (mmm...tasty).

Taye Diggs is back on TV! I get to have my weekly Taye fix again!

David Tennant: hottest Doctor Who ever! He was even fine as a nasty looking Death Eater in the last Harry Potter movie.

Patrick Dempsey's hair should get a cover of it's own. It's so thick and shiny and full and I just want to run my hands through it and... sorry about that.

Sisterfriend, I'm right there with you. Gerard Butler is yummy.

jbdean Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 05:50 PM EST

NO doubt about it! Henry Ian Cusick should be at the TOP OF THE LIST! He's hotter than hot! He's smokin'!! He's handsome, cute, sexy, rough-&-tough, soft and gentle, he's got it all ... and either accent (his own or Desmond's) are to die for!

CH Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 05:36 PM EST

John Krasinski--mmmm, for sure!!!

Daniela Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 05:04 PM EST

JOHN KRASINSKI... BIG TUNA <3 He's adorable with a great sense of humor. If only I worked in a midsized paper company.

V.M.L. Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 04:59 PM EST

Indeed, Henry Ian Cusick!!!!!!!!

anr Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 04:55 PM EST

Wentworth is hands down the sexiest guy alive on the planet right now. End of story. Period. The End.

Dwight Shrute Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 04:38 PM EST

I'm deeply offended that no one has suggested me. Jim, Jim, Jim! Is he a volunteer deputy? Does he have a black belt? A beet farm? A girlfriend with strong arms? NO! He doesn't even have his own bobble head (although, judging by all these comments, he's probably not lacking in offers for the other "head"). Where are all of my like minded cohorts? That is all.

K.B. Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 04:38 PM EST

Henry Ian Cusick ALL THE WAY. He is so hot, my tv almost melts. This man has it all, great accent, bod, hair, personality...the works. The man it totally smokin'!

rachel Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 04:37 PM EST

Wentworth Miller no contest.

Ben Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 04:37 PM EST

I wish more people knew of Robin Thicke and his music. He is devastatingly handsome and sexy and beyond talented.

Pam Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 04:23 PM EST

John K. is NOT REALLY JIM. It's the overall package, not the character someone plays that's sexy

Paris Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 04:19 PM EST

Who can forget that pic of Matt Lauer walking on the beach this summer? Now, that's hot!

angela Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 04:11 PM EST

JOHN KRASINSKI!!!!!!

Liz Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 03:49 PM EST

Justin Timberlake- if he doesn't win this title there is something SERIOUSLY wrong!

Patrick Dempsey- watching him week after week still amazes me at his beauty!

John Krasinski- so adoreable with a great personality! :)

sisterfriend Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 03:46 PM EST

I KNOW that Gerard Butler IS the sexiest man alive, but he's not famous enough to be on the cover this year. So hopefully he'll get on the inside and then once "300" "Butterfly on a Wheel" and "P.S. I Love You" are released next year, PEOPLE will FINALLY fully appreciate him. They could boost their sales if they just include him on the list, tho!!!!

Because I'm an all-American gal, I think Dale Earnhardt Jr. is HOT. And I hope PEOPLE doesnt forget Harold Dieterle, the first winner of "Top Chef." He can cook in my kitchen anytime! (Footnote: I can't be the only one who thinks "Top Chef's" Tom Colicchio is sizzlin' too, am I??)

sarah Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 03:43 PM EST

Wentworth Miller is the Sexiest man in the world

LauraM Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 03:35 PM EST

1) John Krasinski
2) Wentworth Miller
3) Christian Bale
4) Hugh Jackman
5) Henry Ian Cusick

Pslightly Psycho Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 03:32 PM EST

Borat of course!
Sexytime!

Janet Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 03:27 PM EST

Henry Ian Cusick; definitely! Who else could make such a complex character as Desmond on Lost come to life so well--and have so many fangirls drooling after him!

saynt96 Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 03:12 PM EST

Wentworth Miller- Prison BREAK(THE HOTTEST)
Tom Welling- Smallville (HOTTER)
Jensen Ackles- Supernatutal (HOT)

P Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 03:00 PM EST

ANDERSON COOPER!! Definately!

riain Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 02:53 PM EST

nathan fillion....you are so right. i can't believe i forgot him.

clive owen is a hottie, too.

laura Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 02:48 PM EST

I have two ..

Don't know his name but he is Halli Barrys boyfriend.

and my favorite is an actor from Argentina ... Facundo Arana. Google him and thank me later ;o)

news geek Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 02:46 PM EST

Matt Lauer

Brian Williams

Lester Holt

kim Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 02:45 PM EST

John Mayer
Orlando Bloom
Nathan Fillion

My guys always get overlooked, but they're all incredibly hot. Talent and looks means sexy to me.

nac Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 02:43 PM EST

ANDERSON COOPER!!!

dma69 Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 02:41 PM EST

WENTY!

'Nuff said.

JON STEWART!

bg 17 Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 02:33 PM EST

I'm actually surprised I don't see Clive Owen's name anywhere (although I admit I only browsed the comments). Usually whenever his name is mentioned the ladies swoon.

Tanya Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 02:27 PM EST

James Tupper, please.

Me Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 02:19 PM EST

Michael Slezak. Openly gay IS hot!

JakesBoy Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 02:13 PM EST

JAKE GYLLENHAAL JAKE GYLLENHAAL JAKE GYLLENHAAL!!!

If not Jake - then it HAS TO BE Justin Timberlake.

Come on, People - don't let us down!!

http://jakesboysbigbadblog.blogspot.com/

Dave Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 02:12 PM EST

Oh yeah, Neil Patrick Harris definitely. And I know this guy is waaay to low-profile for People, but what about Ryan Carnes? He hasn't done much this year, but he played Andrew's boyfriend on Desperate Housewives and was in a movie called Eating Out (no, not a porn...sickos) that I just watched last night. My boyfriend and I couldn't get over how hot he was. Memo to Hollywood: More Ryan Carnes please!

Suzanne Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 01:58 PM EST

Neil Patrick Harris is sexy. Who's this Thomas guy?

BB Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 01:55 PM EST

Neil Patrick Thomas

Openly Gay is HOT!

suzanne Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 01:54 PM EST

does it have to be an actor? I think Stewart Butterfield, the founder/head of Flickr is super attractive--picture in Newsweek was hot, hot, hot.

If it must be an entertainer, I vote for Wentworth Miller, like virtually everyone else or Hugh Jackman. Christian Bale is a handsome man, but he's a 7 if he's not smiling and a 10 if he is.

And if Stephen Colbert makes the list, can you imagine the airtime he'll give it on his show? It's worth it to list him just for that!

KTS Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 01:48 PM EST

Going outside the bounds with Ryan Gosling. Kiss he gave Rachael McAdams at MTV Movie Awards still knocks me out.

Kat Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 01:45 PM EST

I second (or fifth? or eighth?) the nominations for Henry Ian Cusick, John Krasinski, Christian Bale, and Josh Holloway!!

It better not be someone boring like Brad Pitt or George Clooney. That goes for you, too, McDreamy.

riain Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 01:44 PM EST

i'm loving christian bale, hugh jackman and wentworth miller...i also second the nominations for the supernatural boys and milo whats-it.

my pick, though? Tim Gunn. Make it work!

officerocks Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 01:34 PM EST

Gotta be John Krasinski. He's actually a pretty average-looking guy on paper, but he made that kiss scene at the end of last season HOT HOT! And that smile! WHOO!

bluenote Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 01:33 PM EST

Dominic Purcell over Wentworth Miller, but only by a hair. I love me some Wentworth, but every now and then, the serial killer stare kind of scares me. :-)

shelly Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 01:24 PM EST

Wentworth Miller is...

1. GORGEOUS
2. sweet
3. humble
4. brilliant (both his parents went to Yale, father was a Rhodes scholar, he went to and graduated from Princeton)
5. sings (sang w/the Princeton Tigertones in college)
6. kind and gentlemanly (when Jay Leno made fun of him for calling a prisoner a 'gentleman' on the Tonight Show, Went said "well, you gotta treat people w/respec")
7. gracious and appreciative of his fans
8. hot
9. hot
10. HOT!

Need I say more?? Though I'd be fine w/Hugh Jackman too, but Went really deserves it. He doesn't just look good, he is good! He's definitely the one you can not only date but also bring home to mom.

Monica Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 01:20 PM EST

PATRICK DEMPSY!!!! By far the most beautiful man on earth.

mon Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 01:17 PM EST

My vote would be for the male cast of Lost. The casting directors for that show should get a round of applause for finding the hottest men of all shades, baby. It's hard for me to pick a favorite, but Sawyer and Jin are beautiful.

Eric Dane is also a hotty.

Movie star though- hmmm, i'm guessing it will be Hugh since he's got like 30 movies out this year or the new Bond.

Ceballos Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 01:14 PM EST

Me

Jenny Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 01:09 PM EST

Jensen Ackles of "Supernatural", because "hot" doesn't even begin to describe that man.

Gale Harold, he of the departed "Vanished" (wait, the show's still on the air? whoops...). One of the most beautiful men alive.

chardonna Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 01:00 PM EST

Let's see... who has a movie or album to push this winter? Hugh Jackman? Matt Damon? Hmm. It will be interesting to see if the timing is coincidental with this year's choice as well as some of the past years.

Noe Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 12:58 PM EST

Someone needs to vote in McSteamy!!!! Good Lord that man is HOT!

nicole Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 12:54 PM EST

Howard: The readership of gossip/lifestyle magazines most likely has a 95% female and gay male readership (just guessing) and somehow I don't think that they (including myself here) are much interested in a countdown of the sexiest females alive. I think the absence of such a list is more about economics than moral outrage.

fredric Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 12:52 PM EST

It always seems to me that People chooses the Most Successful of the Passably Hot Guys rather than the Sexiest.

If JT makes the list this year, I might throw up in my mouth.

Jakeem Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 12:48 PM EST

If I was voting, the winner would be Jack Bauer himself -- Kiefer Sutherland. But I have a feeling it's going to be the McDreamy Doc! If that guess turns out to be true, I wouldn't want to be around Isaiah Washington when he finds out!

Lori Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 12:48 PM EST

Josh Holloway of course! With Daniel Craig as a close second.

Chris Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 12:48 PM EST

James Franco!!! SOO hot! And Matt Damon & Leonardo as old favorites. Seeing them together in the Departed was the perfect storm of hotness...

amanda Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 12:42 PM EST

Wentworth miller all the way! He is gorgeous and has the most beautiful face i have ever seen! the best looking guy on TV by far!

almost 40 Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 12:33 PM EST

Put both Josh Holloway and Matthew Fox on the cover. I'd be drooling forever.

Howard Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 12:31 PM EST

Yes, all the lad mags all have their countdown issues, but it seems that if it's done in a magazine outside of that realm, it would generate complaints. It's fine to have this, but what's good for the goose ...

Dee Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 12:28 PM EST

Right now I'm loving Eric Dane and Robin Thicke.

Anne Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 12:24 PM EST

James Tupper KILLS me on "Men in Trees"! I don't normally go for the outdoorsy type but he is gorgeous!! Eric Dane and Wentworth Miller are my other two. People could do an entire issue of just the three of them and I'd buy 20 copies.

anr Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 12:08 PM EST

My choice: Wentworth Miller! and for the cynics out there he wouldn't be just another white guy as he is multi-racial (he has an afircan-american father).

btw (and I can't believe that I am admitting this) but Josh Holloway does nothing for me. anyone else feel the same way?

Analia Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 12:05 PM EST

JOSH HOLLOWAY ALL THE WAY!!

Juli Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 12:03 PM EST

Josh Holloway!!!!!!!! Who else?????????
Josh, Josh, Josh!!!!!!!

Number choice: Wentworth Miller, Wentworth Miller, Wentworth Miller. call me obessed but he is by far the hottest guy on TV.

Most of the other suggestions would also be great -- Christian Bale and Hugh Jackman!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I really really hope that it isn't someone obvious like George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matthew McCaunehey -- hey their sexy but boring.

jen Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 11:56 AM EST

Oops, I DID miss the KIDDING. I was in too much of a hurry trying to read all the hotties and got tripped up on David Caruso. Glad to see he's really not in the running!

Joe Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 11:50 AM EST

Daniel Craig baby!

chelsea Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 11:34 AM EST

john krasinski needs to be on the cover and every single page of people's sexiest men

heidi Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 11:28 AM EST

Josh Holloway(sawyer)

Annie Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 11:26 AM EST

John Krasinski, John Krasinski, John Krasinski. The best looking man on TV since Mulder, and my first television crush since Scully. John Krasinski, John Krasinski, John Krasinski.

zee Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 11:26 AM EST

Miller & Purcell definitely very doable, but Christan Bale smoulders. Wht isn't this hunk a major movie star yet?

Lisa Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 11:22 AM EST

Definitely John Krasinski -- smart, funny, adorable -- definitely sexiest man alive!!!

Jessica Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 11:19 AM EST

John Krasinski, Christian Bale, Jake Gyllenhaal, Eric Szmanda, Hugh Jackman, Johnny Depp, Ewan McGregor, Gale Harold, Henry Ian Cusick, Stephen Colbert, Anthony Kiedis, Josh Radnor, and Michael C. Hall. I'm sure I'm missing some... but I hope all of those guys make the issue.

c Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 11:10 AM EST

Dr. McSteamy!!!!!!!!!

MK Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 11:08 AM EST

Billie Joe Armstrong - not kidding!

LeLe Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 11:08 AM EST

Hugh Jackman, John Stamos, George Clooney, Patrick Wilson, Jake Gylennhaal

James G Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 11:00 AM EST

Jamie Bamber...Apollo...Battlestar Galactica...nuff said.

Winn Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 10:51 AM EST

Man oh man, there are some great suggestions on this list! Henry Ian Cusick is gorgeous, with or without that accent (although it only enhances an already lovely package), Wentworth Miller and Dominic Purcell are the hottest brothers on TV (sorry Supernatural guys, but Jared Padelecki does nothing for me), Eric Bana even looked hot with a shaved head and gold teeth in Chopper, and John Krasinski definitely has edged from the adorablly cute side to the hot side with his engaging and charismatic performance. Christian Bale and Daniel Craig? Lord, get me a fan and some water...I feel faint! I think the winner will be Hugh Jackman, and I've got no problem with that! Talented, gorgeous, with three big movies this year and a stellar rep in Hollywood as someone everybody likes...what's not to love? But I've got to give it up to theotter for sharing my own personal crush, David Tennant. While not conventionally handsome, he has a mesmerizing sexiness that is impossible to resist. Watch him on "Dr. Who", the great miniseries "Viva Blackpool" or the recent Masterpiece Theatre production of "Casanova" (also featuring a magnificent Peter O'Toole) and I dare you not to fall in love!

Debbie Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 10:45 AM EST

obviously someone didn't see the big "KIDDING!" after David Caruso

Jim Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 10:43 AM EST

The women in the SI swimsuit issue are on a beach in very skimpy bikinis.
The men in People are mostly clothed and just show their faces.
Whose idea is that?
There are hunkier guys on the list, but for me the sexiest man this year is John Krasinski.

Kari Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 10:43 AM EST

Christian Bale!! He was sexy as a dancing paperboy, a superhero, and a magician. He has it all. Honorable mention-John Krasinski

Lesha Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 10:40 AM EST

I LOVE Cash in the Attic and Mr. Appleton is quite yummy. What would I do without BBC-A?

Paul Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 10:30 AM EST

Definitely Wentworth Miller. What a hottie!

jen Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 10:29 AM EST

David Caruso, seriously? Yuck. I take James Tupper the Men in trees guy. He's so hot....and if I had to pick a guy not on this list, I recruit Eric Bana. So hot and so very talented!!!!

Tom Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 10:28 AM EST

Alistair Appleton!!!! Yes! Thank you for giving props where it is due. He is the only reason to watch Cash in the Attic, such a hottie and knows how to dress to boot, no wonder he is gay. If only I could snag a man like that. Thank you Annie!

Adrienne Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 10:23 AM EST

Howard -- Doesn't Maxim or one of those magazines have a Sexiest Woman Alive issue? I thought I heard something about Scarlett Johanssen being picked for that. As far as the SI Swimsuit issue... let's not even go there. Women are objectified a lot more often than men.

Allen Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 10:19 AM EST

Does it matter? It's probably some white guy I'm sure.

Kathy Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 10:18 AM EST

Winner: Wentworth Miller
Runner-up: Wentworth Miller
Honorary Mention: Wentworth Miller

Howard Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 10:11 AM EST

OK, time for me to open a can of worms. How come it's OK for People to have a Sexiest Man Alive issue, but Holy Hell would be raised if a Sexiest Woman issue was done (or, for one that already exists, the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue)? I'm not saying that this should be discontinued; just that if you're going to objectify us from time to time, you can't give us grief for objectifying you.

G Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 10:10 AM EST

Hello? Where's Sawyer on this list?!

G Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 10:09 AM EST

Hello? Where's Sawyer on this list?!

Heather Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 10:08 AM EST

Hugh Jackman and Jensen Ackles definitely. Hugh for that grin and Jensen for the grin and the freckles.

riso Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 10:07 AM EST

Must be Wentworth Miller. he's cool from 'prison break' till now

Lucy Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 10:05 AM EST

All about John Krasinski. Would throw Ethan Hawke on that pile. Jeremy Piven gets a shove. David Wright is a big yeah! Eric Dane would be a yes as well.

aramis Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 09:53 AM EST

Rita - I was so hoping there was a smart on in here...a proud member of TEAMJackman. Hugh Jackman...*le sigh*

Always a fave.

This year I found the likes of the following, particularly fetching...

-Wentworth Miller (of course!)
-Justin Timberlake (like, duh!)
-Daniel Craig (sexiest Bond, ever...PERIOD)
-Milo Ventimiglia (Heroes)
-And the dude who plays his flying brother...
-Aaron Eckhart (Thank You For Smoking)
-Michael C. Hall (Dexter...scary, but sexy)
-Gale Harold (Vanished)
-All the sons on "Brothers & Sisters"
-Brandon Routh (c'mon, I mean, he was SUPERMAN!)
-George Clooney (will probably be on that list when he turns 112)
-Alec Baldwin ("Five inches, but it's thick.")
-Eric Dane (WAY better than McDreamy)

I could go on forever, really...

silv Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 09:52 AM EST

George Clooney is my one & only; if Brad Pitt can get it twice then so should he. My runners up: Clive Owen & Christian Bale. Of course it'll be someone who's got something to promote...

Patti Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 09:48 AM EST

Steve Carell or Stephen Colbert? Funny is sexy!

Denise Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 09:41 AM EST

Your third suggestion's name is Dominic Purcell, and man oh man is he one masterpiece of a man!

theotter Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 09:35 AM EST

I second the John Krasinski nomination! May I also put forward, for everyone's consideration, Britain's David Tennant (the most recent Doctor Who)?

RitaM6000 Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 09:25 AM EST

This is Hugh Jackman's year (and I'm taking this contest way too seriously). Team Jackman!

Laurie Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 09:10 AM EST

I love Allistair!! He is the only real reason to watch that show unless you love converting English pounds to dollars for fun.

newbie Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 08:37 AM EST

It will probably be John Stamos or the perpetually over-hyped McDreamy (Perhaps Sexiest Cast would be better to get neglected McVet, McSteamy, Burke,etc in the mix). However, my gut reaction when I read the question was that they are going to go back to Sexiest Couple Alive for Brad and Angelina (like they had done with Richard Gere and Cindy Crawford).

Mianne Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 08:36 AM EST

Henry Ian Cusick, but of course.

To know him is to love him...with or without the accent, sistah!

For all of us at The Henry Ian Cusick Group, Ian most definitely IS The Sexiest Man Alive!!

K Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 08:28 AM EST

I'm so happy that Wentworth made the list. Definitely Wentowrth. I would also put up Jensen Ackles from "Supernatural". Very very hot.

Gretchen Weiners Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 08:18 AM EST

Tyra Banks... lol. I think it will be Patrick Dempsey. Not my first choice, but a good one. I'd vote for Wentworth Miller or his doppleganger, Chaning Tatum.

caramia Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 08:01 AM EST

Eric Dane, without a doubt. He's the only guy that can make Patrick Dempsey homely just by standing next to him.

Vance Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 07:39 AM EST

OMG. thats the ONLY reason why I watch Cash in the Attic!!!

Kath Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 07:18 AM EST

JOHN KRASINSKI!! I love that he made your initial list :)

Ok, as much as I love John I could see he might not be universally sexy, so I guess I would go for WENTWORTH MILLER.

Murphy Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 07:17 AM EST

Justin Timberlake that is :)

Murphy Mon, Nov 13, 2006 at 07:16 AM EST

If JT doesn't win there is something wrong in the world...
