THE BEST.

hotness.

i've been watching Sports Night recently. it's really terrific. i love TV sometimes. people who say they don't are either lying or annoying. anyway, the point of this is NOT TV, it is attractive males. the always amazing & beautiful Peter Krause stars, but his partner on the show, played by Josh Charles, is equally hot. really really hot.

kind of old fashioned-slash-weird hotness. only the best kind.
