Let's Learn About The Top Ten Fictional Television Characters Kate Wishes Were Her Boyfriend!
by Kate Comer, the 1800's Jumper
These are people who I've spent more time imagining I would date then any boys I know in person. I've had pretty intense feelings for them, so intense that I can't stand when these guys have girlfriends on their show because when they're single it means it's still possible for me to date them. God forbid one of them were to get married.
1. Scott Barringer
Scott is a student at Horizon, a school for troubled kids that serves as an alternative for Juvie or a mental hospital. Scott was a quarterback on his high school football team who got into drugs as a way to escape the emotional turmoil caused by his sexually abusive Stepmother. He is moody, snobby, and initially thinks he’s better than the other kids at Horizon. At first, he's into the rich anorexic/cutter girl, until he breaks up with her for the more understanding runaway/prostitute. I originally fantasized about being an ecstasy addicted raver girl who somehow ends up being Scott's girlf, I can't remember how it would happen, though. I think now I would be the overweight girl…who maybe like, tried to kill herself or something, who he never would have spoken to outside of this situation, but really connects/falls in love with. There's no dating allowed at Horizon, so we would have to sneak away to make out. Which is really hott.
2. Seth Cohen
You only have to watch this guy in action once to understand his universal appeal. Sometimes he is a little too self-involved for me, but he seems to come through when it really counts. Mostly, I think I would enjoy engaging in witty banter with him. But, I would also like to run my hands through his jewfro while we kiss and watch X2: X-Men United. I would move from NYC to Newport beach, and this new hot, funny girl who meets Seth in comic book club, and is chosen over Summer by Seth. But, I would have a secret past that included being way overweight, and now I take diet pills and exercise too much. Summer figures it out, and tells Seth, and he doesn't believe her until he sees the pills in my bag. So, he confronts me saying I'm beautiful no matter what, and I would react by telling him he never even would have even looked at me the way I was before, and I can never go back to it. You know, mild O.C. stuff.
3. Bill Haverchuck
In 11th grade I wanted to be his girlfriend SO BAD. He likes so many things that I like too! Such as, Welcome Back Kotter. That is my only example. He did things every episode that made me fall in love with him a little more, including dancing to disco and dressing as The Bionic Woman for Halloween. I would be this new girl at school, kind of attractive, and possibly a mathlete. I would get asked out by the mega-sexy Daniel but refuse him, and shock all by aggressively pursuing Bill and eventually becoming his girlfriend. Thus, making out with him, because he deserves it more than most anyone.
4. Dan Rydell
Dan is the co-anchor of Sports Night, the third most watched sports program on TV. He hates soccer, cannot figure out what the Sport of Kings is, and completely owns my heart. He is charming without being an asshole, the type of guy who knows everyone’s name on your floor. He is a genuinely nice, funny, bad boyish guy, but tends to get overshadowed by uber cracker, Casey McCall. Dan is probably my most quotable tv boyfriend, I tend to use, "I am undergoing some sort of nervous collapse" and "Nutty nut-girl who’s nuts." quite a bit. Also, if you are temporarily blinded, and wearing ridiculous sunglasses, he will make the most of it by making you think the building is on fire. I would be this new intern at CSC, who isn't even into sports, but needed a production internship. We would flirt a lot. Dan's good at flirting. We would have a long term relationship, and I would not be dumb enough to choose my ex husband over him.
5. Shawn Hunter
Shawn has great hair, grew up in a trailer park, wears a leather jacket and writes brilliant poetry. He has a seriously shakey family situation, basically both parents tend to constantly run out on him. I've had the hots for him for upwards of 8 years. Every time I see him I fall in love all over again. I didn't have to fantasize too much about this one, cause he had a black girlfriend on the show. I could have played her much better, and if I had a time machine, I would make sure that happened.
6. Steven Hyde
Hyde is from the 70s. He's kind of a jerk. I don't even like him much anymore now that he's in love with Jackie. But, I had a serious thing for him freshman year of college. He also has parents who ditch him constantly. But, he's funny, and very sexy, and totally free.
I guess these guys have a running theme which makes me relate to them. They all tend to have pretty intense parent issues (with the exception of Cohen), which I can relate to. Also, they're all people who can't quite seem to find where they fit. So, I guess I feel like if they were real we could fit together.
Runner Up boyfriends include: Brandon Walsh, Clark Kent, and Jake from Animorphs (which is also a series of books.)
