Stuff Magazine's wimpiest men on TV

by Joel Keller, posted Mar 20th 2007 4:24PM

Ryan Seacrest... WimpFunny little article on Stuff magazine's website; they list the five wimpiest men on TV. Yes, I said "wimpiest," a term that people probably haven't heard since their local Morning Zoo made fun of the competing radio station or Hefty last advertised its tough garbage bags. But it's an apt word to describe the fellas on this list; Mikey from American Chopper is the most manly of the five (he beat out Butters from South Park by a nose), and that's only because he hangs out in a bike shop all day.

Of course, if you're going to limit yourself to five wimps and include both Ryan Seacrest and Carson Daly, then you're not thinking hard enough. Both those guys are already in the Metrosexual Hall of Fame, so to consider them among the nominees yet again seems to be redundant to me. Where is Kirk from Gilmore Girls? Dr. Chase from House? J.D. from Scrubs? George O'Malley from Grey's Anatomy (hmm ... I sense a trend)? If you're going to mention a cartoon character, then other fictional wimps shouldn't be off-limits. Can you folks name more TV wimps? Let me know in the comments.

Speaking of Food Network guys, the wimpiest is the guy from Good Eats, Alton Brown. He doesn't stand up to his "sister"' his only protest is an "Oh, bother", and he thinks by not combing his hair, he is covering up how thin he's getting on top. I like some of his cooking techniques, and the history and chemistry of food is interesting, but the skit stuff is too thin to be funny, and he can be rather stuffy about his way being the best.

It has to be that idiot Howard Stern the jerk who took Anna Nicole Smith to somewhere he thought would keep the U.S. from keeping her baby and her money!

I agree with Scotty in that Butters from South Park isn't a wimp. He's just an innocent kid who doesn't always understand what's going on around him since no one takes the time to explain things to him. And he HAS gotten Cartman back before!

What about Mr. Burns' closeted little assistant? on the Simpsons.

I do have to say that the most current wimp is Barbara Walters the way she is getting led around on a leash by that fat bull Rosie O'dumpy on the View!!
