The Upfronts left us with some pretty amazing shows to look forward to this fall (and a slew of beautiful faces to get ready for). Myself and Editor Sharon Tharp have decided to round up the top 10 hottest actors to keep an eye on once the new shows premiere. It's a mix of new and old faces, some of which are taking on lead roles for the very first time.
Upfronts: Fall 2012's Five Hottest Timeslots
Why Upfronts Don't Matter
So here are our choices! It shouldn't be hard to figure out why some of these entertainers are ridiculously hot but we decided to explain it for you anyway!
Robert Buckley
Show/Network: 666 Park Avenue (ABC)
Where You Know Him From: Rob was most recently making us swoon as a series regular on One Tree Hill where he played Clay, Nathan's agent.
Why He's Hot: Not only is Rob hilarious on (and off) camera, but he's just so damn charming. His hot bod also helps. –Sharon Tharp
Stephen Amell
Show/Network:
Where You Know Him From: The Vampire Diaries and 90210 to New Girl and
Why He's Hot: Not many men can pull off playing the Green Arrow, but with that body and those amazing blue eyes, he wins our vote. –Sharon Tharp
Sophia Bush
Show/Network: Partners (CBS)
Where You Know Her From: Sophia was on One Tree Hill for nine years (NINE!) as Brooke Davis, one of TV's most beloved characters.

Why She's Hot: Sophia is smart and sexy, which is the perfect combination if you ask us. –Sharon Tharp
Matt Lauria
Show/Network: Gilded Lilys (ABC)
Where You Know Him From: Matt was most recently seen on the now-canceled drama, The Chicago Code, but we know him best as loveable Luke Cafferty on Friday Night Lights.
Why He's Hot: We fell in love with Matt's Southern accent first and even if it's not real, his cute face and adorability makes up for it. – Sharon Tharp
Taylor Kinney
Show/Network: Chicago Fire (NBC)
Where You Know Him From: Taylor played hot Uncle Mason on The Vampire Diaries. Oh, and he dated Lady Gaga. Yeah, that guy!
Why He's Hot: I mean, have you seen him shirtless? – Sharon Tharp
Dave Annable
Show/Network: 666 Park Avenue (ABC)
Where You Know Him From: Dave played Justin Walker on Brothers & Sisters and Aaron Lewis on the short-lived Reunion.
Why He's Hot: Have you taken a glance at the actor? Swoon. He’s rugged and has been severely missed since his Walker days. His face may be familiar but with now a lead role he’s bound to become a household name too. Finally, he’s coming back to his Sunday slot. – Stephanie Webber
Hayden Panettiere
Show/Network: Nashville (ABC)
Where You Know Her From: She played Claire Bennet in Heroes.
Why She's Hot: Have you seen her play tennis in only a bikini? It’s undeniable that people find this actress attractive. Going head to head with Friday Night Lights alum Connie Britton will be difficult, but the blonde will sure get her turn in the spotlight during the ABC drama. –Stephanie Webber
Chris Messina
Show/Network: The Mindy Project (FOX)
Where You Know Him From: He played Chris Sanchez Damages.
Why He's Hot: Have you checked out the Mindy Project trailer? Clearly this guy is going to end up with Mindy making him the guy to watch every week on the new FOX series. Look how charming and adorable and hot he is. Not to mention he plays a doctor in this one. At 38, women of all age groups will be caught up with Messina come the fall. –Stephanie Webber
Jessica Lucas
Show/Network: The Cult (The CW)
Where You Know Her From: She’s played numerous roles on shows like 90210, Melrose Place and Life As We Know It.
Why She's Hot: Let’s be honest. Taking on a lead role opposite Vampire Diaries actor Matt Davis will do wonders for her. She’s a knockout and will definitely be noticed come 2013. Her first big breakout that showed how gorgeous she really is started in 2004 with Life As We Know It. Having The Cult that has potential to go past one year definitely lands her as one of our hottest newcomers. –Stephanie Webber
Jesse Bradford
Show/Network: Guys with Kids (NBC)
Where You Know Him From: He’s played memorable roles on film like Bring It On, Swimfan.
Why He's Hot: He may not be pining for Kirsten Dunst’s attention or even having sex in a pool, but even this actor has the potential to make taking care of a baby hot. He’s hot in the nontraditional way and sort of reminds us of Jake Johnson on New Girl. –Stephanie Webber
