The 8 Most Oversexed TV Characters of the Last Decade

Kate Roberts DiMera, Days of Our Lives

Played By: Lauren Koslow (From 1993 - 1995, she was played by Deborah Adair)

If you're not familiar with soap operas, sit back and relax while your mind is blown by the romantic entanglements of Kate Roberts DiMera. A former high-priced call girl who was once believed to be dead for an entire year, Kate has been married four times, although one of her unions was deemed invalid when the ex, who was also believed to be dead, reappeared. (Luckily, he was later killed under mysterious circumstances.) Kate once paid an ex-porn star $5 million to marry one of her six children, and among her romances, Kate has dated a 25-year-old, an Italian mob boss (whom her son saw her having sex with), and a former pimp who she seduced for money. Also, Kate wears monogrammed bras.

Barney Stinson, How I Met Your Mother

Played By: Neil Patrick Harris

The most popular character on CBS's How I Met Your Mother, Barney Stinson is a witty womanizer with a comprehensive understanding of human behavior. What he lacks in morals, Barney makes up for with his Bro Code, an extensive set of rules for dating women (which became a New York Times best-selling book last year) including "waiting four days instead of three" to call a girl, a method Barney credits to Jesus. Barney has slept with over 200 women in his life, a goal that he set for himself in the seventh grade when a classmate claimed to have slept with 100. The series explains the origins of Barney's promiscuity via his loose mother and absent father whom he never knew (although Barney claims his true father is Bob Barker).

Edie Britt, Desperate Housewives

Played By: Nicollette Sheridan

Known as the slut of Wisteria Lane, Edie had relationships with nearly every one of her neighbor's ex-husbands during her five-season stay, including Gabrielle's ex Carlos (Ricardo Antonio Chavira) and Susan's exes Mike (James Denton) and Karl (Richard Burgi). Edie's dalliances with her friends' ex-husbands have led to a series of physical cat fights that landed her in the hospital and threatened to put her in jail, because in order to hold onto a man, Edie was not above revenge relationships, scantily-clad car washes, and staging fake pregnancies and suicides. In Season 5, it was hinted that Edie's promiscuity was born when her ex-husband Umberto revealed that he was gay. Feeling insecure about herself, Edie turned to the neighborhood handy man and began a sexual streak that would last until her untimely death by electrocution.
