The 8 Most Oversexed TV Characters of the Last Decade
Call them sluts, tramps, sexually empowered, "in touch with themselves," or whatever your bedroom religion permits. Still, it can't be denied that the past decade has bred a new kind of television floozy, thanks in part to Sex and the City gently escorting us into the 2000's with its bold bedroom dialogue. After the jump, Movieline recalls the 8 best characters who overindulged in the boudoir.
Hank Moody, Californication
Played By: David Duchovny
A self-loathing writer, Hank isn't addicted to sex as much as he just loves women of all race, religion and creed, and though he's spent most of the series in a relationship with the mother (Natasha McElhone) of his adored daughter Becca (Madeleine Martin), he's still found the time to dabble on the side. Hank has some morals -- he won't sleep with an underage girl (as long as he knows that she's underage), he will punch out anyone harassing a woman in his company, and he will offer up his own body to a woman just so that she won't sleep with someone who doesn't appreciate her. That being said, his conquests do include a bikini-ed thief whose name he does not know, student/strippers, and the mothers of his daughter's friends (plus, he was once punched in the face during the act).
Samantha Jones, Sex and the City
Played By: Kim Cattrall
The most sexually active of New York City's most famous foursome, Samantha is a self-proclaimed "try-sexual" who will attempt anything at least once and pretty much has over the course of the show, which includes bedding a 72-year-old millionaire, sleeping with Charlotte's brother, going lesbian, and throwing her boyfriend a birthday ménage à trois. Samantha believes that she has had hundreds of "soul mates," coined the phrase "funky spunk" and is outspoken about the benefits of regular female masturbation. She is a loyal friend who shies away from committed relationships, and the only time Samantha ever lost her sex drive was during chemotherapy treatments -- even then, her libido returned in a throbbing way on the big screen.
Charlie Harper, Two and a Half Men
Played By: Charlie Sheen
Two and a Half Men creator Chuck Lorre famously based boozing womanizer Charlie Harper on Charlie Sheen. himself The fictional Charlie relies on a steady stream of one-night stands, booty calls, and prostitutes to keep his bed warm. He's courted a few women longer than one night and even proposed to a few, but his narcissistic ways usually win out -- the Malibu bachelor even forced his sick brother Alan (Jon Cryer) to go on a date just so that he could use the house for revenge sex. Still, Fictional Charlie's promiscuous ways were explained away as a feeling of inadequacy, spurred when his mother told him that she thought he was going to be a girl since the sonogram showed no signs of a penis.
Comments
As the longest running character on the list, Charlie Hooper sure has spent the majority of his tv time being a lothario, but to be fair, he's been engaged for 2 seasons to same woman and not slept with anyone but her. Great list though; job well done.
/splits hairs
I know everyone wants to add their two cents to lists, but, seriously:
Brian Kinney
I mean, he rivals Blanche for most oversexed character of all time!
Don Draper? You might have heard they named a sexual alert level after him.
They should add Tiger Woods to this list.
Oh wait, this is a list of of oversexed soapstars...I thought it was sportstars...my bad
JOEY TRIBBIANI!! "FRIENDS." DUH! The "JOEY" spin-off was practically about Joey boning half of Los Angeles.
Quagmire (Family Guy) has them all beat.
Um, how can you make a list about this sort of thing and not include Dr. Christian Troy from Nip/Tuck... The first 2 seasons of the show he literally bangs every woman on the screen, and even though he slows down a little after that, he still sleeps with more than enough women to get him a spot on this list.
QUAGMIRE!!!!!!!!!!
Dreading the multi-pages - tell me #1 is Quagmire?
I agree about Brian Kinney. He is a legend.
The entire cast of Melrose Place.
How about Glenn Quagmire from Family Guy? I know he's animated but he probably has most of that list beat 😛
2 words "Brian Kinney".
OK this looks like fun dude.

No Brian Kinney? I'm stunned! He's got Charlie Harper, Don Draper, or any of those guys beat in a New York minute! I can't believe you'd exclude him!
No Brian Kinney? You've got to be kidding me! The character who, as he stated himself, "redefined promiscuity" is left out? Ridiculous. Sure, he wasn't the heartless bastard he claimed to be, but he is definitely one of the most promiscuous characters of all time. This should be the most promiscuous straight characters of the last decade.
Brian Kinney was the first one who popped into my head and I was so disappointed when he wasn't mentioned! How can you forget about him?!?
Where is Christian Troy? Alan Shore? Brian Kinney? Cmon...
QUAGMIRE BEATS EVERY1 HERE EXCEPT SAMANTHA JONES I THINK THEY TIE BUT THATS MY OPINION
Good list, but where is Sophia bush as Brooke Davis from One Tree Hill?
I TOTALLY agree, Paul. I read the entire list hoping to see Christian's name on it, and yet, it was absent. This is a man who has had more threesomes than the law should allow, has been caught having sex by someone who joined in on the sex, never stops screwing for any interruption, and even converted a lesbian. Who on television, besides Samantha Jones, has had more sex than Dr. Christian Troy? NO ONE!!
I agree with all the comments about Brian Kinney and Christian Troy.
In love with Brian Kinney, which also happens to be the name of my plastic surgeon in Los Angeles, love them both!!
