Here are some of our favorite crime-fighting boys -- hotties who make a living chasing down the bad guys on some of our favorite TV shows (including CSI, Cold Case, Medium, Without a Trace, Law & Order, 24 and Bones). After you review their case files, tell us in the poll at the end of the page: Which of these guys would you most like to pat you down?
Enrique Murciano
NAME: Enrique Murciano

CHARACTER: Special Agent Danny Taylor

SHOW: "Without a Trace"

D.O.B.: 07/09/73

HEIGHT: 6'1"

NOTES: Enrique had a small role (as Ruiz) in Black Hawk Down. On that set, he met producer Jerry Bruckheimer, which ultimately led to winning his role in "Without a Trace."

Michael Weatherly
NAME: Michael Weatherly

CHARACTER: Special Agent Anthony (Tony) DiNozzo

SHOW: "NCIS"

HEIGHT: 6'2"

D.O.B.: 07/08/68

NOTES: Michael was once engaged to his former "James Cameron's Dark Angel" co-star, Jessica Alba... even though she was 13 years his junior. In a 2006 episode of NCIS, there's a little inside joke when his character scoffs, "I have a better chance at hooking up with Jessica Alba than these guys have at infiltrating Sealift."

SHOW: "24"

D.O.B.: 12/21/66

HEIGHT: 5'9-1/2"

David Cubitt
NAME: David Cubitt

CHARACTER: Det. Lee Scanlon

SHOW: "Medium"

D.O.B.: 03/18/65

CHARACTER: Charlie Eppes

SHOW: "Numb3rs"

D.O.B.: 05/15/78

HEIGHT: 5'6-1/2"

Anthony Michael Hall
NAME: Anthony Michael Hall

CHARACTER: John Smith

SHOW: "The Dead Zone"

D.O.B.: 04/14/68

HEIGHT: 6'2"

NOTES: Who could forget "The Geek"? Back when Michael was scrawny, he starred in a string of hits from 1983-1985: (National Lampoon's) Vacation, Sixteen Candles, The Breakfast Club & Weird Science. Now he's all big and buff, and plays a psychic dreamed up by Stephen King.

Hill Harper
NAME: Hill Harper

CHARACTER: Dr. Sheldon Hawkes

SHOW: "CSI: New York"

D.O.B.: 05/17/66

HEIGHT: 5'8"
