Crush Alert System raised to code red

I spent today doing the most patriotic thing I could think of - watching both seasons of Sleeper Cell and rooting for the terrorists.

This is largely due to my long-standing crush on Oded Fehr.













Besides being a stone cold fox, Oded Fehr is one of those Safely Brown actors of indeterminate ethnicity, so he's often cast as The Arab Guy. This has a certain twisted irony since he's actually from Israel. Even less logical, he was inexplicably Hispanic in two of the Resident Evil movies - then again, he was also beefed up, kicking ass and cracking wise, so who am I to complain? He also reminds me of someone I have a crush on in real life, which is a little weird, but gets me one step closer to finalizing casting for the movie of my life.

Being that this is Showtime, the harrowing tale of an undercover cop infiltrating an Islamic sleeper cell in Los Angeles obviously requires lots of graphic sex and nudity. What's the point of being allowed to show tits and not doing it at every opportunity? So I was a little disappointed that pretty much everyone gets laid at some point (including someone's mom), except for Oded Fehr's character. They even give him a hot wife and still no action. So wrong. And then finally halfway through Season 2, he gets a few nude scenes...except that it involves torture and something sharp being shoved up somewhere very unpleasant. But, hey, I'll take what I can get. Thanks, homeland security.
