6 Places You've Seen This Is Us Star Justin Hartley

In 2006, Hartley starred in the pilot for The WB's Aquaman TV series. Unfortunately, it was the year the The UPN and The WB merged into The CW, and the newly formed network opted not to go forward with the show, robbing us of hundred of hours of chiseled abs.

Then in 2012, he went back to The CW for a role opposite Mamie Gummer in the short-lived medical series Emily Owens M.D. Will still miss you, Will Collins.

Despite all his primetime roles, some people will forever see Hartley as a soap star. He played Nicholas Foxworth Crane on Passions for nearly a decade and Adam Newman/Gabriel Bingham on The Young and the Restless for years.

Finally, right before This Is Us, Hartley appeared on Mistresses as Scott Trosman, the world's sexiest plastic surgeon.
