46 TV Boyfriends to Netflix and Chill With All Summer
You can't always count on boys, but you can always rely on Netflix. So if you're rolling solo this summer, don't worry — we have plenty of hot guys on binge-worthy TV shows for you to fall in love with. Ranging from misunderstood sweethearts to semiproblematic bad boys, these are some of the most crush-inducing dudes that you can watch on Netflix from June through August.
Tommy Shelby — Peaky Blinders
If tortured-yet-sexy dudes are your thing, then you're going to love Prohibition-era drama Peaky Blinders. Though Tom Hardy makes an appearance in season two, it's Tommy Shelby (played by Cillian Murphy) who will make it impossible to stop watching.
Jonathan and Drew Scott — Property Brothers
If you don't know why we're so obsessed with the Property Brothers, Jonathan and Drew Scott, then do yourself and give their show a chance. You'll learn something and walk away with two new crushes.
Special Agent Fox Mulder — The X-Files
The X-Files may have just returned to regular television screens, but old-school Mulder is the Netflix boyfriend of your '90s dreams. The original seasons make excellent marathon material, so clear your weekend plans!
Neal Caffrey — White Collar
Well-fitted suits, a charismatic personality, and actor Matt Bomer's striking good looks are all White Collar's Neal Caffrey needs to steal your heart — and convince you to binge all six seasons.
Dev Shah — Master of None
As he navigates the intricacies of modern romance, main character Dev Shah proves charming, relatable, and oh so boyfriendable. If you're single this summer, this show is the perfect pick for you — not only because Dev is adorable, but also because it sheds brutally honest light on dating and relationships.
DCI John Luther — Luther
Luther's grizzly, conflicted namesake character, John Luther, earned Idris Elba one of his well-deserved SAG Awards — and a mere one episode in, you'll understand why. Get ready to meet your next TV show addiction.
Jack, Sawyer, Jin, Desmond, Boone, and/or Sayid — LOST
Trust us on this: if you were to become stranded on an isolated island, you'd want to be there with the multitude of gorgeous men from LOST. (But it's a lot better to watch them from the safety of your couch!)
Phillip Kopus — The Red Road
There's not much to say about this show's Netflix boyfriend potential except that Jason Momoa stars in it as Phillip Kopus. There are no words.
Paul Spector — The Fall
Let's make one thing clear before recommending this show: it is OK to be attracted to Jamie Dornan, even when he's playing a brutal murderer. You're not the first and won't be the last to feel that way while watching The Fall, so why not embrace your dark side over the next few months and press "play"?
Glenn Rhee, Rick Grimes, and/or Daryl Dixon — The Walking Dead
If you want assurance that your next heartthrob could hold his own in pretty much any scenario, just take your pick from one of The Walking Dead's main men — if they can fend off countless walkers, they've earned your crush.
Oliver Queen — Arrow
If you're into the billionaire-playboy-philanthropist-vigilante thing, then Ollie Queen (AKA Green Arrow) is your perfect Netflix boyfriend. Equal parts complex and lovable, you can check out this heroic hottie by watching the three seasons of Arrow available on Netflix.
Joe MacMillan — Halt and Catch Fire
Though Pushing Daisies is no longer available for Netflix streaming, you can get your daily dose of Lee Pace on the tech boom drama Halt and Catch Fire. Fans of complex guys and dramatic storylines will be instantly hooked on main character Joe MacMillan!
Sherlock Holmes and/or John Watson — Sherlock
There's nothing elementary about the gorgeous main characters from Sherlock (portrayed by Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman), and it certainly won't take much investigating for you to see why.
Jesse Pinkman — Breaking Bad
Blue-eyed troublemaker Jesse Pinkman is one of many reasons to binge Breaking Bad, so if you haven't caught the bug yet (or just want to begin your addiction all over again) you should start watching.
Andy Dwyer — Parks and Recreation
Chris Pratt may be a massive superstar now, but only a few years ago he was simply dorky, adorable Andy Dwyer on Parks and Recreation. Find out why everybody fell in love with him by watching his silly antics on the show!
Jess Mariano, Dean Forester, Luke Danes, Logan Huntzberger, Tristan Dugray, and/or Christopher Hayden — Gilmore Girls
In Stars Hollow, CT, there are simply too many potential boyfriends to choose from. (Just ask Lorelai and Rory Gilmore!) If you haven't yet powered through the soon-to-be-rebooted TV series, do yourself a favor and dive in this summer.
Coach, Schmidt, Nick, and/or Winston — New Girl
How did one girl get lucky enough to live with not one, but four ridiculously attractive and hilarious men? We don't know, but watching New Girl might be the fastest way to learn.
Jim Halpert — The Office
Even if you've never watched The Office, you've undoubtedly heard people reference Jim and Pam's love story. That's because Jim Halpert is, without a doubt, one of the best boyfriends ever to grace a TV screen. Don't say we didn't warn you about falling in love with a fictional character, OK?
Sam and Dean Winchester — Supernatural
Sometimes when you're distracted by all of Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki's adorable antics, the fact that they've got 10 streamable seasons of their own show can slip the mind! (You're welcome for the reminder.)
Ash — Black Mirror
There are a few crush-worthy dudes on Black Mirror thanks to its storyline-per-episode structure, but Domhnall Gleeson's Ash will simultaneously break your heart and make you fall head over heels. Catch his character in the first episode of season two, "Be Right Back."
Don Draper — Mad Men
It's hard to get more classically handsome than Jon Hamm's Don Draper, and despite his troublesome treatment of the women everyone in his life, you'll crush on him . . . hard. Pour yourself an old fashioned and enjoy!
Damon and Stefan Salvatore — The Vampire Diaries
If you begin marathoning The Vampire Diaries and simply can't decide which cutie to crush on, just take our quiz to see which one would make your idea boyfriend — there's literally no disappointing result.
JD, Turk, and/or Dr. Cox — Scrubs
When you think about shows featuring hot guys, Scrubs might not be the first to come to mind . . . but there's something irresistable about the cast of funny-cute doctors!
Tim Riggins — Friday Night Lights
Ah, Tim Riggins. There's no way to describe the Friday Night Lights football star better than "sexy bad-boy-but-also-sweet," so we won't even try. Just prepare to devote the next few weekends of your life to this show, because you won't want to stop once you start.
John Rayburn — Bloodline
We could watch Kyle Chandler staring at a wall and still be entertained, so the fact that this thriller about a shocking death that rocks a family in Key West is tense and incredibly well-acted is just the cherry on top.
