TV Hottie: Dave Annable

The moment you see this guy on the hit-series Brothers and Sisters, you’d definitely think you’ve seen him somewhere before. This formerly-unknown actor sure has a familiar face – thanks numerous TV commercials he has starred in (watch some of them after the jump). Remember that Bad Cheetah ad for Mountain Dew? If you’re not from the Philippines and you have seen the original ad, then you would notice that the cyclist who got the can out from the cheetah’s mouth is a hottie – yes, that’s him!

This 27-year old (turning 28 in Sept.15) Dave Annable began his career in TV commercials and later got roles in unsuccessful TV series, some of which did not even make it to a pilot airing. He eventually landed a lead role in the now-defunct Reunion television series. He got his biggest break when he was casted as one of the main cast members of ABC’s hit TV show, Brothers and Sisters. It is a bit interesting to note that this guy still got noticed in this series considering the fact that the show is composed of a stellar cast. How can one expect an ultimate nobody to rise above them all: Calista Flockhart (from Ally McBeal), Sally Field (uhm, too many items on her filmography), Matthew Rhys (Welsh Actor, Love and Other Disasters), Balthazar Getty (another hottie – Alias, Charmed), Rachel Griffiths (Six Feet Under)?

Thanks to a great script and storyline, where Dave plays an Afghanistan-veteran turned druggie turned renewed man turned… (erm, let’s not go there, spoilers!), Dave finally got noticed and was well-received by critics. He also appears first in the opening credits of Brothers and Sisters (arranged alphabetically).

Well, with great reviews, a great body and good looks, this guy is definitely a TV hottie. Oh and did we mention that he also did a commercial for Abercrombie and Fitch? Video after the jump.
