* Simon Basset and Anthony Bridgerton in ''Series/{{Bridgerton}}'' Season 1 often appear shirtless, particularly in the sparring and the sex scenes.

** Samuel Anders is Estrogen Brigade Bait personified. He is naked in goo in "The Plan!" With hair.

* ''Series/{{Dollhouse}}'' has Paul Ballard, played by ''Series/{{Battlestar Galactica|2003}}'''s Tahmoh Penikett, who was introduced boxing, shirtless, and wearing low, ''low''-riding pants. From there, he went on to take his shirt off in pretty much every other episode.

* ''Series/KamenRiderDouble'' has Kirihiko, who appears nude (in side/behind views) on three occasions. For this reason his [[FanNickname Fan Nicknames]] in Japan are "Shirihiko" or "Ketsuhiko" -- ''shiri'' and ''ketsu'' both being slang for butt.

%%* Mitchell, from ''Series/BeingHuman''. Sexy Irish vampire bad guy turned atoner? Yes, please!

* ''Series/BloodTies'' had Henry Fitzroy. Not only is he a bishonen vampire with sexy curly hair and a tragic romantic past, but he spent large quantities of the story with his shirt off or ripped to shreds, lounging/writhing around in bed (again shirtless). He's also artistic, multitalented, superstrong, cute, chivalrous, and has a lot of funny stories about his past. All that, and he can give women orgasms with his bite.

** Ramsay Bolton is an evil one, yes, but he's seen shirtless a couple of times and he's naked during his scene with Myranda in 'Kill the Boy'.

** Keegan Allen portraying Toby Cavanaugh in particular. Shirtless.

* Simon Basset and Anthony Bridgerton in ''Series/Bridgerton'' Season 1 often appear shirtless, particularly in the sparring and the sex scenes.

** Oliver's "bodyguard" Diggle gets to show off his own body once in a while; it's impressive.
** Roy Harper gets in on the action with a shirtless scene in episode 17.
** Slade. The promo for Season 2 were basically a bunch of posters of all the mentioned characters in a shirtless state, showing off a lot of abs.

** Lee "Apollo" Adama is one of ''Galactica'''s surest sources of Estrogen Brigade Bait. Let's just say viewers were ''very'' happy about the amount of time the crew of ''Galactica'' spend in tank tops, or better yet, [[ShirtlessScene shirtless]]. Lee gets ''[[http://www.mikethefanboy.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Jamie-Bamber-shirtles-looking-hot-and-sexy-2.jpg a truly spectacular scene]]''in season 2 where he accidentally drops his towel in the pilots' locker room.

** Jesse Pinkman. Although usually subverted, with his baggy and ridiculously oversized clothes on display, but he does get his fair share of shirtless scenes in season 2. Although his attractiveness is rarely referenced in the show, in season three he gets a particularly fanservice-y scene where he is flat out flirting with the cashier while wearing more form fitting clothes than his usual attire. She even refers to him later saying "His eyes were ''really'' blue." Hank also refers to him as dreamy in the same scene based off her description.

** Spike. The snark. The badassery. The fact that he spends most of season six of the show wearing NOTHING and what time he ''doesn't'' spend shirtless (and sometimes ''pants-less''), he tends to spend wearing form-fitting t-shirts or an IntimateOpenShirt. He, like Angel, is no stranger to being the DistressedDude in chains either.

** Hotch has his moments, particularly if you like your men [[SharpDressedMan in a nice suit]], though when seen without it -- as in Season One episode after a [[SexyDiscretionShot fade-to-black]] with his wife -- he proves nearly as impressive as Morgan. And Reid gets a fair share of attention as well, for those who like their men [[PrettyBoy pretty]], nerdy, and [[DistressedDude in distress]].

** Several of the other guys on this show got this treatment two. An early episode in season 1 had Warrick Brown taking off his shirt and diving into a pool to search for evidence, and Greg Sanders and Sara Sidle were brought into a shower after they were in a contaminated scene. As Sara says "I saw everything."

* The titular ''Series/{{Galavant}}'' may qualify as this, as shots and/or scenes of him shirtless are quite loving and shameless. Taken UpToEleven during [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AB13n49voyg this number]] from the season two premiere.

** The ridiculously handsome Jon Snow, who starts off Season Six in ''nothing'' but a skimpy towel around his waist and is of the TallDarkAndHandsome variety.

** Sam spends the majority of season 2 without a shirt for apparently no reason other than the fact that he has abs. Seriously.
** Blaine is an interesting case. He plays an out and proud gay student, but the female fans can't get enough of him (particularly because he's played by the handsome Creator/DarrenCriss). The writers have taken notice (an episode of season four gives the fans substantial FemaleGaze in the form of a close up on his bum as he bends over in slow motion).
** The season four episode "Naked" has all of the guys posing for a "Men of [=McKinley=]" calender. Cue the montage of all of them working out in various states of undress.

* ''Series/{{Hustle}}'' has Mickey Bricks and Danny Blue (one of the most hyped episodes of season 3 involved the two of them being dropped off naked in the middle of London, and Danny has been known to strip off for ''no apparent reason''). Also, depending on your tastes, there's Ash "Three Socks" Morgan.

* ''Series/KamenRiderDouble'' has Kirihiko, who appears nude (in side/behind views) on three occasions. For this reason his [[FanNickname Fan Nicknames]] in Japan are "Shirihiko" or "Ketsuhiko" - ''shiri'' and ''ketsu'' both being slang for butt.

* ''Series/LegendOfTheSeeker'': Richard is shirtless in the first scene… it just goes from there. It sets the tone that their fanservice is equal-opportunity. And with Kahlan and Cara (form-fitting leather, much?), it's a high bar he has to meet. Having the lowest neckline in the party helps.

* ''Series/{{Psych}}'', Shawn Spencer, season one.

* ''Series/{{Smallville}}'': In the very first episode, Clark is stripped to his underwear, tied to a symbolic cross, painted with a giant S on his chest, and left to hang there, sweating and helpless due to the Kryptonite around his neck. The very first episode. It's also the image on the First Season box cover.

* Billy Hargrove ''Series/StrangerThings'' is a muscly handsome, long haired, mustached young man, whom every grown woman (aside from Nancy and Joyce) is attracted too. [[spoiler: He's also a JerkJock, bourderline psychotic and he has extremly screwed up life due his MissingMom and abusive dad]]. Fittiingly he's a lifeguard in Season 3.

** Colton Haynes is the JerkJock Jackson. He's not a werewolf [[spoiler:until season 2, at least]], but there seem to be a lot of scenes of him changing in locker rooms.

** Season Three hit the ground running! In the opener alone, we had [[ShirtlessScene shirtless]] HoYay with Sam and Bill [[spoiler:which turned out to be an EroticDream on Sam's part]], more naked Jason, and more naked Eric. We're clearly being spoiled now.

%%* ''Series/{{Psych}}'', Shawn Spencer, season one.

%%* Guest appearances on ''Series/{{Castle}}'' as the motorcycle-riding surgeon Josh Davidson (Victor Webster).

* ''Series/RupaulsDragRace'':

** The queen that's the most conventionally-attractive as a man is known as the "trade" of the season ("trade" being gay ballroom slang for a handsome cisgender man). The first time the queens get out of drag, everyone quickly looks around to see who's the cutest in boy-mode.

* MsFanservice:
** At Pandemonium in the first episode, both Isabelle and the demon girl wear very tight, revealing outfits. Isabelle even drops her coat and [[DistractedByTheSexy does a dance to distract the nearby demons]].[[note]]This is in sharp contrast to [[Literature/TheMortalInstruments the books]], where her outfit in the equivalent scene is notably conservative.[[/note]]
** For much of the first episode, Clary wears a see-through mesh top with a black bra underneath. At the end of the episode, she changes into a black leather mini-dress with thigh-high boots, courtesy of Isabelle.
** Isabelle bags another example when she seduces a Seelie for information in episode 3. Meliorn, her on-again, off-again boyfriend, is shirtless, and she gets a LingerieScene in a red bra and matching panties and later shows some ToplessnessFromTheBack when they have sex.

* ''Series/{{Rome}}'': Marc Antony would. We don't know much about his troubled past, but he loves to run around in little (read: no) clothing, and he definitely has the sexy voice. When he's actually wearing clothes, it's often armour. Which women don't really tend to mind.

* Soldier Richard Sharpe (Creator/SeanBean) from the TV adaptation ''Series/{{Sharpe}}''. He would often take off his shirt. It might look completely gratuitous, but he meant to show his men scars he got from flogging.

** Trip took his shirt off plenty enough times to count for this. Trip is reduced to his undershirt and underwear on three separate occasions in Season 1 alone. He even spends half of one episode saving the day wearing this under combo. Whenever he (or any other male character, for that matter, but Trip especially) used the decontamination chamber, cue shirtless gel-lathered muscle rubbing scenes.
