Eddie Cibrian vs. Ivan Sergei
Battle of the Hairy-Browed Himbos

In one sense -- besides their essential hairy-browed bohunkiness, of course -- Ivan Sergei and Eddie Cibrian are very similar. For example, both have been around TV for what feels like forever. Both are familiar in that "Hey, yeah, you, what do I know you from?" kind of way. But only one was in a boy band that was made up if three shirtless men. In other words: a man band.

Let's start with the other one. A quick glance at Ivan Sergei's résumé prompts one of those half-hearted "oh yeah" kind of sighs -- he's that guy from Jack & Jill, that weird romantic comedy TV show with Amanda Peet, where the brilliant twist was that he was named Jill and she was named Jack! Why didn't that take off?

Cibrian's had more success...sort of. He starred for a long time on TV's longest-running Show That No One Watched, Third Watch. Did you watch that show? Do you know anyone who did? Yet it ran for -- what? Thirty-six seasons? Is John Wells really that powerful?

But both Cibrian and Sergei are handsome in that soap-opera bohunk kind of way that (a) ensures that they'll play a lot of parts with names like "Rock Brown" (Cibrian) and "Mac Ramsey" (Sergei) and "Dr. Zack Nolan" (does it matter?) and "Mason Edward" (actually, that's Cibrian's son's name); and (b) ensures that they'll play a lot of parts that require them to strip off their shirts, because the sprinkler system just went off in the hospital but this woman needs to deliver her baby right now!; and (c) ensures that they always linger at the periphery of stardom thanks to repeat appearances on, like, those E! "Hottest Bodies" specials that run every weekend, but that (d) you'll never, ever, ever quite be able to remember which one is which.

Here's a clue: Sergei is the one currently co-starring in The Break-Up as "Carson Wigham." And Cibrian's the one who was once in this weird pseudo-Canadian boy band called 3 Deep. Pardon us: "man band."

Advantage: Adrian Grenier. Because, really, isn't he waiting just outside the ring to smack down whichever of these two hairy-browed bohunks happens to survive? Isn't Adrian Grenier living the hairy-browed bohunk dream?
