They just don't have any good looking people there.
Just kidding. :-)
(It's kinda true though)
Idk, on most shows, even American ones, I wouldn't say the whole cast is there for "sex sells". Typically there's a couple of good looking women and one or two good looking men just for tokenism, but I wouldn't say it's that rampant.
Then again my taste is always weird with actors and I don't tend to like the ones who everyone raves over.
Talking about British TV lets not forget about Hollyoaks. Hollyoaks is near enough a cast of 100% good looking people, when I was a teenager it was 100% good looking girls on that show except one token overweight girl.
Misfits is a more interesting one because I think they did a pretty good job in that show of downplaying the good looks of the cast.
Except for Antonia Thomas because it's scientifically impossible to downplay this kind of good looks
Even when she looks like a chav she looks good.
Or maybe I've just been brainwashed because she plays a really sexual role in the misfits.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
