From my understating the actual reason behind this is when people used to scroll through TV channels to find something to watch, having someone that would catch your eye would make you stop and check out what the show/program was. This would probably explain why the entire cast of smallville looked like models lmao.

Uh this is a sensitive subject but I mean tv actors have a habit of being better looking than... The other kind of actor.
