We'd like to welcome back an amazing friend of mine (and true Hunkologist)... Kat! With great picks like Craig, we hope to see more of her around here, while she's not being a pop culture know-it-all over at her own blog.

Craig Olejnik is a Canadian-born actor starring in the new show The Listener that's premiering this week on NBC. This John Stamos look-alike was previously seen on the short-lived, Donnie Wahlberg drama Runaway that lasted like 5 episodes on the CW a couple of years ago.

In The Listener Craig plays a telepathic paramedic that solves crimes or something. Who cares? His eyes are dreamy. So far the show's received pretty good reviews, and I'm looking forward to watching. Here's hoping that his character is forced to take off his uniform a lot.

If Canada is hiding other hunks like Shawn Roberts, it might be time to seriously consider easing the immigration qualifications. Shawn has quite the resume of TV appearances, and without doubt, spends a lot of time with his shirt off.

You might remember his boyish grin in the first installment of X:Men as Rogue's boyfriend, Cody. Shawn has grown up quite a bit since then and it is apparent in his last role in the TV show Pysch.

Pictures from the episode after the jump! Enjoy!

After joining the Broadway cast of Spring Awakening a few months ago, Canadian singer Kyle Riabko has been tapped to lead the national tour cast in the lead role of Malchior Gabor.

His track Do You Right has actually been in my music rotation for a while now, after iTunes offered it as a free track of the week once upon a time. I'm happy to see that he's still at it, and that new audiences are being treated to his tunes.

What are you wearing as you read these questions?
Figures this should be the first question. Rather boring this evening. T shirt with the word FIREBIRD (don't ask) emblazoned on it, and pale green DKNY shorts. No socks!

You say you don't mind making an ass of yourself. When was the last time you did that and what did you do?
By ass I mean let the fuck loose. I trampled my way onto the stage at MIA's latest concert in Montreal. Think I hurt some poor blonds to get up there. I did the same at her Vancouver gig. Danced my lil' ass OFF the floor.

How could you not like the movie Big Fish?
I don't hate it. I did cry near the end, and rather enjoyed it. But compared to Tim Burton's best, it just doesn't stand the test of time. I mean Beetlejuice, Edward Scissorhands and yes Mars Attacks!...those are CLASSICS!

What would the girls of Sex & The City think of Amy Sedaris?
I think they'd adore her..well not Charlotte.

What exactly do you want out of life?
a FULL life of unexpected delights.

Would you ever date a drag queen?
Sorry, love em' but couldn't date one.

What do you think the biggest difference is between an American and a Canadian?
Canadians apologize far too much without really meaning it. Americans think, then say "fuck it".

Will Amy Winehouse ever get her act together?
God I hope so. I've been watching all these documentaries on her and her upbringing, and this whole downward spiral is so recent. I NEED more records from her, before she leaves us.

What was the last thing you watched on TV?
Rented a movie, L'Enfant. Palme D'or winner a couple years back. Heartbreaking, but uplifting. See it.

Best brand of cereal?
I'm a health nut. So currently I'm into any high fibre, low sugar cereal. I like to mix it up. Corn Puffs were my cocaine as a kid.

I love Olympic season... especially the Summer Olympics. This morning, Towleroad featured this photo Alexandre Despatie on the cover of L'Actualite magazine.

It's time to dust off that "Hot Olympian" category again!

Chris from Hunk du Jour: Who are some of your favourite designers to wear? What is it about their clothes that draw you to them?

Mark Munroe: On a personal note, Michael Vollbracht for Bill Blass, I had the chance to see his show and interview him last year in Miami, great guy, great clothes! Roberto Cavalli, Domenico Vacca are two of my favourites, their cloths are clean, classic and sexy as hell. There is a cashmere jacket that DV makes in light blue with yellow pin strips, just an amazing feel and look, Just got to love it!

HDJ: How would you describe your personal style?

MM: Classic, Clean and Comfortable. I like solid colours, blue, grey, black, brown. I like clothes that look sharp but aren't flashy, and the clothes have to be comfortable, you need to feel good in what you're wearing.

This month, AXM features an interview with Hayden Christensen. The Life as a House and Star Wars star will be appearing soon in Jumper. Hayden also has a few other projects in various stages of production.

He's come a long way since appearing in an episode of the Nickelodeon show, Are You Afraid of the Dark? (...which I loved, for the record.)
