Your favorite TV characters ever?

My favorite ever was John Locke on L O S T

Most fascinating character I've ever seen, and superbly acted by Terry O'Quinn.
I liked most of the characters on it besides Claire. Sawyer, Jin, Hurley, Desmond, Jacob & 'the man in black'....all really spectacular.

Jack Bauer on 24

Most of the cast of 'Six Feet Under' esp. David & Clair Fisher. Tremendous show.

Also Michael Scott on The Office, and for some reason I loved Kevin James & that older dude that played his father-in-law on 'King of Queens' Cracked me up.

And can't forget Homer Simpson.


How about you?

Lieutenant Columbo.

Unassuming, underestimated, good natured and brilliant in his crime solving abilities.

ha Beavis & Butthead are outstanding! Great call.

I saw Stuart Smalley & Beldar Conehead from SNL mentioned by Grady. I loved Chris Farley's 'Matt Foley motivational speaker' and Eddie Murphy as Gumby and his take on Mr. Rogers..

I found Andy Sipowicz and Dr House interesting because of their flaws.
Going back a ways, Ted Baxter always made me laugh
And currently, I enjoy watching Joan Holloway . . . . . for obvious reasons

The first of my favorite characters, Lucas McCain(Chuck Connors) on the show "The Rifleman". I was only a little kid at the time but man was he cool. A good guy widower with a young son who looked out for those who couldnt protect themselves. He could really fan that Winchester.
