And your pick for greatest TV characters EVER are.... - Blu-ray Forum

Sussudio · 01-12-2009, 11:53 PM

One of the greatest things about television show characters is the ability to follow them from one season to the next, on one adventure after another, and from the very beginning of their journey to the very end. Many viewers become attached to their favorite character(s) as they watch them over the years, and there can be somewhat of an emotional kick in the stomach when the show finally ends.

That being said, who do you think were some of the greatest characters--live action or animated--to ever grace a television screen? (You can simply just list your favorites, too)

My favourite TV show characters are:

Homer Simpson - The Simpsons (pretty obivious)

If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire... The A-Team.

Jack Donaghy (30 Rock)

1) Paulie Walnuts" Gualtieri - The Sopranos. Funniest character. If you watch him progress through the intire series you'll understand what i mean.

2) Titus Pullo - Rome. Brilliant character. Like a soft giant. Freindly but if you upset him, he'll probably rip off your head.

Mitch Pileggi as Walter Skinner
