    I know it's a little old but I think all the characters in both Friends and Seinfeld was really great.

    Marcy Runkle from Californication is another great one!
    Yes, she's a good one too.

    One of my favorite, this still is from the show "Car 54, Where are You?"  Points for naming the actor, bonus points for telling us what other show he starred in:



    Is that a young Herman Munster? I’ve never seen Car 54, but I thought that looked like Fred Gwynne?

    Herman Munster
    The two yutes
    Fred Gwynne
    Yes! 

    Car 54 was a kick.  Gwynne with his dour, flat humor was hilarious. Haven't seen that show in ages.  Must be some on YouTube- I'll have to go look sometime.

    I didn't add this one earlier because he doesn't really qualify as a TV character but he provided the voice over and bookmarked every episode of one of my all time favorite shows. Nothing beats the original - Rod Serling.

    Oh yeah!  One of the best.

    Glad to see all of the Breaking Bad and The Wire love on here. Couldn’t agree more. I was surprised no one has mentioned any characters from Entourage (Ari Gold comes to mind) or The Big Bang Theory. This list would be too hard for me, but Sheldon would have to be up there.

    Only 5 was the intention....I could put 25 up, easily.  
    That's the beauty of a Top 5 list.

    I love how many people love Al Swearengen

    This is your opinion.  Nobody is wrong.  (Unless you choose Cliff Huxtable)
    Any sort of "TV" cable, network, streaming, web series.  Share your favorite 5.

    You can order them, or not.

    Left many favorites behind, but here are my Top 5:

    Al Swearengen, Deadwood
    Tyrion Lannister, Game of Thrones
    Omar Little, The WIre
    Ron Swanson, Parks & Rec
    Tuco Salamanca, Breaking Bad




    I’ve never seen any of those shows.

    television will rot your soul and kill your brain.

    Nice going

  • @tempo_n_groove Eddie Finnerty is another one of my favorites!  Loved that show.

    I would laugh my ass of whenever he was on.  He became a favorite actor of mine because of that show!

    Ari's great, but I'd have to give my nod to Johnny Drama as far as Entourage goes
