    Man, there are some good ones up there (though I too have yet to see GoT or Breaking Bad).

    Also, I forgot about Frank Pembleton on Homicide.  Talk about intense.

    Totally love your Holder from The Killing pick. I thought that was a great show.

    But you MUST get on the ball with Breaking Bad and GOT. Those are 2 phenomenal programs.


    P.S. good to see you back

    Angel, Buffy the Vampire Slayer/Angel
    Dr. House, House
    Doug Ross, ER
    Max Guevara, Dark Angel
    Hannibal Lecter, Hannibal
    Jack Shepard, Lost

    Classic shows:
    Perry Mason, Perry Mason
    Sam McCloud, McCloud
    Simon Templar, The Saint
    Uncle Martin, My Favorite Martian
    James T. West, The Wild Wild West

    Fun thread! Joining late and gotta agree with previously noted Hawkeye Pierce, Costanza, Jack Bauer, Fox Mulder and both Jesse and Walter White. (also liked B. Cranston..Walter..as the dad in Malcolm in the Middle). My 5 additional favorites are:

    Kirk...James T.  Star trek
    Gemma Teller  Sons of Anarchy
    Dr. Reid Criminal minds or Dr. Smith lost in space.
    Elliot Stabler  Law n order SUV
    Samantha Jones  sex in the city
