    Favorite TV characters

    Dunno if this topic has been done before..

    Been watching some old All in the Family shows on the you tube recently, there's a lot of em, and I have decided Archie Bunker may be the best TV character ever. George Jefferson and Maude are good too.

    I also really liked Larry David in Curb Your Enthusiasm. Is there a new season?

    Another contender from days long gone would be Bob Newhart.
    And for a totally different type, Spencer Reid from Criminal Minds.

    All the early characters from Heartbeat, fantastic programme and now part of my daily viewing, thank you Youtube.

    Nick and Kate Rowen. Love Nick's motorbike. Good chemistry. Kate looks after Nick and makes him fish fingers from time to time, though I wasn't happy with her attitude mid series four, putting her work before her marriage, tut, tut.

    Claude Greengrass and Blaketon - great rivalry, comic timing to perfection, I like it when Claude squints and calls his dog Alfred a 'daft apeth'.

    Sexy Gina behind the bar helping her uncle George. Great pub. Been there before, what pubs should be like - open fire good ales etc.

    Ventress. Great comic policeman, loves boiled eggs and smoking.

    ....

    Devastated today following news that our trip to Heartbeat country (North York Moors) and Whitby has been cancelled. Coach company called it off. Been looking forward to that for weeks. Have to ride out there on my motorbike in the spring.

    I see some of my favorites up there already but I'll just say it again.

    Rodney McKay from Stargate Atlantis (until he started dating!!)
    Wash from Firefly, his end still brings tears to my eyes(I am not joking about that)
    Leland in Twin Peaks
    Dale Cooper from the same show, no detective or agent can beat him!
    Sheldon from the big bang theory( I have to put him on the list cause I would love to live with someone this organized(until he started dating))
    the 10th Doctor from Doctor Who

    I could mention more but I won't, my free time is mainly spent with my tv or computer.
    I hope death is joyful, and I hope I'll never return -Frida Khalo

    Personally, I think that the unique and supreme delight lies in the certainty of doing 'evil'–and men and women know from birth that all pleasure lies in evil. - Baudelaire
