Default Favorite TV Characters

List them and discuss them.

Here are a few of my own to get things started:

1. The Fonz (from Happy Days) - Nobody epitomized cool like Arthur Fonzarelli. Sure, he was really short and lived with the super-square Cunninghams, but nobody seemed to give that a second thought.

2. Karl Kolchak (from Kolchak: The Night Stalker) - With his rumpled suit and ultra-cheap hat, Kolchak fought a never-ending struggle against the forces of darkness (not to mention his constant battles with his skeptical editor). His exploits inspired the X-Files and a huge cult following.

3. Tobias Fuche (from Arrested Development) - It doesn't get much weirder than this. Whether he's auditioning for the Blue Man Group, taking acting lessons from Carl Weathers, or just confusing everyone around him as to his sexual orientation, David Cross portrays this character as a loveable loser with more than a few screws loose.

1- Captain Kirk- When I was a kid, this guy was my hero. (Along with Adam West as Batman.)

2- From Arrested Development, Gob is my favorite character. What a corker this guy is.

I would definitely list Gob as one of my favorites, as well. Anybody who rides around everywhere on a Segue and performs magic to Europe's The Final Countdown deserves to make the list.

1. Dr. David Banner from The Incredible Hulk (Bill Bixby portrayed him as such a tragic character that I couldn't help but get bummed out each week when he'd hitchhike from town to town.)

2. Xena (What's not to like about a big ass-kickin' babe in leather?)
