Dexter - Dexter

Walter - Breaking Bad

Brock and The Monarch - The Venture Bros

There was a time when I questioned the ability for the schizoid to ever experience genuine happiness, at the very least for a prolonged segment of time. I am no closer to finding the answer, however, it has become apparent that contentment is certainly a realizable goal. I find these results to be adequate, if not pleasing. Unfortunately, connection is another subject entirely. When one has sufficiently examined the mind and their emotional constructs, connection can be easily imitated. More data must be gleaned and further collated before a sufficient judgment can be reached.

I enjoyed Buffy, but I'd put Angel above it. Buffy's best moments were created by fringe characters, like the second vampire slayer who went crazy and Spike. I would put Firefly even higher, but honestly I think if Firefly had 5 seasons, it wouldn't have been as great. These shows lose steam over time, and Firefly has the curse and the blessing of dying young.

 

Angel was filled with good times. The whole law firm that represents demons and other evil creatures was fantastic. And it was a more adult theme.

 

But none of these are high art or anything. Buffy is 90210 and Angel is Melrose place, but for fantasy geeks. Firefly is essentially Growing Pains.

2. Lester

3. Kima Greggs

4. Bunk

5. Omar

6. Carver

7. Stringer Bell

8. Slim Charles

9. Snoop

10. Jay Landsman

 

If you don't know who these characters are, you don't watch good television.

 

if you're gonna make a top 10, at least put Brother Mouzone in it rather than Slim Charles

has anyone mentioned the passionate, passionate Nightman?

People laugh when I say that I think a jellyfish is one of the most beautiful things in the world. What they don't understand is, I mean a jellyfish with long, blond hair.

Day man is the fighter of the nightman, protector of the sun, master of karate and friendship for everyone.

Document: Peter Falk has Alzheimer's

 

Dec 16, 12:03 PM (ET)

 

LOS ANGELES (AP) - A court document filed by Peter Falk's daughter says the Emmy-winning actor is suffering from Alzheimer's disease.

 

Catherine Falk is seeking a court's approval for a conservatorship of her 81-year-old father, who she claims no longer recognizes people. A hearing has been scheduled for late January.

 

Falk is familiar to most audiences as the star of the television series "Columbo," for which he won four Emmys. He was also nominated twice for Academy Awards for movie roles in 1959 and 1960.

 

The petition filed Friday in Los Angeles Superior Court states Falk lives in Beverly Hills with his wife and recently had hip surgery and requires constant care.

 

A phone message left for Falk's manager was not immediately returned Tuesday.

"I'm your biggest fan, Ill follow you until you love me, Papa"

Y&R has eveyrthing one would need to find a show entertaining - solid writing, great acting, characters one cna care about. I'd rather watch a serial drama than a 2 hour movie with cookie cutter characters that will become irrelevant ocne the movie is over. On a soap, you actually see character really grow and change over the course of time instead of over 2 silly hours.

 

 

"AND Dawson's Creek ffs"

 

hey, I never claimed that DC is the best show ever. It isn't. It's your typical teenage soap opera histronics. However, my point is that Pacey Witter as a character has actually been elevated above the atual source. DC was watchable. That's it.

Columbo is certainly a personal favourite. I'd also have to list Giles from Buffy. Starbuck from BSG also reminds me of way too many ex-girlfriends to be ignored.

House - House MD

Gil Grissom - CSI: Vegas

Columbo

KITT - Knight Rider (1980's)

President David Palmer & George Mason - 2nd season of 24

...I'm sure there's more and better ones but that's all I feel like thinking of right now.

Jack Donaghue - Alec Baldwin - 30 Rock

 

 

 

...mm, nope, that's all Ive got. And yes, he does sort of play himself.

DISCLAIMER: Do not take what I write seriously unless it is clearly and in no uncertain terms, declared by me to be meant in a serious and non-humoristic manner. If there is no clear indication, asume the post is written in jest. This notification is meant very seriously and its purpouse is to avoid misunderstandings and the consequences thereof. Furthermore; I can not be held accountable for anything I write on these forums since the idea of taking serious responsability for my unserious actions, is an oxymoron in itself.

 

Important: as the following sentence contains many naughty words I warn you not to read it under any circumstances; botty, knickers, wee, erogenous zone, psychiatrist, clitoris, stockings, bosom, poetry reading, dentist, fellatio and the department of agriculture.
