My Top Ten… TV Characters
I noticed the other day that I often refer to something as “one of my favorite xxx ever.” At a certain point, I realized I must have 100 favorite movies and even more favorite songs. So, I challenged myself to make definitive lists of my top tens as an exercise in creative thinking.
Tonight we welcome back “Walking Dead” after a TOO LONG mid-season break. Yeah… I cannot be the only woman out here who things any separation greater than a week from zombie-killer Daryl Dixon is cruel punishment…
Bit of advice to Carol: Grab him and kiss him. We need someone to live vicariously through.
With a nod to Daryl [who hasn’t quite made the list yet], I offer you… My Top 10 TV Characters:
- The Doctor – Doctor Who
I have my favorite incarnation; Ravynn has hers. You cannot be a fan without having strong ideas about this. At the same time,I kinda love them all.
- Hawkeye Pierce – M*A*S*H
The anti-hero. I suspect this is where it started. If you haven’t seen M*A*S*H, you really should.
- Piper – Charmed
Functioned as the oldest of three sisters [after we lost Pru]. Super powerful witch. Got the white lighter… What’s not to love?
- Leonard Hofstadter – Big Bang Theory
Leonard is amazing. I won’t pretend much of that is due to his role in his BBT group, but… cute, cool and nerdy. Squee.
- Eric Northman – True Blood
Yes, I wept a little when he cut his hair.
- Gregory House – House, MD
More anti-hero… And, you know, he needs to be fixed.
- Dylan McKay – 90210
I will always be a 19-year old girl.
- McMurphy – China Beach
Bad ass army nurse with a squishy little heart inside.
- John Winchester – Supernatural
The man is pretty. And broken. And responsible for Sam & Dean.
- Shane – The L Word
She’s the character that got me hooked on the show. Broken. Anti-hero… you see the theme, right??
No. These are not in any real order.
Yes. They change almost daily.
