there are gonna be some ties here and there so it may end up being more then just 100 but first I am gonna start off with 12 honorable mentions

Honorable Mentions

Nucky Thompson

played by Steve Buscemi on Boardwalk Empire
There is no doubt that for years to come Buscemi's Thompson will be one of the best acted and intriguing characters on TV.

Dexter Morgan

played by Michael C Hall on Dexter
Don't get me wrong I love Dexter and Hall knocks it out of the park as Morgan. He is interesting and definitely unique. Also incredibly endearing ...for a serial killer.

Chachi

played by Scott Baio on Happy Days & Joanie Loves Chachi
I mean really who doesn't love Chachi? The wisecracking kid who grew up to be an american heartthrob.

Augustus Hill
l3554f3170000_1_31743.jpg

played by Harold Perrineau on Oz
As the narrator and soul of the HBO prison drama Oz Hill shed some insight into the lives of inmates in a max security prison.

Vic Mackey

played by Michael Chiklis on The Shield
Mackey was selfish, corrupt, and a an absolute son of a bitch but yet you always routed for this crooked cop to win in the end. That just how well written the show was and how great Chiklis was in the role.

Alex P Keaton

played by Michael J Fox on Family Ties
The young republican would in most cases be the most unlikable character on a show but Keaton was very endearing. Fox was great as the future yuppy and gave Keaton such a likability it is hard to argue it.

the next six are guys that while I understand there influence and awesomeness I just never really watched the shows they were on


Archie Bunker
300_115188.jpg

played by Carol O'Connor on All in the Family
Changed the landscape of tv with his crass and very nonPC way of looking at things. Truly a landmark show and character.

Ted Baxter
Ted-Baxter.jpg

played by Ted Knight on the Mary Tyler Moore Show
Brash, Arrogant, and Awesome! Ted Knight shining in a role that was tailor made for him.

Ralph Kramden
eyes.jpg

played by Jackie Gleason on The Honeymooners
The blueprint of every high strung, bumbling tv sitcom husband to come. He created it and no one has done it better.

J.R. Ewing
Larry-Hagman-as-JR-Ewing--007.jpg

played by Larry Hagman on Dallas
Probably the greatest TV villain of all time. J.R. was greed personified and had the entire country wrapped around his finger every week. So much so millions of people tuned in to see who shot him.

Tommy Gavin
Tommy_Gavin.jpg

played by Denis Leary on Rescue Me
Leary is tough as nails as Gavin a hard living firefighter. Someday I am just gonna watch every episode of this show because I know it's good and I am sure I will love it but I have just never got into it.

Al Bundy
531663-ijtlzo0vyp02w6ghvlif3dtdo1_500.jpg

played by Ed O'Neal on Married with Children
Combine Ralph Kramden with Archie Bunker and you get Al Bundy. The lovable sadsack dad on Married with Children. But as a kid my town didn't get Fox so I never got to watch this show and although I have caught an episode here and there of it in syndication I am by no means an expert on it or Bundy.


alright I am gonna start doing 5 at a time on the list within the next few days

Very nice list of honorable mentions. Now I am intrigued as to who has made the cut. Glad Fox got some love as I think that character is overlooked by a lot of people.

Nice start with the HM's, as long as Archie and Al Bundy made it onto that part I'm fine and will no longer consider the list irrelevant. :lol: Good call on Ted Knight and Michael J. Fox as well, two classic characters for sure. I was also happy to see JR on the list as I've always loved the guy. One thing, are you doing other characters that may have been played by the same actor? Because in the case of Scott Baio, I always liked his Charles character better than Chachi.

Becker and Sam Malone were both iconic characters. I will love to see where you put them on the list. If I just ruined it for everyone, my bad.

If its Danson another great character he plays is himself on Curb Your Enthusiasm...and also Arthur Frobisher on Damages. Basically Danson rules in everything he does.

I've never watched Curb Your Enthusiasm or Damages. Just his movies and Becker and Cheers.
