Al Bundy
I vote Al Bundy number One!
Lou Grant probably is in my top ten or so. Pity about the actor's politics but, both on the MTM show and in Lou Grant, loved the Grant character.
G'kar from B5 might have to be there for me as well. And Spike from BtVS.
(Eclectic, you say? Yeppers.)
Dan
And I'd put All in the Family as the best sitcom of all time. ......or at least tied with I Love Lucy.

(Oh, that's right - it already is!)
The only one from the Andy Griffith show is Barney Fife?
And where is Niles Crane? One of the greatest characters ever.
Bart Simpson.
"Oooo--Oooo!"

Toody and Muldoon aren't on there.
Columbo, Frazier, Lucy, several of the Soprano characters, JR Ewing, and, even though he is new, I'm starting to get a kick out of "Denny Crane."
Ben Cartwright should have made the list.
Outrageous.
No Paladin? No Rifleman? No Lt. Buntz? Bah.
Jill Hennesy on L&O when she played Clair what'sername. Brains and looks. Every time I think of her..........I gotta go now
"Ralph Kramden" A classic:-]
Along with Barney Fife. Andy, Opie, and the Beaver should have been much higher. And Officer's Frank Poncherello and Jon Baker are no where on the list.
My favorite TV character of alltime was Marlene from "James At 15." I was 15 myself when that show was on and I wanted Marlene in the worst way. I used to skip school and take the subway to Boston, looking for her, because the show was being filmed there. I never found her but things worked out for the best.
