Who are your all time favourite TV/Movie characters, and why?
A few of mine:
The Doctor (Doctor Who)
Spock (Star Trek)
Leonard "Bones" McCoy (Star Trek)
Han Solo (Star Wars)
Data (Star Trek TNG)
Odo (Star Trek DS9)
Severus Snape (Harry Potter)
Ripley (Alien & Aliens in particular)
Rick Deckard (Blade Runner)
Minerva McGonagall (Harry Potter)
Sawyer (Lost)
John Locke (Lost)
Sayid Jarrah (Lost)
Gregory House (House)
I suppose I have a tendency to gravitate to characters who are outsiders; who don't quite fit in. I also like characters with murky pasts and prickly character traits. I am also fond of characters who aren't shy about showing their intellect/brilliance.
Who are your favourites?
