    Agreed.Its already been well documented how the Simpsons started going to crap circa 1997 onwards but prior to that Homer was a fantastic creation.

    An even sadder fact is that he has been crap longer than he was good.

    But, at his peak, he would be my favourite.

    It's to hard to pick a favourite of all time as it changes depending on my mood.

    I have a soft spot for Klinger from MASH a great character who had a great story arc.

    Only ever appeared in one episode, but he has become almost an icon in his own right.

    Mr. Hank Scorpio of Globex Corporation. The best boss you'll ever have, but he's also a supervillain.
