Boardsies Decide: Greatest Sitcom Character (US & Canada)

Also Starring LeVar Burton

After an hour we're at a 5-5 tie between Niles Crane and The Janitor.

Niles did receive a 6th vote, but as no reason was given for the vote, it could not be counted.

As with all previous tie situations, to break the tie I will cast a vote of my own and determine a winner.

While I enjoy both of these characters immensely and would rank both very highly on my personal list of favourite characters, one of them I feel merely added something to a show that would have been successful regardless, while the other I feel made the show the success that it was, so my vote, and the character moving on to the Quarter Finals is...

Niles Crane

The Janitor has a good run for a character who got voted out in the first round, and there's no denying he's a great character, but he's gone now, so no use dwelling on it any longer

Moving swiftly on, next order of business...

Match 6

A Bad-Ass Mother taking on a Dumb-Ass Daughter here...

Lucille Bluth (Arrested Development)


vs

Kelly Bundy (Married... With Children)

Lucille as representative for her madcap family in a very funny show.

Necro

Kelly Bundy for the father/daughter dream team to go to the next round

The reason was in the inverted commas, refering to character he played on simpsons.

TheValeyard

Lucille, more depth to her.

1hnr79jr65

Kelly Bundy by far, cos lets face it, married with children was unbelievably funny.

PsychoPete

Again I'm basing my vote on hotness, Lucille

Yeah I got the reference, but just wasn't enough, was looking for something more, even if you had said because you like him better, that would've counted. Anyway, doesn't matter now, as the Match has been resolved.

Sawduck

Lucille Bluth, loved how she acted towards both Lindsay and Gob, and of course her weird relationship with Buster

eldamo

Lucille, she doesn't care for gob.

Motherboy 2020

Yester

Christina Applegate is a fine actress but I don't think she used much of her acting talent while playing Kelly Bundy. Lucille was a well developed character and a madcap mother for a madcap family.

JP Liz V1

Kelly to join Al in the finals go Bundy!

thelostboys23

Kelly Bundy cos she seemed like she got around

Also Starring LeVar Burton

At the end of an hour its Lucille Bluth who beats Kelly Bundy on a 6-4 vote and advances to the Quarter Finals

Match 7

Time to lose another great character as two more big names face off...

Dr Perry Cox (Scrubs)


vs

Red Forman (That '70s Show)

PerrinV2

Lucille due to her fantastic use of non verbal communication

TheValeyard

Red, he's awesome

PerrinV2

Cox king of the put downs

JP Liz V1

This is a tough as both good with one line comebacks and dealing with Kelsos so coin toss and Red gets the vote

Yester

If it came to a fight Red would kick Coxs ass and he would call him a dumbass while he did it. So Red.

quickbeam

As before, I do love a bit of Cox. By far the better character.

Necro

Damn it. I wanted both of these in the quarters.

But Perry Cox is the one guy Red wouldn't put his foot up his ass, they'd probably be best friends.

So my vote goes to Perry, standout character from Scrubs imo.

Trigger

Another vote for cox, because quickbeam likes watching cox

Omackeral

I'm gonna switch it up and go for Red as Perry could be a bit too hard on JD sometimes and I didn't like that.

noler123

Cox cause if it was up to me he'd win this whole thing and I don't know much about Red.

eldamo

I probably got more out of Dr Cox over the years. A bit surprised that they are both here though.

PsychoPete

Dr Cox excellent character portrayed fantastically by John Mcginley

Also Starring LeVar Burton

Red gets a couple of punches in, but its Dr Cox who wins this one by a 7-4 vote

Match 8

In the Final Match of Round 4, which of these two is making the Top 8 and heading to the Quarter Finals...

Frank Reynolds (It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia)


vs

Chandler Belingaling for being the funniest Friend.
