    Rachel. If she hadn't been in the show I don't think it would have been the success it was.

    Rachael is pretty much an icon of the 90s. She was hilarious throughout the whole Ross and Julie affair.
    Claire was pretty minor part of MF

    Rachael for the win

    Rachel Green makes quick work of Claire Dunphy with a 7-1 victory and plenty of time still left on the clock

    Match 28

    Will Karma be on Earl's side here or can Daphne use her psychic abilities to her advantage...

    Definitely Daphne Moon

    Great character, and put up with craziness from Fraiser and Niles.

    Also her family were hilarious.

    Both are great. Daphne edges it as a great supporting character even though her accent was a bit annoying at times. She deserves some recognition after being a dogsbody for years.

    Daphne Moon.

    She was often the "straight-man" of the show but occasionally came out with some wonderful lines out of nowhere. And Niles wouldn't have been as great without her.

    Ok that scene is alright. Absence of Carlton and Will Smith not doing his usual zany overacting schtick helps.

    In our closest battle so far, after 45 minutes we're left with a 5-5 tie between Earl Hickey and Daphne Moon, which means it's down to me to make the tough decision. I like both these characters a lot, and think they're fairly evenly matched, but the one I find the funnier of the two is Daphne Moon so she gets my vote

    Match 29

    Quite an evenly matched face-off here one would think, but it will probably depend on what era of Sitcoms people prefer...
