    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)

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


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 56,253 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


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

    Give a reason!

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


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,388 ✭✭✭✭TheValeyard


    Lucille, more depth to her.

    All eyes on Kursk. Slava Ukraini.

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


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,502 ✭✭✭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.

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

    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.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 91,033 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    Kelly to join Al in the finals go Bundy!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 230 ✭✭thelostboys23


    Kelly Bundy cos she seemed like she got around


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭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...

    Lucille due to her fantastic use of non verbal communication


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,388 ✭✭✭✭TheValeyard


    Red, he's awesome

  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 6,340 Mod ✭✭✭✭PerrinV2


    Cox king of the put downs


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 91,033 ✭✭✭✭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


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,499 ✭✭✭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.

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


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 56,253 Mod ✭✭✭✭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.


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 18,430 Mod ✭✭✭✭Trigger


    Another vote for cox, because quickbeam likes watching cox


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    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.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 58 ✭✭noler123


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


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,134 ✭✭✭eldamo


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


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,502 ✭✭✭PsychoPete


    Dr Cox excellent character portrayed fantastically by John Mcginley


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭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
