    Shane Vendrell - There are few things in TV and film more overrated than The West Wing.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,712 ✭✭✭Sawduck


    Shane Vendrell

    Toby. I love him. Another of my nominations.


  • Registered Users, Subscribers, Registered Users 2 Posts: 47,336 ✭✭✭✭Zaph


    Toby Ziegler, just one of many great characters in The West Wing


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,188 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Toby leads this battle 4-2 with 15 mins remaining

    Gordon Cole: Twin Peaks

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    Gordon Cole because he's absolutely amazing, and also because Rick sucks.


  • Posts: 13,688 ✭✭✭✭ Brooklynn Bitter Mushroom


    Rick Grimes - I was him in Werewolf recently.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,156 ✭✭✭Irish Aris


    OK, I don't think he has a chance to qualify and he was a secondary character but
    Gordon Cole because he is the master Lynch himself!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,738 ✭✭✭✭TheValeyard


    Rick Grimes gets my vote. He be killing Zombies.

    All eyes on Kursk. Slava Ukraini.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,468 ✭✭✭Ectoplasm


    Rick Grimes for the memes


  • Registered Users, Subscribers, Registered Users 2 Posts: 47,336 ✭✭✭✭Zaph


    Gordon Cole. If you're making something so brilliant why wouldn't you cast yourself in a really good role?


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 16,287 Mod ✭✭✭✭quickbeam


    Rick. He was good for a while.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,188 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Tidy battle this, 4-3 to Rick currently

    Rick gets the nod, quite the chap, but even he couldn't have saved Shane vendrell, loved the shield but could never put myself through that end again.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,941 ✭✭✭✭ShaneU


    GORDON COLE

    SORRY, HEARING'S GONE!


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,188 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Rick Grimes advances as Twin Peaks go 0-2 in characters. 5-3 the result

    A meh selection but Jim Hopper as I'm more familiar with Stranger Things.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,468 ✭✭✭Ectoplasm


    Tough choice. Going to have to go for Jim Hopper purely for his rage.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    Hopper one of the best characters from Stranger Things


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,712 ✭✭✭Sawduck


    Jim Hopper
    Good character and i'm not too familiar with suits


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,071 ✭✭✭Notmything


    Hooper, the Harvey schtick got very old very quickly.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,188 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro

    Vic Mackey - Never heard tell of the other show.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    Haven't seen either show yet, although I hear both are great. Will abstain from this one.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,712 ✭✭✭Sawduck


    Vic Mackey
    I loved The Shield and Mackey was a badass, he can't be eliminated in round one


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,468 ✭✭✭Ectoplasm


    Vic Mackey is brilliant in The Shield.

    Again, haven’t seen either show


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,943 ✭✭✭✭the purple tin


    Walter Schweppenstette. Amazing character and actor, he's a real SOB but also had some very funny moments.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,943 ✭✭✭✭the purple tin


    Two of my noms knocked out. Lucy and Gordon.

    You bunch of philistines :p:pac:

  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 16,287 Mod ✭✭✭✭quickbeam


    Jim Moriarty, a great villain.

    (I prefer Elemetary to Sherlock though)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    Ah f**k, another two greats here. Would be happy to see either of them progress.

    Think I'll have to give the vote to Moriarty though, he definitely made a big impact every time he was on screen.


  • Posts: 13,688 ✭✭✭✭ Brooklynn Bitter Mushroom


    Frank Gallagher - Best character of a great show.


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    Frank Gallagher. He’s great

    But I do love Moriarty too.


  • Posts: 18,749 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Frank Gallagher

    Great character


  • Registered Users, Subscribers, Registered Users 2 Posts: 47,336 ✭✭✭✭Zaph


    Jim Moriarty - Andrew Scott brings something new to a well-established villain


  • Registered Users Posts: 23 sohsoh


    Got to be Moriarty.

    Frank would have been my winner but he cleaned up as the series went on.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,188 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Moriarty leads 4-3 here, tight match again.
