I'm sure there's a thread similar somewhere, but fuck it. Who ya got?

1. Omar Little - The Wire
2. Al Swearengen - Deadwood
3. Boyd Crowder - Justified
4. Daniel Holden - Rectify
5. Walter White - Breaking Bad
6. Kramer - Seinfeld
7. Vern Shillinger - Oz
8. Mike Erhmentraut - Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul
9. Rust Cohle - True Detective
10. Bill Rawls - The Wire

I'm sure many would disagree with the Rawls pick the most, but he's probably the funniest character in the history of TV, IMO. I also don't watch much network TV or older tv shows so others can speak to those. Toughest omission was Uncle Junior from the sopranos

That 8 minute tracking shot or whatever it was is still one of the coolest scenes ever

To a degree the shield ruined my enjoyment of watching tv. The last few seasons were amazing but I just haven't been able to attach myself to a series like that sense then.

Just slowly throwing names out there as I think of them, because if I wrote the list immediately it would probably have no less than four or five characters from Sorkin shows and I know I can do better than that.

Yeah I hear you. I felt like a fuckin idiot once I saw Rust Cohle mentioned after I spent a whole three minutes thinking about my list.

Also could probably throw at least a couple characters from House of Cards on my top 10 but for now we'll stick with Frank Underwood

I think Gregory House makes the cut too...

After House of Cards killed off that bald drunk guy the show went downhill insanely fast. I think I only stuck with it for a few more episodes.

I had the same problem. I liked your names and just pulled a couple of my personal favorites. If I had to go with ten total:

10. Charlie - It's Always Sunny
9. Jack Bauer - 24
8. Boyd Crowder - Justified (This could have been Shane in the Shield, love Walton Goggins)
7. Tobias Funke - Arrested Development
6. Tommy Gavin - Rescue Me
5. Fox Mulder - X-Files
4. Tony Soprano - Sopranos
3. Vic Mackey - The Shield
2. Rust Cohle - True Detective
1. Robert Ford - Westworld (Probably some recency bias)
