I have always been a big fan of crazy people and I firmly believe that Soaps do the best job at creating Crazy people. This is probably why I love Crazy's.

Anyway, my favorites will be:

Janet (AMC)

Billy Clyde (AMC)

Allison (OLTL)

Mitch (OLTL)

Speaking as a Southerner with crazy on both sides, bless your heart for posting Julia Sugarbaker! And yes, I agree, Billy Clyde and Kate Collins' Janet from Another Planet were two of my favorite crazies!

Oh, and judging from another thread.... I'd also like to add Brenda Dickson.

I know Carl will agree with me on OLTL's Maria!

Capitol's Paula Denning (she kept her clueless ex-husband hostage in her basement which she had tricked out like a fake hospital complete with elevator door bings and nurses calling for doctors over the P.A.).

I will, too.

Poor Maria Roberts. There really had been love between her and Clint "once upon a time." Unfortunately, time and distance were their enemies; and Maria just could not accept that.

DC's death still hurts my heart. I never caught GCB but I saw Annie Potts on The View one morning and she said she took sort of a "What Would Dixie Do?" approach to her character. Let's not get started on Bernice and her Christmas tree skirt!

Jill from Knots Landing.

Too bad we cannot do a "Best SON Crazies" thread. Lives would be destroyed, yes; but it would be oh-so-fun to read in the meantime.

Julia's comments on the South are one of the few things from Designing Women which hasn't horribly dated, and which always seems true, especially in a media culture which always struggles to break away from the idea of the South being nothing but drunken inbred gun-toting mouthbreathers. The DW moments which were so obviously written from the heart are one of the few reasons I can really sit through the show.
