Members Khan Posted March 1, 2015 Members Share Posted March 1, 2015 If we have covered this particular topic in the past, then it must have been so long ago that I can't recall it OR find another thread about it around these parts. (Unless, of course, the thread is right under the old nose and I've merely overlooked it. That's also possible.) As always, feel free to run this ball anywhere you wish...as long as it doesn't include characters from soap operas, either daytime or primetime.

Members All My Shadows Posted March 1, 2015 Members Share Posted March 1, 2015 I think we've had it before, but it's always good for another go. It may be considered a primetime soap, but my favorite primetime TV character of all time is Dawson's Creek's Jack McPhee. He is the father of my children, and I love that man. I love so, so many TV characters. I couldn't possibly just make a list because I'd be here all day trying to come up with criteria for narrowing it down.

Members Khan Posted March 1, 2015 Author Members Share Posted March 1, 2015 IKR? Don't feel you need to narrow it down, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Bright Eyes Posted March 1, 2015 Members Share Posted March 1, 2015 Two random characters at the top of my head. Cassie (Skins: Generation 1) Anya (Buffy the Vampire Slayer) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Gray Bunny Posted March 1, 2015 Members Share Posted March 1, 2015 Roseanne Connor, seasons 1 through 6. I admit she became way too cynical and negative seasons 7-9, and was too busy trading insults instead of mothering her kids, but seasons 1 through 6 were magic, in my eyes. The early years especially possessed a perfect blend of humor and wit, along with genuine love and affection for her family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members YRBB Posted March 1, 2015 Members Share Posted March 1, 2015 I do watch many shows, but I feel an overwhelming majority of them could be considered/ARE a soap! Welp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted March 1, 2015 Members Share Posted March 1, 2015 "It's alright, nurse. Didn't I tell you? Cathy Martin...she's gone. She's never coming back." That scene cut me up in a way very few on TV ever have. Please register in order to view this content Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted March 1, 2015 Members Share Posted March 1, 2015 There were a lot of great characters on Oz. In terms of writing and acting and not staying around too long, she was my best choice. Second I'd put Ryan or Vern - Vern was a hell of a character, superbly acted all the way through and well written until near the end, when the show as a whole had totally run out of steam.
