For posting characters from the American Office instead of the far, far superior English version you shall burn.

Haha I forgot! Have you seen the American office though? It's pretty hilarious!

Great suggestions so far. Captain Flash-heart has to be up there

As they haven't been added yet:

And of course, the most evil character in history of TV:

Basil Fawlty.

Yet another vote for Captain/Lord Flasheart, he simply destoryed the screen whenever he was on. Tour de force

Norm Peterson from Cheers

Alan Shore: Boston Legal
Barney Stinson: HIMYM, the way his character has developed over the years is superb.
Raylan Givens: Justified
Jayne: Firefly

Jack Carter - A Town Called Eureka
Mal Reynolds - Firefly

most characters from breaking bad , but Saul is awesome (non spoiler), His timing into the show and the character in general really was a work of genius:

A new one just started this week, Don Cheadle plays

One · 18 Dec 2011 at 02:49

Ron ****ing Swanson!!!

The_Bullet · 18 Dec 2011 at 10:33

Arthur Daley - Minder
JR - Dallas

Columbo · 19 Dec 2011 at 09:43

Probably my favourite character in any show ever.

Al Swearengen - Deadwood (Caution naughty words)

King85 · 19 Dec 2011 at 09:47

Dwight Schrute (US Office) and Omar (The Wire) are my personal favourites.

Edit: Ari Gold (Entourage) too!
