I don't think anyone has included Richard Dean Anderson as Jack O'Neill in SG1. The part was written very well, but he pulled off the irreverence of the character very well in how he acted the part.

Yeah, I don't know how in the wide history of television that one was overlooked. And oversight, to be sure.

hmmm... trying to decide if Pike was actually agreeing, trying to be funny, or just being an ass... I know what I think offhand, and how I'd like to reply, but I'll wait on that

Don Konkeyfor Dirt and Veronica Mars - Veronica Mars

I do agree with Jack O'Neill being a great TV character too.
He made that roll his and fans loved him for it.
Once he left the show, SG-1 just wasn't the same.

As a matter of fact I do.
I would have forgotten him.
Thanks for reminding me.
He was good!

Here is my list.

1. Larry Storch as Corporal Agarn, F-Troop.
2. Jim Nabors as Gomer Pyle, Gomer Pyle, USMC.
3. Dan blocker as Hoss Cartwright, Bonanza
4. Richard Mull as Bull, Night Court.
5. Frank Sutton as Sgt. Carter, Gomer Pyle, USMC
6. Frank Linsey, Goober Pyle, Mayberry RFD.
7. Vic Tayback as Mel, Alice
8. Roseanne Barr, Roseanne
9. Fred Gwynne, Herman Munster, The Munsters
10. John Banner, Sgt. Schultz, Hogan's Heroes

I will stop at top ten.
There are so many.
I had no idea.
I could go on and on...

And a special kudos too Batman.

I'm not sure if this counts, since they're originally from a comic, but I still LOVE the cheezy characterizations.

In particular I love...

Adam West and Burt Ward as Batman and Robin.
I don't know how they could keep a straight face while delivering some of those lines.

Catwoman....Julie Newmar was my favorite foe.
And as far as the movies go...no other actress matches her.

Other favorite foes....
The Penguin....Burgess Meredith was perfect.

The Riddler...Frank Gorshin's laugh was infectous.

Egghead...Vincent Price.
What a treat to see him as an eggcellent villian.


I miss cheese like this.

In no particular order (apart from the first one)...




Ronnie Barker as Norman Stanley Fletcher. Porridge



Bernard 'Theoden' Hill as Yosser Hughes. Boys From the Black Stuff



Jimmy Nail as Oz Osbourne. Auf Wiedersehen Pet (original run)



Ken Branagh as Billy Martin. The Billy Plays



The great John Thaw as Inspector Morse (left, obligatory bungling sidekick Sgt Lewis on right). Inspector Morse



And finally Ian McShane as Albert Swearengen. Deadwood

Only one of 'em's dead!
