Jackie Florrick, The Good Wife
Actress Mary Beth Piel created a character who you giggle at one minute and want to strangle the next. Jackie is the mother of Peter Florrick (Chris Noth), now the Governor of Illinois and mother-in-law of Alicia (Julianna Margulies) who, like most TV moms, thinks the sun rises and sets on her son, despite Peter's checkered past and resented Alicia's initial distancing of herself from Peter after learning that he had been sleeping with prostitutes for years. Jackie has not been above using her son's political clout to further her own agenda and once used her grandchildren's trust funds to purchase a house that Alicia wanted to buy for her and her children. And it goes without saying that Jackie and Alicia's mother (Stockard Channing) aren't exactly BFF's either.
