From Twin Peaks, my fave is the agent that Miguel Ferrar played. The "get back on your porch and resume whittling" comment may be the best line ever delivered on television.

Nice pick. I regard "Duckula" as vastly underrated (especially next to Danger Mouse which seems to get all the plaudits) but then I've not actually seen it in, oh, 15 years.

Wouldn't have thought of him either, a year ago, but they rerun Sanford & Son every night here in Chicago. Damn he's good!

Same. Hands down.

The others in the top 10 would just be a list of other Twin Peaks and CSI characters. Oh and I guess Mulder and Scully. Elaine too I guess.

Great character, but I gotta go Dewey from that show -- probably #11 for me.
