Best character on television today

Recommended Posts

Not the main character, but Arthur Spooner (Jerry Stiller) from The King of Queens is hysterical!

Charlie from "Its Always Sunny in Philly"

:wall:

 

was about to write that

 

I was going to say the exact same thing

 

the episode where he thought he was that kids father was hilarious

 

one of the best shows on the air, makes losing Arrested development not hurt so much

 

 

"i'm gonna smash your face into a jelly!!!"

One of the best scenes in the entire series!

 

Josh: Hey Ari!

 

Ari: That's a great story.

 

Josh: How you doing? Crashing parties now?

 

Ari: You know Joshie here, I don't know if you guys know but he used to be my assistant.

 

Josh: That was a long time ago Ari.

 

Ari: What 14 months, that ain't that long. He used to make the best hazelnut latte. He was like a chemist in there, working. Just like mommy made. It was fantastic!

 

Josh: Hey man, ease up man it's a friggin' party here ok?

 

Ari: Does your boss know you're using his house? Because I put a call into him. He and I went to school together. I helped him cheat on his economics final. That's how he got his degree, he owes me big time.

 

Josh: You called my boss?

 

Ari: Absolutely. You know another class I took at Harvard? Business Ethics. I don't steal other people's mother ###### clients, but in your case I'm going to make an exception. I'm going to take everyone; your B-level sitcom stars, your reality-TV writers, when I'm done with you, you're gonna be repping sideshow freaks. You need Jo-Jo the Dog-Face-######-Boy? Call Josh Weinfuck, the lightweight pen-stealing fuckface. [tastes Josh's drink and pours it out] That's awful.

Al Swearengen

Easily.

 

Al is great, but I really think Hearst is stealing the show. That character is just perfect.

[Meatwad has just burned Carl's house down]

Meatwad: Okay, it's either you definitely *should* play with matches, or you definitely *shouldn't* play with matches.

Carl: It's definitely one or the other.

Meatwad: Which one you think it is, Carl?

I really picked up an affinity for House when I was home. The only series I really got into though.

We were going to name the show 'Use Your Illusion,' but it's already taken. We're going with 'Use Your Illusion II.'

Ari Gold - Entourage

 

The guy is ruthless and focking hilarious. :shocking:

 

First name that came to mind. :banana:

 

I was in focking tears when he smashed that Mongolian soldier on Lloyd's desk. :lol:

Ari: "Listen, you with Vinny?"

 

Eric: "Yeah."

 

Ari: "Okay, be very cool. Do not get him excited. But the first west coast numbers are in, and they're big."

 

Eric: "Go on."

 

Ari: "Eight legs big, bitch!"

 

Eric: "...get the fuck out of here..."

 

Ari: "The webcrawler is in our sights, Eric, and I want to squash...that...FUCKER!"

That show was great, I loved the one where they had to do community service and coahc the basketball teams. And I love how repulsed Dennis is with that chick from the coffee shop. That show is classic.

And when the guy who picks all the black kids tries to get the others to say why he can't do that in front of the kids. :banana:

Ari's great, but not even the best character on the show.

 

Johnny Drama

House - House

This one gets my vote. Great show.

 

Grissom from CSI is a close second though.

 

I love condesending smart guys.

Well, of course Homer Simpson. He and the show are now past their prime, but, i think Max Power is still among the top charaters on TV, he was prolly #1 from 91-02 though. Others..

 

Eric Cartman- South Park

Mr/Mrs. Garrison- South Park

Grissom- CSI

Peter Griffin- Family Guy

Arthur Spooner- King of Queens(very underrated show, IMO)

Hank Hill- King of the Hill(only started watching this show about 2-3 months ago, another underrated show, the episode where he is a pimp is about the most hysterical thing i ever seen)

Jack Shepard- Lost

Hurly- Lost

Kate(forgot last name)- Lost

James Ford(Sawyer)- Lost

Locke- Lost

 

Those are the 6 shows i watch, CSI not a lot, KOTH and Family Guy, also not a lot. SP, KOQ are probably my 2 fav sitcoms, to go along with Lost, of course. With Lost, it's hard to pick one character, it would probably be Jack though. For all time(post 1990) characters, i think it will go something like this...

 

1.Homer Simpson

2.George Costanza

3.Cosmo Kramer

4.Grissom

5.Eric Cartman

 

I don't think too many people(except that one person who don't like the simpsons for some reason) with argue Homer Simpson of being the best character past 1990, probably of all time.

Technically, AD isn't on television anymore, but he would've been my pick, too.

 

Michael: So, this is the magic trick, huh?

 

G.O.B.: "Illusion," Michael. A "trick" is something a ###### does for money...

 

(Michael nods towards a bunch of kids listening, shocked.)

 

G.O.B.: Or cocaine!
