Maury Ballstein Posted January 8, 2016 Posted January 8, 2016 Mcshane and Olyphant are back ? Solid. Can we leave out the calamity Jane Crap ?
Acantha Posted January 9, 2016 Posted January 9, 2016 This still doesn't get them off my **** list for canceling the show in favor of John From Cincinnati.
Maury Ballstein Posted January 9, 2016 Posted January 9, 2016 John from Cincinnati was the dumbest POS show ever. I watched a few as HBO series had an immaculate track record until that BS. I tried but holy #{^]^ that was crap.
Observer Posted January 9, 2016 Posted January 9, 2016 This still doesn't get them off my **** list for canceling the show in favor of John From Cincinnati. That was not HBO's fault. Blame the creator. "Here's my counter offer to your counter offer: Go F%$# yourself." Ian McShane owned that show.
Alaska Darin Posted January 10, 2016 Posted January 10, 2016 Ian McShane owned that show. I put Sweargin right there with Archie Bunker as the greatest television characters ever.
Observer Posted January 10, 2016 Posted January 10, 2016 I put Sweargin right there with Archie Bunker as the greatest television characters ever. I am perfectly OK with their faces on the Mt Rushmore of best TV characters ever.
Maury Ballstein Posted January 10, 2016 Posted January 10, 2016 I am perfectly OK with their faces on the Mt Rushmore of best TV characters ever. Right next to Al Bundy ?
Observer Posted January 10, 2016 Posted January 10, 2016 Right next to Al Bundy ? You have to be on a good TV show to be on the Mt Rushmore of TV characters.
Deranged Rhino Posted January 10, 2016 Author Posted January 10, 2016 A Mount Rushmore of TV characters is a good idea. I would think you'd have to break them up into different categories though: one for original drama, one for comedy... probably one for Adaptation though I imagine they'd all be Thrones characters. Off the top of my head here would be mine: Original Drama Mt. Rushmore Tony Soprano Walter White Al Swearengen Fox Mulder (yeah, I did that over Omar, Bauer, and Draper) Comedy Mt. Rushmore Fraiser Crane George Castanza Michael Scott Tobias Funke (yeah, this one was way harder for me)
/dev/null Posted January 10, 2016 Posted January 10, 2016 It's amazing how many actors from Deadwood ended up on Sons of Anarchy Charlie Utter was the Sheriff Unser on SoA Calamity Jane was the MC's lawyer Trixie was on SoA during their Irish vacation Joni Stubbs was another whore/madam on SoA Silas was an IRA villain And of course Mr Wu who played...a Chinese boss
Maury Ballstein Posted January 10, 2016 Posted January 10, 2016 Draper over White and Mulder Al Bundy had a long long run fwiw. George and Tobias over Jerry ? Whoa
Deranged Rhino Posted January 10, 2016 Author Posted January 10, 2016 Draper over White and Mulder Al Bundy had a long long run fwiw. George and Tobias over Jerry ? Whoa Jerry is great, but he never anything but himself. As a standup, he'd make the list absolutely. As a character on the sitcom? Not so much. I think that has to go to George, Kramer and Elaine before Jerry. I was never a huge Mad Men fan so that's why I didn't include Draper. Mulder -- though X-Files is dated -- had a bigger cultural impact than Draper had. I'd argue White was a more fleshed out character than DD but again, I am a bigger fan of Breaking Bad than I was of Mad Men so I'm biased. And Tobias might be one of the most underrated comedic characters in TV history. But that's me

Off the top of my head here would be mine: Comedy Mt. Rushmore Fraiser Crane George Castanza Michael Scott Tobias Funke (yeah, this one was way harder for me) Lucy Ricardo. I mean, Desi and Lucy only invented modern TV with I Love Lucy. I don't know how you leave her off.
/dev/null Posted January 10, 2016 Posted January 10, 2016 Comedy Mt. Rushmore Fraiser Crane George Castanza Michael Scott Tobias Funke (yeah, this one was way harder for me) Homer Simpson and Eric Cartman belong up there
