Yes, I love these mega long lists. Abed is definitely one of my favourite characters of all time, and I'm looking forward to seeing him in the upcoming movie.

Michael Scott not making it into the top 100 is insane. Dwight deserved a spot, but you could’ve had two for The Office like you did for GoT. I also think Matthew McConaughey’s Rust from True Detective is a masterpiece of a character.

We can debate this list for days. I'm still shocked that out of 100 characters, Benedict Cumberbatch's Sherlock Holmes didn"t appear on this list. He didn't even receive an honorable mention :(

No Rick Grimes is wild

For me, Annalise Keating from How To Get Away With Murder is one of my favorite television characters. Her morally questionable actions come from her own experiences, and is definitely not afraid to get her hands dirty to get her job done. Viola Davis absolutely killed it in that show.

Thank you for including The Doctor and ranking him/her so high

THANKYOU! My boy Greg House finally ranking in a place he deserves!

Some of my personal favorites, in no particular order: Rick Grimes(The Walking Dead), Daryl Dixon (The Walking Dead, Frasier Crane(Frasier), Niles Crane(Frasier), Dr. Green (ER), Dr. House (House), Dr. Sheldon Cooper(The Big Bang Theory), Sam and Dean Winchester (Supernatural), Jadzia Dax (Deep Space Nine), Spock (Original Star Trek) Uncle Phil(Fresh Prince of Bel-Aire)

Honestly just happy to see Abed on the thumbnail

Awesome as always🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤

Great List Nice

I can’t believe Andy Griffith or Barney Fife weren’t on this list and up near number 1.

I love this list!

Sideshow Bob is the best character in the Simpsons for a villain

Homer Simpson better be in the Top 5

I think the entire muppet cast of Sesame Street are iconic. From the likes of Big Bird, Elmo, Telly, Bert & Ernie, Grover, Zoe, Cookie Monster, Abby, and more.

Ooh… this is gonna be exciting!

How the hell is Mr bean only number 72!!!!! He should be at least in the top 50

I can’t believe Olivia Benson was so far down your list! She’s one of the best characters on a police procedural ever, and the show has been on for nearly 25 years. The thing that really gets me about Mariska Hargitay is how she has completely taken her job to heart. She started The Joyful Heart foundation in 2004, an educational and advocacy organization for victims of sexual assault, child abuse, and and domestic violence. She even took on police force and governmental issues with testing backlogged rape kits (that just sit there, completely untested). The foundation is working to gain legislation to get the backlog tested and to make sure it never happens again. Her character is amazing, as is the actress herself.♥️♥️

Soooo glad you had both Sam AND Dean Winchester (even if they were all the way at 99 lol) Supernatural is easily one of my all time favorite shows of ALL TIME

A few honorable mentions: Spider-Man - various Leroy jethro gibbs - NCIS Smurfette - the smurfs franchise Ahsoka tano - various Michelle tanner - full house Optimus prime - transformers franchise Michaelangelo - teenage mutant ninja turtles franchise Dolores Abernathy - Westworld Slappy - goosebumps Oliver queen - arrow Merlin - merlin Tina belcher - bob's burgers Alf - Alf Garfield - Garfield franchise

Great List

Nice List

Excelente Video 🙊🤯💖🤩👌💝💐🌟🥇🏆

Rest In Peace Adam west

Alright, Avatar Aang! He might be a child at the age of 112 years old but he’s a cool character. The voice actor is amazing

Olivia Benson and Barney Stinson were both WAY too low. Both are incredibly iconic.

I love that when I started this Barney from how I met your mother popped up and it’s on my tv now😂

Number one is absolute the number one!

Am I tripping or did I not see Rick Grimes on this list?🤔😭

This was a great list. The biggest disappointment for me, though, was that Mads Mikkelsen's Hannibal wasn't on this list. Such an amazingly complex character and one of the best performances by an actor I've ever seen on TV.

Good List

Make the Top 100 Greatest Movie Characters, Video Game Characters, and Fictional Characters of All Time.

I truly loved this list, but I can think of a few awesome characters you left out , Jackie Gleason, Mallory archer, captain Kirk, al Bundy just to name a few other than that really good list 😊

For me Walter White is definitely the best,his transformation from shy school teacher to ruthless and cunning drug kingpin is one of the best things i have seen on tv shows.Great that you Homer and Tony Soprano in top 5,really great characters

Since my dad was a kid, he La-La-La-Loves Bugs Bunny. It’s his childhood while his mom likes Daffy Duck

Mickey Mouse should’ve been a part of this list 😢

13:16 86. Homelander 24:40 50. Eleven 27:40 42. Stewie Griffin 31:40 31. Thomas Shelby 34:40 22. Saul Goodman 35:05 20. SpongeBob SquarePants 40:35 15. Gregory House 55:13 01. Walter White !!!!

Saying this before I watch, the Doctor better be top 20 at least

BoJack at 85 is criminal. top 25 at LEAST.

how does Raymond Reddington never get a mention for these lists - always will be number one greatest character in my eyes

It's always tough to come up with any list having to do with the top TV characters of all time so there are bound to be snubs. For example, Dan Fielding of Night Court, Jack Tripper of Three's Company, Mr. Rogers, Dr. Perry Cox from Scrubs, George Jefferson of The Jeffersons, Dr. Johnny Fever from WKRP in Cincinnati, Basil Fawlty from Fawlty Towers, Sam Beckett from Quantum Leap, etc.

Nice 👍 Eleven is my favorite. Stewie, Homer and Scooby-Doo are also good

Woulda loved to see Patrick Jane somewhere on here. As well as either Clark Kent or Lex Luthor from Smallville.

Why are Spock from Star trek, Norm from Cheers and Karen Walker from Will and Grace not on this list?

f I were to make additions to this list, I'd have LOVED seeing *DEMONA* from Gargoyles! She's probably the most developed and unique character and still has a fan following!

I legitimately predicted the top 50. But would include much more characters from mid 20th century shows

Tony Shalhoub's Adrian Monk (from the series Monk) better be on this list. EDIT: Yay, #52!

I haven’t watched Columbo in years… but that, “Just one more thing” always made me smile. Gotta go back and find it…

790: I’m SO HAPPY that Stewie Griffin is on this list. He’s my favorite character from Family Guy

I’m surprised a lot of characters from other shows were not mentioned at all. I kinda expected characters like Elmo - Sesame Street Bob - Bob’s Burgers Gibbs - NCIS Gir - Invader Zim Hank Hill - King of the Hill Bones - Bones Mr. Feeny - Boy meets World Uncle Jesse - Full House Al Bundy - Marriage with Children Norman Bates - Bates Motel Courage - Courage the Cowardly Dog Samurai Jack - Samurai Jack Pikachu - Pokemon Wilt - Foster’s Home of Imaginary Friends Tom the Cat - Tom and Jerry Bender - Futurama Chucky Finster - Rugrats Dexter - Dexter’s Laboratory Etc etc.

The iconic SpongeBob is Number 20! He’s the staple of my childhood mixed with Tom & Jerry and Popeye

Tony Soprano should have been #1. Without him Walter White would not exist and Gandolfini's acting and character depth was quantum leaps ahead of Cranston's

Rick grimes being not included is the biggest crime imaginable. I was so shocked at him not being top 3😅. Some other Honorable mentions/ people who should have been included, i randomly thought of Jerry senfield Bart Simpson Phillip J fry Micheal Scott Bender Unlce Jesse (full house) Snoopy Popeye Carlton ( fresh prince) Shawn Spencer (this is probably very bias) Alan or Charlie from two and half men Louise Belcher (but maybe Tina or Bob instead) Morty Smith maybe Tom and Jerry Peter griffin Jessie pinkman

The fact that Andy Sipowicz is not even on the list, when he should have been in the top five means you have not done your homework.

You guys left out both Wilson AND Mr. Feeny? I get that you can only put so many TV personalities into a list, but these two characters are legendary sage neighbours that hugely helped the plot of most of the episodes of their respective shows. At least include one of them

Yes! I love these long lists!

You missed a few remarkable characters. Dr. Reid from Criminal Minds, Jessie Pinkman from Breaking Bad, Michael Scofield from Prison Break , Michael Weston from Burn Notice, and Raymond Reddington from the Blacklist. All of these characters are a lot more pivotal to their show than a lot of characters on your list. These characters provided a large portion of the heart, sound and critical development necessary for the shows they were part of to allow for each show’s longevity and endurance with the spectators of each show.

SpongeBob is going to be high on the list

Would have loved to see Susie Myerson on the list. Alex did such an amazing job with that character.

Spike and Willow from Buffy should have also earned a place. Their growth and development over the seasons is even better than that of Buffy, I'd argue. Good people who get corrupted by evil and then eventually find their own way to redemption.

My mom loves Tommy Shelby in Pleakly Blinders. It’s one of her favorite shows

Tony Soprano and Omar Little and Don Draper are tied for #1 for me.

Like the list, but it missed Al Bundy, Basil Fawlty, Edmund Blackadder, Richard Richard, Simon Adebisi, Vic Mackey and Al Swearengen.

My 2 favourites are Jesse Pinkman from Breaking Bad and Michael Scofield from Prison Break.

Next do a Top 100 Greatest Movie Characters I loved one of these characters in movies that some of them will be in the future 100 list in the near date

I'm so glad Sam and Dean made it on here!! Some HM: Jonathan and/or Clark from "Smallville" Bones and Booth from "Bones" Walker from "Walker, Texas Ranger" Sgt Greg Parker from "Flashpoint" Uncle Jesse from "The Dukes of Hazzard" Danny, Jesse, and Joey from "Full House" Laura and/or Charles Ingalls from "The Little House on the Prairie" Dan Conner from "Roseanne" Clair Huxtable from "The Cosby Show" Uncle Phil from "The Fresh Prince" Frank Reagan from "Blue Bloods"

My dad loves SpongeBob SquarePants. We watch the show together from DVD.

All of the Downton abby cast deserve to have the top spots. That is by far thw best show out there.

Glad you had Captain Picard on this list, but Mr. Spock should have been on here as well.

Very Happy that Matt Murdoch made the list

Mostly happy with this list. Walter White being number 1 is awesome, Don Draper and Tyrion Lannister being high up is great. Sam & Dean Winchester being on the list at all makes me sooo happy (Supernatural is one of my favorite shows and it often gets overlooked on lists like this) But a few things I can't believe: No Michael Scott, No Frank Castle (The Punisher), No Jax Teller, No Hank Hill... but the biggest one honestly is NO RICK GRIMES!? I actually can't believe that, he MADE that show!

Here's my Top 10 1. Frank Underwood 2. Don Draper 3. Thomas Shelby 4. Littlefinger & Varys 5. Walter White & Tony Soprano 6. Tywin Lannister 7. Logan Roy 8. Tyrion Lannister 9. Cersei Lannister 10. Gus Fring Honorable Mentions Serlock Holmes Saul Goodman Jaime Lannister Claire Underwood Hannibal Lecter

Honorable mentions: Popeye the sailor: A mumbling spinach-eating muscle bound oldie but goodie. The Eds: Ed Edd n Eddy. No matter which one you pick, you're guaranteed to get some laughs Chowder: A purple hungry chef's apprentice who is relatable in more ways than one. Wander and Sylvia: Wander over yonder. A cheerful friend and a rock hard fighter make for a fun duo. Bender: Futurama. Those who disagree can bite his shiny metal a$$.

Can you do a movie character version of this as well?

Sonny Crockett and Tubbs deserved a spot simply for how culturally significant they still are. John Reese from Person of Intrest. Raylan Givens from Justified. Jake Peralta from Brooklyn 99. Dave Chappelle from Chappelle's Show. Last but not the least, Tom & Jerry.

Damn, no Klaus Mikaelson, not even Damon or Stefan.

Depends whether we are talking only serious characters or comedy or both. Barney Fife was one of the most iconic TV characters in the history of television, so were Walter White, Dwight Schrute, Ron Swanson and Tyrion Lannister. I’m looking forward to seeing this list.

Not having Prince Zuko on here is INSANE. He had the most emotional backstory out of everyone in Avatar, and the way he slowly developed into the character that he did was nearly as good as Walter White.

"I have no idea where this will lead us, but I have a definite feeling it will be a place both wonderful and strange"-Dale Cooper-that quote feels applicable to so many situations lol.

I knew when I didn't see Tony Soprano in the first 90 I knew he was in the top 10.

I didn't realise this video is 56 min long even though she is counting down from 100

Good list. Should have have had russ from true detective though.

It's 1am here but wouldn't miss it for the world

Nice

I’m so happy when I found out El was at #50 cuz she’s prob my fav or one of my fav characters of all time

I'm surprised you didn't include anyone from scrubs. Dr. Cox was such an interesting character who grew throughout the series.

Best Characters: Bart Simpson, Daffy Duck, Bojack Horseman, Summer Smith, Grover

Cool list, but just a tad bit of recency bias for my liking. That left out a bunch of good ones. My #1 snub was Sam Beckett from Quantum Leap. Missed Jack Tripper, Dick Van Dyke, Rosanne, Fred Sanford, Michael Knight (Knight Rider), Alex P. Keaton, Dennis the Menace, Michael over Dwight for me, Barney Fife or Andy Griffith, and Tim the Toolman Taylor. Also, do Soap Operas count? Reality shows?

wish james st patrick "ghost' from power was on here even if lower but not much ppl fw power so its not mentioned on the channel. def one of my personal favs.

I hope Mulder and Scully are on this list yo. Pretty good list WatchMojo.

Michael Westen-Burn Notice should be here too. Jeff Donovan was fantastic in this show

Did I miss Al Bundy??

Great list, despite the presence of Beavis & Butthead, Spongebob, and the kid from South Park, and despite the fact that the other animated characters deserve their own list on which King of the Hill and Speed Racer would also be represented. With all that being said, my own Top 100 would include Buffy Summers, Gregory House, Lucy Ricardo, Olivia Benson, Jack Bauer, Fonzie, Gilligan, Archie Bunker, Columbo, Sabrina Spellman, Maxwell Smart, Hawkeye Pierce, and Don Draper from the original list, plus the following equally-deserving names: Beth Dutton - Yellowstone Arya Stark - Game of Thrones Elsa Dutton - 1883 Al Bundy - Married With Children Charlie Harper - 2 1/2 Men Crockett & Tubbs - Miami Vice Laverne & Shirley - Laverne & Shirley Annie Reilly - Copper Ruth Langmore - Ozark Ralph Kramden - The Honeymooners Matt Dillon - Gunsmoke Rick Hunter - Hunter Cordell Walker - Walker, Texas Ranger Barney Fife - The Andy Griffith Show Rob & Laura Petrie - The Dick Van Dyke Show Thomas Magnum - Magnum, P.I.

Mulder and scully better be top 10!

Y'all need to do a top 100 animated shows of all time consider stuff from the 30s like Flip the Frog and puddy the pup to modern shows like rick and Morty and the Futurama Reboot
