    McNutty all day every day. Probably the Wire's most irritating character but still better than yer wan.

    Absolutely McNulty. Fantastic character and is married to an Irish woman!

    Beverley crusher as a protest vote! Booooo-urns

    She is one of my noms. Prime Suspect introduced me to crime and detective drama. The character of Jane Tennison is really incredible. So human.

    I nominated her too. She’s amazing

    7 season which total a whopping 14 episodes... :rolleyes:

    So, what 1 or 2 episodes more than Trinity Killer... :(

    You should watch the first series. Gripping stuff

    I really don't care for Helen Mirren. She's the Mariah Carey of the acting world.

    McNulty cause he's kinda hot


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,947 ✭✭✭✭ShaneU


    McNulty is an absolute legend. He has the 1916 proclomation on his desk

    Tough round for one of my noms, but sticking with him...

    Wesley Wyndam-Pryce - had some of the best character development of anyone in any show ever.


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    Jesse. Yes please, yum.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,277 ✭✭✭✭flazio


    Wes finished Angel unrecognisable from the character he was in Buffy

    I vote Jesse Pinkman, b1tch.







    Also, way cooler.

    All eyes on Kursk. Slava Ukraini.

    Wesley - Buffy > Breaking Bad


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,947 ✭✭✭✭ShaneU


    Never watched Buffy or Angel so won't be voting on this. Even though I love Breaking Bad there were much better characters than Jesse. And El Camino was terrible


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 16,287 Mod ✭✭✭✭quickbeam


    Jessie because he's great, yo.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,313 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Finely poised at 3 votes each here.

    Jessie was also great in Season 3 of Westworld :D

    Jessie


  • Registered Users, Subscribers, Registered Users 2 Posts: 47,343 ✭✭✭✭Zaph


    Sticking with my nomination, Jesse Pinkman for me.

    Gotta give a reason for it to stick :)

    Ah ok,

    Jessie cause he got out of the drug life with his life.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,313 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Cheers Jeff! And with that Jesse advances to Round 2! Not without some resistance from Wesley though, 5-3 the scoreline

    Rustin Spencer Cohle - True Detective

    John Luther (Luther)

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,832 ✭✭✭✭TheValeyard


    Rustin Spencer Cohleas was a flawed genius. Gets my vote.

    All eyes on Kursk. Slava Ukraini.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    Luther because Idris Elba is class, and I did not like True Detective nor did I understand people saying it was the greatest show ever when it was complete and utter muck


  • Posts: 13,688 ✭✭✭✭ Brooklynn Bitter Mushroom


    Rustin - Decent character and I'm not familiar with Luther.

    Tough matchup for Luther.

    Will go for Rust, for the one shot scene alone.


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 16,287 Mod ✭✭✭✭quickbeam


    Luther because he's not the usual hero detective.


  • Posts: 18,749 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Luther

    Good character & easy on the eye :)

    Luther. Double yum this time.

    Luther. Double yum this time.

    I bet you dont even like Strawberry Milkshakes.

  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,313 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Luther comes from behind to lead 4-3, time limit expires on this match at 21.14


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,712 ✭✭✭Sawduck


    Rustin Spencer Cohle
    Great character, also incredibly smart


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,313 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Next vote wins, closest match so far...


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 16,287 Mod ✭✭✭✭quickbeam


    Okay, I vote Luther because he's great and to get the next competition up.

    Luther because despite the Sky ads I still love Idris


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,313 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Ectoplasm seals the deal for Luther in a tough match up. Rust Cohle becomes arguably the biggest faller of Round 1 thus far. 5-4 the scoreline

    Next up, our first Irish entrant... how will they fare?

    Nidge absolute brilliant character from the best thing RTÉ have ever had a hand in

    Nidge - Great character from the last time my TV licence fee was put to good use.

    Nidge

    Amazing character
