Boardsies Decide... TV's Greatest Drama Character

Necro

Nidge takes out Villanelle, gangland style. 5-0 whitewash.

Necro

Match 23

A Forum Games regular makes an appearance next against the man who had the longest days ever shown on television

Jack Bauer (24)




VS


Stu Redman - The Stand

Also Starring LeVar Burton

Jack Bauer complete badass and 24 is one of the best TV shows of the 21st Century, with Jack being the only constant, which says a lot about the character owing to the show's success

EDIT: and he was one of my noms

Sawduck

Jack Bauer
A cool guy from a great show, should go far in this

thelostboys23

Jack Bauer cos he made the CTU

Ectoplasm

Deleted User because he is among my favourite fictional characters. Very human, believable and heroic.

Jack Bauer

Irish Aris

Jack Bauer.

24 rules. I spent many long nights binge watching.

the purple tin

Stu.
I used to like 24 when it came out first but looking back at it Bauer is just your cliched tough guy.

Also Starring LeVar Burton

Jack Bauer

Cos probably one of the first shows I binged on

Necro

bubblypop's vote seals passage for the action hero Jack to Round 2. 5-2 the result.

Necro

Match 24

I really wish these guys didn't have to clash this round... but here we go.

President Josiah 'Jed' Bartlett - The West Wing





VS


Detective Frank Pembleton - Homicide: Life on the Street

Frank Pembleton - As I said earlier, West Wing is among the most overrated shows to hit TV.

Also Starring LeVar Burton

Jed Bartlett because the Two Cathedrals episode of West Wing is possibly one of the best episodes of TV and his performance in it is pitch perfect

quickbeam

Bartlett, the President we all deserve.

Ectoplasm

Jed Bartlett because I still remember the first time I saw it on TV and hair stood up on the back of my neck.


Oh and can someone please ban H2D for blasphemy

the purple tin

Jed.
An intelligent and likeable president with a strong moral code, something we will never see in real life

Trigger

Frank Pembleton just so I can use this gif

Sawduck

Detective Frank Pembleton
Perhaps the wisest cop on tv, great character

Necro

Jed Bartlett leads 4-3 currently, two fantastic characters. Don't make me choose

Was it you nominated Stu though?

Nope, this is my first participation in the contest.

.....................................................

I'm going to vote Jed Bartlett here because 1) I've never watched Homicide (I must do someday) and 2) It's Jed fúckin Bartlett!

Ectoplasm

I knew I liked Stu :pac:

Notmything

Frank Pembleton.

If he got you in the box he'd get you to own up to shooting JFK while riding shergar with lord Lucan in tow. He made that show (until his stroke storyline)

Necro

Gary Sin... I mean Stu Redman casts his first vote and it's a decisive one, sending Jed Bartlett sailing into Round 2

Necro

Match 25

Just a few more matches tonight and then I'm off to audiobook heaven.

Jonathan Kent (Smallville)





VS


Theodore 'T-Bag' Bagwell (Prison Break)

T-Bag - In a show with a number of great characters, he stands tallest - phenomenal character.

Trigger

T-Bag.

He was brilliant.. most of the best parts of Prison Break involved him

Also Starring LeVar Burton

Jonathan Kent was one of the best things about Smallville and its very tempting to give him a shout out vote, but on the other hand (pun intended) T-Bag was just a fantastic character and Prison Break was great (well the first couple of seasons anyway, but the rest was still enjoyable at the very least)

Vote for T-Bag

the purple tin

Oh what a toughie. These are the two best characters in these shows.
I go T-Bag. Even when PB went down the crapper he was always great fun.

Sawduck

T-Bag
What an entertaining creep he was

Necro

T-Bag shivs John Kent in the back and strolls into Round 2 with a whitewash. Maybe JK will get some love in the Second Chance showdowns...

Necro

Match 26

HBO Character showdown here...

Maeve Millay (Westworld)




VS

Enoch 'Nucky' Thompson - Boardwalk Empire

Also Starring LeVar Burton

Never really got in to Boardwalk Empire, but from the few episodes I did see Nucky was great, which is no surprise because Steve Buscemi, and in a lot of other matches, that might be enough to get my vote, but I watched a season and a half of Westworld and Maeve was by far the best character, and is one of the few reasons I intend to go back and continue where I left off at some point...

My vote therefore goes to Maeve Millay

Nucky - toughie but he's the best character in his show whereas Maeve isn't in her's,

the purple tin

Two shows I've yet to see. I'll sit this one out.

TheValeyard

Maeve Millay

Started off as such as weak victim with no say in her controlled life. Then became a force you would not mess with.

She is awesome.

Necro

Just under 15 mins left to go and Maeve Millay leads 2-1

PsychoPete

I cant keep up with all these threads. I really disliked Meave so Nucky it is

Trigger

Nucky because hes played by bloody Steve!

Necro

Nucky Thompson with a late flurry makes it to Round 2. Off to the Second Chance Showdowns with you Maeve!

Necro

Match 27

Final match of the night folks, enjoy...

Tommy Shelby - Peaky Blinders




VS


Max Guevara (Dark Angel)

Also Starring LeVar Burton

Max Guevera hands down. Dark Angel was a bloody great show, cancelled far too soon, and doesn't get the nostalgia it deserves compared to other shows of that time.

Thomas Michael Shelby. Dark Angel was grand but Peaky Blinders is different gravy.

the purple tin

Thomas Shelby. Murphy brings something special to the role.

Sawduck

Tommy Shelby
Don't mess with the peaky blinders, plus he's played by an irishman

I do like a bit of Thomas Shelby
