    Desmond - quite an intriguing character.


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


    Was a big fan of Dark Angel and Joshua, but I nominated Desmond, arguably the best character on LOST - definitely had the best episodes.

    Sticking with my nomination and voting for Desmond Hume... See You In Another Life Brother!


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


    Desmond
    He was also my nomination, he was my favourite lost character


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,942 ✭✭✭✭ShaneU


    Desmond should win based on "The Constant" alone. Possibly the best TV episode ever.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,741 ✭✭✭✭TheValeyard


    Desmond Hume, a better character.

    All eyes on Kursk. Slava Ukraini.



  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,216 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Desmond takes the win here, 5-0 victory

    Up next, two fantastic characters from two very different shows. Only one can progress though...

    Ah bugger, I missed Josh Lyman, he was one of my nominations. He was probably the best character in the whole of The West Wing and he was beaten by some guy called Bubbles? Wtf???


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,741 ✭✭✭✭TheValeyard


    Marc Anthony, he's got Roman Legions.

    Desmond

    because he was in Lost!


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


    Rome is my favourite show ever, and crimininally underappreciated and underseen, and Mark Anthony is an absolute brilliant character.


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


    Haven't seen a whole lot of either series, but from what I have seen Marc Anthony is the more interesting character so I'll vote for him, as I just couldn't warm to Coach Taylor at all.

    Marc Anthony has a healthy 3-0 lead with this contest expiring at 14.13

    Marc Anthony, thought his character dominated the show, even the accelerated 2nd season.

    Edited, too late.


    Jean -Luc, after Sisko the best captain


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,741 ✭✭✭✭TheValeyard


    Captain Jean Luc Picard, the master of diplomacy and great speeches.

    Picard because he's class


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,943 ✭✭✭✭the purple tin


    Picard, one of the best captains ever.


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


    Suzanne, because I'm not a trekky, and she's an interesting character. I nearly nominated someone (not her though) from OITNB but it didn't make the cut.


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


    Picard for the memes


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,216 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Picard Treks on!! 5-2 the result there.

    3 have come and gone, with 1 left standing. Can Twin Peaks get a character into Round 2 at the first time of asking?

    Klaus - Never seen his show but at least it's not Twin Peaks.


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


    Argh, love them both, would be happy to see either go through

    Gonna throw Klaus my vote so it ain't a whitewash

    Coop all the way.
    Mr C and Dougie Jones as well, you get three characters in one.


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


    Dale Cooper
    We need at least one twin peaks character through and he is the best one


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,942 ✭✭✭✭ShaneU


    Cooper, came back 20 years later and was still brilliant

    Special Agent Cooper leads 3-2 with this match expiring at 14.59

    O'Brien because nommed him and first Irish character on US TV that wasn't a stereotype

    Fitz. The original criminal profiler on tv. Coletrane did a great job playing him.

    Gonna say Fitz
    More to the character then the other

    Colm Meaney's gonna kick all your asses.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,071 ✭✭✭Notmything


    Fitz, was only young but memory tells me cracker was must-see tv

    O'Brien was underused on Star Trek and the early seasons of ds9. but had some good episodes as his character was fleshed out.

    But have to give it to Fitz


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,216 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Fitz has a 4-1 lead on Miles here, still time for that to change though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,042 ✭✭✭✭L'prof


    Eenie MEANEY miney...Miles O’Brien. An Irish Trekkie, what a man

    Fitz - not because he's an Adonis but because he's a smoking, drinking, gambling genius. And Robbie Coltrane was a local in the the supermarket I worked in as a teenager and a lovely fella.
