It does bode well for those characters to get to the business end of proceedings

Indeed- and also, I think a professional approach is called for when people vote in this Telly tournament. Personally speaking, I couldn't give a Falk who wins - I'll be sitting here enjoying the summer weather, eating my Magnum ice cream as it progresses. I just hope I can Garner some additional knowledge of such shows that i've enjoyed through the years- it will be an historical document that people can look back on the boards Files in years to come. :pac:

Kick ass female lead from a kick ass awesome show. Exactly what the tournament is about.

Capt'n Midnight

Round 18

Lieutenant Columbo Columbo - brilliantly done

Though "There's something that bothers me" as even I could figure who the murderer was most of the time. :pac:

Round 18

Lieutenant Columbo - Columbo

It's hard to pretend to be inept when Columbo aint

Also Starring LeVar Burton

Buffy Summers

She Saved The World... A Lot

Buffy, because I don't know the others and haven't known most mentioned in the last few pages!

Angus MacGyver MacGyver

MacGyver could take rays belt buckle, and a trimming of thomas' moustache and with the aid of his trusty penknife, he could fashion a small incendiary device to free himself from this round.

Round 19

Angus MacGyver - MacGyver

He could make almost anything out of little

Round 20

William Bodie - The Professionals

Cool, hard, pretty, witty, coldblooded, bird-puller par excellence. What a man :pac:

Also Starring LeVar Burton

Jessica Fletcher - one of my nominations and the obvious winner of the entire tournament. You don't get anymore badass than Angela Lansbury.

Proper old-school detective who always lets the bad guys think they've gotten away with it before nailing them.

Round 20

Another of my nominations, as kick-ass as you'll find, makes Doyle look caring and sensitive.

Thomas Magnum Magnum PI

Another vote for the magnificent moustache please

pc7

Columbo - he always seemed so bumbling but had them down from the start. Very clever series.

Oh this one is hard, I love Magnum but he really just was a beach bum. But it was a good show, his shorts were obscene but he was sexy as hell.

Poirot most definitely one is the best portrayals of a character ever. Complex cases, intricate details and his little peculiarities made him one of the best.

Never forget to invite Jessica to the party if you want a bit of fun.

Jessica Fletcher - used to love to binge on episodes of Murder, She Wrote.


Not overly familiar with the others anyway.

But Doyle is caring and sensitive :P

Bodie V's Doyle- Bodie wins hands down. But Doyle V's Magnum? Now there's a battle- "Great British sensitive" or "Hawaiian sensitive" ?

Columbo beats Buffy hands down:

An Emmy award for Buffy for "Make-up" and "Music" - I mean really, how is that "kickass"

Columbo:
13 Emmys, two Golden Globe Awards, two Edgar Awards


I rest my case.

Round 18
Buffy. Her kick ass crime fighting seemed to be centred around saving the world, as opposed to stopping a few bad guys.


Round 19
MacGyver. Give the man a bag of peanut m&m's, a paperclip, some cable-ties, and a wrist-watch and he'd end up making a fully functional oxy-cutter to escape from a locked walk in freezer on his way to stop the baddies.


Round 20

William Bodie, Ran guns for both sides during the congo war, mercenary in Angola, and dubious activities in Jordan before going back to England, joining the Paras, passing selection for the SAS and the moving to CI5. A proper all action hero.

Capt'n Midnight

Round 19 - can't we keep all three , please ?

Did you know you plug a sulfuric acid leak with chocolate ?

And a fat lot of good that did for the world and the state it's in now :P

Capt'n Midnight

Round 20

Jessica Fletcher Murder She Wrote - AKA the Cabot Cove Killer. a me-too copy of Miss Maple and even the TV version of Miss Marple wasn't worth watching compared to the performance of Margaret Rutherford


Hercule Poirot Poirot - a touch of class and any excuse to show art deco or art nouveau






William Bodie The Professionals -on the bench
