    You could just throw the whole cast of 'Archer' in there, they're all fantastic. Even Ron.

    And yeah, it's alphabetized! That's how I roll.

    I'm not saying he is on my list, but Doakes was a great character and well acted.

    I agree. Too bad they had to kill him off. Wish they could've kept him around as the snooping bloodhound until the final season ya know. They should'a whacked LaGuerta early on and let Doakes become Lieutenant instead. I thought David Zayas [Batista] was in over his head on a top television show and better suited for a B horror movie. Jamie Batista was on the show for 34 episodes!! Whut?! WHY?! What was so special about her that required 34 episodes?!". Thought she was so bland that it made for filler space. Give me an up and coming actress with a real future rather than an acting nobody the previous 14 years. Ditto for the mistake that was Quinn and his ten pounds of makeup. And ditto for the 25 year nobody, Rita, who was so annoying and overdramatic I wanted to strangle her myself. Even her kids I thought could use a nudge down a flight of stairs.

    How this cast was nominated by the Screen Actor's Guild for 4 straight "Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Drama Series" is besides me.

    DCS Christopher Foyle - played by Michael Kitchen - Foyle's War - If you like mysteries/Wartime drama or just great TV then watch the series. One of the best series in memory.

    Adrian Monk - played by Tony Shalhoub - Monk - Hopefully that show doesn't need a recommendation but Adrian wasn't just comedy fodder (like Shawn and Gus from Psych!) but portrayed a real character you knew and who stayed with you. Excellent character, excellent story, excellent series.

    How could I forget Stevie? Despite being a total idiot, there was still some serious character progression with him throughout the first three seasons.

    Dexter was a book before it was a series.

    Also, I'm not sure House should count since he's Sherlock Holmes.
