How this isn't a dead heat between Tony and Walter is kind of surprising.

I love T as well, but I can't go as far to say if I only get to watch one guy it is him.

I think if we reverse Walter White and Tony Soprano right now, the FFA has nailed this (with the exception of Bundy not making the finals).

No, I think you could reasonably debate either of them for the W here. My point is, is George Constanza comfortably in the lead shtick vs. either of Tony/WW, depending on your opinion there?

I heard a soundbyte from Raiders of the Lost Ark on the radio yesterday. This does not qualify Harrison Ford in greatest vocalist competitions.

But if it did, I would have voted for Rutger Hauer.

"You ask me to have lunch, tell me you slept with Elaine, and then say you're not in the mood for details. Now you listen to me. I want details and I want them right now. I don't have a job, I have no place to go. You're not in the mood? Well you get in the mood!"

Wait, everyone does have my opinion? What the #### is wrong with you people!

Gotta be Homer.

Listening to James Gandolfini wheeze and gasp through the final two seasons of The Sopranos was unbearable.

Tony Soprano is the only character in this list who ISN'T unique. It's a lot easier to create yet another mob character than to completely invent something new like Simpson, White, Bunker, or Costanza.

This is very close to me but I went with White. As a character, he's the most interesting and complex. Bunker is a close 2nd. Simpson and Constanza aren't that far off but when I think of them I think of funny joke writing rather than a trait of the character itself if that makes any sense.

That's an interesting point. It's easy to see Costanza and then think that Larry David on Curb is basically the same character, just in the lead role.

Agree, really good point. If we're talking uniqueness of character + acting in the role, will have to change my vote to WW.

Archie Bunker FTW.

Good point. Besides with Homer you get the bonus of the early episodes where he sounds like Walter Matthau.
