After much careful deliberation, I am going to change my initial statement from Ralph Wiggum or George Michael Bluth to the one, the only, the inscrutable GOB, George Oscar Bluth. Why?

"Illusions, Michael. A 'trick' is something a whore does for money." [spies several young children listening to him, smiles] "Or cocaine!"

Simply amazing. Not convinced? How about:

"Oh, that is just great. And now I'm expected to crawl back on top of Kitty and do my thing again! I mean, this family runs into problems, and it's, 'Oh, let's have Gob fuck our way outta this!'"

Genius, pure genius. Who wouldn't love a wretched magician who steals from his siblings, has no friends, sleeps with hookers and vengefully screws any woman he even suspects his brother to be interested in? Yet, despite all that, he is somehow a sympathetic character; you pity him. His misery is fully on display.

...or this guy...

"There was a guy.. he was very blurry"

Yeah, Malcom Reynolds is currently my favorite character of all time .. but with only 14 episodes its so hard to claim that he is the greatest character.

Realistically,

1. Heathcliff Huxtable (The Cosby Show)
2. Archie Bunker (All In The Family)
3. Arthur Fonzarelli (Happy Days)
4. Angel (Angel)
5. Jimmy James (Newsradio)

honorable mentions go to: Murphy Brown (Murphy Brown), Dr. Mark Green (ER), Will Smith (Fresh Prince of Bel-Air), Malcom Reynolds (Firefly), Maude (Maude Findlay), Homer Simpson (The Simpsons), Fred Sanford (Sanford and Son), Barney Fife (Andy Griffith Show), George Costanza (Seinfeld), Bob Newhart (Newhart), Alex P. Keaton (Family Ties), Mike Seaver (Growing Pains), Arnold Jackson (Diff'rent Strokes), Steve Urkel (Family Matters), George Jefferson (All In The Family/The Jeffersons), Woody Boyd (Cheers), Sideshow Bob (The Simpsons)... I could go on and on it seems.

Stupid Man: I'm sorry to interrupt. I just need to know if the Holbine Clan history was here. It was supposed to be faxed to my office.

Wesley: It can wait.

Stupid Man: These guys are really important. I just need— I mean, the whole company can't be working Miss Burkle's case.
