Jill Hennesy on L&O when she played Clair what'sername. Brains and looks. Every time I think of her..........I gotta go now.

I posted an image but it was blocked - limited bandwidth. Is this the Jill Hennessy that you had in mind? She has a twin sister, you know ...

Jill Hennessy as Claire Kincaid, on "Law & Order"

I see Dan Fielding made it on the list. Another "read before you post" self admonition is due. Probably should've searched for "Bull" before I post this but...

Barney Fife #36 and Ed Norton #20? Too low on both. They both belong in the top ten, and probably the top five. I agree with Archie, Kramden, and Lucy being in the top five, but I'd put Barn and Norton up there too. Homer could slide to #6, since he's only animated. :-)

Yes, I think "Denny Crane" is great. I've never been a Shatner fan, but he is great in this part. Spader is excellent as well. In fact, I think that BL is better than the much-vaunted DH.

Hey, I can't think of all of them. But, Eddie Haskel certainly deserves to be on the list.

Lou Grant is a surprise at 35; thought he'd be much higher. I see George Jefferson made it, but "Weezie" Jefferson didn't.

I agree and Tony soprana has not been around long enough plus he is on HBO so not many people get to see him. I hardly think he is top ten material.

Worldwide would have to include Daid Haseelhoff of Baywatch. I think Baywatch is the most watched show ever.

Yeah, Roseanne the crotch-grabber was obviously an affirmative action choice.
