Seconded.

Save the first series, that was awful.

thirded and the todd wouldn't be in the top 25 or maybe even 50

Barney Stinson - How I met your mother

 

[Salvation]

Michael Richards was probably better, in hindsight, after Larry David took his character to a whole new level with Curb. You can see traces of Richard Lewis too in George Costanza

You got that mixed up. Larry is more like George with some Kramer thrown in.

Nope, I'm all clear Crappy. When I meant 'his character' in meant George Costanza. Kramer was a better character than George. Some of Lewis' stand-ups give you a good indication of his influence in polishing George's character.

Alan Partridge.

I think you miss the point of the thread, it's asking for funny charachters!!

 

[Desert Eagle]

Cartman.

 

[Adebesi]

One that has come along in the time since this thread for me is Micky out of Shameless. This season he has come into his own. One of the funniest characters on TV at the moment.

[MUFCgal]

Sacha Baron Cohen, the man's a genius. I watched Borat the other week for the first time, I've never laughed so hard in my life

Borat is one of the funniest characters I've ever seen in any show or film, fantastic

Can't wait for Sacha's new film Bruno.

 

[Adebesi]

I really didnt like Borat when he was first introduced in the Ali G show. But yes, that film is funny. Much funnier than I expected.

 

[Jon]

Tobias Funke from Arrested Development always cracks me up.

 

[MUFCgal]

I really didnt like Borat when he was first introduced in the Ali G show. But yes, that film is funny. Much funnier than I expected.

It's the real reactions of the people he encounters or interviews. They believe he's Borat and he just rips the hell out of them, I thought the feminist women were ready to lynch him
