top ten male & female tv characters of all time
Alright, this was like pulling teeth. 
juniperlane asked for my top ten female tv characters. SOPHIE'S MFING CHOICE, GUYS.
1 // Sydney Bristow
2 // Irina Derevko
3 // CJ Cregg
4 // Lisa Cuddy
5 // Donna Noble
6 // Pam Beasley
7 // Adelle DeWitt
8 // Penny (Big Bang Theory)
9 // Robin Scherbatsky
10 // Catherine Willows/Tami Taylor/Kate Harper/Dani Reese/Alex Eames/Liz Lemon/Temperance Brennan/Cam Saroyan/Emily Gilmore/Felicity Porter/Laura Roslin/Kahlan Amnell SERIOUSLY I CANNOT DECIDE BETWEEN THE REST OF THESE LADIES.
As a note: top 9 were not necessarily picked for their BAMFiness, though they are all quite badass, but rather how much I absolutely adore them.
I realized I didn't have a male list, too, so I did one of those as well. Because I had a lot of free time at work today.
1 // Gregory House
2 // Sheldon Cooper
3 // Toby Ziegler
4 // Josh Lyman
5 // Tenth Doctor
6 // Jack Bristow
7 // Seeley Booth
8 // Barney Stinson
9 // Topher Brink
10 // Mal Reynolds/Saul Tigh/Wesley Windham-Price/Jim Halpert/Charlie Crews/Leo McGarry/Will Pope/Simon Tam/Lafayette Reynolds/Wilf (Doctor Who)/Robert Goren/Eric Taylor/Rupert Giles I REFUSE TO DO THIS ANYMORE IT'S LIKE PICKING A FAVORITE CHILD.
There are lots of awesome characters I left off both lists, and I'm sure that some of them are glaringly obvious and I'm going to burn in hell, BUT. For now this is how it is.
I LIKE COLDPLAY. DEAL WITH IT.
