The Great TV Meme Day 14 -OR- I'm Gonna Have To Think About This One

The Great TV Meme Day 14 - Favourite Male Character.

I'm declaring the first tie in the lineup: Marcus Cole (Babylon 5) and The 11th (!) Doctor (Doctor Who).

I have always loved Marcus. He is loyal, brave, noble and very, very snarky. Plus he has a British accent. And a Minbari fighting pike. Marcus = awesome, and I think he might have been the origin of my deep love of Snarky British Guys (SBG)



(Sadly there is a major lack of Marcus clips on YouTube)


Now for the other winner.

When the BBC announced that Matt Smith was going to replace David Tennant as The Doctor I was completely baffled. Matt Smith is younger than me! His forehead is huge! And WHAT is with that hair?? Needless to say, I was highly skeptical. But I was also highly skeptical about Tennant and he turned out to be brilliant. And Matt? Matt is turning out to be even more brilliant. I have rarely been so pleasantly surprised. Well done, Mr. Smith. Well done.

(The best thing I could find is a fan made music video, but it's actually quite good)
