Mine are House and Donald Draper.

Tony Soprano and Walter White.

I'd probably add Jessie Pinkman to my list as #3. Like Walter but Jessies' comedic relief at times is preferable to me to Walters' 100% seriousness

I could name countless Star Trek cast members from several of the series. They were generally very good casting their shows.

I haven't really watched too much TV of late and didn't watch a whole lot as a kid either.

Colt Seavers
'Howling Mad' Murdock
Dexter

I don't thing they could pull off the Hop Sing character in today's climate...

:laugh2: Lots of things we'll never see again. Some for the best. I'll have to show a certain someone Hop Sing.

PS: Didn't bother at all. He speaks Cantonese BTW.

Prolly not (in general), though they're doing a pretty good job going "old school" with the portrayal of certain ethnic characters in "Hell on Wheels" on AMC. I've liked that show so far, too. :D

Loved the Hop Sing character and how he fit into the mix. Victor Sen Yung, who played the character, actually speaks English perfectly. Caught a snippet of a TV interview w/him not too long ago... surprised me at first.

Here's a "Happy Birthday" tribute to VSY, replaying bits of him as Hop Sing in Bonanza.

No: 765 (http://www.coxisms.com/765/)

Any other day I’d say no, but today I’m gonna go ahead and just say no.


No: 745 (http://www.coxisms.com/745/)

You’re giving orders to me? OMG, Barboo, you make me want to LOL. I just discovered text messaging.
I know I’m a little late to the game, but that doesn’t mean that you’re any less of a G.A.B.P.I.T.A.W.M.W.
number 2 D. ”Giant Annoying Bangsy Pain In The *** Who Makes me Want to Die.”


No: 741 (http://www.coxisms.com/741/)

Don’t say hate, Gandhi, you keep throwing that word around so much it’s lost all of its meaning. Now I
have to find another word stronger than hate to describe how I feel about others. I mega-loathe you all.
Good day.


No: 736 (http://www.coxisms.com/736/)

I’m just gonna go ahead and tip myself for calling this one. Thank you, me!


No: 713 (http://www.coxisms.com/713/)

Listen, Newbie, you’re not a completely, terribly, horrible, incompetent doctor. While I would never let
any blood relatives be your patient, if it was someone that I knew, an acquaintance, I might be OK with
you treating them.

Bunker was for the most part, on before Rockford came on.
