I agree with a fair few of those, especially most of the top 20, although how Edward Cullen got in and Stewie Griffin didn't I don't know. Edward is about as interesting as a cucumber. Maybe a marrow.

Very interesting. I probably agreed with 31 of those choices (Top 100 lists are so difficult to make!!). I tend to find villains more memorable; just off the top of my head:
Anton Chigurh (No Country For Old Men) Vern Schillinger (Oz) Those two were awesome!!

Rachel on Friends was one of the dullest characters in pop culture history. Number six? Hardly. Carrie Bradshaw from Sex and the City as well and the omission of Agent Dale Cooper from Twin Peaks is a disgrace.
