your top 10 favorite characters from DIFFERENT shows
 

okay your list for your favorite to 10 characters of all time. the only stipulation is no more than 1 character from a show. so no one (including me) can list the cast of sports night, west wing, friends, etc. order them or not, mine won't be. here's my start (pardon my lack of full names or names at all):

jeremy - sports night
josh lymon - the west wing
joey tribiani - friends
coach - cheers
harry - night court
the todd - scrubs
faith - buffy the vampire slayer
mr. feeney - boy meets world
