[QUOTE="James from London, post: 273035, member: 22"] Phew, this was the toughest round. It's only when you try to whittle it down to twenty that you realise how many remarkable series there were during the 00s. I'm tempted to say that [I]of course[/I] this was the best decade for TV thus far. But one isn't necessarily gonna feel massively nostalgic about it if one grew up during an earlier period. It's that old complaint: "It's not like it was in my day." Of course it isn't -- that's because it was [I]your day[/I], when one was more open and susceptible to new stuff. Doesn't mean things are automatically worse just because one's gotten older and less receptive. My list is roughly chronological cos otherwise I'd be here all week: 1. Sydney Bristow ALIAS 2. Billy Chenowith SIX FEET UNDER 3. D'Angelo Barksdale THE WIRE 4. Gaius Baltar BATTLESTAR GALACTICA 5. Tim THE OFFICE (UK) 6. Shane Vendrell THE SHIELD 7. Danny Baldwin CORONATION STREET 8. Ralph Cifaretto THE SOPRANOS 9. Tobias Fünke ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT 10. Charles Logan 24 11. Lady Honoria Dedlock BLEAK HOUSE 12. Max Branning EASTENDERS 13. Debra Morgan DEXTER 14. Pete Campbell MAD MEN 15. Wilfred Mott DOCTOR WHO 16. Matt Saracen FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS 17. Tracy Jordan 30 ROCK 18. Gina Toll IN TREATMENT 19. Jesse Pinkman BREAKING BAD 20. Cary Agos THE GOOD WIFE [/QUOTE]
