[QUOTE="Mel O'Drama, post: 94702, member: 23"] I've gone for characters that pretty much grated on me in some way from beginning to end. Most of my choices are influenced by the way they're portrayed rather than how the character behaves, so I've avoided Cellini-esque instances where a replacement actor renders a previously good character unwatchable (apart from my #1 choice, which I view as a completely different entity. Plus it's the first time I've got to include TNT Dallas). [B] [/B] [B] 1.

Less than special mentions for: Michael Culhane - [I]Dynasty[/I] Matt Cantrell - [I]Dallas [/I] I especially enjoyed the way she walked off like a footballer at the end of the scene.
