Lists about the most memorable fictional characters in film, TV, and literature that will stick in our minds forever.

Female Characters

Jane Eyre

Some of the greatest characters in literature are women and girls, but which ones are the very best?&nbsp;From the evil to the undeniably perfect, the always strong to those who those who <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/fictional-characters-who-never-give-up/ranker-characters" target="_blank">never give up</a>, these are the greatest female characters from literature of all genres. This list includes the best female characters of all ages, like the youthful girls Matilda (Matilda) and Hermione Granger (Harry Potter) to the ever-so-adult Evelyn Couch (Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe). We&#39;re even ranking <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/fictional-characters-who-are-immortal/ranker-characters" target="_blank">immortal female characters</a>, like Galadriel from Lord of the Rings and the goddess Athena you read about in Greek mythology.

Why do female literary characters stay with readers long after they&rsquo;ve finished reading the novels these characters are featured in? Often, it&rsquo;s due to the intimacy with which readers have come to know a character. Jane Eyre (and all of her desires and feelings), for example, becomes so real to readers that they feel as if they&rsquo;ve met and understood this amazing female character. So many people relate to fiery, independent Jo March that her marriage at the end of Little Women feels like a betrayal - something <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/jo-professor-bhaer-relationship-little-women/bailey-brown" target="_blank">the 2019 film adaptation addresses head-on</a>.

Other times, readers love female characters in literature because of the audacity of their actions. Scarlett O&rsquo;Hara (Gone with the Wind) was exceedingly bold for a woman of her time, while Madame Defarge (A Tale of Two Cities) is an exemplar of tireless villainy. Some of the most popular female literary characters manage to embody both wholesome and defiant, becoming reflections of the complex nature of women.

For the wide range of personality traits we find in these <a href="http://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/best-female-tv-characters-of-all-time?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">great female characters</a> (and the audacious actions they&rsquo;ve performed), these women have earned their titles as the <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/best-female-movie-characters/ranker-characters?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">best female characters</a> in literature. They may be young or old, charming or black-hearted, but they are all memorable. Whether you love them or love to hate them, all the famous fictional heroines are here in this list of the best female characters in literary history.&nbsp;

Most Annoying

Steve Urkel

You know them. You hate them. Honestly, who knows&nbsp;why these characters even exist. Did someone think they were funny? Maybe adorable? Seriously? Like fingernails on a chalkboard, these annoying characters take teeth-gritting perseverance and expert channel-switching to avoid. Usually an attempt at comic relief, these are the characters you can&#39;t even love to hate. You just hate them. There are even some <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/whiniest-heroes-movies/ashley-reign" target="_blank">movie heroes whose incessant whininess</a> is enough to drive us all crazy.

Who is the most annoying movie or TV character of all time? We may never know. But this list will help us get a step closer (and let you know which movies and shows to avoid). Do annoying movie characters like Jar Jar Binks make Star Wars not worth watching? Maybe not. But we definitely won&#39;t be seeing any spinoff sequels starring the annoying little guy.

Is Barney the most annoying TV character ever? Or do you hate Screech more? No one can blame you for finding these characters obnoxious and terrible, but to crown the worst offender, you&#39;ve got to make your voice heard. Vote for the MOST annoying characters, rank them as you see fit... and be sure to add any that are missing. After you are done, head over and vote on the <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/most-annoying-kid-characters-of-all-time/desertrat89?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">most annoying kid</a> characters in pop culture history.

Fictional Characters

There’s nothing like that jaw-dropping moment in a film that smacks you in the face. It’s <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/anime-plot-twist-moments/anna-lindwasser?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">the plot twist</a> the audience never saw coming. It’s that part of the story where everything comes together and the narrative finally makes perfect sense. Oftentimes, a plot twist or the big third act reveal, is the revelation that a character never actually existed. We find out the protagonist’s best pal is just an imaginary friend, or the film’s antagonist is nothing more than a deluded manifestation. Here are the greatest characters who never actually existed.Imaginary characters are the plot twist, the schizophrenic delusion, or the subconscious taking hold of the hero’s sanity. Many of these stories will not and can never reach their conclusion until the protagonist realizes their instability, and either battles against their delusion, like in Fight Club, or accepts their mental insanity, like in A Beautiful Mind.Some of the characters on this list existed at one time, just not during the film’s timeline. Of course, Norman Bates’s mom was a real person. She was just already dead when Norman was parading around killing hotel guests in the shower while dressed in a wig and his mother’s dress. Make your voice heard. Vote up the imaginary characters you think made the biggest impact.

Feminism

Daenerys Targaryen

Looking for more strong women characters in your life? This list of awesome <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/best-female-characters-in-literature?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">women in literature</a>, TV, and film has all kinds. One owns the love of dragons with the desire to become a queen. Another wields a sword in battle to seek atonement for the mistakes of her past, and help the weak combat the oppressive. Yet another fights against entertainment stereotypes and still others speak up for themselves and for women - and people of any gender - everywhere.

These females are the fighters, they are brave in battle, and stand up against injustices in the workplace. They protect and serve, yet never complain. These are the strongest, most bad*ss female characters in the history of film, books, and television.

This Ranker list has it all, from detectives to textile workers. Good girl characters form unions and sometimes need to stand alone in order to unite. It&#39;s not always easy for a female to lead, to upend media stereotypes, to essentially be a heroine when no one thinks that you can win. But not every hero needs to stand six feet tall with the ability to bench press 300 pounds. Don&rsquo;t think that a chick can save the day? Just ask Sarah Connor how many cyborgs she&rsquo;s terminated.

We salute the many awesome fictional heroines with this list. From the courtroom to the battleground, these are the coolest, strongest, not to be messed with&nbsp;female characters on the silver screen, the small screen, and the pages of great literature. Be sure to make your voice heard and upvote the greatest, most memorable female characters.

El Muerto

For this poll we've created a list of the greatest zombies of all time, featuring zombies you know from movies, television, video games and more. Of course your favorite cartoon zombies are included, but this list doesn't only feature animated characters that can talk. If your favorite fictional zombie is missing, don't be salty- just add it to the list so that other people can vote for for it too!This list has a variety of characters, like El Muerto and Zombie, in it. Who is the number one zombie that people just can't get enough of? Scroll down and find out who the masses voted for.

Atticus Finch

Perseverance is one of the most admirable traits a person can have and it’s quite common in fiction to have a protagonist who deals with adversity at every turn. These characters might watch the people they love die, while facing hurdle after hurdle. The average person would cut their losses and give up. Since these fictional characters are so extraordinary, they never give up, despite every hardship they face.In literature, determination shows up in some of the <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/best-movie-characters-of-all-time?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">most famous characters</a> of all time. Odysseus traveled for decades, facing monsters and war in order to get home to his wife. Captain Ahab searched for a mythical whale, even when he was labeled crazy for doing so. In supernatural fiction, characters <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/movies-tv-shows-like-harry-potter/ranker-recs?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">like Harry Potter</a>, Frodo, and Buffy are given plenty of opportunities to abandon their quests, but choose to press on. Practically every superhero character is also imbued with this admirable trait.As rare as perseverance is in real life, it’s a common character trait in some of the best fiction, from television to books. Vote up the <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/most-famous-fictional-character-from-each-state/matthew-lavelle?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">best fictional characters</a> below, those who never gave up, even when things were tough.

Mark Sloan

We all remember losing our favorite characters -- Elliot Stabler (Law &amp; Order SVU), Mark Greene (ER), Diane Chambers (Cheers), Fox Mulder (The X Files), Kalinda Sharma and Will Gardner (The Good Wife), Mathew Crawley (Downton Abbey) and practically everyone we started to emotionally invest in on Game of Thrones or The Walking Dead. They get killed off, leave town, die of a terminal illness, get kidnapped, or sometimes just get transported to another world. Regardless of how they were written off (or why the actor chose to leave), they leave a gaping void in the show they built. This list is about ranking the greatest losses, whether the characters were good or evil. We wish the characters would have stayed because there were so many more stories to tell.&nbsp;Without them, the TV show went on but was never quite the same.&nbsp;

poll

List of the top fictional singers in television and film. In the last few years, Gleeks and music lovers alike have gone mad for the fictional singing and dancing crew 'New Directions', made up of some of the most promising and entertaining vocalists on the small and silver screens. Up and coming pop stars like Rachel Berry and Kurt Hummel aren't the first fictional musical talents, however, as fictitious rock stars and bands have been singing and dancing across our screens for decades. Who are the greatest <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/greatest-fictional-rock-stars/ranker-music?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">fictional rock stars</a> of all time? Music, television and film enthusiasts could argue who is the all-time best fictional singer forever. Of course, there is such a diversity of fictional singers that it can be hard to pick out just one. Sassy singing characters like Lorelei Lee in 'Gentlemen Prefer Blondes' are hard to compare with the iconic Johnny Cash in 'Walk the Line', or the captivating voice of Maria in 'The Sound of Music'.Many of these eccentric fictional rock stars are so talented and have such exciting characters that we sometimes forget that they are indeed fictional. Singers like Rayna James of 'Nashville' and David St. Hubbins of 'This Is Spinal Tap' look and sound completely believable, with their influence resounding throughout modern pop culture.

Sherlock Holmes

We all like to fantasize and daydream about our favorite <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/fictional-characters-you-would-leave-your-woman-for/lisa-waugh?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">hot fictional characters</a>. Maybe you've struck some kind of a deal with your romantic partner - if Sam and Dean Winchester come to life, you're allowed a hall pass for the weekend. Or maybe you keep your passionate devotion to Fox Mulder or Han Solo on the down low. Whatever the case, it's fun to imagine what it would be like to spend time with one of these handsome fictional men. Categorizing them can be tricky, because some of these sexy, fictional dudes come with a lot of baggage. For example, we all know how sexy Christian Grey and Edward Cullen are, but would you REALLY want to deal with all of their weird emotional issues? Could you look past Loki's mischievous ways and look only to his righteous abs? Would Tony Stark's good looks be enough to drown out his extreme narcissism? These are the questions you'll have to answer as you pour over this list of fictional characters you'd leave your man for. How do your hot fictional characters skew? Are you more about the good guys, like Thor and Elliot Stabler, or do the bad boys get your blood flowing, like Spike from Buffy the Vampire Slayer? Or are you interested in just the right mix of Stiles, Sherlock Holmes, and Magic Mike? However your list stacks up, have fun picking and choosing the fictional characters you'd leave your man for. A little crush on someone you could never actually get with is completely healthy and normal. Vote up the hottest fictional male characters, and be sure to add any to the list that we may have forgotten!

Count Dracula

Immortality is a common theme in fiction. It often explores many different themes, from what it means to live forever, to what it’s like to see the world change around you. Many fictional immortal characters deal with eternal loneliness. Characters like The Doctor from &quot;Doctor Who&quot; and the vampire Lestat are constantly looking for companions to spend their eternal, never ending days with, even if they know the company is only temporary.Many fictional immortal characters are supernatural beings, such as vampires, highlanders, and aliens. The most famous immortal vampires include Dracula, Barnabas Collins, and practically the entire cast of &quot;True Blood,&quot; and &quot;Twilight.&quot;Other times immortality comes from a special, even magical source as in the cases of Dorian Gray, Ra’s al Ghul, and Jesse Tuck.Who is your favorite immortal character? This list features some of the most famous immortal characters to ever appear in fiction, whether it be books, TV, film, or comic books.

Generally, moviegoers&nbsp;and TV viewers&nbsp;are force fed a protagonist that they're supposed to root for no matter what, even if some of the things said protagonist does are objectively terrible. In fact, there are a ton of supposedly good characters who don't deserve a <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/movie-happy-endings-that-are-actually-sad/jacob-shelton&nbsp;" target="_blank">happy ending in movies</a>&nbsp;or TV. While <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/best-movies-where-guy-doesnt-get-girl/anncasano" target="_blank">movies where the loveable idiot&nbsp;doesn't&nbsp;get the girl</a>&nbsp;exist, there are far&nbsp;more shows and movies&nbsp;that end happily even when they shouldn't.It's not always about love. Sometimes, the heroes of the stories commit&nbsp;crimes for which they aren't punished at all. Sometimes, they're jerks who inexplicably get to keep their friends and family regardless of their heartless behavior.Here's a list of characters who don't&nbsp;deserve their happy endings.

Jim Stark

LA is chic and stylish with its movie stars and glitz. It’s a place of celluloid dreams and the legendary Walk of Fame.

Distinguishing Features

Daredevil

A list of fictional characters who are both blind and badass. These characters from film, TV, and comics aren't defined by their blindness, they're defined by their ability to mop the floor with you using fists, swords, or even their keen intellects. From Daredevil to Toph Beifong, they could all kick almost anybody's ass with their eyes closed.Whether they're heroes, villains, or somewhere in between, these characters may be blind, but they're far from disabled. They're hyper-capable, and they use their other senses for good or evil. Their lack of sight may drive their benevolence or fuel their drive to conquer, but any way you see it, they make for compelling characters with fascinating stories.&nbsp;&nbsp;Who’s the baddest of the bad in the land of sightless fictional characters? Let’s feel our way through it with this list. Vote up your favorite blind badasses below! Be warned, there are SPOILERS afoot!

Trans

Best Characters

Moe Howard

Wherever there's a young outsider or a bumbling protagonist, there's a bully. Bullies help our downtrodden teen/pre-teen become a hero; help them make the speech or the punch that inspires the slow clap from their peers, and forces them to learn to kick standing on one leg like a crane. There are a lot of memorable movies and TV shows that feature&nbsp;some of the most memorable bullies in pop culture. Those who have seen any of the Back to the Future movies can attest that anyone from the Tannen family, Biff, Griff or Buford &quot;Mad Dog,&quot; are great examples of memorable bullies.&nbsp;Bullies can come in any size or form. Wayne Arnold from The Wonder Years and Eddie Haskell from Leave it to Beaver are two very different, yet menacing bullies who at one point were considered the biggest bullies on TV.Vote here for the most iconic bullies from big and small screen (no book bullies, that's too much for one list).&nbsp;There's plenty of great choices so vote who takes home the title of biggest bully.&nbsp;

Some fictional characters are overly chatty. However, there are the rare few characters who never speak a word out loud. The reasons for these characters' silence differs tremendously. Sometimes the character is just an introspective person, such as Silent Bob. Sometimes the character doesn’t even have the ability to speak, such as animals like Snoopy, Gromit, and Pluto.Often a character’s silence is used as a comedic device. Harpo was the Marx brother famous for his mute reactions. Mr. Bean’s inability to talk is another example of silence used for humor, often stemming from misunderstandings. However, a lot of these characters use their silence for menacing purposes, as with Jason Voorhees, Michael Myers, and Ilyn Payne.Just because a character is silent doesn’t mean they’re dumb or don’t have anything to say. These silent fictional characters prove that. Who are your favorite characters who never speaks?

John Cage

A list of fictional lawyers you’d most want defending you. Do you know of a movie with a great lawyer in it? Do you wish some of the fictional lawyers were real so that you could have a great lawyer to defend your case? The fictional lawyers on this list are ranked in order of the most popular fictional lawyer to the least popular. If you don’t agree with the ranking, vote up the attorney you'd want on your side to see him or her rise in the rankings.If you have a really special fictional lawyer that you would love to have defending you, but you don’t see him or her on the list, add them below. Lawyers don’t have the best reputation, and often, it can be discouraging to watch movies where the lawyers confirm the punchlines for all those lawyer jokes.However, some fictional attorneys instill confidence and enthusiasm in the readers or viewers. Perry Mason, for instance, was a great lawyer who hardly ever lost a case. He also cared about his clients more than he cared about the money. Wouldn't it be wonderful if fictional lawyers like this existed in the real world?

On this list you’ll find all of the best fictional princes, from animated animals (Simba, The Lion King) to soap opera favorites (Richard Winslow, “Guiding Light”). They’re sometimes kind, sometimes cruel, but they never cease to intrigue and entertain fans – and for that, they’ve each earned a spot on this list of the greatest fictional princes of all time.What makes a fictional prince great? Fictional princes, after all, are fairly common in both written and visual mediums. Perhaps one characteristic of an amazing fictional prince is complexity, such as that found in Hamlet and his inner struggles. Although Hamlet’s story does not end well, it would be hard to debate that he isn’t memorable and enjoyable as a character, and his depth is a large part of what makes him interesting. Another attribute of the best fictional princes might be kindness, such as that evidenced by Legolas from J. R. R. Tolkien's legendarium. Or, at the opposite end of the spectrum, cruelty and arrogance – just think of Prince Joffrey Baratheon from George R. R. Martin’s <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/real-meaning-of-game-of-thrones-prince-that-was-promised/stephanroget?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">A Song of Ice and Fire</a> series and the hit TV show, &quot;Game of Thrones.&quot;The princes on this list have both good qualities and bad, but they’re all fan favorites, the best fictional princes from every fictional medium. Whether they’re loved for their selfless acts or their brutish ones, fans can’t get enough of these literary princes. Because of this, they’re all proudly included on this list of the greatest fictional princes. Cast your votes for the best fictional princes below.

Vera Louise Gorman-Novak

Charlie Brown

Charlie Brown (also known as Charles Brown, Esq. and nicknamed Chuck by Peppermint Patty) is the lead role of the comic strip Peanuts, syndicated in daily and Sunday newspapers in numerous countries all over the world. Depicted as a "lovable loser," Charlie Brown is one of the great American archetypes and a popular and widely recognized cartoon character. Charlie Brown is characterized as a person who frequently suffers, and as a result is usually nervous and lacks self-confidence. He shows both pessimistic and optimistic attitudes: on some days, he is reluctant to go out because his day might just be spoiled, but on others, he hopes for the best and tries as much as he can to accomplish things. He is easily recognized by his trademark zigzag patterned shirt. There is only one exception:  whenever he's a costumed character, he wears a red baseball cap on top of his head most of the time, rather than just wearing a white one during baseball seasons in comic strips and animation.
The character's creator, Charles M. Schulz, said of the character that "[He] must be the one who suffers because he is a caricature of the average person. Most of us are much more acquainted with losing than winning." Despite this, Charlie Brown does not always suffer, as he has experienced some happy moments and victories through the years, and he has sometimes uncharacteristically shown self-assertiveness despite his frequent nervousness. Schulz also said: "I like to have Charlie Brown eventually be the focal point of almost every story." Charlie Brown is the only character to have been a part of the strip from the beginning to the end of its 50-year run.
Lee Mendelson, producer of the majority of the Peanuts television specials, has said of Charlie Brown that "He was, and is, the ultimate survivor in overcoming bulliness—Lucy or otherwise."Charlie Brown's birth date is October 30. He is four years old in a strip originally published Nov. 3, 1950, putting his birth in 1946 and making him and his cohort part of the first wave of Baby Boomers. He ages very slowly in the strip's floating timeline, eventually settling at around eight years old. A strip published on April 3, 1971 suggests he was born around 1963 (setting up the gag that when he is 21, it will be 1984).  Initially Charlie Brown suggests he lives in an apartment with his grandmother occupying the one above his; a few years into the strip, he moves to a house with a back yard.

Charlie Bucket

Charlie Bucket is a fictional character from the 1971 film Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory.

Chuckie Finster

Charles Crandall "Chuckie" Finster is a fictional character from the Nickelodeon animated television series' Rugrats and All Grown Up!. He is Tommy Pickles' best friend. The character was originally voiced by Christine Cavanaugh until 2001 when Nancy Cartwright took over the role following Cavanaugh's retirement. Cartwright had previously guest-starred in the Rugrats episode "Showdown at Teeter-Totter Gulch" as the voice of the "Junk Food Kid" in 1992.
He has red hair and his catchphrase is "I don't know; maybe this isn't such a good idea.".
Chuckie is the third oldest out of the six main Rugrats at two. He is distinguished from the others by his irrational fear of particular objects, most notably the "guy on the oatmeal box" and clowns. He is also the only original Rugrat who is left-handed until Dil Pickles was shown to be left handed in All Grown Up, and the only one besides Angelica and Susie who has spoken an intelligible word to adults during the Rugrats series.

After being expelled from Juilliard School, Charlie moved back to Los Angeles with the intention of becoming a film composer. He met a commercial producer who listened to Charlie's work and thus, Charlie began his career writing jingles for a living. His most famous composition is the Maple Loops song.

Mr. Burns

Charles Montgomery "Monty" Burns, usually referred to as Mr. Burns, is a recurring character in the animated television series The Simpsons, and is voiced by Harry Shearer. Burns is the evil owner of the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant and is also Homer Simpson's boss. He is attended at almost all times by Mr. Smithers, his loyal and sycophantic aide, advisor, confidant and secret admirer.
Although originally conceived as a one-dimensional, recurring villain who might occasionally enter the Simpsons' lives and wreak some sort of havoc, Burns' popularity has led to his repeated inclusion in episodes. He is a stereotype of corporate America in his unquenchable desire to increase his own wealth and power, inability to remember his employees' names and lack of concern for their safety and well-being. Reflecting his advanced age, Burns is given to expressing dated humor, making references to Jazz Age popular culture, and aspiring to apply obsolete technology to everyday life. Conan O'Brien has called Mr. Burns his favorite character to write for, due to his arbitrarily old age and extreme wealth.
