TV Characters

In the era of fairly accurate historical dramas like The Crown and Downton Abbey, it&rsquo;s no secret that many television characters are directly based on real historical figures. Equally as often, however, thin historical homages are hidden within popular TV shows - characters that are real-life people in everything but name. Sometimes, of course, it&rsquo;s the TV villains that are based on people.

Somehow, a <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/tv-characters-based-on-real-people/lisa-waugh" target="_blank">television antagonist based on a real person</a> is more impactful than when it&rsquo;s one of the good guys. Knowing that the same character stalking the heroes of our favorite TV shows once stalked - or, occasionally, still stalks - our own world is a terrifying thought, and one that gives brand new meaning to the horrors of reality television.&nbsp;

A look at real and fictional wedding dresses worn by characters, cartoons, celebrities, and even royalty all around the world.

White Weddings

Entertainment

Television weddings rarely go off without a hitch. Sometimes the groom doesn&rsquo;t show up. Other times he gets poisoned at the reception. In rare occasions, the bride decides she doesn&rsquo;t want to go through with the whole event and bolts. But regardless of the particulars, weddings make for great TV. These special episodes celebrate relationships that viewers have been rooting for&nbsp;seasons &ndash; maybe even since the beginning of the series. They&rsquo;re <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-movies-to-watch-while-drinking/anncasano?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">fun to watch</a>, emotional, and&nbsp;memorable.

But, plot points aside, there&#39;s another factor that makes these episodes especially watchable: the wedding dresses. These are the best TV wedding dresses of all time, perfect for admiring, envying, and gasping over from the comfort of the couch. From Blair to Charlotte to CeCe to Penny, this list rounds up the very best wedding dresses on TV, even the <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-goth-wedding-dresses/samantha-dillinger" target="_blank">goth wedding gowns</a>&nbsp;and <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-nerdy-wedding-dresses/dani-porter" target="_blank">nerdy dresses</a>.

Big actors often have&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/most-notoriously-difficult-actors-to-work-with/celebrity-lists" target="_blank">equally big egos</a>,&nbsp;and when those egos are forced to compete for airtime, jokes, and accolades, it can <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/co-stars-who-hated-each-other/jacob-shelton" target="_blank">understandably lead to friction</a>. Some of the best <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/movie-friends-who-hated-each-other/megan-summers" target="_blank">cinematic buddies were&nbsp;at each other&#39;s throats</a> during filming, and television is no different.

Making a TV show can be a grueling marathon, especially if the show is popular and lasts for several seasons. In this crucible, it frequently seems that off-screen relationships between co-stars develop in one of two ways: They either bond over their shared circumstances and the cast becomes like a family, or they grind away at each other&#39;s nerves and&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/tv-couples-who-hated-each-other-in-real-life/donn-saylor" target="_blank">form&nbsp;bitter, barely-contained feuds</a> that almost always spill over the soundstage and into the headlines.

When fans come to love a show - and the relationships on that show - it&#39;s nice to think that the same chemistry exists between the characters in real life. This is not always the case,&nbsp;as fans of&nbsp;Sex and&nbsp;the City, Beverly Hills, 90210, The Good Wife, and even The Golden Girls&nbsp;know -&nbsp;or are soon to find out. Here&#39;s a look at some famous TV besties who were bitter enemies when the cameras stopped rolling.

There are several reasons why a TV show might kill off a character. Perhaps&nbsp;the actor&nbsp;was difficult to work with,&nbsp;or&nbsp;maybe the showrunners wanted to shock the audience. It&rsquo;s even possible that the character&rsquo;s end&nbsp;was necessary for&nbsp;the show&#39;s story arc. Regardless of the reasoning, actors are sometimes unhappy when their character is&nbsp;removed from a show.

Although the actors usually understand why, that doesn&rsquo;t mean they aren&rsquo;t disappointed&nbsp;when the director finally announces &ldquo;series wrap&rdquo; for their character.&nbsp;Find out why some of your favorite characters&nbsp;were offed, as well as&nbsp;the actors&#39; honest reactions to their untimely demises.

Guys like Rob Petrie, Andy Taylor and Howard Cunningham looked out for their kids, paid attention to their needs and gave them solid life and career advice.Through the '80s and '90s, pop culture got a bit a bit more realistic or cynical, depending on who you ask, and TV Dads became more of a hodge-podge of responsibility and immaturity, reflecting the real, complex and often difficult job of being a father. Though there remain the shining examples of great TV dads like Cliff Huxtable from "The Cosby Show" and Dan Conner from "Roseanne," you now had alternative views of fatherhood, like Homer Simpson and the iconic Al Bundy.But this list doesn't discriminate!

If only we could elect a fictional character as president. As business tycoons and professional politician types attempt to make their way to America's top political office, many Americans are left wondering, “Where are my people? Where are the candidates that I could actually get behind?” Here’s a list of fictional characters who have what it takes to serve as Commander in Chief of the United States. Note that all these characters are on current shows and would actually qualify for office. They are all American citizens, at least 35 years old, and live in current times. So although a guy like Jon Snow from Game of Thrones seems to have all the proper qualities of a great American leader, he doesn’t actually fit the parameters. So what makes a great president anyway? The potential contenders do not have to be political TV characters. However, they must display excellent leadership qualities, with the ability to not only drive a team to success, but to do it with the needs of American citizens in mind. Imagine Dana Scully (The X-Files), Alicia Florrick (The Good Wife), or Saul Berenson (Homeland) in office. They would be on any list of TV characters who could be president. Although they are flawed (aren’t we all?), they are also hyper-intelligent, honest, brave, hard-working, and have the ability to lead even in the most difficult times.Be sure to do your part and vote up which fictional politicians and current TV characters you think would make a great choice for president.

Game of Thrones Awards

This list of the best, most interesting characters from HBO&#39;s Game of Thrones&nbsp;series has been voted on by tens of thousands of GoT fans. Though the complicated study of power dynamics in the fantasy kingdom of Westeros may not have too many identifiable or even sympathetic lead characters, it has nonetheless produced a wide variety of compelling, entertaining and outsized personalities, from the brutal boy king Joffrey Baratheon to his diminutive but ingenious cousin Tyrion Lannister to their rivals, <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/all-members-of-house-stark/ranker-of-thrones?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">the Stark family</a> of Winterfell and the &quot;Mother of Dragons,&quot; Daenerys Targaryen. But which characters are the true fan favorites, providing the most memorable moments and unexpected plot twists? While it&#39;s inevitably that a certain Bolton is likely to get heavily downvoted based on the true evilness of his character, hopefully some of the more nuanced &quot;not purely evil&quot; characters will maintain high rankings based on the opinion of true fans (like yourself, dear reader!).&nbsp;

HBO&#39;s Game of Thrones&nbsp;show is based on the Song of Ice and Fire&nbsp;cycle of novels by fantasy author George R. R. Martin.&nbsp;Martin has said that the series was partially based on the real &quot;War of the Roses&quot; that engulfed England in civil war in the 15th Century. Those conflicts concerned a rivalry between the houses of Lancaster and York, whose names clearly provided inspiration for the rival families of Lannister and Stark in the GoT universe. While this list is focused on characters from the TV series, voters who have both seen the show and read the books will probably vote somewhat differently given the additional nuance they will bring to their opinion of this unique ranking. This list ranks every major Game of Thrones character from best to worst, and given how many fans have voted on it, it&#39;s the definitive ranking of GoT&nbsp;fan favorites

WARNING: Spoilers abound. If you&rsquo;re caught up on Season 9, you should be fine, though.

Walking Dead fans spend about 60% of their time discussing who will die before just about every episode. Watching the AMC show causes anxiety for this very reason alone. Who&rsquo;s actually going to make it to the end or very close to the end of The Walking Dead? Even though the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/how-does-twd-comic-end/stephanroget" target="_blank">TWD comic ended in July 2019</a>, the show and its source material have diverged enough that no one is truly safe.

Daryl Dixon doesn&rsquo;t even exist in the comic books but he&rsquo;s got fans so crazed, they border on the obsessive. Norman Reedus has vowed to strike the first match if they kill off Daryl so he might just make it through the apocalypse. A popular saying among Dead fans: &ldquo;If they kill Daryl, we riot.&rdquo; It helps that as a character, Daryl has the skills and the luck to make it through psychopathic overlords, cannibals, bloodthirsty gangs, and even the dreaded yuppies behind Alexandria&rsquo;s walls.

If you were placing bets during season one, there&rsquo;s no way you&rsquo;d expect the mousy, domestically-abused Carol to live through an episode, much less outlive Glenn and Abraham. Even Carl has grown from being an overly-protected little boy to a stone-cold calculating killer.&nbsp;Will The Walking Dead&rsquo;s producers kill off the boy who has lived through so much - even having to kill his own mother?

Remember, you&#39;re voting up the characters most likely to make it, not your favorite characters.&nbsp;Who will survive in this hard, cruel world all the way to the bitter end? Who would you choose as the <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/strongest-walking-dead-characters/jonathan-kantor" target="_blank">Walking Dead characters</a> who will survive longest?

Characters We'll Never Forget

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;
