A bit of an oldie from me, I'm going for Norm from Cheers.

Not only a great character but a role model for life!

He was great, but I was also partial to Cliff.

Gob from Arrested Development.

Ah, he'd be in my top 3, definitely.

Tough one, but I think I'll have to go for George Costanza, such a neurotic, awkward but hilarious character.

Honourable mentions go to Hank Kingsley, Gob, Michael Scott and Dwight Schrute.

Would have been on my list but they've pushed him a little too far into the surreal in Season 4 (and Michael's not far behind :(
