Well, here’s an interesting year end top 10 list…apparently SFX Magazine polled readers to get the top 10 sci-fi characters of all time – and here’s how it came out.
1. Doctor Who (“Doctor Who” )
2. Spike (“Buffy the Vampire Slayer”)
3. Buffy Summers(“Buffy the Vampire Slayer”)
4. John Crichton (“Farscape”)
5. Aeryn Sun (“Farscape”)
6. Han Solo (the “Star Wars” saga)
7. Willow Rosenberg (“Buffy the Vampire Slayer”)
8. Darth Vader (the “Star Wars” saga)
9. Angel (“Buffy the Vampire Slayer”)
10. Gandalf (“Lord of the Rings” )
Now, I’ve never seen (or really had any interest in watching) “Farscape”, so I’ll just have to take those with a grain of salt. But look at all the Buffy characters! And the Doctor is at the top of the list. (And, for the record, I’d like to point out that the only LOTR character on the list shows up at the very very bottom. So maybe I’m not the only one who doesn’t have any interest in those movies…)
