Top Ten Most Badass TV Series Characters

This dude should be number one. He is bad to the a**! Anyone who thinks he isn't is crazy and out of their mind.
The southern badass. If he dies then AMC would have to end walking dead.Because he's the reason walking dead is still on fire
He is the best T.V. character
No. 5

Just rewatching Breaking Bad; and Walter White's transformation is simply unmatched. In roughly 30 episodes Walter arcs from being mild-mannered high school chemistry teacher to the most cunning and ruthless character in modern T.V. history. Sure, there have been characters more evil and violent, but WW goes to the top by being brilliantly written by V. Gilligan and acted by Bryan Cranston. Cranston is not unlike Charles Bronson in the craggy looks department - but unlike Bronson, Cranston can not only act, but is buoyed by being on what was one of the most complete series in T.V. history.
Walter White is one of the deepest characters in modern television. Take a weak, timid and angsty teacher who seemed scared of his own shadow, watch him get diagnosed with a terminal cancer and see the transformation into Heisenberg. A ruthless, on-the-edge intelligent and dangerous druglord who will stop at nothing to get stuff his way. Definitively worthy of the number one spot.
It's interesting because he's not exactly an action hero. He can act all tough and intimidating, but his main power is his intelligence. Granted, he's also incredibly arrogant and a delusional maniac, but he has the intelligence to back it up. Incredibly cunning, incredibly crafty. One to tread lightly around.
He's one of the most complex characters that transformed from an average joe into an infamous badass. It's been a thrill watching the journey and I wouldn't mind going through it again. A character you'll love to hate or hate yourself for loving. One hell of a character!


Just watch the end of ep. 12 on Netflix and you’ll understand
My motivator

Don't let his appearance fool you. "A very small man can cast a very large shadow".

Between him and Jax Teller but I think Dexter gets the edge in a one vs one
Dexter is my idol

Any one whos seen the show knows bohannons the ultimate bad ass

He motivates his soldiers, kills people, and lives in the most badass ways imaginable.
The hound is a great fighter, but the mountain is better
You're a talker, talkers make me thirsty
The most badass hardcore character!



The list is not worth the read if Jack Bauer isn't obviously 1st. Frank Castle is the only one in his bracket.
Damn it Coley we are running out of time
Jack Bauer number one in my book


He bit a guys throat out, he is just badass in what he says
He is indeed the most badass character
Man Rick is better than Daryl.
The most badass character in TWD.


By far one of the greatest acting performance on a show, the character is so unusual compare to what you see in other TV show. The closest character I could compare him is the Joker with heath ledger.
In my opinion should be the number 1. I've watched all this series and non of them can compare to Ragnar.
His character development was stellar and there wasnt a more badass character in the series, he should at the very least be above Jac from soa.
I don't get how someone like Ragnar can be so behind it just makes no sense at all

She is like the epitome of a strong woman. Now in our generation we rarely have examples of strong women in movies or popular culture in general (maybe Katniss is) but Buffy was some sort of a role model for us '90s kids.

Imagine saying that Walt is more badass than Mike...
I'm not saying that Walt isn't badass at all; he's certainly tough, but when compared to Mike, he's virtually nothing.
Walt, a literal coward and manipulative liar who killed anyone who stood in his way (Mike is a prime example) is #2 on this list. While Mike, who had a purpose for killing his victims, outsmarted Walt a majority of the time, and is the definition of no-nonsense.
He's a no-nonsense tough guy who gets things done and cares deeply for his granddaughter.
His portrayer was barely acting. He seems like quite a badass in real life too!
How is john Reese so low on the list
It's hard to choose the one tough guy or girl from Lost but if I'd have to choose, it must be sawyer.
James 'Sawyer' Ford is an absolute badass and one of the best characters on T.V..
The greatest male character ever!
