Woody and Norm of course.


Less Nessman (incompetent news reporter), Dr. Johnny Fever (the dj) and Jennifer Marlowe (Loni Anderson as the receptionist) on WKRP In Cinci.



(edit) Cooter on Dukes Of Hazzard. Probably the most talented and quickest mechanic ever.

But in all honesty...it's a toss-up between:

Stringer Bell and Tyrion Lannister. Film AND tv, the best two roles I've seen.

Although if we were scoring, same actor [Michael Kenneth Williams] played these two: Omar Little & Chalky White
