Re: Greatest TV Bad Guy?
I just want to say Benjamin Linus is an absolutely great bad guy...
Not badass... Bad guy...
He just is...
Don't even bother arguing with that...

Mudders! (Firefly)
Zhaan (Farscape)
Ghoa'uld (SG1)

ZPM (Atlantis)

TARDIS (Doctor Who)
Zneet (My Hero)Can't think of any for:
Lost?
Heroes?
Supernatural?I dunno, could be an intersting poll.
On Farscape they said frell. Zhaan was the blue lady/flower.
And remember Bester from good old B5? Oh man I hated that smug psi-cop.
Keep the polls coming

Maybe we should limit this poll to just the greatest sci-fi swear substitute. Frell, Frak, Smeg, Goram...
Was there ever a Klingon swear?

Re: Greatest TV Bad Guy?
except for me to add... that the blue wormhole-y thing at the start of the show is the TARDIS moving backwards through the timestream, the red wormehole-y is it moving forwards... [had to doublecheck that on a commentary...]
edit: and not to imply that you are Martha fucking Jones either mxy... your ass is way finer...

Re: Greatest TV Bad Guy?
I think that if time was linear, it would be impossible to move backwards in time, without creating paradoxes. The timey wimey wibbely wobbely stuff is a way to be able to travel backwards, but still keeping the history intact. Everything that happens, was always supposed to happen. The time line was never straight, but very much bent, and wobbeled...
Oh, and I got this great quote, when I watched the International:
"There is a difference between truth and fiction. Fiction has to make sense...

you make a fine argument here, but if this is the case though, it would negate the necessity of having entities whose purpose is to prevent the timeline being changed, ergo, it CAN be changed...
edit: "still keeping history intact"... i kinda always looked at the Doctor's as being a course correction role in the grand scheme of things, so i do agree with you there... by the same token we have seen the Doctor's actions change things onto a course that was never supposed to happen, eg Satellite 5...
very nice quote, btw...

You're right... unless what happened on Satellite 5 was always supposed to happen. If it had not, the Doctor couldn't have corrected it.
You might be able to change the time line, and if you are, you were always supposed to... I know, this is a cheaters argument.. it's sort of using religious logic, so I'm not too proud of it
By that I mean that this argument can not be disproved, unless a paradox actually happens... but if a paradox would happen, there would be no one here to prove it 
I know, I liked the quote too.. thought it would fit nicely in these forums

Been re-watching some old TV stuff and have come up with a couple of contenders.
Jack of All Trades from the series Profiler and the most beautiful "bad guy" of ALL time Miss Parker from The Pretender.
