Nitpick: Bruce Banner is the comic book and Ang Lee movie Hulk. David Banner is the cheesy 70s TV Hulk.
Oh, wow, I remember that show!
Meanwhile, I just remembered that one of the incarnations of Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy was a BBC miniseries. So I’m going to add Ford Prefect (unfortunately not the Mos Def version, but you can’t have everything) to my team.
Hannibal Smith of The A-Team, because I need a leader,
Face from The A-Team, because I need someone smooth,
Murdock from . . . again of The A-Team, because I need someone crazy
"Animal Mother" from Full Metal Jacket because I need lots of firepower and someone not afraid to use it,
Tony Soprano because I’ll need someone ruthless (and who has connections),
and finally, Q of James Bond fame because I’ll need gadgets that actually work (the Professor from Gilligan’s Island and that kid from the Goonies were in the running, but then I realized their gadgets were just crappy, cockamamie schemes).
Yeah, I know two are from movies, but if those movies have been shown on the TV, then in my mind they become “TV Shows”. 
Tripler
And as alternates, I’d take Robert DeNero and Val Kilmer from Heat, because I may need an assault/escape team.
It’s hard, but I’m trying to stay within the TV-only guidelines.
Sideshow Bob (The Simpsons) - He can take care of the planning. Also, a pie in the face gag would not go amiss.
Wash (Firefly) - In case something needs to be piloted.
Quentin McLeod (Highlander) - Because I never watched the live-action series and Connor is only in the movies. Still, Quentin has the immortality, plus the added bonus of not having to kill friendly immortals to get their powers.
Admiral Adama (Battlestar Galactica, 2004) - Tactics and ass-kicking in roughly equal quantities.
Darien Fawkes (Invisible Man) - Stealth and a sense of humor.
Dr. House (House) - Medic, and his cruel insults can cripple the enemy’s spirit.
The OP said no more than one person from each show.
I think not. Vader appeared briefly in the gawdawful, Lucas-shunned “Star Wars Holiday Special,” didn’t he?
Bah, I can’t believe it…I forget to add the badest of badasses in all of television history.
I speak, of course, of…
I’ll just note that the ultimate duo would be Jack Bauer and Batman.
Batman becomes the most powerful force in the world, the more prepared he is.
Jack Bauer becomes the most powerful force in the world, the more he is working off the seat of his pants.
Together, they would be unstoppable!
I guess I’ll pick ME - the Invisible Man. (Post #19)
Oh yeah, I knew that. I was just checking you. . . :rolleyes: :smack:
My revised list-
Hannibal Smith of The A-Team, because I need a leader,
Kojak, because I need someone smooth,
Sgt Oddball from Kelley’s Heroes, because I need someone crazy
"Animal Mother" from Full Metal Jacket because I need lots of firepower and someone not afraid to use it,
Tony Soprano because I’ll need someone ruthless (and who has connections),
and finally, Q of James Bond fame because I’ll need gadgets that actually work (the Professor from Gilligan’s Island and that kid from the Goonies were in the running, but then I realized their gadgets were just crappy, cockamamie schemes).
Tripler
and in my hip pocket, I have Will Ferrel as my ‘secret weapon’.
Well, OK, I guess that counts, but… You’re a braver man than I, is all I can say.
And we’ve all been neglecting the ultimate TV show badass:
I want Bugs Bunny on my team.
Goddamn it, here I am reading the first page of the thread, thinking “Bugs”, and frigging Chronos beats me to it…
In any case:
Bugs Bunny (wily)
Jack Bauer (insane)
Capt. Benjamin Sisko (Prophet! plus, keeps others in line and adds needed dialogue and plot points)
Duncan Macleod (immortal! plus, always has sword in katana-space)
Spike (hard call, but between Angel, Buffy, Giles and Wesley, I have to pick the guy who comes back from the dead and didn’t go insane, just got all uppity. Plus, vampire and needed sarcastic comments)
B.A. Barracus (I pity da fool!)
Going from movies, I say
Ripley
Mad Max
Snake Plisskin
John McClane
Mal Reynolds
Ho Kam-An (Stephen Chow’s character from Love on Delivery. Comic relief bad ass)
Ocelot from the Metal Gear Solid series. He manages to be secretly behind the scenes of everything, playing all the characters like fools and making them fight each other while he carries out the Patriots’ plans. When Snake and Eva escape from the Shagohod facility in Snake Eater, Ocelot jumps on a Ural motorcycle and follows them, averting death when a steel girder nearly falls on him. Later, he pilots a WiG (Wing in Ground vehicle) and actually manages to jump out of it and into the one flown by Eva in mid-air. And this is while he is still young and inexperienced. He’s an ace with his revolvers, and can reload faster than anyone else. His only downside is that his arm literally has a mind of its own, and sometimes takes control of him.
Ronnie from The Shield. He’s the most mysterious character on the show, and somehow manages to escape all of the shit that falls on Shane and Vic despite being totally complicit in their corruption (other than Terry’s murder.) He is an electronics and surveillance expert and can master any technological challenge thrown at him. Also, he has a rugged looking beard, which he grew to cover up a giant burn mark after his face got held down on a hot stove burner.
Starsky from Starsky and Hutch. One of the most overlooked badasses in pop culture history. Hutch was the smooth and charming one on the show, but Starsky was the hard-ass, the guy who would charge in and take down the perps. Starsky racked up an impressive body count over the course of the show - according to this site, Starsky killed 9 bad guys to Hutch’s 7, and seriously injured 12 to Hutch’s 6. He’s also very capable in hand to hand combat and is frequently seen throwing, disarming and otherwise beating up enemies. Obviously, he is also a very skilled driver and successfully pursued a multitude of fleeing suspects through very dangerous car chases, and is an ace at cornering, making quick U-turns, etc. He’s also a skilled motorcycle rider, as is evident in the episode Savage Sunday where he pursues the bad guys on a Kawasaki Scrambler, doing some impressive stunts and getting up and running after putting the bike down on purpose.
Sailor from Wild At Heart. He wears a snakeskin jacket, which symbolizes his love of personal freedom - and was willing to fight 6 or 7 gangsters rather than give it up. He beat the shit out of a guy who messed with his woman at a heavy metal show - then bought the guy a drink, and then took the microphone from the singer and sung “Love Me Tender” while the band accompanied him. (One of my favorite movie scenes of all time.)
