Most sitcom characters are too snarky all the time.
If your friends with an action hero your likely to die.
If you freinds with a drama character your life is likely to be filled with drama.
I think I’d pick Bill Crosby. Yeah sure he’s pretty self righteous, but at least he’s funny most of the time.
How about The Most Interesting Man in the World … that is, if commercials count.
I like Ducky, Gibbs and Ziva on NCIS. Luckily I know how to use hand woodworking tools =) and have an interest in forensics and Britihs history. Dinner would be a blast with all of them.
Seconded.
I was going to say Vincent Chase from Entourage but I’ll third The Most Interesting Man in the World - if only so I can thank him for punching me in the face!
Without question or hesitation, Titus Pullo from Rome.
First runner-up: Bobby “Bacala” Baccalieri (I get to play with choo-choo trains and consume mountains of ziti and peppers-and-eggs sangwiches!)
There is only one answer to this question - Jim Rockford.
Connor Temple, because you’ve got to love a smart funny guy with access to dinosaurs. But it’d be one of those friends I’d also sleep with deals.
Jim Rockford.
Is it me, or has the Most Interesting Man in the World started to get a bit Chuck Norris-y? I mean, he used to be just straight up cool, but now, the commercials have started adding things like, “If he punches you in the face, you’ll have to resist the urge to thank him” and corny stuff like that. I liked him back when he was a cool cat, not a mythical superhero.
My choice will be Anthony Bourdain. Is he a character? He gets to travel, eat great food, he is smart, funny, direct, just great fun.
Is that cheating? If it has to be a fictional character, then I will go with Huey Freeman from the Boondocks.
Bret from “Flight of the Conchords.” And by “be friends with” I mean “have sex with.”
Carol Brown? Is that you?
No, Carol Brown took the bus out of town. Mel is the creepy girl who wants to do them, so I’d be her. I’m fine with just Bret, though.
Rose Nylund from The Golden Girls, although that might fit more into “which TV character would you most like as your Nana”.
Hmm… probably Fran Fine.
Me too. Maybe we can all hang out at that little taco stand and have lunch together.
Let’s see:
Bender, from Futurama. Even though he wants to kill all humans, he wouldn’t be talking about me.
Sam Malone. He does own a bar!
Jim Halpert. Seems like a nice, all-around guy, but now that he’s married with child, he might not be available.
Davis McAlary from Treme. Even though he’s a bit of an ass, he knows where the party’s at!
And of course, The Most Interesting Man in the World and Jim Rockford (but I get to drive the Firebird).
“But what if he’s dead?”
“What if he’s did what?”
Phoebe Buffet.
David Puddy
Jim Rockford is a close second, but if you were friends with Rockfish, you’d also have to run into Gandy and Angel.
Seriously? “Mad, bad, and dangerous to know” doesn’t begin to do Pullo justice. It would be interesting to have a drink with the man - but for the love of God, walk away briskly after that.
