Nods to the thread in the film forum.
What are some of the most memorable minor characters in a television series? Obviously, Seinfeld will dominate with the likes of Soup Nazi, Ukraine Guy, Newman, and so on. So the real question is, what other TV-series has great minor characters that could compete with Seinfeld's? |

LOST did an excellent job with minor characters. So many to pick from.
