Because fun memes are worth bringing back from the dead, all zombie-like =D Last time we did this was what... back in April?
Anyway! List the characters you've considered applying, but never have. C'mon, you know you've got loads of them! Bold for the characters that you're reeeally tempted to app, italics for the characters you wish somebody else would app, andstrikeouts for the characters who nobody should ever app in a million years.
1. Anybody from Nextwave! Especially Aaron Stack and/or Dirk Anger. Just think of the drop-bears and atomic puppies! "YAP YAP BANG!"
2. Dr. Molly Clock, from Scrubs.
3. Aldous, from What it's Like Being Alone
4. The Iron Giant, from... er, the Iron Giant
5. Magrat Garlick, from Discworld
6. The Other Mother, from Coraline. She would be fantastically creepy.
8. More Nightmare Before Christmas characters, especially Oogie or Lock, Shock and Barrel
9. Roald Dahl love! Like Matildawho's totally a Ravenclaw, or Willy Wonka... though he'd be really tough to pull off.
10. Pepito! from Squee*selfish yearning*
11. Randle P. McMurphy, from One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest
12. More Discworld characters! Especially Carrot, or Moist Von Lipwing, or... or... oh man, the list never ends.
13. Guybrush Threepwood, from the Monkey Island games
Probably gonna add to this later.

Date: 2006-10-29 05:06 am (UTC)Adrian Monk. Oh God. So so so hard to do justice to, but what a character!
Columbo. Ditto.
Dexter Morgan. This is a forensics expert and sometime serial killer who only kills bad people. Created by Jeff Lindsay in the books 'Darkly Dreaming Dexter' and 'Dearly Devoted Dexter,' he's now got his own series (http://www.sho.com/site/dexter/home.do) on Showtime. Being first-person narrative (voiceovers on the TV show), it's a great character part.
Kermit the Frog. Do I really need to explain this one?
'Dude' Lebowski. C'mon. We need The Dude!
Morticia Addams. Hot, cool and creepy.
Anyone from the Babylon 5 universe. Delenn would be cool; so would the woefully underused Marcus Cole.
Please please please nobody app as BOB from Twin Peaks. Laura and Cooper couldn't take that.I'll probably think of more later.
no subject
Date: 2006-10-29 05:46 am (UTC)PLEASE, NO BOB. Coop is much more fun when he's hunting bogeymen that really aren't bogeymen.(no subject)

Ben Sulliven from Scrubs. *wishes for so verra much*
Carla Espinosa from Scrubs. Yes, I want the whole cast. Sue me.
Rose Walker from Sandman.
The Dursleys. Any of them. ... All right, actually, they might be kind of fun to mess with.Mr. Universe from Serenity (the movie).
Christopher Snow from Fear Nothing (http://www.amazon.com/Fear-Nothing-Dean-Koontz/dp/0553579754) and Seize the Night (http://www.amazon.com/Seize-Night-Dean-Koontz/dp/0553580191/ref=pd_bxgy_b_text_b/102-9049887-7947366) by Dean Koontz. So hard to pull off, but such a great character.
And, going along with that, Bobby Halloway, from the same books. (And, Orson, the dog, but that goes without saying...)
Miss Piggy. Yeah.
Kingsley Shacklebolt. Or, as I like to call him, Shack.
Oh, yeah, so going to think of more later. Or, you know, right after I hit 'post'...

4. More Farscape characters! I maintain a Rygel here would be hillarious.
5. Anyone from Jesus Christ: Vampire Hunter, particularly El Santos.
6. People from Team America.
7. Titus Pullo from Rome.
8. Maeniel and Matrona from Alice Borchardt's books. I bet they'd get along great with Robin.

2. Henry Winter from The Secret History. Admittedly, anyone who apped him would have to be willing to put up with me, as I play Camilla ... I'd be soooo thrilled to have a Henry in HH. In fact, I almost apped him instead of Camilla, but I needed a female character, and Henry's a bit too similar to Stephen. (Stephen is wayyy more moral, mind you.)
3. Barrett Bonden from the Aubrey-Maturin series/ the film "Master and Commander". Bonus points if you include hobbit meta (Bonden's portrayed by Billy Boyd in the film).
4. Preserved Killick, also from the Aubrey-Maturin series. Why do we need this man? Exhibit A: The Very Secret Diary of Preserved Killick (http://community.livejournal.com/hms_surprise/130510.html) (not written by me).
5. Mycroft Holmes, from the Sherlock Holmes canon. Don't ask me why. He's just cool.
6. Fox Mulder from the X-Files, to hang out with Cooper, and possibly indulge in a bit of silly meta (http://duchovny.net/roles/twin.htm).
7. Radiskull and Devil Doll! From .. well, Radiskull and Devil Doll.
And I suppose the list wouldn't be complete without Montaro, minor character from Yuugioh. You know it. He's so minor I had to give him a name.
Now that I've posted this, I'll probably think of more later.

Date: 2006-10-30 04:23 am (UTC)1.
Diana Tregarde, from Mercedes Lackey's urban fantasy novels. She's an interesting character on some levels but FAR FAR too Sueish to be worthwhile.2. Ianto, Toshiko or Owen from Torchwood. One Whoverse character is enough for me, but I hope someone picks them up once there's a bit more canon to go off of.
3. Jamie Lannister. Is love. But my head for Song of Ice and Fire canon is shot of late.
4. Dr. Cuddy from House. But all the House folk are gone. :(
5. Turk and Carla from Scrubs. COME ON PEOPLEZ.
6. Mickey Smith from Doctor Who. Not for messing with Rose, but because Mickey is MADE OF WIN, yes.
7. Dr. Maya Witherspoon from The Serpent's Shadow. The book is barely not-awful, but I rather like her character. Still, she's not interesting enough to keep me playing.
I said it on my last list, but I'll say it again...
8. Daisy from Spaced. Her rambling and terminal case of foot-in-mouth and her love for her dog Colin and her perkiness and her relationship with Tim and her affection/fear for her landlady and her case of terminally failing to be hip...
I do so love Daisy. She'd treat Hogwarts like her trip to India, with a videocamera and everything.
