Would have chosen him myself. Not because he is handsome or pretty or portrayed by a talented man - it's the depth of his character, as you've spoken about.
Funny, you know, Viva. When you mentioned Dexter to me, I was bleh about it. I wonder if you remember. I think it took a comment from you in the tone of 'why are you not watching this show' to kick me up the bum and get us viewing. You are so right. He is more than a serial killer and this is so much more than a police show.
The layers of his personality are unparalleled on TV at the mo, imho. Probably due to his violent bent, but also the way MCH provides little insights into aspects of his personality.
For interest sake, who else would you have chosen? I wonder if you'd have selected Michael (not C) Scofield. Or Jack (not C) Shepherd?
OT, but yeah, I get the whole 'funny thing' about WM. We both have it. Bring on the Tit any day, bb.
Also forgot to mention that (possibly) your other real favourite were Ben Linus of the Ham, and perhaps the K-man? Did they enter the running. Kman might have for me, just FYI that you probably didn't want *g*
I'm actually looking forward to the fave female character you've never talked about on LJ before! What's that all about? You have some mystery still, ffs?
I considered and rejected a lot of favorite males. I had some guidelines for myself to prevent going insane; no one from LOST (I am not doing any LOST on this meme, JSYK.), had to be a main character, so no K-Man :((((. In fact it came down to Dex or Bobby Goren, from Law & Order Criminal Intent, and I chose Dex because he is more my current interest. Also I think I'll be using Goren later, so I'll save my thoughts for that entry.
Many of the male characters I enjoy have a certain quality about them that are interesting, but not as a fully rounded person. A few years ago Michael Scofield would have been a shoo-in, yeah, but, well...there ya go.
I'm working on the mystery female right now, so won't spoil you. I've hit a bit of a snag which is why I'm here. Thank goodness for that LJ auto save feature, that's all I got to say ;)

He really is something, isn't he?
