In my arbitrarily chosen day 4 for the meme, it's: favorite male character

I have trouble choosing favorites (one of the reasons I didn't try for all 30 days of this meme), but while thinking about this question, one particular character did come to mind. This character fills me with childhood nostalgia, and brings a smile to my face whenever I think of him.



My choice for favorite male character: Artemus Gordon from Wild, Wild West (wonderfully played by Ross Martin).

He was amazing. He was clever, and funny, and he had great disguises. He was a scientist and an inventor, and he could make gadgets that went whizz and bang using 19th century materials. He could have completely pwned Macgyver.

I wasn't able to find a Youtube video with the clips I wanted, but I did find a nice tribute video to the character that highlights his numerous disguises: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9f8qFUtd1g0&feature=PlayList&p=048C0BD757BD4823&playnext_from=PL&playnext=1&index=18

And while I'm talking Wild, Wild West, I just have to put in a word for one of the best television villains ever: Dr. Miguelito Loveless as portrayed by Michael Dunn. What a remarkable actor, and what a great character. If you've never seen him, or just want to be reminded of his greatness, here's a video with some Loveless clips: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ksy1GET6nqE&feature=related
