More interesting to me is that every single show you've mentioned is American.

@horribleblob Yep. I'm writing an article for a college project and they're all supposed to be hit american shows, it was intentional

[horribleblob 213]

Thank you. That, too, is interesting.

JR Ewing - Dallas.

 

Yep, I'd go with that. Corrie has had its fair share of nasty villains, in fact Weatherfield appears to be mecca for them.

 

Richard Hillman, Tracy Barlow, Charlie Stubbs.

 

Nina Myers of 24.

 

There must be loads in Eastenders and Hollyoaks, neither of which I watch. Trevor Jordache from Brookie!

 

ETA: just seen Nina Myers of 14 in the OP's list, sorry I missed it upon first reading.

My favourite villain is a Vic Mackey from the The shield film .This man may be a cop, and sometimes his intentions are honorable, but he will do anything to get ahead, financially or otherwise. He has no problem to kill or harm anyone who comes his way.The way he is committing the crime that no one catch him just a great acting in this movie .

I used to love The Shield and Vic Mackey is a great choice, even though he is a hero half the time!

Darn I was going to say "The Master" from Dr Who.
