Commander William Riker
The First Officer of the USS Enterprise under Captain Jean-Luc Picard, Commander William Riker (Jonathan Frakes) performs his duties with confidence, courage and a heap of charm. Although he has the experience and skill to captain his own ship, he chooses to stay with the Enterprise as First Officer. The rakish Riker proceeds to tour the galaxy, saving lives and sweeping women off their feet – with the occasional trombone solo. As a Starfleet officer, he wears the Command Red uniform.
Jen Barber
After wheedling her way into an IT supervisor position with zero experience, Jen Barber (Katherine Parkinson) finds herself in charge of two antisocial, socially awkward, adorably inept geeks, Maurice Moss and Roy Trenneman, on the British sitcom The IT Crowd. Jen handles her new underlings as best she can, even when that means dealing with a goth vampire, a deviant of a boss and various terrible love interests. A trendy, fashionable woman, Jen wears traditional office wear with modern, edgy twists.
Inspector Lestrade (BBC)
Greg Lestrade (Rupert Graves) is an Inspector with Scotland Yard who calls upon Sherlock Holmes when cases take a perplexing turn. He has worked with Sherlock long enough to not be bothered by the brusque, rather rude manner Sherlock has, and the two are as close to friends as Sherlock allows. Lestrade is cool, confident and always open to Sherlock’s suggestions. He wears an unbuttoned black suit with no tie and a large overcoat.
Commander William Adama
William Adama (Edward James Olmos) is Commander of the interstellar battleship Galactica and Admiral of the fleet on the hit sci-fi show Battlestar Galactica.

Captain Jean-Luc Picard
Captain of the Sovereign-class starship the USS Enterprise, Captain Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart) helms it with a steady, wise hand and a cup of hot Earl Grey tea in the other.

Starfleet reveres him as a distinguished leader and negotiator; his crew love him as they would a father, despite a slightly brusque exterior. He wears the Starfleet Command Red uniform.
Caprica Six
The first model of Cylon revealed to look human in the TV series Battlestar Galactica, the Six line (Tricia Helfer) relies on seduction, manipulation and brute force to achieve its goals.

She dresses for the role of temptress, in a revealing red dress and tousled blonde locks.
Colonel Jack O’Neil
A tough, no-nonsense army colonel called in to deal with a potential alien incursion in the 1994 movie Stargate, Jack O’Neil (Kurt Russell) keeps his rowdy bunch alive and on task.
