Lester Nygaard
In the FX television adaptation of Fargo, Lester Nygaard (Martin Freeman) is a polite and meek insurance salesman from Bemidji, Minnesota. After he’s pushed over the edge by his old high school bully and then his abusive wife, boy does he embraces his darker side.
John Constantine
Based on Alan Moore’s Hellblazer comics, John Constantine (Matt Ryan) can see the supernatural in our everyday world.

On Saturday Night Live, Shia LaBeouf plays a fanciful magician. His most famous act is taking your age and subtracting 2. Add 2 again, and you get your real age. Magic!
Carl Spackler from Caddyshack
In Caddyshack, when the upscale Bushwood Country Club is overrun with a gopher infestation, it’s the unhinged Carl Spackler (Bill Murray) who’s called in. And when flooding them out of their holes doesn’t work, he embarks on a scorched earth campaign.

Dr. Eugene Porter
In The Walking Dead, Dr. Eugene Porter (Josh McDermitt) claims to be a scientist who has the cure for the zombie plague. We’ll see if he’s as smart as he says he is, but we know for sure he can’t be trusted with a firearm.
Riley Abel from the Last of Us
In The Last of Us, Riley Abel is a 15-year-old survivor and best friends with Ellie. She dislikes the military and sides with the radical Fireflies, but that won’t come between her and Ellie.
