I've never known whether or not these EW photo "lists" are supposed to be in order of awesomeness, but I'll take this one to be so, as Angel and Spike are in the "number one" spot.
But then, South Park's Satan deserves to be much higher on the list. ;-)
Also really good to read an accurate thumbnail description of Spike's character, for once.
Nice list! And we don't even have to bitch about whether Angel or Spike should have come first.
But did everyone else know that the guy who played Nick Knight was Welsh?
I thought he sounded a little odd because he was Canadian. Huh.
What no mention of Spike ? ... Hang on ... What no mention of Angel ? ... Shit. Nevermind.
Some of those seemed a bit reachy or at least not that big a part of popular culture (as immortals anyway). Pinhead, for instance seemed a stretch. And the guy from 'New Amsterdam' is "beloved" ? Moreso than e.g. Captain Jack ? Got my doubts.
And yep, Geraint Wyn Davies is a very Welsh name. I actually went to school with a guy called Carwyn Dafydd Trefor Jones which has to be about as Welsh as you can get without popping out the other side ;).
(GWD didn't sound even vaguely Welsh - to me - by the time he turned up in 'Slings and Arrows' though, he just had a sort of placeless "Shakespearean delivery", bit Canadian but maybe more English than anything else. Even if according to IMDB he's actually a US citizen now)
Nice list, BUT... Morpheus should be way higher than that. And I'm not sure the Hugh Jackman character from The Fountain actually IS imortal. I interpretted that film as being more metaphorical and/or imaginary rather than literal.
Hmm, no, I'm pretty sure it was this one (though I remember the chemistry one as well). Because I also remember being horrified at the lack of Captain Jack mentionage. But maybe it was never linked here.
I don't think I will ever grow old of these lists EW seems to give us almost daily. Excellent time-wasters.
But then, South Park's Satan deserves to be much higher on the list. ;-)

Not exactly what I had in mind sueworld, but it is a ship we can talk about without dire consequences ensuing. ;-)
