Assholes we love to love
Melvin Udhall from "As Good as it Gets" is one of my personal favorites. The Bad Guy in "Raiders of the Lost Ark" (le Frenchman) is another.

Who can you simply not resist?

8. OMG. Y'see, he looks like the sort of asshole who
is extremely funny, and doesn't have a clue as to why. Whatever else he may look like, you chose the right picture. I wish my TV worked!

62. sugar, do you watch Boston Legal?
one of the very few tv series I keep track of. but I've always been drawn to lawyerly shows - like the old L.A. Law series.

William Shatner plays a real creepy sometimes likeable character. and love to hear Allan Shore's (james spader) closing statements. some of them are truly brilliant.

36. I looked it up. Here is what Wikipedia says about the actor (Jeffrey Jones)
Child porn controversy

In 2003, Jones was arrested for possession of child pornography and employing a 14-year-old boy to pose for pornographic photographs.<2> Jones pled no contest to the felony charges and was ordered to undergo counseling and register as a sex offender.<3> In July 2004, he was arrested by Florida police after failing to notify them of his change of residence as required under Megan’s Law.<4> He has since been sued in civil court by the minor, who is now an adult.<5[br />

56. J. R. Ewing
Loved that evil smile/laugh when he would pull a good one on somebody. The first 5 years of Dallas were really good. Excellent character development and interesting story lines. After that it went downhill pretty fast. Hard to believe it limped on for another 8 years.
