I have many TV characters that I like but if someone asks me to name only two, I would say Michael Schofield(Wentworth Miller) from “Prison break” and  Dana Katherine Scully (Gillian Anderson) from “X-files”. If I had been asked this same question 10 years ago, I would have said superman and Phantom. Well everything changes with time. But some things still remain. I still love the SuperHeroes fighting against evils. I still like to watch superhero movies even after knowing that they don’t exists.

I still like fantasy movies like LOTR and Star Dust, both of which are my 2 favorite movies in this category. Well, lets see why I like Schofield (not just because he is an engineer like me) and Scully (not just because she is a beautiful woman).

The thing which I like about Michael Schofield in “Prison break” is the way he plans things. I like the way he sees the world. Most of the time, his decision comes from the then changing environment.  He doesn’t have a great physique and yet he outwits all. It always reminds me that a good brain has a lot of better things to do than that of a good physique. (It might be the reason why I am contented with my 6 pack abs rather than 8 pack abs ). The serial was really good, though it became boring after season 2.

About Dana Scully, I like everything, right from her voice to her character and style. She still looks stunningly beautiful even after 17 years of her 1^st episode in X-files. I like her realistic and practical decision. Every choice she makes or every point she puts forward has a scientific and sound logical reasoning. Though it would be hard to find such a character in this real world, she did manage to stick us till the end of the whole series.
