There are some characters in between from NCIS, CSI, and Killing Eve that I don't know, so...
SOme others in the top-20: Davos Seaworth, Lucius Fox, Daniel Jackson (stargate), Bruce Banner, Leonard Hofstaedter, and Data.

I approve :D

Anybody considering doing this, I strongly recommend you do the full-length test just because I found it really interesting.

My number one pick is fascinating to me because it is only very recently that I would have been willing to accept it.

My number one pick is Howard Wolowitz from The Big Bang Theory.

Like many others, I have for most of my life taken a pretty dim view of Big Bang as a show that was about people like me, written by people who aren't - an insulting, aggravating, rote rollout of a whole bunch of tropes.

I have given the show a bit of a chance since then and while it kind of still is all of the above things, part of why I hate it so much is because of how accurately it depicts what toxic masculinity among geeks looks like. I'm just not sure it's aware that it's doing that.

Howard previously was one of my prime reasons for not watching it because of how gross I thought he was, but watching it more recently, I don't mind him anywhere near as much as say, Leonard (also in my top 100) who thinks he is a nice guy while behaving at certain points like extremely standard awful men, the kind which you so commonly find in sitcoms.

Wolowitz also, I know, eventually matures, changes, commits to a relationship and becomes a parent; the writing of the show I think got a lot worse around the same time, but he at least learns some things.

As I scroll down through the list, however, I find a whole bunch of them that I either have previously outright stated I identify with (Boyle from Brooklyn 99, Chandler from Friends, George from Seinfeld, Forman from That 70s Show, Elliott from Scrubs), several that I see in this list and totally understand now that it's mentioned (Marla from Fight Club, Crazy Eyes from Orange is the New Black, Britta from Community), several that baffle me (Timon from Lion King) and some that feel like personal shots (Bella from Twilight, Alan from Two and a Half Men).

--- Quote from: Cornelius on 18 Aug 2020, 00:10 ---My top 3: Rupert Giles (84%), Filius Flitwick (83%), and Brandon Stark (81%).

Number one in Firefly characters is Simon Tam (78%).

Do they have some table or graph about the results for the characters, or how similar they are? I couldn't find it, exactly, and I think it'd be interesting.

That's a really good question. I'm not entirely sure.

A big chunk of my top matches were anti-heroes, protagonist antagonists, and villains. So, probably?

EDIT: finishing the thought. 4 hours of sleep and a 12 hour shift don't mix well.

pwhodges:
This turned out essentially meaningless for me.  When it asked me to rate characters from the stories used, there was only one of the stories that I know at all (Harry Potter)!  So I skipped that bit.  And since I have no knowledge of any of the characters listed for me, it tells me nothing.  However, the scatter graph for my top hit also indicates a match which to my mind is hardly close at all, even though they labelled it 75%:

Gyrre:
So I tried to get my results from the first time I took this and couldn't, so I took it again. You'll get some very different word pairs to rank yourself with. The optional additional portion will also give a different list of franchises, and the extended portion had a different format this time around.

I got different results this time around as well. A lot less 90 percentile matches. Bruce Banner is still in my top 10, though. Voldemort and several other villains are no longer in my top 100, either. I'm not sure if my lack of sleep has confounded the test results or if it's a combination of the different word pairs and different extended portion. But my top 3 results from last time got bumped out of my top 100 overall this time; Dexter Morgan got bumped down to #175, Dr. Jumba Jookiba to #461, and Scorpius down to #691.

It could also be that I barely had any politically charged word pairs this time around (no 'politically correct to edgy' scale amongst others).
I'll have to try this again once I've gotten better sleep.
