As a fan of The Sixth Doctor, I’m well-aware of the fact that he’s arrogant, bloviating, infuriating and egotistical. But, somehow, those negative aspects are part of his charm, much like his off-putting ensemble: Without the veneer of pleasantness, his genius alien nature is even more enhanced. Not every jerk can be a lovable jerk (Sorry, Hal), but those who pull it off, like Jayne Cobb or Ol’ Sixie, are often wonderful to behold, leading to today’s combative query…
The MS-QOTD (pronounced, as always, “misquoted”) would like to remind you that Stephen and I aren’t fictional and thus don’t count, asking: Who is the most lovable jerk in all of pop culture?
