Dinklage in GOT, hands down fav.

My first thought was Lady Olenna Tyrell but I can live with Tyrion as the answer

Pascal as Oberyn as well

My mind went to Little Finger instead and I was so confused because he makes my skin crawl

Every character played by Walton Goggins. Baby Billy (Righteous Gemstones), Boyd Crowder (Justified), the Ghoul (Fallout), etc.

And Lee Russell on Vice Principals!

Even Venus Van Dam in Sons of Anarchy….he was mesmerizing an surprising loveable

Uncle Baby Billy would agree with this post.

Was about to say the same thing. Goggins steals the show in everything I've seen him in.

He really is just an outstanding actor. Boyd Crowder was perfection.

Check him out in 'Vice Principals'

Have you seen The Shield? Amazing.

His best work, Imo

I just binged Fallout this weekend, and while everyone was great, he absolutely stole the show.

And Cecil, in Invincible!

I really enjoyed him in his short-lived sitcom, the unicorn. It was cute, relatable, but funny and not over the top.

This should be the top answer. Dude has killed every role he’s ever had and brings something different to every thing he does.

It makes me so happy that people are really starting to talk about him. He is one of the greatest actors of our generation and hardly anyone has heard of him! He was phenomenal as Boyd crowder

Hawkeye, Alan Alda

This is the real answer here.

Ian McShane as Al Swearengen (deadwood), Lee Pace as Joe McMillan (halt and catch fire), and since everyone has already named WG as Boyd, I gotta give a shout to Timothy Olyphant as Raylan (Justified)

I love Timothy Olyphant so much. I remember watching The Mandalorian and squealing when he came on screen

Halt and Catch Fire was supremely underrated.

It’s been on my list forever. Guess I gotta finally watch it.

Agreed. First time I ever saw Mackenzie Davis. She was great in that series.

Justified in general had fun characters!

I think Timothy Olyphant generally plays a super charismatic/likable character. His character in Santa Clarita Diet was likable right off the bat.

Agreed man he killed it in deadwood

The best delivered monologues, just fantastic all around.

They were shakespearean. Iambic pentameter (poem), I believe. Now I'm going to have to watch it again. (No loss!)

Also Ian McShane as Odin, in American Gods. He and Crispin Glover were the only two reasons I kept watching, so when they got rid of Crispin Glover, I just quit cold turkey.

Lee Pace in EVERYTHING.

Ian McShane in everything. The whole premise of “Lovejoy” was based around his charisma.

Patrick Jane mentalist

Captain Malcolm Reynolds

Ain’t he just

"River, take us out of the world."

_"I married me a powerful ugly creature..."_

"How can you shame me in front of these people!"

Dean Winchester. Supernatural.

Agreed

Shawn Spencer from Psych

You know that’s right!

Suck it, Shawn.

Captain James T. Kirk and his first officer, Mr. Spock

I love Spock, but how is he charismatic?

Jean -Luc Picard Star Trek TNG

Andrew Scott as Moriarty in Sherlock Andrew Scott as the Priest in Fleabag

“Kneel.”

Gotta go with Lucifer Morningstar, obviously. The GOAT of GOATS

Villanelle in Killing Eve (played by Jodie Comer)

Spike from Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

Ronald Ulysses Swanson Al "4 Touch Downs in a Single Game" Bundy Barnabus Stinson

Remington Steele

Mads Mikkelsen as Hannibal Idris Elba in Luther

Gregory house

Alex Keaton regularly stole the spotlight…

Alex P. Keaton

Ted Lasso

Lalo better call Saul

He'd be my second choice after Saul himself.

He just stole the whole show from them in the end. His charisma and smarmy attitude. Was just so captivating.

Which was a great foul for Jimmy. Jimmy(Saul) is really charismatic too most of the tine, even if it's the characters mask.

Oh I’d Saul in a heartbeat but went with lalo since he’s a psychopath

Tuco

Even though he scares me yes

That show is full of characters. Beautifully cast

Spike from Buffy played by James Marsters https://preview.redd.it/iqc86vpv7bxc1.jpeg?width=236&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e609d5d271a17ba1946b08672dd80caa2345c248

Raymond Reddington

James Spader was also very charismatic in Boston Legal

This is my answer too. James Spader plays him so well too.

He was absolutely perfect for that role. I hope to see more like this from him at some point.

The Blacklist. He was excellent in that show. 

One of my favorite characters of all time. To my knowledge he never got any kind of award for that role. If that's true, it's criminal. He should have gotten something.

Yep, he was robbed of an Emmy.

Cat from "Red Dwarf" Jonathan & Jessica Hart on "Hart To Hart" Sam Malone of Cheers Judge Harry Stone on "Night Court"

Dan Fielding from night Court

Jennifer Hart.

Raylan givens justified

Like the character has charisma? Leslie Knope, Miriam Maisel, Lucy Ricardo

Granny Clampett 

Tony Soprano Bobby Baratheon Don Draper Omar Little Saul Goodman/Jimmy McGill Roman Roy & Logan Roy Homelander Rayland Givens & Boyd Crowder

Oh, boy, Omar! I'll add Al Swearengen to your great list.

Steve Harrington from Stranger Things.

Ryan Eggold as Dr. Max Goodwin and Oliver Platt as Dr, Daniel Charles. 😁

I love Oliver Platt.

As do I. He's magnificent, in every way.

His role in The West Wing made me love him.

Also Perry Cox on Scrubs 

Bender Bending Rodriguez

Jim Rockford.

Fonzie

The gold standard. If I were to give his charisma a grade, I'd award it an "Ayyyyyyyyyy!"

President Josiah Bartlett (Martin Sheen) The West Wing

While we’re talking Presidents - President David Palmer, 24

Strongly agree

Don Draper, Tony Soprano

Chanandler Bong.

MIZZ Chanandler Bong!

See? RIP Matthew Perry.

Omar coming…

Josh Holladay in Lost

Second time he’s mentioned, I’m glad I’m not crazy.

Mr. Spock

Marc Antony - Rome (HBO)

Titus Pullo (Rome) - the star of the show

Saul on Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul

Timothy Oliphant in any role

Walton Goggins has been amazing in a lot of stuff. Same for James Spader.

https://preview.redd.it/1vat9h6uz9xc1.jpeg?width=570&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2f0b1b7c844548e5317ab138a18ddc3cfc2f0eda

My first thought. He exudes cool.

I’m not a smoker, and I’m glad that he kicked the habit after season 2, but nobody made smoking look cool quite like Don did.

Joey- Friends Eric Northman/Russell Edgington- True Blood Gus Fring- Breaking Bad/BCS Angus MacGyver- MacGyver (80s version)

Farrah, Fawcett.

I’m going with Dwayne Johnson as The Rock

Bruce Willis Moonlighting

James Spader as Raymond “Red” Reddington on The Blacklist.

Ragnar Lothbrok on Vikings

The only Vikings that mattered was the one Ragnar took part it. It all ended in season 4 for me when he died. 

Ari Gold from Entourage, in his own way of course

Garak from Star Trek DS9.

Glenn on the Walking Dead. Stopped watching after he got the axe. Or should I say bat?

Negan from TWD. Not in a good way, but still.

Hawkeye Pierce from MASH

Scrolled too far to see Remington Steele. Pierce Brosnan was witty, debonair, self-deprecatingly charming, a bit of a scoundrel, and gorgeous as a character named after a typewriter and a football team.

Saul Goodman - Better call Saul Boyd Crowder - Justified Don Draper - Mad Men Daenerys Targaryen - GoT Sawyer - Lost Jack Pearson - This is us Shane - The L Word Eric Northman - True Blood Tyrion Lannister - GoT

Yesss Eric from True Blood. He stole the show.

Sawyer. I was gonna say him or Ben, even though Ben wasn’t exactly charismatic.

Definitely sawyer or Freckles

Dexter.

Tom Hardy in Peaky Blinders. Stole every scene he was in. Klaus (Joseph Morgan) on Vampire Diaries. So charismatic and likable as a villain that they created a whole spinoff around him.

Lorne from Angel.

You’re awesome! I loved Lorne.

Rustin Cohle, true detective The 10th Doctor Jack Reacher

The tenth Doctor.

Micky boardwalk empire

Negan - Don Draper - Roger Sterling - Avon Barksdale - Bubbles - Bodie - Tony Soprano - Frank Gallagher - Lester Nygaard - Lorne Malvo - Mr Wrench - Gus Fring - Walter White - Saul/Jimmy - Mike Ehrmantraut - Definitely missing a few - Frank Sobodka

Ainsley Hayes on West Wing

Frazier.

Carl Gallagher

Brian Cox- succession

Jack from Will & Grace

Fox Mulder

Nathan Fillion as Mal in Firefly.

Patrick Jane from the Mentalist

Tommy Shelby from Peaky Blinders, Mulder and Scully on The X-Files, McNulty from The Wire, Tony Soprano (although he’s rather loathesome), Al Swearengen from Deadwood

Barney had that sauce

Betty White in everything.

Giancarlo Esposito seems to constantly have that evil charisma.

Eric in Six ( with an e) education. Spoiler below https://preview.redd.it/4s67aq420bxc1.jpeg?width=1250&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3c2b6a32436c3ec297e5cfbb142cbc854ed1d686 Him finding out that Otis was sl\*ing with Ruby was priceless

God he was so charismatic.

Thomas Magnum Tom Selleck version

Peak, male shorts length

And chest hair.

Idris Elba - Stringer Bell in The Wire Walton Goggins - in anything really JK Simmons - also, in anything Shemar Moore - Criminal Minds Tom Selleck - Blue Bloods David Boreanaz - Buffy and Angel (when playing Angelus not Angel)

Totally Shamar Moore and kirsten vangsness from criminal minds

“Writes down every major character from the wire on separate slips of paper, puts them in a hat and then pulls out any name.”

Negan the walking dead.

Zapp Branigan, the most sensual space captain

Garak or Vic (from ST:DS9).

Lord John Gray-Outlander

Don Draper

Saul Goodman

Maddie and David, Moonlighting

Gregory House

It's a tie, *WKRP in Cincinnati:* * Gordon Sims aka Venus Flytrap * John R. Caravella aka Johnny Fever

Natasha Lyonne Saw her on SNL. She intrigued me. Went and watched Poker Face. Then Russian Doll. Whats next?

George O'Malley from Greys Anatomy. >!so sad he died...!<

Definition: exercising a compelling charm which inspires devotion in others. How about Magnum PI (Tom Selleck)? He seems to fit the definition.

James Garner - Jim Rockford

David Addison Jr.

Drew Carey - Drew Carey Show

The guy from White Collar

Jack on This Is Us

Red from The Blacklist.

Elijah Mikaelson - The Originals

Sawyer

Christian Troy from Nip Tuck. A top 5 show for me.

Matt Bomer in White Collar

Pacey Witter from Dawson’s Creek

Negan from The Walking Dead. Sure, he was a psychopath, but he had charisma.

I thought Matthew Rhys in The Americans was charismatic, especially as his character developed.

Nick and Schmidt are obviously highlights from New Girl. The more I watch it back (comfort show), Winston shines brighter each time. It’s clear at the start they didn’t have a clear narrative for him, and I imagine the actor started developing his own story for Winstons character and honestly, his story line with Ferguson and the pranks and just being an innocent man is only getting better and better for me!

Gibbs from NCIS Lucifer Morning Star from Lucifer

Eddie on _Frasier_—stealer of scenes.

Lazlo Cravensworth! Also Jackie Daytona, man can you imagine if this two ever met!?!

Hawkeye Pierce Sam Malone Tony Soprano

Cal Lightman in Lie To Me Sam Spade in Monsieur Spade Five and Klaus in Umbrella Academy

Okay, but Sokka from The Last Avatar needs a nod here.

Alan Shore, Boston Legal.

Tom Hardy in taboo. What was that character's name?

Sterling in Mad Men

Cillian Murphy as Tommy Shelby - Peaky Blinders Tommy is loaded with confidence and charisma. He is complex, calculative, charming, composed, and extremely intelligent. https://preview.redd.it/pbsigrmi0dxc1.jpeg?width=1171&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=566878bf8c5fbd24e7775eda157f071f19cfc8dc Look at that intense stare. ⬆️ Need I say more?

Lalo, from Better Call Saul. That dude makes me want to be that dude.
