Homer Simpson has been awarded the titles of the best film and TV character of the past twenty years in a new survey by Entertainment Weekly.
Homer is best known for eating and drinking beer, which surprisingly enough was all it took for him to beat out Harry Potter for the top slot.
Matt Groening, the creator of Homer’s character, stated that people enjoy Homer because secretly they can relate to his desires, which most people are too embarrassed to admit while he gets to enjoy them out in the open.
In third place was Buffy the Vampire Slayer portrayed by Sarah Michelle Geller and in fourth place was Tony Soprano from of course, The Sopranos. Rounding out the top five was The Joker from The Dark Knight instalment of the Batman trilogy played by the late Heath Ledger.
Also ranking in the top ten were Hannibal Lector played by Anthony Hopkins, Rachel from Friends played by Jennifer Anniston, and Edward Scissorhands played by Johnny Depp.
In ninth and tenth place finishing off the top ten list was the child favourite Spongebob Squarepants and Carrie Bradshaw from Sex & the City played by Sarah Jessica Parker.
