LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) - In a poll commissioned by the science fiction magazine SFX to determine the top 10 sci fi characters of all time, cult hit "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" made an impressive showing, with Spike, Willow, Angel and Buffy herself taking four of the slots.

Three of the remaining six spots were also taken by TV characters, including "Farscape's" John Crichton and Aeryn Sun.

However, the top spot went to Dr. Who, the eccentric Brit who traveled through time and space in the guise of several actors over the course of 26 years from 1963 to '89.

The Top 10 Sci Fi Characters of All Time, in order, is as follows:

1. Doctor Who ("Doctor Who" )
2. Spike ("Buffy the Vampire Slayer")
3. Buffy Summers("Buffy the Vampire Slayer")
4. John Crichton ("Farscape")
5. Aeryn Sun ("Farscape")
6. Han Solo (the "Star Wars" saga)
7. Willow Rosenberg ("Buffy the Vampire Slayer")
8. Darth Vader (the "Star Wars" saga)
9. Angel ("Buffy the Vampire Slayer")
10. Gandalf ("Lord of the Rings" )

Spike's ahead of Buffy?! And Willow's ahead of Angel?!

Surprising!

No offense to the Buffy fans out there, but that has got to be the worst list I have ever seen.

You've got two friggin characters from "Farscape," and NONE from any of the Star Trek series?

Gimme a break.

You can say that again! What is the deal? Any Star Trek character is way cooler that any Farscape character!

And the Lord of the Rings is not Sci Fi. It's fantasy!Fantasy!

It's kind of cool so many Buffy characters got on the list, but they should've had a bigger list and included some Star Trek characters. I say Kirk and Spock should be on that list. Maybe Bones too.

"Maybe"? "Maybe"?


... I think we need our own sci fi poll. Do we have a sci fi board on here yet?

This is how I would have the results:

1.Catain Kirk(ST)
2.Spock(ST)
3.Bones(ST)
4.Willow Rosenberg(BtVS)
5.Giles(BtVS)
6.Buffy Summers(BtVS)
7.Captain Picard(ST:TNG)
8.Darth Vader(SW)
9.Han Solo(SW)
10.Spike(BtVS)

And no Gandalf! Gandalf would be number one on a fantasy poll, but has no place on a Sci Fi poll!

That's just me.
It is very difficult to place Kirk, Spock and Bones! Maybe that's why they weren't on the list!

It looks good, Max. Bones did throw a lot into ST. I don't think it would've been the same without him. If it was up to me, I'd put the rest of the ST cast up there too.

Aw, I'm watching that Star Dates thing on E. That chick was so cruel to Gary Coleman. He looked so sad.
