Carrie Mathison (Homeland) or Esther Drummond (Torchwood: Miracle Day)?



My vote goes to Esther Drummond. The one time that she does something correctly, there's a better (and obvious to everyone else on the show) thing that she could have done.

Although Torchwood:MD is mediocre at best, I'd recommend watching it just to laugh and marvel at her incredible incompetence.

Carrie is clearly a great CIA agent who SOMETIMES lets emotions get in the way

Out of those two? Carrie.

All TV? Stan Smith.

Annie Walker. At least Carrie is smart. Annie is a dumb bitch who constantly has to get bailed out of the moronic situations she puts herself in and never faces any consequences for any of it.

Sydney Bristow (Jennifer Garner) was awful on Alias.

What the frick are you talking about? Did you not watch this last season at all?

Spoilers (just in case)......











She was the single reason there even was a "last season"; that bait and switch must have been life-draining. Beyond just the setup, did you forget that she simultaneously saved brody's life in Iran (from the US gov, btw) while also putting the fear of god into him to go all in. Yea, her actions where irrational and she can be a crazy bitch at times, but she always knows how much she can get away with. And she is the single reason the primary operation of the season ended in a wild success. Emotional bitch does not equal useless agent.

She could possibly be considered incompetent due to her propensity for insubordination. But there is absolutely no argument to be made that she is useless.
