''[[The Big Bang Theory]]'' - Sheldon seems to have his own version in his mind (not counting [[The Hero]] and [[The Lancer]]). When asked why he has to carry the heavy things, Sheldon tells Howard: "In our ragtag team of scientists with nothing to lose,"

|-

|[[The Smart Guy]]||Sheldon ("I'm the smart one")

|}

 

''[[Blackadder]]'' Most obvious in ''Blackadder goes Forth'', but if you think about it, the five principle actors fall into these roles as well.

|-

|[[The Hero]]||Rowen Atkinson as Blackadder

|}

''[[The Closer]]''

|-

|[[The Hero]]||Deputy Chief Brenda Leigh Johnson

** Provenza and Flynn are not dumb; however, they do have a habit of getting themselves into [[Hilarity Ensues|trouble]].

|-

|[[The Hero]]||Cher

|}

|-

|[[The Hero]]||Hayden

|}

 

''[[Community]]''

|-

|[[The Hero]]||Jeff

|}

 

''[[Criminal Minds]]''

|-

|[[The Hero]]||Aaron Hotchner

** Actually, Hotch is The Hero pretty straight since he is the unit cheif. Even when {{spoiler|Morgan is chief}} he's more of a figure head. Gideon and Rossi are the scruffy more laid back contrast to Hotch's uptight straightforward leading which is right inline with The Lancer. Reid is far too useful to be The Chick.

|-

|[[The Hero]]/[[The Smart Guy]]||The Doctor

|}

 

''[[Doctor Who]]'': The 12-episode mammoth ''The Dalek's Master Plan'' (the only episode to actually get there - ''The Chase'' got rid of Barbara and Ian before adding Steven, so it doesn't really count)

|-

|[[The Hero]]||The Doctor

|}
