Line 92:
* ''[[Magnum PI]]'' had Magnum himself -- Tom Selleck's mustache is legendary.
* Rembrandt "Crying Man" Brown from ''[[Sliders]]'', a musician with more soul than any mere soulpatch could carry.
* ''The'' [[The Brigadier|Brigadier]], in ''[[Doctor Who (TV)|Doctor Who]]''.
* ''[[Monk]]'''s Captain Stottlemeyer sports this distinctive mustache.
* Lampshaded on ''[[That Seventies Show]]'' when Kelso joins the police academy and grows a mustache purely because of his new career choice.
Line 131:
==== [[Video Games]] ====
* In [[Role Playing Game|RPGs]], it's usually the [[White Magician Girl]] who has the longest tresses.
* Midna from ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess (Video Game)|The Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess]]'' wears her hair in a very long ponytail (so that it can [[Prehensile Hair|act as a hand]]); she is, however, a [[Tsundere]] instead. {{spoiler|In her true form, she has an odd form of [[Princess Curls]], which are joined at her neck like bonnet strings.}}
 
 
Line 287:
** About 13 minutes into ''[[Star Trek Deep Space Nine (TV)|DS9]]'' episode "Defiant", we see William Riker (a good guy; see way, way, above) {{spoiler|pull off the sides to reveal himself to actually be... William "Tom" Riker, his transporter-produced twin, who now wears an ("evil") goatee instead of a ("good") full beard! Oh no!}}
* Another "Mirror, Mirror" homage comes from ''[[MST3K]]'', in which Crow gets transported into an alternate dimension version of Deep 13 run by an Evil Mike. Evil Mike has a goatee.
* The Master from ''[[Doctor Who (TV)|Doctor Who]]'' sports a goatee in the incarnations played by both Roger Delgado and Anthony Ainley.
* In the ''[[Stargate SG-1]]'' episode "Point of View", Apophis in the [[Alternate Universe]] had a goatee, as did Teal'c (who, in this universe, was still his First Prime). In the fourth season, "our" Teal'c himself sported a goatee (actually it was more like a chin caterpillar) for a short while.
** Perhaps inspired by "Mirror, Mirror" (Spock and Teal'c are both [[The Stoic]] of their teams), the alternate universe Teal'cs seem to be exactly the same ''except'' for their varying hair styles.
Line 461:
* [[John Waters]], hero to [[Refuge in Vulgarity|some]], villain to [[Moral Guardians|others]].
* The pencil mustache was an iconic trait of [[Vincent Price]].
* Syrian president Bashar al-Assad [http[wikipedia://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Bashar_alBashar al-Assad_%28cropped%Assad chr(28)croppedchr(29).jpg |has one]]. Though he didn't really become a full-blown villain until he had his army attack groups of protesters against his regime.
 
 
Line 526:
* In ''[[Devil May Cry]]'', Vergil, Dante's evil twin and main villain of the third game, has slicked-back hair. The game even includes two dramatic cutscenes of him slicking it back after it gets out of place, and [[Super Move Portrait Attack|seeing him do this]] in ''[[Marvel vs. Capcom 3 (Video Game)|UMvC3]]'' heralds [[Limit Break|incoming pain]].
* Seifer of ''[[Final Fantasy VIII]]'', a [[Rival Turned Evil]].
* Inverted in ''[[Fire Emblem]] 7'', where Hector sports slicked-back hair but he's [[Hot -Blooded]] and one of [[Two Guys and A Girl|the]] [[Power Trio|three]] [[The Hero|heroes]] of the game.
 
 
Line 545:
 
==== [[Comic Books]] ====
* [[Morbius|Morbius the Living Vampire]] from ''[[Spider-Man (Comic Book)|Spider-Man]]'' (who started out as a [[Tragic Hero]] antagonist, but became a [[Nineties Anti -Hero]]) is occasionally shown with one, most notably in ''[[Spider Man the Animated Series]]''.
 
 
Line 555:
* Future Hiro from ''[[Heroes (TV)|Heroes]]'' has one of these. Unlike the energetic past Hiro, though, he fights in a dystopian future, and has stained his hands with enough blood to count as an [[Anti-Hero]].
* Tommy Oliver, the most renowned [[Sixth Ranger]] from ''[[Power Rangers]]'' history, who through the early seasons went back and forth between good and evil, also sports an anti-heroic soul patch.
* [[Twenty Four|Tony Almeida of CTU]] had one during his entire run on the show, from good guy to antihero to {{spoiler|[[Almost -Dead Guy]] to [[Back From the Dead]] Guy}}. In fact, "Soul Patch" was his nickname in all the [[Television Without Pity]] recaps.
 
 
Line 709:
* Or Johnny Weir
* Or Evegni Plushenko
* Or you sell popsicles in Chile. The Chilean name for the mullet is [http://en.[wikipedia.org/wiki/Chocolito_Panda:Chocolito Panda|"Choco Panda"]], because of one of the most popular popsicles there... usually sold by guys who sport mullets.
** Plus, stating something like that sounds like something an [[Alpha Bitch]] would say...
 
Line 734:
 
===== [[Live Action TV]] =====
* Nyssa in ''[[Doctor Who (TV)|Doctor Who]]''.
** OK, the Fourth Doctor doesn't quite count as innocent, but definitely on the side of the good guys.
*** He's definitely one of the more light-hearted incarnations, however. And probably the most iconic.
** The Eighth Doctor has rather long curly locks, and starts out quite innocent and childlike due to an unfortunate spot of amnesia. Even when he starts getting his memory back, he's still very [[Actual Pacifist|pacifistic]] and [[The Messiah|forgiving]]. Another aspect of his appearance which emphasizes his innocence: he walks around barefoot for quite a few scenes (even though he apparently ''does'' [[Does Not Like Shoes|like shoes]]).
* Blake and Gan from ''[[Blake's Seven (TV)|Blakes Seven]]'' both have curly hair and are both (initially) the most innocent characters - Gan is literally incapable of killing anyone in a [[Life Is Cheap]] universe and Blake remains a comparatively innocent idealist in a crew comprised of convicted criminals - he is the only one innocent of the charges against him.
* Chuck Bartowski from the NBC series ''[[Chuck]]'' sports curly hair, and either an ear to ear smile, or a sad kicked puppy face.
* Fran Drescher of ''[[The Nanny]]'' belongs firmly in this category.
Line 775:
** Ironically, Faith had curly or wavy dark hair by default, yet when she had her [[Face Heel Turn]] and she became a little [[Ax Crazy]] in the third season her hair was worn straight.
** Glory had strawberry blonde, wavy hair making her looked innocent but also [[Ax Crazy]].
* While certainly not [[Ax Crazy]], the curly-haired Sixth Doctor from ''[[Doctor Who (TV)|Doctor Who]]'' was one of the Doctor's nastier and more unstable incarnations.
