Frank Underwood - House of Cards
Saga Noren - Bron/Broen
2 good choices. I loved the Saga Noren character on "The Bridge". Great show.
I would have to put Claire Underwood right along side Frank Underwood. It will be interesting to see how they wrap the show up in Season 6.

Indeed, as someone listed a few posts down: Carrie, in Homeland.
In the last couple of seasons the character has gotten overplayed and predictable, and is much less interesting. However, in the earlier seasons I think Claire Danes portrayal of this very conflicted character was an acting "tour-de-force". Especially when she was experiencing her manic modes, dealing with her own family, and her medications.

Well there's no Frank in S6. Nov 2nd release date on the calendar already.

One more damaged detective: Grace Hanadarko (Holly Hunter) in Saving Grace, and her angel, Earl.
+1, +1.

As long as we are listing Jean Luc Picard, I'll add "Q" and Data.
+1 esp. for Data. The episode where he plays his evil brother, himself, and his father was golden.

Gus Fring from Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul. You know, the owner of Los Pollos Hermanos, the fast food chicken restaurant.
He may not be the most compelling character ever but I find him extremely compelling.
