Of all the minor characters I really feel he's the most developed, the most interesting and the most likely to be seen again. He's a classic criminal middle-man in a position to give Serenity lots of business and cause them a lot of trouble.

My dream scenario would have Badger and his crew pulling a deal somewhere out on the rim (where the wheel never stops turning).

Normally, Badger wouldn't budge from his "gorram den". He hires Reynolds et al to do it on a percentage basis but then has 2nd thoughts - this deal is so sensitive, so sweet, that he decides to handle it himself and "forgets" to tell our BDH they're out of the picture.

Everything would be going just fine...until the Reavers arrive. Desperate scenes, desperate decisions to be made, all looks lost until our BDH arrive, double-crossed and looking for Badger. So many ways it could go - BDH save Badger, Badger has to choose between own skin and innocents, sacrifices made, somehow it has to turn out that Badger says "sorry" and "thank you" and Mal slugs him by way of accepting the apology.

Also, Jayne and Vera must feature prominently along with some wierd-ass weapon that Wash and Kayley cook up on the spur of the moment.

That's the way it should be....

Holden Webster was the best one-episode character I've ever seen on television. Joss did a totally perfect job of writing dialog for the goofy psychoanalyzing vampire and Jonathan Woodward was brilliant in portraying him. Nearly every line was a memorable one without all the scenes being too hammy or OTT.

thanks. now I somewhat know who we're talking about. but I can't say either of them impressed me much.

but just this moment another recurring bad-guy comes to mind: Sajan (sp?) I always loved him somehow. there was a scene with Angel and Lilah and Sajan in a bar where he was late and didn't know what the were talking about and then spilled his big secret in a fit of indignant rage about them consorting behind his back or somesuch thing. made you feel for the poor time-travelling demon who doesn't always get audio.

and speaking of Lilah I always loved her too. she was consistently evil, or at least egocentric, until she fell for Wes. and she was willing to take what came with being evil, she never tried to get out of her deal with W&H for instance. as opposed to Lindsay who never seemed to be able to make up his mind on who's side he's on today.

there's lots of great characters in all the JW shows, not only the ones in the credits.

I don't think Sahjhan or Groo are really minor characters. IMDB says Sahjhan is in 8 eps and Groo 9 - not particularly minor if you ask me. But both were good, and underused in the long run.

There was the informer demon on Angel...Merl. I thought he was great...Also, according to the criteria mentioned, wouldn't Lindsay, Lilah, and most anyone from Wolfram and Hart be up for mentioning...That would mean Gavin and Holland as well.

I know you said no credit sequences, and, even though he got his own, I thought Jonathon was one of the redeeming things about season 6.

Angel: The guy who owned the bookstore in season three and four I think it was. And the little Demon Midget Fred meets in that hole. He cracked me up!!
Buffy: Clem - what a guy! Also Willy was a pretty cool observation - you always get the guy who profits from the worst kinda scum.
