I thought some of the ASOIAF characters were rather non-descript or boring. I really liked Tyrion, though.
And all the chars from Small Gods by Pratchett.

In the MBotF, definitely Paran and Itkovian. Otherwise, Bellis (from 'The Scar'), Mat Cauthon are two that spring immediately to mind. I'll think of others over time

Curses! If my monitor hadn't been broken I would have been the first to mention Corfe. Having just finished the Monarchies of God, I have to say I was just blown away.

I'll caution you that the the video release of Merlin is hacked-down considerably from the original mini-series, but perhaps the DVD has the whole thing in it's entirety.

Merlin - From the miniseries with Sam Neil
You've read the books? Or just seen teh series? I've never met anyone who read the books as well, I personally thought they were surprisingly good, if light.
