Top Ten Characters We Most Want to Party With

#10 - Hiro Nakamura
Okay so he’s not so much the biggest party animal, or, who knows, maybe he is? But for some reason our favorite sword-wielding Hero makes the list - we think maybe because anyone who can be that cheerful in the face of death would be a fun addition to any party.

#9 - Faith
Our second favorite Vampire Slayer beats out the show’s eponymous heroine thanks to a chaotic and cavalier world-view, and she’s got the moves on the dance floor to back it up. And isn’t sex always more exciting when there’s a possibility you’re going to get killed in the process - n’est ce pas, Xander? Also Buffy has not such a great track record with parties… see: various Halloween parties, frat parties, and of course most of her birthdays.

#8 - Hurley
Whether or not the party in question is on the Lost island, you can count on Hurley to bring the best snacks and provide all the best lines. Of course any normal house party is going to beat an island party featuring Dharma pretzels, ranch dressing, and stale VW bus beer, but for the wit alone we’ll take Hurley anywhere.

#7 - Hedonismbot
Possibly the only character in history who was actually designed exclusively with partying in mind. We have to imagine that the early 31st century will have been a far less fun place without everyone’s favorite gold-plated Dionysian mechano-man.

#6 - Jack Burton
It’s Han Solo as an 80’s truck driver battling ancient evil in what appears to be an underground Miami shopping mall in San Francisco’s Little China! Only Kurt Russell at his sexiest could deliver on this character who’s several kinds of big trouble and bad attitude wrapped in a tank top. And hey if he’s good enough for Kim Cattrall he’s good enough for us.

#5 - Spike
Are we thinking soulless Spike or re-ensouled Spike? Hmm… best not to answer that. Either way we’ll take the prince of the black leather duster, always ready for a good time with his flask of bourbon at the ready. We’d start the evening with a back-room card game (for kittens of course) followed by a bar brawl and a ride on the back of his hog. Mmmm, good times.

#4 - Starbuck
Sorry Dirk Benedict, we mean the new one. She can drink almost anyone under the table, and if we’re going to have to pay for an evening of debauchery with a night in the brig, we might as well spend it with the hottest person in the Colonial military. We don’t know whether or not she’s a Cylon, but the Cylons seem to have a pretty good time what with Basestars full of kinky threeways and so forth.

#3 - Bender Bending Rodriguez
And the winner of any drinking contest would of course be everyone’s favorite alcohol-fueled kleptomaniac robot, who brings the party to him, thanks to his bad attitude and seemingly bottomless chest cavity. Any evening spent hanging out with Bender means you end up with empty pockets and a splitting headache, but that’s pretty much true of any good night out and at least Bender’s likely to destroy half his surroundings in the process.

#2 - Captain Jack Harkness
But who needs the 31st century, if everyone in the 51st century is really as fun as our favorite time-traveling bisexual dude. The Doctor tells us sexuality is a non-issue for a guy who allegedly sleeps with dozens of random alien races, and from what we’ve seen he knows how to treat a guy. And a girl. And a… whatever. Sure makes us wish we were in Ianto’s shoes.

#1 - Jadzia Dax
Where to begin… Jadzia makes her own party, and with 300 years of wild experiences as both a man and a woman, JD’s seen and done it all. Let’s face it, Starfleet crews are fun to watch when they’re furiously reversing something’s polarity, but they aren’t exactly the first people we’d want at our party - actually they’d pretty much be the last, just ahead of The Lone Gunmen and C-3PO. She leaves the baggage behind in favor of whatever’s handy and fun… blood wine, dabo games, wild Klingon sex, whatever. Of course she’s too coy to own up to everything, but she’s dropped enough hints over time to add up to her being our #1 person we want to party with.
