2. Lorne Malvo - Fargo: Season One
Billy Bob reminds people every few years just how great he can be, and he delivered career-best work in the first season of Fargo. Lorne Malvo must rank as one of the greatest psychopathss to ever grace television; hes an intelligent, manipulative predator who can and frequently does - explode into violence at any given moment. Billy Bob plays Malvo with an eerie calm thats chilling to watch, and even when hes murdering people it rarely feels personal one way or the other. Lorne is also a great actor himself, with the ability to blend in and appear normal depending on who hes around. Thornton is never less than mesmerizing in the role, and hes given a number of memorable scenes like meeting Sam Hess for the first time or the infamous elevator sequence to display just how good he can be. Malvo is a rare combination of the perfect character for the perfect actor, and he duly won a Golden Globe for his work on the show.
