Two spaceships, two velociraptors, a poo, a muppet, a computer virus and more in no particular order.

1. 15 Best Non-human TV characters of past 20 years

2. DominarRygel XVI The most selfish deposed king in the universe had a knack for hiding his heart. We know you cared, Rygie.

3. Hexadecimal Part dominatrix, part computer virus... fully insane. Her arc was tragic. She reverted her face lift to battle the biggest threat the tiny village of Mainframe ever faced. From villain to redeemer and back again.

4. Albert Calavicci Loophole! Al was a hologram in the Quantum Leap series. And come on, you know Al was really just a metaphor for Sam's id.

5. Mr. Hankey Proof that we wont flush anything imbued with Christmas spirit.

6. Quark This furrowed Ferangi brought patriarchal piety to a whole a new level.

7. Porkchop Doug Funny's best friend lived many secret lives.

8. La La Lady La La made the other Teletubbies look like fuddyduddies.

9. Moya & Pilot There was only one way for Pilot to get off his home world – enter into a lifetime appointment as symbiotic pilot of a living ship.

10. Ren & Stimpy Unlike Pilot & Moya, these guys had a choice to part ways without mortality being a factor. But neigh. Some people are best defined by their misery. And miserable Ren was, every time Stimpy tongued out another mound of ripe kitty litter.

11. Darwin The chatty dolphin from Seaquest-DSV loved to save his favorite sci-sub.

12. Squirtle Remember that scene from cop-drama The Wire when McNulty and Bunk crack a case with expletives? Squirtle also prooves that a one-word lexicon gets the point across as well as one thick as Webster’s.

13. Dinobot Another character programmed with conflicting algorithms. To terrorize or maximize? That is the question.

14. Jurrasic Park Velociraptor "Clever Girl" But not clever enough to escape the jaws of the Deus Rex Machina.

15. Serenity Often referred to as the 9th character on the short-lived space-western Firefly.

16. Catalina Before Jewel Staite fixed Serenity’s inner workin’s, she was Titian. No, not like the painter. Like a citizen of a moon that orbits Saturn.
