"If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D. Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne "Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24

Agree 100% on this one
Also, I really love watching the old Clint Eastwood Westerns - Pale Rider, Hang ‘em High, Outlaw Josey Wales, and The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly.
I did say “TV”
Sorry TMats. I missed this clearly identified criteria. I deleted my original post. Sorry.

There are so many and most have been mentioned here that said I have to add….
George Peppard - John “Hannibal” Smith Dwight Schultz - Howling Mad Murdock
I just always picture those characters no matter what I see these actors in.
Ted Danson - Sam Malone also comes right to mind as well as Kelsey Grammar as Frasier.

I'm late to this thread with 99% of my choices already cited. But I don't think I saw any of these mentioned. And I cite but one of their better roles among many choices.
--Ingrid Bergman - Ilsa Lund in Casablanca --Helen Mirran - Victoria in Red --Anthony Hopkins - Hannibal Lecter --Judi Dench - M in Bond flicks --Christopher Walken as Nick Chevotarevich in The Deerhunter --Grace Kelly - Frances Stevens in To Catch a Thief --Michael Caine As Harry Palmer in The Ipcress File --Ian McKellen as Gandalf in The Lord of the Rings

This is much more difficult than I thought it would be.
On a positive note, looks like another thread is in the offing.

I would add Walter Goggins for Justified. Boyd Crowder was as much a star of the series as Raylan.
When in doubt, mumble

I would add Nick Searcy as Art Mullins from Justified as well

Little known fact, except to fans of the show, like me, they had him drive a Buick police car because he was too fat to fit in the regular squad cars that everybody else used!
