Which Fictional Character Had The Best Onscreen Introduction?

Aaron Sorkin loves a strong entrance, doesn't he?

A movie or show is only as strong as the characters it consists of, methinks.

ABC

However, where there's a strong character, there's an even stronger character entrance.

CBS

Like Will McAvoy's impressive monologue about how America is no longer the greatest country in the world on The Newsroom:

HBO

Or Miranda Priestley's "loin-girding" entrance into the Runway offices in The Devil Wears Prada:

20th Century Fox

Or President Bartlett's Christ-like end-of-episode arrival on The West Wing:

An angry white man asks what the First Commandment is on "The West Wing."
Pres. Bartlett enters the Oval while reciting the First Commandment on "The West Wing."
NBC

You can watch the full scene here.

Or maybe it was Miranda Bailey's iconic list of expectations on Grey's Anatomy:

Bailey looks at her four interns with disgust as she tells them to memorize her rules on "Grey's Anatomy."
ABC
