Animaniacs was great @Padre totally with you.

Red Dwarf and Blackadder definitely shaped my childhood. Absolutely world class stuff, even though Red Dwarf declined thoroughly in the later series. I think Series 6 was my favourite. I lost count of the number of times I watched Gunmen of the Apocalypse.

I made an alignment meme of some of my favourite (and despised, in case of one) British children's TV characters:

I don't expect many of you will be able to name all of them, but as a fellow Briton @Lizards of Renown will get a fair few of them, especially the ones who originated in the 80s and early 90s.

What are you referring to by these two? Initials aren't always helpful when I don't know what they mean ;)

Besides, they're wrong answers anyway - Top left is Raven, who is the very definition of Lawful Good. He was my favourite television character in the latter years of my childhood. The Neutral Evil character you couldn't get is Nevar, his arch-enemy and demon lord supreme. I considered him Lawful Evil for a long while as he aims to conquer the world, but he's more of a selfish character who works alone and summons his own army when he needs it, so Neutral Evil it is for him. True Neutral is Treguard from Knightmare, I'm surprised you didn't get him as Knightmare first emerged in the 80s at the height of RPGs' popularity. I believe he'd be True Neutral because though he is jubilant when contestants win, he doesn't always look hugely sorry when they fail either, and he only interacts with those who enter his castle to take on his challenges. Ignore his castle, and he won't help or hinder you.

All correct, I predicted you'd get those ones right.

I'm not surprised you didn't get the Lawful Evil character here, it's one from a 2000s show. She's the Voice, from the gameshow Trapped. She's a malevolent entity that rules over the Tower from the series with an iron... well, voice. Definitely a Lawful Evil character who brings her own dictatorial order to any building she can haunt.

Postman Pat I thought would be Neutral Good because he's doubtlessly a Good-aligned character but neither brings order or withdraws it.

Badger is definitely Chaotic Good. He is easily capable of bringing untold chaos to any place where mash potato is easily accessible, but he has a heart of gold underneath that. He cares about his friends Simon and Mousey and wilfully comes to their rescue if they're threatened with eviction.

Thomas and the other engines of Sodor I believe are Lawful Neutral because they do what the Fat Controller tells them and seek to keep the railway orderly at his behest, but can also sometimes follow their negative impulses and cause confusion and delay.

Basil Brush I think is fitting for a Chaotic Neutral character because he has less of a desire to help others than Badger does, all the while possessing a similar talent for causing trouble.

For Chaotic Evil I first thought of Mr. Blobby, for he is the Fifth Chaos God and an avatar of ceaseless destruction and anarchy, but he wasn't actually a character of my childhood, I was born after Blobbymania died a death and I only discovered him pretty recently. Instead, I chose Peppa because as a child I did briefly watch her show, something I now regret as an adult, and during that exposure to her I could clearly see her talent for selfish, wilful troublemaking and her disdain toward all other life. And this is just as a child - she could easily grow up to surpass Blobby in destructive capabilities.
