* ''Series/BandOfBrothers'': "Wild Bill" Guarnere, who is a RealLife example, as Bill Guarnere is pushing 90 with no sign of slowing down.
* ''Series/{{Blackadder}}'':
** King Richard IV, played by Creator/BrianBlessed.
** Lord Flashheart.
** Creator/TomBaker's appearance as Captain Redbeard Rum in Season II is a mixture of this and CloudCuckoolander. So's Tom Baker himself, actually.
* Sam Axe, played by the immortal Creator/BruceCampbell, in ''Series/BurnNotice''. Semi-subverted in that Sam is actually just as smart as Michael and Fi, and his supposed dumbness is ObfuscatingStupidity.
* Casey from ''Series/{{Chuck}}'' can occasionally fit in here, though he's mostly the ComicallySerious and can cross over into outright BloodKnight sometimes.
* In ''Series/DoctorWho'', The Doctor has run into a few of these fellows over the years. Notably {{Bandito}} Arturo Villa in "The War Games" and King Ycranos (inevitably, he's played by Creator/BrianBlessed) in "Mindwarp".
** Don't forget Time Lord Omega from "The Three Doctors."
** And he's been one himself, in his [[Creator/ColinBaker Sixth incarnation]].
** Full time companion Donna Noble is one of the rare female examples. "''Oi, sunshine!''"
* ''Series/{{Firefly}}''
** [[Creator/AdamBaldwin Jayne Cobb]] seems to epitomize this trope when he's in a good mood.
** Monty the smuggler also fits. "I shaved MY BEARD off for you, you devil woman!!!"
** Sir Warrick Harrow manages to be a smart, ''sophisticated'' Boisterous Bruiser. With an Indoor Voice. He makes up for it with double the big-goofy-mentor-figure value.
* ''Series/GameOfThrones'':
** King Robert Baratheon is a jovial, grumpy and rowdy example, although age has only left the party animal and taken the great warrior away. This idea is deconstructed, as it turns out that an appetite for drinking, eating, fighting, and screwing is actually pretty incompatible with running seven kingdoms.
** Tormund Giantsbane is an absolute demon in combat, and he knows it.
** The Greatjon is a LargeHam and one of Robb's best fighters after all.
** The Smalljon gives off this vibe as this huge warrior with BrutalHonesty.
** Bronn loves singing, fighting, and fucking. He's very jolly, and very deadly.
* Corporal Josh Ray Person of ''Series/GenerationKill''. Oddly for this trope, he's on the skinny side and is the resident [[TheSmartGuy Smart Guy]].
* Andy, from ''Series/{{Graduados}}''
* Silas in ''Series/{{Highlander}}: The Series''; played by Richard Ridings.
* Momotaros in ''Series/KamenRiderDenO''.
** Kintaros is an even better example. Burly, strong, speaks in a Kansai accent, and is easily the most friendly and personable of the four.
* Gentarou, the eponymous ''Series/KamenRiderFourze''.
* Mr. (Isaiah) Edwards from ''Series/LittleHouseOnThePrairie'' is this trope personified. The books made him that way too, using a variant of the folk song ''Ol' Dan Tucker'' as his theme. The season 2 episode ("In The Big Inning") featured a huge brawl that broke out at the end of a baseball game, and saw Mr. Edwards gleefully taking out twice as many opponents as anyone else, taking the time to [[QuickNip chug a beer]] (or three) throughout the fight.
* ''Series/{{Merlin|2008}}'':
** Prince Arthur often goes hunting or engages in quests with gusto, especially in the beginning of the series.
** Arthur assumes everyone is basically a cheerful fighter, giving Merlin a friendly punch in the arm "to cheer him up", and when Merlin asks why on earth he thought that'd work Arthur replies, baffled, that it always works on the other Knights of Camelot. ("Well, they're a bit thick, aren't they?")
** Gwaine is extroverted, charming, loves to have a good time, and is an undisputed badass.
* Francis Lawrence "Larry" Kubiac III from ''Series/ParkerLewisCantLose''.
* ''Series/PoliticalAnimals'': Bud Hammond. He has a pretty mean right cross, as the Vice President finds out. He's also responsible for pretty much all the [[LargeHam scenery chewing]] in the show.
* Richard the Lionheart was portrayed this way in ''Series/RobinOfSherwood''.
* The titular character in ''Series/SledgeHammer'', so much so he [[CargoShip talks to his gun]], and in his first appearance took care of a sniper by blowing up the building under him.
* ''Series/{{The Tick|2016}}'' in [[Series/{{The Tick|2001}} both]] iterations, my good chum!
* B.A. Baracus (Mr. T) of ''Series/TheATeam''.
* In ''Series/TheRoughRiders'', General Wheeler has come out of retirement to lead the cavalry in Cuba, and is enjoying the hell out of it.
--> '''Wheeler''': "We got them damn Yankees on the run!"
--> '''Aide''': "Spaniards, sir, and they're retreating to prepared positions."
--> '''Wheeler''': "Don't spoil it, son!"
* [[Creator/JensenAckles Dean Winchester]] of ''Series/{{Supernatural}}''
* ''Franchise/StarTrek'': The Klingons have made this their [[PlanetOfHats hat]]. And it's not just the fighters. Lawyers, scientists, restaurateurs, they all act like this all the time.
