Celebrities who use Twitter — and who don't — have been a hot topic for a while. But what about characters who tweet?
I first noticed the phenomenon of TV characters twittering (er, actual people twittering as TV characters) when it caused a little ruckus during the last season of Mad Men. AMC initially protested the idea of fans twittering as Don Draper or Roger Sterling but eventually let the twittering continue — and even interviewed the fan who tweets as Peggy Olson after she won a Shorty Award.
In addition to the Mad Men crew, I follow Coach Eric Taylor from Friday Night Lights and Rachel Berry from Glee. I'm not sure who runs those Twitter feeds (my guess is that Rachel's is done by Fox, while Coach's is a fan), but regardless, it's fun to see people try to channel what the characters would say on Twitter — kind of like fan fiction 2.0. What about you?

1it's so great.
Same with me, catstarr! Kelly and Ryan. I love it when they get into twitter fights!
2Yeah, I follow the characters from Bones. There are a lot of them, but it's pretty hilarious.
3It's hard to follow just one, once you followed one then you would want to do on some favorites and it never ends. We've got only 24/7.
4Yes, I follow the characters of True Blood because I am that obsessed with the show. LOL
5Definitely Ryan and Kelly. They're hilarious.
6coach taylor from FNL. i wish he would stop twittering about his wife
7no bcuz the ppl running them r usually fat ugly turds
8No, following the character's doesn't bring me much interest. I do follow some celebs/comedians, like Jim Gaffigan, Kevin Nealon and Stephen Colbert.
9I enjoy following the guys and Penny from Big Bang Theory.
10i did, but it's too boring and they usually just do promotion, which i find annoying.
11the gossip girl characters were hilarious, but they stopped! borat, bruno, kelly, and ryan are all in my list of followees.
12i follow kelly from the office
13I follow Barney Stinson's @brocode. Awesome as always
14Really? You can follow fictional characters? Thats a little strange to me.
15I follow Coach T, Matt and Julie from FNL – the only fictional characters I follow.
16But to make this less weird, I also follow the REAL Nathan Fillion, Alyson Hannigan, Sarah Silverman, Jason Segel, Ethan Sulpee and Leighton Meester.
My 2 favorite people to follow on twitter are @Saurik who developed CYDIA for the iphone which is awesome and @MindSmack for all of the best Internet, Mobile and World New updates daily.
17Nope, don't follow any Tv characters
