BEST FACIAL HAIR

Credit: Jesse Grant/Getty

Tandy's (Will Forte) brother plays a prank to end all pranks when he shaves off half of Tandy's facial hair in Last Man on Earth. But Tandy being "friggin' Tandy" wouldn't let anyone get the last laugh and keeps on rocking his new look despite it being absolutely ridiculous. That's commitment, my friends.

MOST LIKELY TO ALWAYS WEAR BLACK

Credit: Lifetime

You will never spot Quinn (Constance Zimmer) in UnREAL wearing color because, as the costume designer, Cynthia Summers, tells PeopleStyle, "There is no color in [her] world and there is no color in [her] outfits." If that seems harsh, there is a bright side— those black clothes come with high-fashion designer labels. "I love to put her in Victoria Beckham because it's tight and fabulous-looking, which is perfect for a character like her."

BEST WASH-AND-GO HAIR

Credit: FX

The People v. O.J. Simpson's Marcia Clark (played by Sarah Paulson) was the only woman on either legal team, and consequently she was the most scrutinized prosecutor on the O.J. Simpson case. She was ridiculed for her outfits and hair throughout the trial, but the busy mom-of-two just needed an easy hairstyle that was quick to manage (hence the perm). We, for one, are all for it.

MOST COMMITTED TO NORMCORE

Credit: Sarah Shatz/USA Network

Elliot Alderson (Rami Malek) in Mr. Robot is the ultimate poster child for the athleisure movement — whether he wants to be or not. Costume designer Catherine Marie Thomas said he prefers a uniform because "there's a callousness to the way he treats things like getting dressed." And he keeps one "normal-looking" piece constantly in rotation — his infamous black hoodie that's been worn so much it's starting to fall apart.

FIERCEST STYLE INFLUCENER 

Credit: Le Snob/Splash News Online

Cookie Lyon's (Taraji P. Henson) style is as bold as her confident attitude on Empire. She embraces everything from sexy, printed and sparkly looks and owns it every time. Let's face it, not just anyone could inspire their own booming fashion and beauty empire (pun intended).

Winter is coming… and Game of Thrones's Jon Snow (Kit Harington) is well prepared with his luxe, long black coats with opulent, dramatic fur trim.

BEST IDGAF STYLE

Credit: Melissa Moseley/Netflix

Grace and Frankie's Frankie (Lily Tomlin) is a hippie artist who doesn't care how many glares her preppy friend Grace (Jane Fonda) throws her way. She wears what she wants. Baggy overalls, big statement jewelry, colorful caftans and concert tees are constantly in rotation and always worn with her gorgeous free-flowing locks. Even when Grace complained about "all that hair," Frankie could care less: "I can't help it if I have memorable hair!" (Frankie, you're our ultimate spirit animal.)

BEST COLOR COORDINATOR  

Credit: Steve Sands/GC Images

Titus Andromedon (Tituss Burgess) is the most colorful character on Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt (and that's saying something, considering Kimmy's primary-color wardrobe). But his bold and bright caftan and sweater collection matches his larger-than-life personality, and makes a number of great appearances in the official music video for "Peeno Noir."
