Rodney McKay - Stargate Atlantis (helped)

An occasional character that started off as an arrogant foil to Samantha Carter in SG-1 really helped Atlantis find its place amongst the stars. His familiarity, overconfidence, and humor really helped Atlantis take off at full speed. And the writers actually managed to give him arcs that made him sympathetic without neutering his character.

And to think they were going to introduce a whole new scientist for the series!
