Just in time for the return of fall TV shows, TheWrap has exclusively ranked all 47 of Big 4 broadcast's leading men by their Positive Q Scores, an industry measure of likability.  

Note: Each entry also includes a Familiarity score -- and if that is less than 20, the Q Score is considered less stable.
