Bad boys, bad boys... whatcha gonna do? Other than thrill us, that is. The best of the worst take center stage in two shows that prove how some baddies have added 'stealing our hearts' to their rap sheet.

'Hollywood's Greatest Villains' (History Channel) toasts Tinseltown's top troublemakers, including Darth Vader, Norman Bates and everyone's favorite gourmand, Hannibal Lecter, for scaring us into caring about their tortured souls.

In the TV villainy spotlight, there's Lex Luthor - one of pop culture's most enduring evildoers - shaking it up in 'Smallville' (WB Channel), where Michael Rosenbaum's ever-darkening portrayal has turned Supe's iconic comicbook foe into one of TV's most colorful characters. Guess the good guys really do finish last!
