“Rolling Stone” has put together a list of ‘The 40 Greatest TV Villains of All Time.’

They stuck with true adversarial villains, and didn’t include ‘antiheroes’ . . . like Don Draper from “Mad Men”, Walter White from “Breaking Bad”, and Tony Soprano from “The Sopranos”, because they’re central figures “who drive their own stories.”

Here’s the Top 20:

1. Ben Linus from “Lost”. He was played by Michael Emerson.

2. Marlo Stanfield from “The Wire” . . . played by Jamie Hector.

3. Livia Soprano from “The Sopranos” . . . was played by Nancy Marchand.

4. Joffrey Baratheon from “Game of Thrones” . . . played by Jack Gleeson.

5. Bob from “Twin Peaks” . . . played by Frank Silva.

6. Al Swearengen from “Deadwood” . . . played by Ian McShane.

7. Gus Fring from “Breaking Bad” . . . played by Giancarlo Esposito.

8. Montgomery Burns from “The Simpsons” . . . voiced by Harry Shearer.
