Here, I’m definitely voting based on the TV character. This will possibly not be of interest to anyone apart from myself (lol), but in the books, Laszlo is so strikingly an INFP that I wonder if Caleb Carr had an awareness of MBTI when he came up with him. He fits every aspect of the type. If you’re interested to know why I say that, I’m going to post on the page for his book counterpart. The TV series turns him into a thinker. I suspect this is done in order to set up a dichotomy between him and John: Laszlo is the rational thinker and John is the feeler, the one who’s better with people. In the books, that isn’t the case; they’re both feelers (John, in the books, is an ESFP). Sara is demonstrably the INTJ of the central group; she’s the thinker. Watching the series, I was never able to get used to seeing Laszlo find it so difficult to interact with other people, or to see him being so harsh. I am generally open to films/TV series reinterpreting fictional characters, but what bothered me about the change here was that it was based on the age-old stereotype that thinkers are smarter than feelers. Laszlo was ‘book smart’, so he wasn’t allowed to be ‘people smart’ too. Many INFPs are highly intelligent and some are very accomplished, and what I love about the character from the books is that he’s a rare INFP character who isn’t an artist of some kind - a writer, a musician, a painter, etc - and is instead an academic. He’s very arty, but he’s fundamentally an intellectual. In reality, many academics are INFPs; in fiction, few are. My other problem with this change is that I find it renders the character somewhat inconsistent; he retains some elements of the book character but is just turned into a thinker, as if this can make sense. From this perspective, the only type he could possibly be is an INTJ, as Daniel Brühl plays him on the Te-Fi axis. Yet, he’s a much less consistent INTJ than his book counterpart is a consistent INFP. All the same, this page has got it right as far as the TV character is concerned.
