Click on the images above to see 17 of our favorite TV and movie characters you probably forgot were also small business owners.

You probably know a lot more small business owners than you think. Our mothers, fathers, brothers, and sisters are small business owners. They're our neighbors and friends, random acquaintance we pass every day on our way to work, and the people who takes care of our dogs when they're sick.

Not many real life small business owners achieve celebrity status, but because small business owners tend to be smart, funny, and resourceful people, almost every TV show or movie features a beloved character who owns a small business. In case you missed them, we thought we'd point a few out who deserve a little extra recognition.
