I am unsure about myself. Maybe I need to watch more.

I also dunno. That's a tough one.
Not really a fictional character, but always could relate to Charlie Booker.
His Newswipe, Screenwipe, etc., series blows the likes of Colbert, Stewart, etc., out of the water (which is maybe understandable as there were relatively few episodes of the former).

An amalgamation of Ben Wyatt from Parks & Recreation, and Liz Lemon from 30 Rock.

I need to go back and watch these to be sure of accurate assessment but I believe Truman Burbank from The Truman Show and Edward Scissorhands. I also need to go back and watch Quiz Show, actually, want to, it's up there on my all time favorites, but there are aspects of Charles Van Doren's relationship with Mark Van Doren that remind me of me and my Dad.

When I was a kid I went through this phase for a while where I identified very strongly with Cyclops from the X-Men.
I was the oldest sibling, and I related to Cyclops because the Professor always put him in charge of the other X-Men because he was most mature, responsible one--but he never got any praise or appreciation for this because everybody else was always paying more attention to Wolverine's temper tantrums.

Ben Wyatt from Parks and Recreation.
Re: With which TV/movie character do you most relate?
Me too. Maybe not quite so much now, but I related to him strongly in my 20s. I still do some. I can't think of a character that I currently strongly relate to.
I guess the character I found myself relating to most recently was Quentin Coldwater from The Magicians.

I never related to anyone on TV that I can recall, but my sisters say I'm just like Kramer from Seinfeld. Um, minus the slapstick.

That one lady in the turgid lesbian drama with the weird sex scene and where the lead characters can't be together because one dies, or society is irredeemably cruel, or both.
Or Pollyanna, the girl whose irrepressible optimism and encouragement of others actually meaningfully improves several people's lives but somehow her name ends up used to refer to hopelessly naive dorks who hope for the best and do nothing to actually solve problems.
