My Favorite Characters in My Favorite TV Series

Did I ever tell you how bad I love those American soap operas? Yeah I'm kinda TV Series freak. I am a fan of some 1990's and 2000's series such as 'One Tree Hill', 'Popular', 'Ugly Betty', 'Grey's Anatomy', etc. But my favorite series of all time is 'Desperate Housewives'. I love the characters, the plot, the mood, the dialogues, everything in that serial!

So, in my favorites series, I have some characters those I really like, you can even say I'm a little bit obsessed. Maybe because they are smart, or tricky, or sweet, charming, funny, inspiring, or maybe just physically hot, attractive, or maybe I like their style. Usually when I become a fan of one character, I become a fan of the actor too.

And these are those characters:

'Desperate Housewives'
Gabriel Solis (Eva Longoria Parker)

My favorite character of all time, from my favorite serial of all time. Gabriel 'Gaby' Solis is the youngest and the hottest of all four housewives in 'Desperate Housewives'.

Tom Scavo (Doug Savant)


Anyway, I love both Gaby-Carlos and Lynette-Tom couples. They both sweet in different way.


'Grey's Anatomy'
Isobel 'Izzie' Stevens (Katherine Heigl)


Mark Sloan (Eric Dane)


Alex Karev (Justin Chambers)



'Supernatural'
Dean Winchester (Jensen Ackles)


Well, in this serial, we either like Dean or Sam, or both. There are only Dean and Sam. The rest are just the angels and demons. Yeah you may put Castiel on the hot guys list. But still, if you are fans of Supernatural, you must idolize one of the Winchesters.


'Glee'
Quinn Fabray (Dianna Agron)


 Noah Puckerman (Mark Salling)


Kurt Hummel (Chris Colfer)



'Ugly Betty'
Wilhelmina Slater (Vanessa Williams)


Marc (Michael Urie)



'Gossip Girl'
Blair Waldorf (Leighton Meester)



'Lipstick Jungle'
Nico Reilly (Kim Raver)



'One Tree Hill'
Peyton Sawyer (Hillarie Burton)



'Charmed'
Phoebe Halliwel (Alyssa Milano)



'Prison Break'
Michael Scofield (Wentworth Miller)


Lincoln Burrows (Dominic Purcell)


'Heroes'
Isaac Mendez (Santiago Cabrera)


Peter Petrelli (Milo Ventimiglia)



'Gilmore Girls'
Jess Mariano (Milo Ventimiglia)



'Buffy the Vampire Slayer' and 'Angel'
Cordelia Chase (Charisma Carpenter)

Cordelia is Buffy's rival at school. Before finding herself as a vampire slayer, Buffy was a popular girl and even also a captain in cheerleaders team. When Buffy was already a vampire slayer, she moved to new school or something (I forgot), so that she's no longer popular. Cordelia Chase is the popular girl at school.
Her character is so much like Gaby Solis in 'Desperate Housewives' or Brooke Davis in 'One Tree Hill': a spoiled brat with super rich parents/husband, that can't do anything when all the money gone.

Angel (David Boreanaz)

This is the lots better, sexier, hotter vampire than that creepy Edward Cullen. Angel is a character of a vampire that is trying so hard to remove his dark past. He is a good vampire, and he's ironically boyfriend of Buffy the vampire slayer.

'Buffy the Vampire Slayer' was a movie that was made as TV series, and then there was the split of the series, 'Angel'. Both characters above were in both of those series.


'Dawson's Creek'
This is like the most popular, most booming TV series on 1990's. The story was just about life of some teenagers in a small town. I can say 'One Tree Hill' is a lot like 'Dawson's Creek' (both took places in North Carolina). I watched 'Dawson's Creek' when I was on my first year in Junior High, and I watched 'One Tree Hill' from the end of my High School years until the beginning of my college years. So, 'Dawson's Creek' maybe like 5 or 6 years older than 'One Tree Hill'.

I used to be a fan of 'Dawson's Creek'. But now I totally forget what was so good about it. But when I was a fan of 'Dawson's Creek', these are my favorite characters.

Joey Potter (Katie Holmes)

This sweet, smart, multi-talented valeditorian is favorite of most 'Dawson's Creek' fans. There were 4 main characters in the earlier seasons: Dawson of course, Joey, Jen, and Pacey. Both of the main male characters fell in love with Joey and ruin their friendship for her.

Pacey Witter (Joshua Jackson)

I love Joshua Jackson! Even now that I'm writing this post and watching this picture of him... oh, he's so gorgeous... and I'm so proud that he was born on June 11 just like me.
The character of Pacey Witter is a childish, funny, yet charming boy. Choosing between pacey and the other male character, Dawson, most women would go for Pacey. Including me.


'Popular'
This is a 1990's soap opera about two groups of high school teenagers those compete each other. The popular gang were all blond: Brooke McQueen, Nicole Julian, and Mary Cherry. The nerds were all brunette: Sam McPherson, Lily Esposito, Carmen Ferrera. For those born after 1990, 'Popular' was the 1990's version of 'Glee'. It's all about the popular vs the freaks. The main character were Brooke and Sam. So, mostly 'Popular' fans and followers would pick between Brooke and Sam. Well, from these characters below you could tell which side I choose.

Nicole Julian (Tammy Lynn Michaels)

I really love Nicole Julian character. She's smart, cruel, tricky, and super backstabbing. I also always love her style and hairstyle.

Brooke McQueen (Leslie Bibb)

Maybe I love Brooke McQueen character for the same reason why I love 'Glee' Quinn Fabray character.
The nowadays famous Quinn Fabray character from 'Glee' reminds me so much of Brooke McQueen from 'Popular'. They both blond, pretty, and popular. They both have facial expression as sweet as angels, but very cruel inside. Cruel, but not tricky as their sidekicks (Santana in 'Glee' and Nicole Julian in 'Popular'). Even the 'Glee' Cherios trio is a lot like the 'Popular' blond trio. Brooke and Quinn are the insecure yet fragile queen-bee, Nicole and Santana are the tricky backstabbing b***hes, and Mary Cherry and Brittany are the typical dumb blondes.


'Smalville'
Lana Lang (Kristin Kreuk)

I'm not really a big fan of 'Smallville'. I don't really watch it after missing 2 or 3 episodes in its season 1. But I really like Lana Lang's character just because I think Kristin Kreuk is extremely pretty. I sometimes watched the series just to see Kristin Kreuk. The character of Lana Lang is nice, sweet, and super feminine. But I don't really think it's special. So, for this one, it's totally just the face.


Okay, that's all.

No, I don't have favorite characters in 'Friends' or any other comedy series. I'm not a fan of any comedy. And no, I'm not a fan of 'Sex and the City'. I even wonder what is so good about that serial? The women are old and ugly, the theme sucks, and... well I really don't have any idea of why people love it.
