Characters you like...

It's hard to know where this assessment goes (in the Like or Hate thread) but I'm deciding to put it here: For those who like Burt, but maybe think he's become kinda jerky since he took charge....you should go back and give a listen to Burt. He's actually been consistently this jerky but the difference is that everyone he was talking to gave him a pass on it. He's been saying and doing annoying douchy stuff since we meet him, but no one called him on it until he was at odds with Michael and crew. Just sayin'....

Another example of perspective perspective perspective!

I think it's great that this thread has almost every character listed as a favourite for someone. Just shows what a great cast We're Alive has.

my favorite is Saul, close second is burt. datu is on my last nerve. i never cared much in the first place but now....yeeesh.

Pete is the best! ok maybe thats cuz he is greg miller. apart from that saul was awesome. (did i spell that right?) but he hasnt been on in a while, due to that whole almost being dead thing. hopefully he makes is way back at some point...

I actually like Datu. He's not my favorite, but he's still an awesome support. It might help that I relate to him with the job situation. He was working just to send money to his family. I did that for almost a year. Living alone just to have everything you're doing going to help someone you can't even see. It's rough.

Micheal. I can entirely relate to him. Leadership type, but gets totally get pissed off at the group when they complained about his leadership and just ends up handing the job over to someone else. I would totally do the same thing. I also really like the way Micheal takes no bs, like in 19-2 when he tells off Marcus and totally calls him on his military "experience". Oh and of course Saul comes in a close second, but come on who doesn't love him?

Michael is one of those "Has Greatness Thrust Upon Them," Types. Everyone looks up to his magnetic personality, he's a natural anchor for those who surround him.

Whereas, Saul is the "Was Born Great," Kind.

my favorite character has to be Burt but kolani for me has to go the guy is far to frustrating to be doing any good lol however Datu is awsome that time he spent in the prison like area showed the audience how determind yet awsome he is and u really feel for him if somthing goes wrong

My favorite was Burt, but that was because he was exceedingly funny in the most stressful situations without seeming to make light of it. Now with his position of authority, he seems to have lost his sense of humor. I want the old Burt back!

I also like Scratch. I know we're supposed to hate her, but I get the feeling her wickedness is just a survival skill. Like when she first told her brother she didn't want to lie (before qualifying with "to him"), I think that was authentic ethics seeping through her persona.

I really don't have a true favorite I love them all. But if I had to pick I would pick Michael as my favorite character. He is well rounded in his development he isn't a superman he is a normal man prone to mistakes. He does the best he can with what he has. I think he has shown a great deal of good personal growth in recent chapters. He is also fiercely brave. I think the asshole quality he shows alot is fear of losing people he loves. He loves the people in the tower.
My second favorite is Saul. he's lovable. Everyone knows a Saul. Burt reminds me of my father.
