On-screen text
Side characters that were WAY funnier than the main character.
Megan- Drake and Josh
She was hilarious and was always 2 steps ahead of them.
Fletcher- ANT Farm
He was so awkward and relatable. I never felt like he was trying too hard to be something he wasn't. And it worked so well.
Max-Wizards of Waverly Place
He was so ditzy that he was lowkey smart. They made him out to be the dumb sibling but I found him to be my favorite.
Spencer- ICarly
If I had an older brother I'd want it to be Spencer. Carly was boring compared to him.
Milton- Kickin It
The logical smart one who has many funny one liners.
Gabe-Good Luck Charlie
He wasn't the "dumb sibling" he was always outsmarting everyone and had a wit to him that just made you love him.
I also totally understood his middle child syndrome
Jackson-Hannah Montana
Jackson deserved his own show. In my mind he made the family and the show better just by being who he was. He was such an iconic character.
