Could not stand Levitt

Leavitt was annoying as hell, but even he wasn't as lame as Dorsey who I think was in 3, maybe 4, episodes.

So hard to choose! I liked all of them, and they all depended on each other so much. But, if pressed:

Dietrich and Harris (they play off each other so well) and Yemana, all in first place.
Wojo - so many stories depended on him.
Fish
Chano - only because he wasn't there as long as most of the others
Levitt - but I liked Levitt and felt for him.

Nobody liked Det. Batista? Hardly saw her but I liked her. My number one was Deitrich, though

Yeah--Deitrich was my fave. Yemana next.
I'm a sucker for deadpan humor.
