Favorite to least favorite characters


1.) Marry Cherry- No explanation needed
2.) Sam- I always thought she was insightful, interesting, badass, and flawed
3.) Harrison- He's adorable and vulnerable with sage wisdom
4.) Nicole- I have a soft spot for the bitches. Plus she did it soooo well
5.) Carmen- I always really loved her hair, plus she's inspiring
6.) Glass- Beastly yet gentle
7.) Popita- Where the hell did she go?
8.) Jane- "sam's mom" she was really sweet
9.) Sugar Daddy- I think he grew a lot over the shows run which is good to see
10.) April- Sometimes made me cringe/sometimes made me laugh
11.) Josh- Liked him at first, but he just got to dumb to function
12.) Lily- Her causes were the only cool part about her
13.) Brooke- Sometimes funny, but overall an annoying pushover
14.) Mike- What did we really learn about him... he was filler
15.) George- He just didn't fit... had there been a 3rd season he might have been higher up

The actress who played Popita was pregnant.

When I first watched Popular I was at school. So it was all about Popular (evil) Vs Unpopular (good):
1. Sam
2. Harrison
3. Lilly
4. April Tuna
5. Carmen
6. Jane
7. Sugar Daddy
8. Josh
9. Miss Glass
10. Mary Cherry
11. Nicole
12. Brooke

1. Sam - Still number 1 and agree with Mitchell_68.
2. Mary Cherry - Is a legend. The only one who had me laughing until my gut felt like exploding.
3. April Tuna - Reminds me of me...
4. Nicole - The queen of one liners and perfect comedy partnership with Mary Cherry.
5. Jane - She was nice.
6. Miss Glass - "I'm baaaaaaaaaaaaaccckkkkkkkk"
7. Josh - Yeah I didn't get why they dumbed him down in the second series.
8. Lilly - Found some of her causes a tad annoying and didn't like the way she treated Josh.
9. Sugar Daddy - sugar daddy
10. Harrison - A tool. Quick to drop his friends.
11. Carmen - Her constant whining got on my bloody nerves.
12. Brooke - boring, sly and quick to drop her friends.

Don't Like:

Lily - she went too far with her treatment of people when involved in one of her causes.
Nicole - the bitch thing got old.
April - she was incredibly annoying. I don't know if it was bad acting or intentional but either way, she sucked.

I know we're all supposed to think the popular kids are awful and the unpopular ones are cool, but I've gotta say, Carmen really annoyed me! She was always such a victim. And Nicole might have been a bitch, but she was so clever, I was pretty much on her side every time.

Im only up to watching Season 2 and so far I only watch it for Mary Cherry, Nicole and Josh. I cant stand Sam at all. She is so annoying and just buts her nose into things that dont even concern her. When she went looking for Brooke's bio-mum, that was the last straw for me. I also wish they wrote out Miss Glass. So over her too.

1. Mary Cherry.

2. Sam - I know she has flaws and I can get annoyed with her, too, but even when she is right, it's like she never really gets the gratification. If my mother pulled what Jane did with the whole getting engaged without consulting me first thing as a teenager, I would have been just as angry.

3. Brooke - Though I don't root for her as much as I do Sam, I'm not really ever that irritated with her. Sometimes she's too much of a pushover. I like Brooke and Sam both equally when they aren't fighting.

4. Nicole - Though she is a good villain, she's no Wilhemina Slater (who is my favorite TV villain - even though you know she's evil, I always want to root for her).

5. Lily, Sugar Daddy, Josh - all good side characters

6. Carmen - In the beginning, I really liked her, but toward the middle of the first season I became increasingly annoyed at her obsession with being popular.

7. Harrison - There are rare times when I'm all right with him, but most of the time he just gets on my nerves.

8. Jane and Mike - pretty low on my list... I don't see either of them really winning parent of the year (yes, I am really stuck on how they got engaged without talking about it with their kids first). But I prefer Jane to Mike.

I liked both Glass and April Tuna as side characters a lot, though, but not enough to rate them against the others.
