Dorothy Jane, because she was a deep thinker. Plus, Olivia Burnette was very pretty and I always had a crush on her.

Dorthy Jane was always my favorite. The reason? She just always older and had a crush on the older boy next door? Now, how many of us haven't experienced that?

Dorothy Jane.

The show was basically about her. Loved her talks to the man in the moon.

Dorothy Jane

She was wise beyond her years but she still maintained her childhood innocence. She's probably one of my all-time favorite TV characters. It's a shame this show didn't last longer.
