Who is the more endearing and loveable character on the list? Tell me why you think so.

I think Alex because he is the sensitive brother.

He was the first person in the family Mallory went to when she had the problem with uncle Arthur.

Steven Keaton always seemed to the the humorous yet sincere father that you could always count on. I chose him.

I voted for Skippy Hendelman. I think there is somthing very enduring about the fact that he never gave up on his dream of going out with Mallory.

The results of the poll say that Alex was the most endearing character, but I disagree. Alex is more of a tough love kind of guy. He's sensitive to an extent, but he doesn't like to show it too much. Though I will say he is very charismatic.

I think Jennifer is the most endearing. She is very sincere with her words, as the youngest/near youngest usual are. The difference between Alex and Jennifer is that she says exactly what she means. With Alex, for the most part, you have to understand him and read between the lines.

Of course, Mallory went to him first. That's what most siblings close in age do. They have a stronger bond between them.

I voted for Steven, because he was always there for his family. If the kids had problems, he listened to them. He'd do just about anything to spend time with them, even if he came across like a big "dork." He was funny, kind-hearted and as Crimson pointed out, he was a sincere father.

Nick - It took a while for the family to warm up to him, and even if he wasn't exactly the sharpest crayon in the box, it was obvious to me that he had a very big heart and loved Mallory with all of it. He's also endearing to me because he followed his own lead, and he always made me laugh.

If we're voting on endearing, I reckon its a toss-up between Skippy or Steven, but with loveable you can't beat Alex P. Keaton!

love4mjf · 02-15-2005, 07:04 PM

Skippy! He's so helpless. tee hee

I put Mallory because I thought that she was a good sister and very caring.

Alex may be a bit outspoken at times, but he is a sensitive young man who really cares for his family. Correct me if I'm wrong, as I have yet to see the latter seasons, but a common theme seems to be that Alex carried away and gets into trouble - then, at the end of the episode, he learns from his mishap and shows his tender and sensitive side.
