The show has so many hidden things in it both past, present, and future it makes me watch each episode over 3 times. I don't know if I have a favorite character but one of the best parts of the show for me is the nicknames Sawyer gives everyone...too dang funny. So what's your favorite part of the show?
Here's some:
