Many Netflix characters have come and gone over the years. Just which are the best ones? Here are the 15 best Netflix Original characters ever, ranked.

Over the years we’ve met a variety of characters through Netflix shows. Some have been good and loved right away and others have taken their time to show us how much we should adore them. Then, of course, there are others who remain the most hated characters in the world.

After looking at the 15 most hated Netflix Original characters, it’s time to turn our attention to those we love the most. There are just so many on this list, whether you’re looking for historical fiction, sci-fi or fantasy, or even a dramedy to make you laugh and cry at the same time.

Not all the fan-favorite characters are good ones. Evil characters can be loved if they have good character development, interesting backstories, and something to fight for. Nor are all the characters on this list the ones you’re supposed to root for throughout the series — they’re not all the characters that will introduce you into a story or a world.

The main characters of a series can sometimes end up being the most hated. We just have to look at Piper in Orange Is the New Black. While she’s whiny and selfish, there are other inmates who have proven to be the type of women you can trust — but don’t mess with them! However, there are some main characters that have been put through the wringer and you can’t help but see them succeed.

With all that in mind, it’s time to break down the top 15 fan-favorite characters. Whether you love One Day at a TimeGrace and Frankie, or even the prematurely canceled Everything Sucks!, there is going to be a character you adore on this list.
