Band of Brothers Question

OMG!!!!!!I never thought that so many people liked band of brothers!!!!Any way who is your favorite person and why?????

*
This series is so good because it brings out the best in most of the characters, whether in combat or not, they are always looking out for one another and trying to do their best in the worst conditions. Even characters who only appear for a single episode are memorable such as Blithe and Miller. And the emotional toll the loss of life takes on Buck and Nixon is tragic in scale. Bull Randleman shows as much quiet leadership and care for his men as Winters and he is not the only NCO who shines. In short, there are so many great characters here, that it's easier to single out the ones I don't like: Sobel and Roy Cobb (Craig Heaney) who are mean-spirited bullies. In a master stroke of characterisation, Cobb shows what a mean-spirited bully he is twice: in the Replacements episode, he bullies Miller into taking off the regimental commendation for D-Day because Miller did not "earn" it although Cobb himself was wounded and never jumped(but wears the commendation anyway). In the Last Patrol, Cobb is similarly mean to Webb because he missed Bastogne even after Webb tries to make up for this by getting Leibgott and Malarkey taken off the patrol. Fortunately, the other men rally support Webb. All in all, great character development achieved so economically.

My favorite character is Joe Toye. First, because it's Kirk Acevedo and his character seems to be always angry and I find this funny.
Then I love him because he lost a leg, I know this can be weird to said that, but it was a very sad moment.
But I must say I love Winters, Speirs for their courage, Nixon (for his episode 9)... This question it's too complicated for me I love them all !!!

(sorry if my english is bad but i'm french...)

I gotta say Winters. The man shows so much courage and leadership. He really does care for his men and i like that. Every1 needs someone to look up to. He doesn't drink or smoke but still gets past everything war has given him and i have great respect 4 that. He shows people that you don't have to drink and smoke to be great.

Plus his friendship with Nix is something amazing. It's something that i think mot of us long for. They bring to our eyes how much we need our friends.

well...BILL GUANERE, loved him from the start. He's such a character, makes everything a joke, takes nothing too serious. Like when him and joe toye both lost there legs, he told Toye that he was gonna beat him bak to the states. LOVE HIM. But i also just love Ronald Speirs beacause he's such a hero. when he ran over to het I company, True soldier in my eyes. And you gotta love Richard Winters. He's just such a man. If it wasn;t for him... Alot more men of easy company would have died. I dont Hate any men of easy company, i love them all George Luz, Flyed Talbert, Edward Tipper, Joe Toye, Joeseph Leibgott, Bull Randlemen, Edward Babe Heffron, Eugene Roe. Skip Muck... LOVE <3

Very difficult for me to choose just one, but I can list my 5 favourites: (in no real order):

- C. Carwood Lipton - Firstly, Donnie Wahlberg played him amazingly. Second, he was such a humble hero, doing things not for recognition but to help others.

- Eugene 'Doc' Roe - Shane played Doc so well, showing how to be a medic you have to be everywhere and remain strong, but then showing (in Bastogne) how the war does get to even the strongest of us. Plus, I may or may not have a HUGE soft spot for that Cajun accent...

- Richard 'Dick' Winters - I'm pretty sure I don't need a reason for this choice... What a hero...

- Warren 'Skip' Muck - Richard was great as Skip but also the character (who was only 21/22) portrayed just how truly young and innocent the men really were, particularly him and Malarkey.

- George Luz - Rick is a great actor and this character added the comedic elements to the series, without going overboard.

He doesn't get many lines, but I love Shifty Powers. I bought all the autobiographies I could find by the Easy Company men, and his sounded just as gentle and calm and reasonable as he comes across on the screen, as played by Peter Youngblood Hills. The passages in his book where he describes his awe and joy and overwhelming love at the first sight of each of his children as newborns are so sweet! You understand after reading about him learning to shoot as a boy from a poor mountain family, where he was providing food for them all, how such a gentle man could become such a superb sniper. He didn't really hate the Germans, but he felt that stopping their effort to take over Europe was essential, and he made use of his skill to keep his comrades safer. Then he went home and, after a brief battle with agoraphobia, where he could leave his parents' house and start to drive in to the nearby town but always had to stop and turn back part way, he settled down to being his usual kind, gentle, unassuming self with a family he loved.
