My favorite TV shows and movies always seem to be the ones where the main character is so-so, but is outshined by quirky, unique, outrageous supporting characters. For example, who misses Jerry from Seinfeld? Nobody. But, people do miss Kramer, Elaine and George. I love it when I find books like that. Granted, it's best if all the characters are money, but I really have a thing for great supporting characters. This list is to celebrate them!
