** Whit Sterling has a reasonable fanbase for being a charismatic, affable, and smart mob boss towards Jeff and his close ones. Being portrayed by Creator/KirkDouglas doesn't hurt either.
** Jimmy the mute/deaf boy is beloved for being one of the sole characters to not have any dark, shady side to their personality. [[spoiler: and also for leading hitman Joe to a mountainous stream in the woods and coming to Jeff's rescue as he's about to be shot, by killing Joe.]]
