* TokenGoodCop: After becoming Arcadia's Chief of Police, he soon learns that the police department is miserably corrupt, with local politicians deliberately interfering with investigations, officers being blatantly racist and allowing crime to happen for the right price, and the few genuinely caring cops left becoming [[JadedWashout Jaded Washouts]] as a result. Despite repeated roadblocks, though, Will never stops trying to do the right thing; [[spoiler:he eventually exposes the rampant corruption of Arcadia and forces the department to be disbanded--the far more honest and judicious county sheriff's office takes over law enforcement, with Will as Chief of Detectives]].

ByTheBookCop: [[ZigzaggedTrope Zigzagged]]--he usually deferred to playing by the rules, but also realized that the various leaders of Arcadia were [[ObstructiveBureaucrat corrupt]] and often butted heads with them, insisting on following proper police procedure rather than following their demands for leniency or special favors.
*HollywoodAtheistDoesNotLikeGuns: Despite being a cop, he shows great opposition to reckless gun usage. In one episode, it's revealed that he shot and killed a robber during a bank heist, and when Luke remarks that "Dad blew a guy away--that's so cool," Will instantly shuts him down by saying that it ''wasn't'' cool; furthermore, he lives with the fact that he took another person's life every day, and has always wondered whether or not there was a better solution that shooting.
* HollywoodAtheist: It's suggested that he lost his faith after Kevin's accident, as he can't believe in a God that would allow such a cruel thing to happen to his son.

* ToBeLawfulOrGood: Many episodes dealt with Will faced with this ethical dilemma--especially because the mayor and other politicians in the city were openly corrupt and infringed on his investigations whenever possible. Will was often forced to choose between his own sense of right and wrong or the rules that Arcadia's leaders expected him to follow.

BombThrowingAnarchist: She belongs to a group of these, most of whom dress and act exactly like her. She also occasionally spouts inflammatory rhetoric.
* BrilliantButLazy: The second episode reveals that she's exceptionally skilled at chemistry--she just chooses not to participate in class as part of her general anti-authoritarian persona.
* BruiserWithASoftCenter: Though she was genuinely tough and strong, she also had a hidden sensitive side, as indicated when it was revealed that she carries tissues with her everywhere. She also writes poetry, struggles with the cruel rumors that circulate about her, and is deeply conflicted about her alcoholic mother.
* ConspiracyTheorist: She had an opinion about every subject from capitalism to hidden surveillance, and was never shy about talking about them.
* HiddenDepths: Her libertarian views belie some of her more surprising traits. She's actually a skilled, intelligent student (she just doesn't buy into the idea of grades) and writes deeply moving poetry anonymously.
* StrawmanPolitical: Her extremist views are usually treated as a subject of scorn, and she's rarely portrayed as being in the right. It's most apparent in "State of Grace," when her opposition to the school's new metal detectors after a gun threat and championing of individual rights to privacy are trumped by Joan's (admittedly ambiguous) speech about the dangers guns pose and how she fears for her father's safety because of them.
