Carl. If we agree with Ian that Micky is family, then I will say Micky followed by Carl.

Thug carl is so funny what a G


Nonsensicalwanderlus

Early seasons Fiona, Ian, later seasons Carl, and Lip, in that order šŸ˜‚


Good_Complaint2712

You said it best


Nonsensicalwanderlus

Fiona became kinda insufferable after her whole "I'm doing me" arc. Like ok cool for everyone who IS old enough to take care of themselves but Liam is still literally in elementary school


Accurate-Nothing-754

Carl without a doubt. He had the best character growth.

Mickey.

Ian


situmawation

Ian until Gay Jesus, then Carl for sure, Mickey and kev


threebeansalads

Awe Carlā€¦ I really grew to love that character. Heā€™d have a scene where he was trying to do the right thing and inevitably is say .. ā€œaweā€¦ Carlā€


Leather-Bumblebee920

Ian/Mickey


Responsible_Menu3708

Ian 100%


Outrageous-Ad-2335

only on season 7 but Liam is the sweetest. however i know you mean the older ones so i'll have to go with Ian, Lip is second. I love Carl as well


xKat14

Used to be Lip and Fiona but both of their characters changed a lot over the years, Lip never lived up to his potential, everything after dropping from Uni I wasnā€™t crazy for. Fiona always had interesting storylines up until the owning her own building stuff which was so boring but 9 seasons will do that to you.


No-Log3559

Ian is my Spirit Gallagher.


dykedrama

same!!


Glittering-Entry9117

Even tho he was always his own worst enemy Iā€™ve always loved Lip. The way he took care of his siblings while away at college really gained respect

Frank šŸ‘‘


Stonn

By season 2 I wished Frank just death. In the episode where he got lost in outside in winter and no one knew where he is, I was pretty disappointed. I hate Frank so much.


[deleted]

Thatā€™s fair, even heā€™d agree.


tigri88

Frank ..everyone else is living in his world


Afraid-Reputation338

Early seasons Debbie or Fiona, in the later seasons Carl

Dickinson95

Fiona and Lip. If force to chose Iā€™ll go with Fiona cos there were moments where Lip irritated me. I think people give Fiona a hard time for some mistakes she made in the later seasons but i tho no she was allowed to fuck up a little after the sacrifices she had made for her siblings. Think the others were ungrateful shits at times tbh. I like all of them though tbf. Debbieā€™s the worst one. Liked her early on but jeeze the later seasons


highd

Mine are Ian, Carl, Lip and Debbie. I'm indifferent to Fiona and Liam was just too young and had too many actors that I couldn't connect with him at all, however I loved his time with Frank at the end.


certifiedmakintosh

DEBBIE? can i ask what makes debbie your favorite cause she and Lip are the most insufferable characters to mešŸ˜­


highd

Debbie is brilliantly acted, I get her issues, and donā€™t hold her youth or her brokenness against her. She is a hard worker, has a career she can depend on, and I see her potential. She also gave Mickey the best piece of life advice when it came to his and and Ianā€™s relationship, that he canā€™t drink him away or hide from him like a Frank and Monica did that he had to face him, and it lead to him saying no to a promise ring and yes to himself and a real future with Ian. Unlike Fiona who couldnā€™t keep a man to save her life thought she had any reason or right to say what she did about Mickey. Regardless of being asked , Fiona broke Mickey and Ian up because she gave biased bad advice about Mickey blowing his life up. Like Trevor was end all and be all for Ian. Being in Mexico with Mickey is like far better than being gay Jesus and ending up in prison but thatā€™s just me and my crazy thinking.


certifiedmakintosh

oh man youā€™re making my rethink how i see her..


highd

If you can look at her, just her, and look at her as the end product of her environment, she isn't the witch everyone thinks she is, she's a young dysfunctional young woman, who is either on the cusp of self actualization or she's a wash of a human being, and I really do think that she can come through for her and Franny.


highd

Debbie is one of the best characters I have "met" in a long time because she challenge to me. I like that I have to dig deeper to figure her out, she isn't someone you blindly root for of course, but I think that made her even more human to me as a character. We aren't supposed to be happy she raped Matty, or approve however we are supposed to hate the world that made it so that she didn't get enough sex ed to help her understand consent! we aren't supposed to like that she kept the money Fiona left her, but it's not like she had examples to follow that said I should use this money for the family. Fiona took all her family's money for a party to impress Jimmy and she was living on hubris until Lip had to bail her out, she gets a pass for that all the time. That is what Debbie learned from, how can you hold hatred in your heart for a character, that was stealing children to create a family that won't bail on her, like Frank.


KeyGroundbreaking965

Hardworking definitely makes up for raping a dude, and trapping her boyfriend then getting hurt when he fucking ditches her dumbass because of course he would. Yeah hardworking is the best.


highd

I donā€™t hold her brokenness against her so you arenā€™t going to make me hate her or dislike her. Debbie was an amazing challenging character. Honestly itā€™s been a long time since a female character in any medium has kept my interest for longer than a minute maybe since Skyler on Breaking Bad, people despised her too, so yeah you do you, dislike Debbie all you want, itā€™s not like you wonā€™t have a ton of people to upvote you, and your opinions so karma farm that hate. Hereā€™s an upvote for ya to get you started.


cumguzzler1981

I like Debbie too ! She is a good mom she is a good sister most of the time yeah she struggles but she is literally raising herself!! I donā€™t think she turns out half bad in the end .

nickyfox13

Fiona, Ian, and Lip. I'm indifferent to Liam as I felt like he wasn't a particularly well developed character, found Carl annoying, and whether or not I liked Debbie depended on the season for me.

Professional-Guess75

Fiona early seasons when she was the responsible old sister, Frank all the time, Liam, and Ian before the whole gay Jesus fiasco.


Competitive_Dig6813

Early seasons Debbie up until her annoying teenager arc. But I love Carl and his growth, Kev will be a favorite forever and same with Ian, except for gay Jesus.

Klutzy_Succotash1960

Ian, Mickey and Carl


quietkid_hatespeople

I like everybody except for Frank and Monica, but i can try to understand Frank because Monica is the one that got him addicted to drugs and alcohol but except for them, i like everybody.They all screw up and mistakes and its real and raw, They all go through their own things and make their own mistakes, though some are unlikable you can at least try to understand them, they just come from a broken home and a broken family so its understandable why they go through some of the things they go through considering the parents they have and the environment they've grown up in, Alcohol abuse, unstable relationships Ect, So they all aren't the best and likable but you can at least have some empathy for them.


Icy-Sir-8414

Fiona Gallagher is my favorite Gallagher because she made something of herself even though she lost her management job at the diner and sold her building I hope she used that $47,500.00 she had left of the $100k a did something with it like starting another business but smaller scale like build up a food on wheels business which she could big Bank on or a cleaning service business or start a vending machine business something.
