Surprise, surprise I tend to find Spencer & Sam the funniest characters, followed by Carly, and then Freddie. I felt Carly's absence, like I said, but it wasn't really in terms of comedy (Though Miranda honestly has improved leaps and bounds this season in her delivery. She was one of the funniest parts of the seddie arc. I bright spot in all the "romantic drama".) Anyways, it was more in terms of balance.

As far as looking at the characters individually and not relating it to seddie/creddie, in that case, it all comes back to the fact that how I view and understand Sam is different from you. I see redeeming qualities in her, despite the times she crosses lines. I find her humorous and easily the most interesting character on the show. I like her character, flaws and all, because they make her interesting.

Which I think was Dan's intention with Sam...to make her a source of brash humor and interest. Sam is, if I'm not mistaken, Dan's favorite character and he certainly didn't give her the personality he did to make people dislike her. You either find entertainment in her personality or you don't. And I don't think having either outlook is right or wrong. It's personal taste.
