When creating a character in a series of movies or just a television series it is important to make your main characters right because the main characters will be very significant to your entire series or franchise.
You always want to make your character interesting, you want to make them good but not perfect. A character isn’t very interesting if they are just a perfect person there would be no room for relatability or development. A good example of a character done wrong is Randy Pearson in That ‘70s Show which was directed by David Trainer.

Some good examples of a character are characters like Bart Simpson from The Simpsons, or Jimmy from South Park, just to name a few.
