1. The Narrator
This was an easy choice for our number 1. No narrator has ever been more integral to the overall story, ensemble or tone of a television show. Yes weve had The Wonder Years and How I Met Your Mother, but lets face it, nobody comes close to Ron Howard. Guiding us through the entire story, the narrator interjects at times with his own opinions of various Bluth members. This is extremely important as it gives the viewer an outside perspective on the family. The Narrator is also an extremely proud professional. During the previously mentioned scandalmakers, he bemoans the shoddy style of the shows narration, calling it pure crap. Its lucky for us then that we have possibly the greatest narration to accompany this show, and as a result one of the greatest characters.
