The fact remains she is a minor character. Just because they have a lot of screen time doesn't make them a leading character. She only gets a lot of screen time because she's the favorite character. She's just a minor character with a lot of screen time.

She started out as one, but she's not longer a minor character...Originally posted by lordofseas View Post
Minor characters are the people in a story who are not the main point of the story (for instance, not the person who the story is happening TO), but still interact with or grab the attention of those main characters. For example in the Harry Potter series of books - Argus Filch (the caretaker of Hogwarts) or the Gryffindor Ghost Nearly Headless Nick (or the barmaid Rosmerta at The Three Broomsticks, or the lady who pushes the lunch trolley on the Hogwarts Express)...I'm sure you get the point.sigpicComment

Oh you mean like Suzanne Summers or Farah Fawcett!
Okay. I get ya.
The more attention and screen time they receive means they're more of a star than the people who actually have credits of a starring role.Comment

Considering how much air time Leena's had (and I know it's mostly due to her past pregnancy) she's very much, imho, a minor character. I would imagine her name being in the opening credits has more to do with her agent's negotiating skills than how often she's on screen as a "major" character. I happen to love Leena and hope that next year she'll get more air time.Originally posted by jelgate View Post
Then she'll be more of a main/major character to me than she is a minor character.

I'm confused...isn't the "author's" favorite character by that very nature of favoritism the main character? What kind of person would write about main characters that they don't like and only give minor roles to characters that they do like to write? Isn't that the point of writing? Writing protagonists who you like? Isn't a Main Character by default one of the author's favorite characters?Originally posted by Galileo_Galilee View PostComment

She needs some substance....and yes I'll say it...she needs to grow up some. Can't play the young lost kid for much longer. Hopefully this new development will lead to that.Originally posted by MIZA View PostComment
