I protest the lack of an “Abed _and_ Troy” option. I had to choose Abed, but I do so under duress.

I wish this had been multiple choice. I voted Troy, but almost chang-ed my vote before hitting submit.

I am also a fan of Abed and Annie. Really, I like everyone but Pierce.

In other words, you’re Jeff Winger.

“Annie’s young, we try not to sexualize her.”

I voted for Annie because I think it’s hilarious that she gets sexualized at every opportunity.

I feel bad for Shirley. Not a single vote. I love Shirley!

Not that I’m any better. I voted for Troy. Because how could you not? We wouldn’t want to make him [cry](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTCL6f5YtDQ).

Yeah, they Britta’ed it.

I laugh every time the creepy-as-fuck Greendale Human Being is on screen, but The Dean wins. He’s just a Craigular Joe.

Going by the same criteria as the OP, I picked Jeff. Not because he’s the funniest (probably Dean or Troy), the most likeable (Annie), or the most refreshing (Britta), but because he’s a \* perfect\* straight man for the group. His degree of narcissism and manipulation is fantastic, and he’s a perfect hub for the rest of the group to circle around.

Without Jeff, they’re just a study group of loveable misfits. Winger makes them a _great_.

Am I the only one who hopes for a Troy & Abed spin-off?
