Favorite Character On TV Right Now - Sue From 'The Middle'

"(Eden Sher) as Sue Sue Heck, socially awkward early-teen middle daughter of Frankie and Mike. She seems to fail at everything she tries out for, but her optimism and determination keep her trying again and again. Like many children of middle school age, she wears braces on her teeth. Her first and middle name is "Sue," as it was mistakenly written down twice on her birth certificate."(Wiki)

I love the way that she fails so spectacularly but always rises to her feet with a smile on her face just so she can fail again. You never see characters like this on TV. Usually the girls are beautiful hyper-sexual overachievers. They are never the butt of the joke and that is what makes Sue so terrific. Even when she DOES succeed and becomes a member of the track and field team, she is not very good at that either. However, to hear her speak of her accomplishments, you would think she was a gold medalist because in her mind, she is one.
