Separating the best from the rest because not all best friends are equal.
Miranda was the worst of the Disney Channel BFFs. She was petty and insecure and always looking to fight with Lizzie. The most memorable thing about her was that she spent the last 6 episodes of the show and The Lizzie McGuire Movie visiting her family in Mexico City.
Disney
I never really liked Lilly because she spent half the series being jealous of Miley Stewart's Hannah Montana fame and when she was finally over that, she was fighting Miley over the silliest things.
Disney
I never really saw much in Tawny. Sure, I thought she was cool but she didn't add much to the overall show, even dating Louis couldn't help.
Disney
Eddie was a fun person for Raven to hang around with but I never got the sense that he contributed much to the show. He was a social climber who was even more materialistic than Raven and often egged her bad behavior on.

Keep the change, you filthy animal.

Were you a kid in the ’80s? Then chances are you spent some long hours daydreaming about having one of these sweet pets for your very own.
Benji was warming hearts and solving crimes since the '70s, but he kept it going strong through the age of MTV and leg warmers! His movies Oh Heavenly Dog and Benji The Hunted, and the TV show Benji, Zax, and the Alien Prince made us mad for this super pooch.

Home for the Holidays was directed by Jodie Foster, who has gone on to have a directing career as equally successful as her acting career. Here's what her cast looks like now, nineteen years after we first celebrated Thanksgiving with the Larsons.

His name is Dawson Leery, he makes us often weary.
What does that even mean?
The WB
Because he insisted on going to a jazz club to get his drink on.
The WB
Gee, Dawson, thanks for taking us through Chicago to get to your point, which is still unclear.
The WB
MOVE ON, MAN. Jen doesn't like you. You haven't earned her like because you act like this.

THE CITY OF TOWNSVILLE…is a very thought-provoking place.

Not the 'dirt' one though, obviously.

Sitting at the back of the coach was the most important thing that could ever happen.

Gossip Girl was always at its best when the feathers were flying.

Writers: Robert Hull & Joshua Safran
Director: Mark Piznarski
As hot as Broadway actor Aaron Tveit is, the character of Tripp Vanderbilt was always a bit of a dud and his affair with Serena was even worse. Paired with the never ending fighting between Jenny and Eric while they pretend they're on the best of terms for their families at Thanksgiving, this rather weak episode probably shouldn't be the first thing you Netflix.

Writer: Joshua Safran
Director: Jean de Segonzac
Nate is a character that had very little to do after the second season, probably because his father as a Bernie Madoff type of villian usually fell flat. But the episode is worth it for Jenny and Blair defanging for a brief moment to commiserate over their parent drama and Vanessa embracing her inner bitch (as an invited guest at the Humphreys' Thanksgiving dinner, no less) by stealing a letter sent to Jenny from Nate.

Dan and Serena throw their first Thanksgiving together as a couple, but he's managed to piss off all of his friends (as usual), so I doubt anyone is attending of their dinners in the future. Plus, any episode where Dan Humphrey (mere episodes from the reveal he's the sociopath masquerading as Gossip Girl) gets punched in the face is worth its weight in gold.
