I must say that in some TV series I don't really like supporting characters. In Castle , for example, I can't stand his mother and daughter: I'm bored by those scenes and I dislike those two. But the supporting characters are important. They make the story complete and believable. A writer cannot narrate a story without creating supporting characters: characters who support his protagonist. The supporting actors make the protagonist more three-dimensional.
In Castle's example, mother and daughter are his private life and his past. The humorous side It's always there, have you Phone Number Data noticed? At least in all the TV series I followed - and I'm not talking about the purely humorous ones - there was always some small comic twist. A sketch character, a joke, a funny scene. A writer should learn to insert some small humorous element into his stories. Why? Because scenes like this happen in real life; because it breaks the drama of the story by giving the reader breathing room; because it creates empathy with some characters.
The internal conflicts of the protagonists Let's always take poor Castle as an example: is he torn between two behaviors: revealing his love for the policewoman or continuing to remain silent? This conflict has been going on for a long time and creates curiosity and expectation in the viewer. A writer cannot create flat characters who are fine with anything: his protagonists must be hindered both in carrying out their mission - whatever it is - and in their personal side. The internal conflict shapes the character, it also modifies him and the character, for the story to be a story, must undergo some change.
