'Manifest': We see how our favorite characters fare against the not-so-liked ones on our GOOD-O-METER

Whether they are painted black, white or gray, every character in 'Manifest' has contributed to making the story what it is. Here's the lowdown on their Good-o-meter score

More than being a sci-fi with a mythical story to fall on, the Jeff Rake-directed NBC show 'Manifest' has been a fan favorite since the first episode due to its characters. Starring Josh Dallas (as Ben Stone), Athena Karkanis (as Grace), Melissa Roxburgh (as Michaela Stone), and Parveen Kaur (as Saanvi Bahl), the show follows the sudden re-appearance of Montego Air Flight 828, which went missing for almost five and a half years. Although all the passengers returned alive, none of them have aged even a day and they were now experiencing certain "callings" which seem to be leading them towards one destination. 

While the show has come to a long halt before it resumes from its fall break on January 7, fans are already rooting for the characters who they would love to see once again and those who they no longer want to be part of the show.
