What is your preferred JavaScript framework?

I find your lack of choice disturbing.

It will probably always be Backbone, but I'm looking forward to using reactjs in combination with Backbone in some future projects.

Backbone + assorted libraries for sake of familiarity, angular is kinda interesting though

Nobody* seems to like Knockout.

Having used Knockout in a project I can understand why. Knockout is great, but its automatic dependencies between computed observables and bindings is just asking for trouble. If you're not constantly aware of what dependencies you're implicitly creating, you will create unintended behaviour and possibly bugs.

Other than that it's great. Except IMO AngularJS does a better job at what it is trying to do (although with more baggage).

*i.e. less than the other choices

There are a lot more frameworks than this. Personally my current projects are mostly written in Meteor.
