TV Character

Scrappy Doo

After spending so very many hours watching a TV show, we form strong attachments - and revulsions - to certain characters. Let's rank 'em.

TV Characters We Love & Hate

Watchworthy

Television is fun, but some TV characters are just the worst. For every beloved character on TV, whether it be Mary Tyler Moore of The Mary Tyler Moore Show or everyone's favorite resident of the Seven Kingdoms, Tyrion Lannister, there's an equally and adamantly <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/most-deserved-tv-villain-ends/jack-rogers">disliked character</a> on the tube (hi, Joffrey and Cousin Oliver!) This list ranks the worst of the worst, including all the most terrible and hated TV characters of all time.Yes, it's true that not everyone is going to like every character on a show, just as not everyone will like every person in real life. However, some characters are so universally detested that no one bats an eye to learn they're near the top of this list of awful TV characters.&nbsp;Have you ever stopped watching a show simply because one character annoyed you so much? This is a list about those guys and gals.The curated collection includes some of the most vile TV characters. They aren't necessarily vile because they are bad or evil, but simply because every time they come on the screen, you wish they'd just go away. &nbsp;In other words, they're not characters you "love to hate" - they're unpopular, disliked, and even annoying characters you just absolutely can't stand.Vote up the <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/the-most-annoying-tv-and-film-characters-ever?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">worst characters</a> in all of television history you dislike the most!

&quot;Who is the single most annoying children&rsquo;s television character of all time?&quot; -&nbsp;u/<a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/bws6sp/who_is_the_single_most_annoying_childrens/" target="_blank">HoodooSquad</a>

A seemingly&nbsp;innocent question that inspired&nbsp;incredibly brutal (and hilarious) answers from Redditors who were finally given the opportunity to vent.

Over on <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/bws6sp/who_is_the_single_most_annoying_childrens/?sort=top" target="_blank">Reddit</a>, people shared the characters from children&#39;s TV shows that they found the most annoying, and honestly, things got pretty ugly. Characters such as Cupcake from&nbsp;Puppy Dog Pals,&nbsp;Caillou, even DW from&nbsp;Arthur&nbsp;were not safe from the savage responses of annoyed TV watchers. Vote up the kids&#39; TV characters you find super annoying.&nbsp;

Saturday morning cartoons. The staple of my childhood. But there was a stink in the flower field... and these characters were responsible. Even as a kid, they made my teeth clench.

There&rsquo;s almost always that one character - you know, the one that makes you cringe or scream at your television set, &ldquo;Go away!&rdquo; Here are 15 terrible characters who ruined good shows.

A chain is only as strong as its weakest link. These sometimes annoying, sometimes self-absorbed, sometimes irrelevant, almost always <a href="/list/current-tv-characters-we-love-to-hate/anncasano" target="_blank">awful characters</a> on great TV shows were perhaps <a href="/list/bad-seasons-of-good-tv-shows/tamar-altebarmakian" target="_blank">not horrible enough</a> to make you stop watching a program. However, they could be bad enough to get on your last nerve.

Base-breaking characters aren&#39;t limited to guest stars or the supporting cast. Just as often, it&#39;s the <a href="/list/shows-where-the-main-character-is-the-worst/josh-plainse" target="_blank">main characters who are the worst</a>. Is&nbsp;Hannah from Girls the most self-absorbed person in the history of television? Was Skyler from Breaking Bad the most hated? Any way you slice it, Screech&#39;s schtick on Saved By&nbsp;The Bell grew so tiresome that he has to be considered one of the <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/most-hated-tv-characters/matthewcoleweiss?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">worst TV characters</a> ever.

Vote on these shows ruined by crappy characters.&nbsp;Maybe some of these guys and gals don&rsquo;t deserve the dis;&nbsp;perhaps they were simply just misunderstood?

Regrettable Characters Who (Nearly) Ruined Good TV Shows

15 Regrettable Characters Who Ruined Good TV Shows

Ann Casano

Frequently, our favorite franchises reach a point of saturation; maybe the concept is running out of juice, or the story arc is essentially completed. Sometimes, though, one character really is the problem, and a thriving saga gets derailed by bad writing or a weak performance.There are other instances where a character that comes along just embodies all that has worn out about the franchise, and we're left feeling as though the character is, fairly or not, intrinsically linked to the issues that sent one of our favorite franchises down the drain. Try not to be traumatized again as we look back at the characters who aided and abetted in the downfall of otherwise great franchises.&nbsp;

These days, every show seems to have the &quot;average man/woman&quot; character,&nbsp;the one whose sole purpose is to&nbsp;balance&nbsp;out all the craziness carried out&nbsp;by the other characters in each episode.&nbsp;Oftentimes, though, this person can come across as&nbsp;so insanely dull or annoying that the show&nbsp;would probably be better off without them.People often point to Skyler&nbsp;from Breaking Bad&nbsp;as a prime example, as she&nbsp;comes across as a total downer, even if her true motivations are to keep her family safe and intact. There's also a&nbsp;case to be made for&nbsp;a character who replaces&nbsp;another beloved cast member, and just can't quite live up to people's expectations (something that happens far too often).It's hard to provide enough background and intrigue to individual characters, especially when they're generally seen as a single piece of an ensemble. For whatever reason, these characters became&nbsp;a nuisance to the audience, and are seen as inconsequential additions to already full and endearing casts. This has nothing to do with their individual behavior, but instead focuses on the fact they offer nothing of real value to the show as a whole.Vote up the characters you wish were excluded from your favorite programs, and vote down those you believe were irreplaceable.&nbsp;
