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!

From our Central Perk regulars to lovable guest stars, we're ranking Friends characters from best to worst. The iconic sitcom not only became a global sensation but also left an indelible mark on pop culture for generations to come. With its perfect blend of humor, relatable storylines, and unforgettable catchphrases - "We were on a break!", "How you doin'?", "Pivot!" - it's no wonder that Friends continues to hold a special place in our hearts even after all these years.The magic of Friends extends beyond its leading ensemble cast – Rachel, Ross, Monica, Chandler, Joey, and Phoebe. The show's charm is enriched by the presence of endearing supporting characters like Central Perk's manager Gunther with his unrequited love for Rachel or Chandler's ex-girlfriend Janice with her iconic laugh. Moreover, memorable cameos from celebrities such as Brad Pitt or guest appearances from stars like Paul Rudd further contributed to the show's lasting appeal. Each character delivered their own unique quirks and unforgettable moments that have stood the test of time.It's time to revisit those hilarious moments and heartwarming connections while casting your vote for who you think is truly deserving of being called "the best." As Rachel would say: "It's like Sophie's Choice!" - but we know true Friends fanatics are up for the challenge. Happy voting!

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

1990s

Throughout its ten-season run, Friends became a cultural phenomenon with its blend of humor and heartfelt storytelling, however, not every character struck the right chord with viewers. Some characters could be so frustrating that even the most dedicated fans found themselves reaching for the mute button. These annoying Friends characters, whether recurring guests or main cast members, often pushed the boundaries of patienceWhether it's Janice's unmistakable laugh echoing through Central Perk or Ross's infamous "we were on a break" saga, certain characters became synonymous with annoyance. Though intended as comic relief or plot catalysts, their antics sometimes overshadowed the charm of the beloved ensemble cast. Despite their grating tendencies, these annoying characters from Friends played pivotal roles in some of the show's most memorable episodes. Their presence added layers to storylines and provided a foil for the main six friends, even if most of the time we just wished they were the ones on a break.
