For context, a character that was super annoying in a TV show that was solid overall.

Warren Ferguson - The Andy Griffith Show

Warren Ferguson - The Andy Griffith Show
YES!

As far as cartoons go,Scrappy Doo on Scooby-Doo.

Terri Three is Company

John Burns Taxi

Carla on Cheers. A sadistic, miserable human being and the audience is supposed to see her as funny and be charmed by her "humor."

sam royer one day at a time words cant express enough how much i dislike this loser jerk

:angryfireDr Smith :angryfire on Lost in Space. :angryfire

Interesting!

What is it about him that rubbed you the wrong way? :wave:

:angryfireDr Smith :angryfire on Lost in Space. :angryfire

Are you serious? :confused: The show wouldn't be worth watching without him.

Greg House on House, even though he's the main character. What a miserable excuse for a human being.

Michel on Gilmore Girls, I don't understand why Lorelei kept him around. He was nothing but arrogant, pompous, and condescending to everybody.

Ed.

Rose Nylund - The Golden Girls
Chachi - Happy Days

Agreed. My guess is that without Dr. Smith, the show wouldn't have made it beyond one season, if that.

The woman who Martin eventually married on "Frasier"...good actress, but the character was too young for Martin and totally wrong for the show.

B.J. Hunnicutt on MASH...the least funny character ever on a comedy.

Wendie Malick was funny as Hell on Hot In Cleveland but I couldn't stand her as Martin Crane's girlfriend/wife. She was supposed to be a singer but couldn't carry a tune and had a hideous wig and no chemistry with John Mahoney.

Marsha Mason on the other hand was excellent as his earthy girlfriend Sherry and had loads of chemistry with him.

I wonder why they didn't just bring her back for him. :confused:

Rose Tyler on Doctor Who
Debra Romano on Everybody Loves Raymond
Jackie on Roseanne

Michel was all that and he didn't really care. That's what so good about him. You got to admit if Celine Dion walked through the doors at the Dragonfly he'd be sweet as pie...:lol: :lol:

Larry Mondello on Leave It to Beaver
Andy on Family Ties
Ricky on The Partridge Family

I am surprised with all of the hours I spent watching TV none springs easily to my mind.

The only one I can think of is one I haven't seen in 20 years. The Farrah Forke character from WINGS whatever her name was. :confused:

Alex Lambert

Kiristie Alleys character on Cheers

Alex Lambert

Yes, thanks! :wave:

A perfect match of a bad character and a bad actor.


Yes, for sure.

I can name two: Paul Falsone and Terri Stivers, both from Homicide: Life on the Street. They did practically nothing but destroy the good character of Mike Kellerman, whom unlike the other two, was actually well loved by the fanbase.

Absolutely agree! Always thought that Falsone was a real Mary Sue; one of those characters that is just forced down your throat to the extent they had to diminish other characters in order to make him look "tough" and "good".

Really loathed that character.

I couldn't agree more. The two were very clearly a byproduct of NBC Entertainment president Warren Littlefield forcing the producers of Homicide: Life on the Street to make the series more mainstream in hopes of boosting ratings, all because he was too gosh darn stubborn to admit he made a mistake in scheduling the show on Friday nights as opposed to Thursday nights, which he would have initially done, had Warner Bros. Television president Leslie Moonves not stuck his big nose in the affair by demanding that Littlefield place his show, ER, in the Thursday slot instead. I swear, to this day, I still despise Littlefield as well as Moonves and his cronies at CBS Corporation for this very reason.

I'm sure no one at NBC regrets putting ER on Thursdays instead of Homicide. I doubt it would have done that well there...

I'm sure that ER would have been just as competitive on other nights. When you program for a network, the ideal is to try to give every program a fair shot.

What is it about him that rubbed you the wrong way? :wave:i did not like the fact that he was so smug and seemed to think that he was so much better than everyone else even mark and ann

the librarian on Newhart- the sexual inuendo was vastly increased in the episodes she appeared in.

Kiristie Alleys character on Cheers

I totally agree. I always considered her a Type A neurotic crybaby.

Actually, the term you were looking for was "Marty Stu", "Mary Sue" is for women.

I beg your forgiveness.:D

Urkel on Family Matters
Cody on Step by Step
Kimmy on Full House

Basically, the "wacky neighbor" character on any Miller-Boyett sitcom.

Ricky on the Partridge Family

i did not like the fact that he was so smug and seemed to think that he was so much better than everyone else even mark and ann

He did have a smug vibe sometimes for sure. Especially with Schneider. But I liked the way he stood up to Ann when she got cranky and overly analytical about everything.

I was a casual watcher of House and hated Dr. House. He was a miserable bastard, was rude and obnoxious to his peers and underlings, was rude to his patients, was so arrogant he thought he knew better than anyone else, and did not pull punches on his true feelings on anyone, including children. He basically stole and slept with another man's wife shamelessly. He wasnt a classic grump jerk with a heart of gold inside. He was a bastard and did not care if you liked him or not.

But, you were supposed to dislike him. What I did like about this series was that it was real in that there were no bad or good people. There wasnt a wonderful, angelic, loving and caring person. People did their jobs, had their troubles, did what they had to do. The Sopranos were the same way, especially the non mafia or civilian people they came into contact with. Remember when Feech Lemanna's boys stole a bunch of luxury cars from a wedding and cracked the skull of the parking attendent? When the people found out and went to the parking lot, all they cared about was their missing car they cannot replace, not for the poor guy laying there bleeding. Same thing.

Emmett, the fix-it guy on The Andy Griffith Show. Awful.

One Series, Little House on the Prairie

One Character, :rolleyes: Nellie Oleson. :cuckoo

I beg your forgiveness.:D

All is forgiven. Just letting you know.

Yeah, I'm not too keen on the "wacky neighbor" trope, either, especially when said neighbor causes egregious misfortune on the poor lead character. I feel that if a lead character has to suffer such egregious amounts of misfortune, it should only come as a result of his or her own undoing.

Bull - Night Court

I just find him to be very annoying sometimes.
