Default TV Character that you feel was Overrated?

I think Fonzie was very overrated. I never understood the hype. I honestly think Vinny Barbarino was the real cool guy.

Definitely Fonzie.

Most of the characters on Friends - well the whole show is overrated (even though i like it).

Homer Simpson

I love the show, but there are SO many better characters on it than him.

Solomon.... you should edit your first post to include the rule "The character must be from a show you like".... or this will become (like so many other threads) a "what's your least favorite show" thread in disguise.

Not true because I love Good Times and feel that the stupid J.J character was very overrated.

Exactly.
But I know for a fact that at at least one person put a character from a show they don't like.

I could've easily put "Ray Barone" from ELR, but I didnt -- because I think these type of threads should only include characters from shows that you like.


You've done it right so far, because I know that you like both Happy Days and Good Times.

If that's the new rule of the game, I nominate Christine Armstrong Fox from the otherwise good Coach. (I would have said Kelly, but she--thank goodness--left during the middle of the series.)
