Tanya Baxter - That's So Raven. She's just an annoying character.

TripperFan · 04-08-2005, 05:07 PM

Marie Barone takes the cake. I'd say Endora, but Marie is ALWAYS over there!

One TV mother who I hated was Sylvia Buchman, Paul Buchman's (Paul Reiser) Mom from "Mad About You." She was so mean to Helen Hunt's character.

The mom off of Arrested Development. She's annoying.

Marie Barone is DEFINITELY the most annoying TV mother. She is always over Raymond's favoring him and trying to be a control freak to him and Robert. There is more but im sure everyone gets what I am talking about.

dandelion wine · 04-10-2005, 09:04 PM

Marie Barone and Endora, hands down.

rossnrach4ever · 04-10-2005, 09:25 PM

I know that Marie is the most annoying but my second place is Judy Geller
for bad mother. It must have been hard for poor Monica , criticized for everything she did wrong. No wonder she is the control freak she is. Food was her addiction and she turned to it . Judy even forgets she has a second child, once told Rachel she was the daughter she never had. That is a pretty annoying mother , and Judy still finds fault even when her pride and joy can't stay married or get someone pregnant. At least Monica can stay in a marriage. So she is the second most annoying mother.

Clair Huxtable...I mean she was just portrayed a little too perfectly. She was a partner in a law firm, but yet had enough time to raise 5 children and be around enough to cook, clean, discipline, and make time for her husband.

Then what about June Cleaver!!! You want perfection to its MOST annoying!!! 'Come on - the pearl necklaces, lovely dress, apron, high heels - full lipstick - and she's supposed to be scrubbing the johns!!!

At least Clair probably had the kids doing some of the chores!

I am kind of surprised that nobody mentioned Roseanne from Roseanne. I like the show because of Laurie Metcalf, Sara Gilbert, Sarah Chalke, and John Goodman. I have never been fond of Roseanne herself. The way she treated her husband and kids, in my opinion, no mother should treat their kids the way she did. JMO.
I also have to agree with some of you on Marie Barone. She did favor one kid over another. She was always bragging to everyone about Raymond even in front of Robert who was obviously envious. How mean. She did make me laugh, though. Doris Roberts is a laugh a minute.
Yeah, I also agree about Endora, she was so mean to poor Darrin, and he was a great guy and a great husband and father. I think she always wanted Samantha with a warlock, not a mortal. She was funny though.

How about the mother on Malcolm In The Middle? It's a wonder that Malcolm is smart with a b**ch of a mother like her.

All of her kids is going to need therapy!As for the comment on June Cleaver,I would rather have her as a mother than some of these retarted mothers that are out there today.
