Who do you think is the worst or one of the worst child television actors? My pick would be Janet Jackson,just absolutely terrible in every way.

I never heard of him or that show,my guess is it's probably a modern tv show.I don't watch any of the modern shows because in my opinion they are no good.No offense to anyone.Since the shows are no good the child actors must be terrible on the newer shows too.I guess I should have originally asked who is the worst child actor on the older television shows.

Second on Richie. As much as I like that show, I couldnt stand Richie, he was beyond annoying.

Scott Baio

His character pretty much killed Happy Days for me

Silly Lily · 11-04-2010, 09:20 PM

The twin boys who played Nicky and Alex on Full House

The twin boys who played Sam and David on 7th Heaven.

I don't know any of their names because all four have thankfully quit acting.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Dawn Lyn, "Dodie" from My Three Sons -- although personally I didn't mind her at all, she seems to be very unpopular with sitcom fans.

C'mon, Susan Olsen was a real charmer in Season 1 at least...!

i met her once she was very very nice and in fact even thought i didnt ask her about it i have heard her say in interviews that she herself wished that the my three sons producers had not made dodie as whiny as she was to them it was cute to dawn and other fans dodie;s whining was annoying

I'm probably going to have to hide after this, but Jerry Mathers was an okay child actor who turned into a terrible adult actor.
