    Morag in Home and Away was a nasty piece of work

    I don't watch this by choice.....the girlfriend watches it...

    Scott from Geordie shore....

    Watch his left arm swinging around with every word as he vents to the camera....I wanna chop his arms off and beat him to death with the soggy bit.
    I hate him and every bastid in it. Horrible people.

    I watch that with the wife too, to me he's the only one who seems "real" for want of a better word. Granted he's a bit of a cock but I get the impression he knows he's essentially won the lotto and is just there for a laugh. The rest of them to me anyway seem to be playing a character, Jesus yer one Charlotte who comes out with "mad" stuff seems really scripted. The show drives me nuts but I do get the odd laugh out of Scott.

    Anyway, for me there is a clear winner here, Lisa Simpson almost ruined the Simpsons back when it was good.

    Shouldn't come as a surprise that she hosted Aussie Weakest Link, then. ;)

    So do you not like episodes such as "Lisa's Pony", "I Love Lisa" and "Lisa the Vegetarian", then? :o:);)

    Gail from Coronation Street
    The hypochondriac lad who was always is scrubs

    In a show jammed full of utterly unsympathetic characters, Deadwood's Cy Tolliver stood out as a particularly nasty piece of work.

    Also Bouncer from Neighbours was a real tool, couldn't stand him.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,812 ✭✭✭Vojera


    Jenny Schecter from The L Word. I know they really played on her unlikeability towards the end, but even at the start I wanted to stab her in her stupid face. Actually, a lot of the characters in that show were unlikeable.

    She had to be with an evil name like 'Morag'

    She was like 'Murdoc' in McGyver

    I hate 'Artemis' from It's always sunny in Philidelphia. Every scene she's in just annoys me

    Elmo in Sesame Street.Any of us who watched it as kids in the 70s and 80s hate that little Johnny come lately twerp.

    If it weren't for him, though, we'd have probably never seen the Hydra orientation video.

    Valeen from Knot's Landing. Urgh. Pointless woman. There from the start and became obsolete as other female characters came to the fore. Nobody missed her after she left.


  • Registered Users Posts: 786 ✭✭✭ps3man


    The girlfriends in The Big Bang Theory. Ruined what was at best a watchable show.

    Everyone in the Simpsons past season 10. Watched a season 26 episode the other night, enough to undo all the amazing work of the first few seasons it was that bad.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 74 ✭✭LiamHam82


    Bernadette in Big Bang Theory, horribly forced character, everything about her is irritating

    Ross in Friends, probably my most hated TV character ever, not so bad in the first few seasons but jesus he overacted big time in every episode after.

    The entire cast of Shortland Street, Home & Away, Fair City & Neighbours

    Portia De Rossi in Ally McBeal, one of the reasons why the show got old really fast after the first two very good seasons.

    Peter in Family Guy, well probably the show in general, some jokes were dragged out to the point I just changed channel.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,194 ✭✭✭foxy farmer


    All the characters in Fair City.
    All the characters in NCIS. Especially Gibbs and the science tech lab wan.
    Horatio in CSI
    Rihannas character in Battleship.
    David Brent in the Office.

    Oh thank God, it's not just me that hated him!!!!!

    I love Friends but absolutely hated Ross. He was so self absorbed!!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,171 ✭✭✭Ridley


    I found Jean-Ralphio from Parks and Recreation incredibly irritating (that's the character but the personality sucked my enjoyment out of the show until he went away). Still, he did this:



    So he has one redeeming quality.

    Caught an episode of Gilmore Girls at workplace once and everyone was replying to each other in sarcastic quips which made a show I had no interest in even more toxic.

    From Roddy Doyles Family?At least he was supposed to be unlikeable.I found the son in that to be a right cheeky,bullying little pr!ck.My favourite moment in the whole series was when the teacher gave him a dig in response to some lip.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,581 ✭✭✭smilerf


    King Louis from The Musketeers. . He is so stupid it's unreal and bad acting

    Ted from How I Met Your Mother
    Ross from Friends

    Ryan Tubridy from The Late Late Show.....


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,827 ✭✭✭madmaggie


    When I was a kid, watching that crappy show Hart to Hart, I always wanted the the main characters to get bumped off. So smug and smarmy.


  • Registered Users Posts: 85,373 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    As seasons have gone on, I got to say Olivia Pope from Scandal


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,047 ✭✭✭GerB40


    Well there's the obvious ones like Joffrey (Game of Thrones) Skylar (Breaking Bad) AJ (The little shíthead from The Sopranos) but for me the least likeable character in any TV show is Ziggy from season 2 of The Wire. He has literally no redeeming qualities in my opinion. He was obviously put there for comic effect and eventually became a plot device which, in the grand scheme of things, was pretty irrelevant for the show. A rare misstep from the makers of The Wire if you ask me..

    Yea Ted and Ross are pretty much the same person - self obsessed. Wondered why I disliked the character - so clear now.

    Norris from Corry too - grumpy old men don't do it for me!!

    Yeah everyone hated Ziggy.Staying with The Wire Maurice Levy The lawyer for the gangs had to be one of the most repellent characters on TV ever.He just made my skin crawl every time he appeared.Saul from Breaking Bad has obvious parralels but at least he has some redeeming features.
