I like David Jason but thought it was terrible casting for A Touch of Frost. He's only about 5' 7" and just doesn't cut it for me as a copper. He never really had a regular sidekick and if he did they didn't seem that tall either apart from Robert Glenister's few appearances. If he came face to face with a big villain he wouldn't exactly scare the 5hite out of them.

Alice from Vicar of Dibley - a completely pointless character who would be locked up in a padded cell in real life

Hugo could be forgiven as he was your normal village idiot but she was something else altogether

He's brilliant in Frost.

Frankly I think he's better in Frost than he is in Only Fools and Horses.

He was a detective who investigated crimes not going around kicking the sh1t out of them so his size is irrelevant.

The main characters kid from the strain, my god what a pain in the hole.
Actually I've noticed recently that in shows lil kids have to be shown as sulky little feckers.

Sally Webster and Gail Platt.

Pair of irritating cunts.

Littlefinger in Game of Thrones.

Sort your fûcking accent out.

Although I couldn't agree more with the accent but I think his character is probably one of the best on television.

Alex Dunphy (the younger daughter) in Modern Family. Ughhh!

Any character portrayed by Bradley Cooper.

His break-neck speed delivery is extremely grating. Silver Linings Playbook and American Hustle are two widely acclaimed films he starred in recently that I thought were ruined by his presence.

Was an A-hole in the Hangover films too.

I'll see your Bradley Cooper and raise you Ken Jeong. He plays the same unfunny, irritating character in everything.

Quite a few people saying Sansa Stark. I actually find her younger siblings way more annoying, especially Bran. I also don't get the love for Arya - God I found her beyond tedious this season. Her treatment of The Hound at the end of the last season was unforgiveable to me. Ungrateful useless little brat.

Arrow, the baddie in the Twilight series. He reminds me of every solicitor I've ever met.

Every bloody character in Twilight. Bella is super selfish who hides behind her father as an excuse to get everything her way; she doesnt even particulary like her dad, shes angsty and moany and moody. Edward is like 200 years old wanting to bang a girl whos just about legal :pac:

I think the brother is worse, a great example of a good child actor that becomes really **** and annoying as they get into their teens, shouldve recast the character.

Bravo. I came on to say it. How it took so many posts is beyond me.

Any character ever played by Danny Dyer. Hes a facking kant in his own words.

Or an even better idea, just end the show. I actually quite liked it at first, but it jumped the shark a long time ago

Vince Vaughn's character in True Detective is ridiculous. He's way out of his depth, but to be fair some of the dialogue he has been handed is terrible. Marlon Brando probably couldn't make that role work.

Alexis Castle: Holy ****, what a miss perfect priss

AJ Soprano. Just found him a whiny, entitled, ignorant and ungrateful little **** who caused Tony no end of grief and was a continuous disappointment. You'd have scenes where Tony'd be trying to teach him things about his heritage or talk to him about current events for school and the likes and he'd just sit there with a sulky expression whining about how bored he was.

One episode he actually resented Tony for not being richer ffs, for "not having Don Corleone money". Another where

in the penultimate episode Tony has a hit called on him by Phil Leotardo and Tony's evacuating the house to protect everyone as the Brooklyn mob have shown a worryingly apparent lack of hesitation to involve family when one of their capos makes perverted remarks toward Meadow in a restauarant. All AJ does is whine and cry that the situation is worsening his depression when Tony's sole concerns are protecting them from collateral damage and preventing himself from getting killed

Course, i get the point that he's a product of their ****e parenting and pampering but it just meant he was a character (in fact the one character in the 86 episode history of the show) that i gave very little of a **** about. Just annoyed me in pretty much every scene he was in.

Contrast his arc with Christopher's, the "son" in his other family and a similar disappointment. Yet Chris's story was one of the most engaging in the series.

'Cheese' from 'The Wire'.

Ah, Cheese got his comeuppance though, which made him worthwhile for me. Even the unlikeable characters in the Wire were great. That's how much I love that show.

Phil Mitchell in Eastenders. I just hate the way nobody is allowed to be harder than him, even characters younger, bigger and fitter, who could clearly beat the **** out of him. It's ridiculous (and yeah I know, it's a soap so that more or less goes with the territory.)

I think the point of AJ is Tony's complete failure to nurture his son and the projection all his self loathing on to AJ. It also spoke to the cyclical nature of toxic parenting which Tony experienced with his mother(Chase spoke in several interviews about his own poor relationship with his father and his depression). I mean who couldn't feel sorry for AJ when he p*ssed himself in his military school uniform before he was to be sent away, when what he actually needed was a present father? When he tried to kill Junior to get some sort of love or approval from Tony?

Lily from Modern Family.
I despise that child.

Total blanket ban in our house on any show with her in it.

To be fair, she was really excellent in The Color Purple, albeit almost unrecognisable to modern audiences as an introverted petite young woman.

Shes got 3 dragons and about as much acting ability as them combined, shes beyond useless in the show.

Who cares, she's absolutely gorgeous.

He was perfect as Frost....the character is not and was never meant some big burly copper who kicked the crapped out of every suspect to get a result....if you read the books he's written as rather slovenly and not remotely policeman like but with a sharp mind and incredible intuition.

His appearance is meant to disarm and make suspects etc think he's a bit gormless and not a threat to them when he fact he tends of have the case solved almost from the start most of the time.

Livia Soprano

Mentioned several times already but she deserves many more mentions.

Crooked Jack · 06-08-2015 10:27AM

Probably been mentioned already but worth mentioning again given that she's the worst person ever but Susan from Friends. I dont even like Friends that much but I still hate her.

Oh, also April Ludgate from Parks and Rec for not being real and not being my girlfriend
