You're supposed to like Meredith from Grey's Anatomy, but since the writing and acting was poor, she's a pretty disliked character.

      Agreed. And this is coming from someone whose favorite character on the show is John Locke - the one whom Jack butted heads with the most. Jack certainly has many flaws, but that's true of most of the characters (a key reason why they were chosen as candidates). I almost never find myself truly disliking him as a character. And I agree that his character arc is one of the greatest ever - eventually becoming the character that John Locke once was and admitting that he had been right about everything, wishing he could've told him that. That was definitely a surprising start to the list...

    Not famous enough to be on this list, but Lilly from Cold Case. This was such a great show but she was unbearable! While the unit could work together as a team she would be the "strong independent" cop that goes against the others, her boss's wishes and common sense to prove everyone wrong! And the fact that she is the one who sees the victim's ghosts at the end instead of the people who really cared about them was doubly frustrating.

You were with one of the victims (it was the episode where the guy owned a facility and helped others, but he lived somewhere and Lilly went to investigate.

    With Meredith, the show is constantly trying to convince us she's some badass hero when she's just a monotone plank of wood. "I'm so dark and twisty".. no, you're a bore. The show really overcompensates for it too. By s10 or so she's survived a bombing, drowning, a mass shooting, a plane crash, and I think a hurricane. She's one of the least interesting characters on the show and the actress is awful

      Well throughout the first 3 seasons which focused on keeping her alive due to her regenerative powers/supposed immortality being what could save the world does give her a reason to act like a drama queen somewhat as being told that her regenerative powers/supposed immortality being the only thing that saves the world, and having supervillains and corrupt government officials trying to find a way to kill her or capture her and exploit her powers/supposed immortality on a constant basis does make her life stressful.
      But I will agree in that she had no reason to be a drama queen in Season 4 and onwards as her story-arc was done and she was no longer in constant danger.

    The entire main cast of Seinfeld.
    For every group of people they encounter in each episode, they take it upon themselves to openly criticize and mock others for often immutable traits. And while that is meant to be part of the comedy (and it works for that), this is not a qualify for a 'good' person. It would be like going on a date with a girl who openly admits that she thinks she is above you because your facial proportions aren't 100% symmetrical, and that gives her right to talk down to you; not only that, but that she makes fun of your sexual preferences and kinks with her entire family.
    And when Jerry, George and Elaine are occasionally called out for this kind of behavior, they don't strive to better themselves, judging others for surface-level imperfections and possible insecurities. One week later, and they're back to heckling another person, like a high school bully who never learned to grow out of the taunting phase.
    Great show, but reprehensible characters.
