People Are Sharing TV Main Characters That They Just Couldn’t Stand, And Here’re 30 Of The Most Hated Ones
Typically, we love to watch shows and films with main characters we can root for. A relatable underdog who against all odds manages to save the world or an unlikely, awkward hero who uses their humor and charisma to perform incredible feats. Lots of us can’t help but crave a happy ending, and we don’t always see the point in dedicating hours to watching a show where we hate the main character. Yet somehow, annoying protagonists still manage to persist and star in some of the most popular shows of all time.
2 weeks ago, Reddit user Competitive_Owl7085 sparked a conversation by asking for the most unlikable main characters of TV shows, and people did not hold back in the replies. Below, we’ve gathered a list of some of the most insufferable protagonists that viewers have called out, so be sure to upvote the responses dragging characters you can’t stand either. Let us know in the comments if there are any other central characters you despise, despite the plots of their shows revolving around them, and then if you’re interested in checking out another Bored Panda article calling out hated characters from films and TV shows, look no further than right here.

Carrie Bradshaw. Unbelievably entitled, shallow, spoiled and treated all of her friends like s**t. I don't enjoy the show for what it is, it's my favourite hate-watch just to see the new depths Carrie will sink to every episode.
Especially heinous was when she got herself into debt by tanking her relationship with the guy who bought and was renovating her apartment and turned down money offered by two of her best friends just so she could b***h out the one that didn't offer. And for some reason that friend ended up giving her the money.
And she tried to cheat on her husband with a guy that she had previously cheated on.
And she replaced her old friend with a younger more diverse version when they fell out.
Sometimes, we watch shows featuring characters we wish we could invite over for dinner and become best friends with. Other times, we watch shows revolving around people we would slap in the face if we had the opportunity. But it can be hard to determine whether script writers and creators of a show intended to make their main characters unlikable, or if the audience just collected decided that they hated them.
Certain shows, like Breaking Bad or The Sopranos were created to feature a villain in the main role. But when the audience gets to decide whether they love or loathe a protagonist, there are several factors that can make them much less likable. According to Chris Winkle at Mythcreants, one of the most common reasons audiences don’t feel the need to root for a main character is because they have “too much candy”. This “candy” refers to “anything that glorifies a character”, Chris explains. If everyone is constantly praising the character and everything seems to always work out for them, the audience won’t find them relatable and will likely begin to hate them.
Ross from Friends. I hate him so much. And, he doesn't even eat the smaller friends to assert dominance, which makes him suck twice as much.
Meredith Grey.
How many 'dead' sisters can one b***h have?
And her saying 'I'm a widow so I'll just have to accept that I have had all the orgasms I ever will' set feminism back like 5000 years.
One if I remember correctly. Lexie died in the plane crash. Maggie, (Same mother, different dad) is still alive. Amelia Sheppard, (Her husbands sister, i.e, sister-in-law) is still alive. And Molly (Same dad, different mother) is also alive.
Raymond on *Everybody Loves Raymond*, conceited little bastard.
I never liked the way his parents treated his older brother, Robert. Talk about favoritism and the golden child treatment of the younger brother.
On the other hand, when a character has “spinach”, or anything that creates sympathy for them, audiences tend to like them more. Each character should have a balance of candy and spinach, so they are seen as capable and competent but also relatable and fallible. No matter how unrealistic a plotline is, audiences probably won’t accept a character who is glorified without seeming to earn or work hard for their accomplishments.
Another trait that can quickly tank the approval rating of a protagonist is when they are too hard on other characters. Three common examples Chris notes of this are when they have arguments between other protagonists, when they tease, criticize or give another character a hard time, or when they try to convince another character to handle their personal problems differently or go about their life differently. “Problems in this area are especially likely if there is an imbalance of power,” Chris notes. “If one person is a leader and another a subordinate, then the leader will be held to a higher standard when they get in an argument.”
Peppa Pig.
What an annoying, obnoxious, narcissistic little brat
Sheldon Cooper from The Big Bang Theory. Went from a clueless socially awkward side character in the first couple of years to a self-centered narcissistic bully. I don't know why they ever hung out with him.
Everyone was so mean to each other. It turned out to be a real bad mood show, which was made worse by background laughter. I still feel like there's something wrong with me when I don't find that kind of humor funny. Bernadette was also a really judgmental and difficult character.
No, nothing wrong. It’s just a bad show, with bad characters, who are mean to each other and even crossing the border of homophobia and racism. The way Raj was always treated as appalling

It was interesting to watch the development of the character. He seems to be born with a high form of the asperger-syndrom and might be autistic, while suffering from several OCDs. But everytime he realises/learns about an error, fault, problem he tries to move mountains to help or to learn how to correct said fault (e.g. reading emotions or how to act in social situations) - not that it's working everytime. ||| personally I'm impressed by his friends, b/c how they learned to work with him and teach him how to function in sociality. At the same time I'm impressed on the development of him. After the last episode, I randomly watched one episode of each season and the differences are Faszination. ||| so, yes he is an a**e, but he's learning. The series is built like Gaussian function.
This is exactly it. When I first watched the series I was blinded by how much of an a*s he is. I watched it again and was like, "why did I like this" but the more I watched, the more I realized. These group of friends are sometimes aweful to each other, but they always learn from it and make it up to each other. Much more realistic than other relationships on other shows. Plus I have Asperger's and trust me, you don't realize when you are offending someone, but I feel awful about it when I do. Self harm, mentally and physically. Thankfully I have grown from that but every once and A while I will slip up.

Funny thing, my sister in law is a doctor, and She use to love Sheldon's character just because how realístic it was from a person with severe Asperger.
God this show is so painfully bad, and the sexist humor doesn't make it better at all
OMG!!! What were people watching?!!! One of THE BEST shows and characters ever!!!!
Strangely of all sitcoms The Big Bang Theory had the best finale ever.
Sad that they made Penny have that trite 'happy ending' by getting pregnant, when the character had been categorical in not wanting that. Tired, clichéd writing.

Pointing this out is like telling someone the sky is blue. He was written to be intolerable. All the characters constantly remind him that. If anyone has a problem with that and write shows for a living please stop. I’m not interested in shows where there’s no conflicting personalities and everyone gets along. Keep your stories of a homogeneous society to yourselves.
Have you seen the versions where the canned laughter is removed? It’s physically painful.
You are aware that they film it in front of an actual audience? There is no canned laughter… I was at Their set and sat through a filming.

Seriously, I don't know why anyone would watch this lame excuse of a show. Try to find a few episode without laugh track - the saddest thing to ever have been on TV.
The show is good,how about you do something with yourself

Basically, a standard "all the men are horny, all the women are lonely, let's all hook up all the time" sitcom. Instead of working in a department store, a radio station, a pizza place, or misc dead-end jobs, they're all 'successful' nerds. I know people with iQ's in the 140's to 150's, actual 'nerds' and they DON'T spend all their time trying to get laid. They actually enjoy their work, some have S.O.s, some don't care. And they understand the difference between reality and make-believe.
R.C: Yes. Just make the characters work at jobs not requiring a university degree since the humour was low-brow. I could also accept them studying full time at Community College or Trade School. Also, their unconfident exploratory Behaviour would make more sense if they were identified as 20 y.o. when the show started, so they could still be silly, learning about relationships and developing their personalities as the series progressed. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Given the show's premise, there was missed opportunity for some humour that wasn't aimed at the 19 y.o. level. Since half of all people just grow older rather than growing up, that's probably too much to expect for mainstream TV. Since I see the world a little differently than most, it's nice to be reminded that I'm not the only one who sees it as I do.

And yet when I tell people I’m autistic there’s always a “LIKE SHELDON?! ARE YOU A GENIUS”
... if you drop your mensa membership card, the same insults are thrown at you. At first, I didn't even get he is meant to depict someone intelligent, I just thaught he was meant to depict a huge a*****e...

Sheldon used to drive me crazy too, but not nearly as much as Howard. Oh my God how was that man not in jail for sexual harrassment? His character made me cringe.
I felt he was the perfect foil for Leonard. The deeper dive into families of origin supported the characters attraction to one another. Being an Aspie myself, I related to his struggles... although I still feel gift giving is an abhorrent social convention. Of all the shows on the list, this is the only show that I have watched at all. In fact, I watch it repeatedly with relish.
....the whole show: cartoon caricatures of women and humourless, one dimensional so called 'nerds' who are a nothing more than a marketing ploy for DC/Marvel and Disney.....
Love Sheldon especially when he started his relationship with Amy so funny
I remember one episode where Leonard tells someone--maybe Bob Newhart--that Sheldon is broken and needs him. So it may be that Leonard's good heart was stronger than Sheldon's bad character.
I actually liked Sheldon. Howard however 🤮🤮🤮 creepy, man baby, pervy little freak. He made my skin crawl, then he says about wanting to be a dad, when it happens he's the worst parent ever! And gets everyone else to look after the kids 🙄
I suffered a broken leg several summers ago and had to spend a lot of time doing very little. One day I ended up watching about 6 episodes of syndicated re-runs of this show. It was all the same thing, intelligent people trying to placate little whiny boy. Nope, never again.
Sheldon stayed on the show because he could take you from helpless laughter to unbelievable annoyance in the space of 5 minutes. Big Bang had one of the best ensemble casts on a television show.
I've heard a lot of similar complaints about this show, but I still love it.
Love the character but I have a bone to pick that every pseudo Asperger or socially awkward person I've met since that show comes out, now thinks its ok to act like an a*****e all the time.
I love the Big Bang, Sheldon made me think of my autistic son immediately ! Sheldon does it mean it but on the other hand Howard and Bernadette were horrible characters
I watched one episode, and remember thinking "that a*****e is correntlydivorcing me." I promise, he's a *lot* less funny irl, and I have zero idea why anyone likes him.
Which a*****e was divorcing you? Because Jim Parsons (Sheldon) is Gay

What I find unbelievable about the whole show is how all these "geniuses" can do pretty much anything in the sciences or technology. In reality even a genius is adept at there own field. How can a theoretical physicist find time to learn Java Script?
I honestly feel like Sheldon Cooper has done more harm to people on the spectrum than good. I'm sick of being compared to a FICTIONAL CHARACTER.
Can't stand that show. I honestly believe that most of the people who claim to be fans just do so because they think that because some of the jokes are science based it makes them look smart to find them funny despite the fact if you remove the laughter track they wouldn't be able to identify the joke(I know someone who I had to explain several of the scientific principles brought up in the show for so he could understand the joke, I don't get how he could claim the show was hilarious when he doesn't understand the jokes).
We also tend to have zero sympathy for protagonists when it feels like they caused or are exacerbating their own struggles. For example, if a character is in debt and could easily ask their rich parents to help them out but they refuse to out of pride, audiences might roll their eyes. We won’t feel bad for them as they struggle to find another solution.
There is a fine line when it comes to creating hardships in a protagonist’s life, because if they got themselves into a difficult situation due to being selfish or incompetent, we probably won’t care. But if they ended up with more problems by trying to help or look out for someone else, audiences will usually allow that. Chris notes that protagonists often refuse obvious or simple solutions because it would eliminate the story’s conflict, but audiences will see right through plot holes like this.
Alan from two and a half men
It has been ages since I watched the show, so I have to ask if my assumptions are correct. -- whiny, manipulative, selfcentered, jealous? || I just remember that I thought "get your @ss up and do something about xyz" and "at least Charlie is honest with his intentions" quite often
There are some shows that masterfully depict an unlikeable protagonist. Dexter, Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul and Barry are some of the most popular examples. As long as the audience can understand the motivation behind a main character’s morally questionable actions, we might still find a way to root for them, or at least stay invested in the show despite hating them. The team at Industrial Scripts breaks down how to create an unlikable protagonist without having your audience turn on you in this article they wrote examining how we manage to sit through some of these famous shows starring anti-heros.
Aside from making their motivation reasonable, anti-heros can also win an audience’s affection by being relatable to them. Characters like Tonya Harding in I, Tonya and Mark Zuckerberg in The Social Network don’t necessarily act in the best interest of others at all times, but we might relate to the struggles they face in the world. Tonya has dealt with abuse from her mother and husband that make audiences want to root for her, and despite his arrogance and selfishness, Mark’s determination and lack of social awareness can be seen as redeemable traits by some audiences.
Tweety bird. I always feel sorry for Sylvester because that little bird is so obnoxious.
Do you prefer watching shows with anti-heros you hate or loveable heros? Regardless of your preference, I’m sure you can relate to despising some of the main characters on this list. Keep upvoting the responses you wholeheartedly agree with, and feel free to share any more protagonists that you can’t stand in the comments below.

Emily from Emily in Paris.
Watched first episode of first season and NOPE.
Can't believe there's going to be a third season.
Lena Dunham’s character on Girls
Susan Myers from *Desperate Housewives.* Whiny, childish, dramatic and never took responsibility for ANYTHING, to the point her teenage daughter has to balance the chequebooks and make doctor's appointments for her. She repeatedly screws her friends over if she thinks it'll help her win back Mike, burns Edie's house down and doesn't fess up for years, slutshames Edie while constantly jumping from relationship to relationship (oh, and she cheats on her boyfriend he's in a coma), butts into situations that have nothing to do with her and when a trail guide calls her out on how she's a selfish drama queen, she throws a tantrum and storms off into the woods and the only reason she doesn't die of exposure is because Mike inexplicably manages to track her down. Oh, and she forced Gabby to go on a date with her mentally unstable stalker to try to persuade him to pay Mike's bail and doesn't give a s**t that this could seriously endanger Gabby.
Rachel Berry from glee. She was a b***h and never got what she deserved.
Joffrey Baratheon and Ramsay Bolton from GOT. Can't decide which one I hated more.
Eric from that 70s show. He’s an a*****e throughout the whole show but towards the end of the series it really ramps up. Wth did Donna see in him??
The point was that all the characters made idiotic mistakes in their relationships, maybe less so for Kitty and Redd. The show is almost educational in its demonstrations of dating do’s and don’ts. Eric was well meaning, and learned from mistakes
I can't believe I haven't seen Prue Halliwell yet!! She was awful. Eeeverything was about her. Anytime there was a big bad demon out and about it was "the demon is here for me and me alone and I have to be the one to stop it". Like no girl. The power of 3 is not just you. She ruined Pipers wedding and that's the ultimate sister foul. She was awful to Phoebe out of pure jealousy. Always bringing up the past like she was the only one capable of change when she was the one character who literally never grew. Even Daryl evolved somehow! Oh and crapping all over Phoebes relationship with Cole. Yeah he was a demon but she didn't know that at first. She just couldn't be happy for her younger sister because she spent so many years pushing Andy away. Damn I love that show.
Sadly enough that's the actress' ACTUALL personality. Aaron Spelling fired her from 90210 for it and then gave her ANOTHER CHANCE with Charmed. Guess what? She didn't learn. So, he fired her AGAIN.
Dawson from Dawson’s Creek
I sort of watched this show back in it's original run, but I hated Dawson. I would watch it on Netflix now, but still hate Dawson and would only want to watch for the adorable-ness that is Pacey and Joey (which I can easily find on YouTube, sans Dawson, ideally). Josh Jackson for the win! Fellow Canadian, yay!
It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia
All five of them are goddamn trash, and I couldn't love them more.
House. A person like that in real life would be unbearable.
Sabrina in the new show.
Damn near everyone on Shameless, but Frank or Debbie fight for the top spot
I have to "defend" Frank; it's pure character work at its finest as he is a junkie, an alcoholic with no interest in being a father (or only when it benefits earning some fast cash to support his life style) who is just driven to get his next shot, his next high. How he manages all this is quite genius and his demise is also a very logical verdict of how he lived. Debbie on the other hand... mmh... that's a tough nut I still not have a convincing opinion about. She started out strong and I was sure as hell that she might become someone great despite her upbringing. But as nobody really cares for one another in the Gallager famliy (other than when s**t already hit the fan) I was not surprised at all when she became a self centered teen mom who constantly tries to outmatch the others around her. And she always wanted to be loved but she could not deny that she, from all the other siblings, is a female Frank in manipulating others.
Walter White. Every choice he makes puts his family at risk, he refuses help out of stupid pride, he’s arrogant, and he wound up getting at least 160 people [taken out]. He’s a brilliant chemist but he’s a s**ty businessman and an evil person.
That's the point of the show, duh! That's what "Breaking bad" means. He is a good guy gone bad, and one of the most complex and interesting caracters in TV history. And also played by a brilliant actor.
Bojack Horseman, though I suppose that's the point.

Clarke from the 100 because she just brings death everywhere! I get that she is the main character and keeps the story moving, but she's a jerk to everyone around her, only helps when she wants to, and just makes people feel horrible if they do something wrong! I hated her so much! Another thing, the entirety of Bellamy during the "shepherd" part of the show. Specifically when he believed in him?? I was attracted to him, up until that point. He just reminded me of another self centered Christian that you have to believe the one way and making others feel bad if they don't agree!
I don't like shows where the characters are purposefully assholes. Always Sunny, Seinfeld, Arrested Development, even The Office. I have enough of that in real life.
Eliot Stabler from Law and Order SVU -just couldn't. No cop should be like him.
A controversial one here....Captain B.J. Hunnicutt in M*A*S*H, starts out OK but seems to end up being a me me me character.
Michael Scott from The Office. I know he’s not supposed to be likable but he’s immature, obnoxious to the point of abusive, and has a very questionable relationship with his position of authority. Though I admit that it may just be that anytime I had a boss like that, it was hell on earth, so that’s why I can’t bring myself to find it funny
Ben Hope from the graphic novel and Netflix series Heartstopper, he's so awful to Charlie, but the actor who plays him is so freaking cute and wholesome! Ben Hope hate club!
Clarke Griffin from The 100. I could’t even get past like 10 episodes, because she just made so angry.
I watched every episode of the 100 and her behavior ' to save her people' and attitude gets even worse by the end.

I think I'm really, really glad I don't watch tv, and have never seen 99% of these people. Other than "Raymond" (whom I do NOT "love") and Dr. Phil (who is one of the biggest jerks in the world), I have no idea who any of the humans are. The only cartoon characters I recognize are "Tweety Bird" and "Jerry" (mouse), and because they were MEANT to be so-called obnoxious, I never minded that they were.
The thing about lists like this is how it points out to me how much stuff on tv I have never watched and have no interest in watching. Yay me. Lol.
Almost all the characters in The Ranch on Netflix. I've watched it a few times and I started to realize that other than Heather, Joanne, and Dale, most of the main characters are unlikable. Abby absolutely drove me insane. She made mistake after mistake and always blamed Cole. She never took reasonability for her own actions. The other characters also had their own issues but I think Cole should have ended up with Heather.

I think I've seen maybe two of these shows, and here I thought I watched a lot of tv.
Dean Winchester. A narcissistic prick, constantly using "we're family" as blackmail. In the later seasons of Supernatural, he got on my nerves so much I had to stop watching.
Temperance Brennan from Bones. She can recite obscure mating rituals of long extinct races, but is completely clueless about social cues and obvious jokes of actual living people she interacts with every day. Which is quite a failure for someone who calls herself "best anthropologist in the world". She is so insecure that she needs to constantly insult and belittle everyone else's intelligence to feel better about herself. Every time she repeats her "i'm beautiful, smart and rich" mantra, i keep hearing Tywin Lannister saying "Any man who must say, 'I am the king' is no true king". Always feeling the need to point out that Sweets is "not a real doctor" and his job "not a real job", even though he fulfilled exact same requirements to get his degree as she did and his knowledge of psychology (aka "not a real science") was instrumental in helping to solve numerous cases. In 12 seasons, her self absorbed narcissistic bully personality did not evolve at all.
So Lorelai Gilmore Jr. gets two mentions but Sookie Stackouse doesn't even make it on the list?smh
She-Hulk from her self titled show. Has a near perfect life, young, with a good and well paid job, a roof over her head, no dependables, zero family trauma (which is rare in this genre)...oh and super powers, yet complains more than other super hero out there. Just an unlikeable, selfish and entitled person.
The whole goddamn Fleming family on Heartland. Amy is a Mary Sue, plain and simple. SHE's always the victim, and never makes any mistakes. EVER. Lou is a control freak and hypocrite who values making a profit over everything else. Tim is a deadbeat dad who only cares about his children when he wants something. They should really have cut contact with him long ago. Ty, Jack, and Mallory are decent characters though.
I definitely watch too much TV. The only ones from this list l despise though are Carrie Bradshaw and Lena Dunham. Named purposely.

Lou is a control freak and hypocrite who values making a profit over everything else. Tim is a deadbeat dad who only cares about his children when he wants something. They should really have cut contact with him long ago. Ty, Jack, and Mallory are decent characters though.
I definitely watch too much TV. The only ones from this list l despise though are Carrie Bradshaw and Lena Dunham. Named purposely.
I know everyone hates Wesley, but I actually like him! What do you dislike about him?
