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.

Psych professionals want him locked in the same room as medical doctors want Dr. Oz locked in ----- a room deep under a radioactive waste dump, maybe. We have fun speculating where we'd put them after we get a round of "But the doctor on TV said..."

    People Are Sharing TV Main Characters That They Just Couldn't Stand, And Here're 30 Of The Most Hated Ones 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.

    Wasn't a fan of any of them. They were all spoiled snobs, who would dump men for the shallowest of reasons and then moan about how there were no good men around. All they cared about was fashion and they seemed to act like every minor inconvenience was a catastrophe. So annoying. I hate how Carrie and Big's relationship was portrayed as some big romance but was actually very toxic.

    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.

    People Are Sharing TV Main Characters That They Just Couldn't Stand, And Here're 30 Of The Most Hated Ones 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.

    Ross had his bad moments and good moments. There were several instances when he did something great for his friends (Phoebe's bike, Joey's kiss for an audition, Rachel and her make up - sure, he was in love with her, etc.). I get why Ross isn't popular but I really feel like he isn't nearly as bad as he was portrayed to be lately on the internet.

    Judging a tv character based on social norms 20 years ago. I'm glad norms are changing. I think Ross was the funniest character, not because of his old views that were written for his character but because his reactions where funny. Example: he's fine when Rachel and Joey started dating, pivot, his reaction when he finds out Monica and Chandler were dating. Please don't downvote me for having a different opinion.

    There are very few people, very, very few, who eat their friends. When their actions are uncovered they end up in the medico-legal system. Eating friends to assert dominance is most definitely not a character flaw.

    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.”

    Rewatched the show with the wife a couple years ago. Lorelai and later Rory are manipulative, rude, self-centered, and obnoxiously immature. I was so impressed with the writing the first time around and young myself that I never really understood how toxic they were to the men in their lives. They caused so much pain to men whose only crime was loving them.

    Lorelei too. It's easy to be "freewheeling" and "independent" when you know that you can always run home to wealthy parents.

    I didn’t care for the episodes of Gilmore Girls that I saw due to Rory. I found her to be snobby, entitled and spoiled with little regard for those around her. She hurt others for her own gain. She also talked in this weird babyish voice.

    She was cute in the beginning with redeeming qualities but those were slowly tossed out the window after her high school years...well, they were dumped instantly as soon as she met Logan and left Yale (cause one guy said she wasn't that great at one thing).

    I love Gilmore Girls in the early 2000s. But rewatching it I find it difficult to bear, because Lorelei is so incredibly self-centered. No regards for other people's feeling AT ALL. Rory is cute but not that much better.

    Yes I agree. Rory is the worst. But why does no one mention Lorelai when it comes to Gilmore girls? I don't know where to start.. The way she was talking to Jess, like trying to get into his nerves which was understandable under the circumstances BUT she was a grown a*s adult and he was a kid.Kinda made her a loser in my eyes. I mean who talks like that to a kid? The way she refused to underastand that when Jess was driving and they had an accident, it was literally an accident and not Jess's fault. When she completely ingored Luke's no cellphone rule at the diner. The way she treated her mother.. I can spend probably an hour writing examples of her being a very problematic adult. I hate that word but it describes her perfectly

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Itchy and Scratchy on The Simpsons take the antics of Tom and Jerry to an extreme, but they really spotlighted how one sided this cartoon was. The cat was supposed to be the bad guy and the mouse the hero, but too often, the mouse was the instigator of their fights and he took things too far. Even as a kid, I hated this cartoon because it wasn't funny, just mean spirited.

    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. 

    ADVERTISEMENT

    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.

    The first season was good, but Emily is not a likeable character. Shes like a ten yr old in fancy clothes-zero polish, or sophistication. The French would eat her alive, quite rightly.

    What I found most annoying about her was it was like an attention seeking thing she did with all the unnecessary full frontal nudity. One episode they have her outside on the sidewalk in nothing but a tee-shirt that didn't cover her bottom half, like whyyyy?????? And her relationships in the show were very cringeworthy. I never understood what all these men saw in her being her go-to moves were always being as cringy as humanly possible.

    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.

    To be fair, the entire point was for them to be horrible, hate-worthy characters. And it's really difficult to call anyone from GOT a "main character," given how many there were, and the fact that neither Joffrey nor Ramsay made it to the end of the series.

    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.

    I think it would have been a fine, possibly even great, show on it's own. Not trying to be a new Charmed, especially since they changed a lot of the base mythology of the original, like making the Elders other witches and letting them know about White Lighters right away! If they just changed the name of the show and maybe used a different term for white lighters and elders could have been a good show about 3 sisters finding out they are witches etc.

    Thank you. The writers made Pacey the one for Joey because the audience hated Dawson so much. Whenever I watch Pacey deal with something or articulating his emotions being the beautiful boy that he is, I think of what Dawson would've done in a situation like that and just laugh my a*s off. Imagine him trying to convince Andie to not kill herself in the bathroom during her breakdown, he would've been the one in mental hospital 5 minutes later.

    Ohh.. I have to disagree. He was an absolutely obnoxious a*s, but he was also kind of magic. He helped patients no one else could help. I knew I loved him when I saw the episode where, at Christmas dinner, he drugs his girlfriend's mother. When she passes out in her food, he tells GF "That's my Christmas present to you". That's beyond funny! And it gets funnier after that. He's a d**k but I love him!

    So bad that it made the whole show unwatchable for me. Which is a shame because the premise was good, the settings and overall atmosphere were well done, the storylines were promising, but then that spoiled, irritating brat in the middle of it all.

    I enjoyed the first two seasons, but it went downhill pretty quickly after that. It also annoyed me that Sabrina was such a prude. Like, what's the point of being a witch and being in a religion that promotes orgies 'n stuff if you're not going to make the most of that sh*t? (And that's not giving the actor any flak if that was a moral/personal choice for her, just sayin', it seemed like a waste of good, decadent witchy fun.)

    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.

They're very poorly written, that's the problem. Elena was a typical Y/A heroine, i.e. shallow, oh-poor-me I can't help but fall in love with this BAD but HOT guy, etc... 😖

I hated how everything in the show revolved around her cuz she’s so special & everyone bent over backwards to make her happy, all the guys fell in love with her & all the villains wanted to kill her. TVD is my favorite tv show but I dislike Elena a lot & was glad when she left the show after season 6.Too bad the plot of the last season 8 was stupid with the sirens. I liked season 7 thou with the heretics, they should have expanded more on that & brought it into season 8.

Her entitlement is OFF THE CHARTS. **spoiler** she’s a prisoner and demanding EVERYTHING. that blew my mind but that’s what you’re supposed to glean from it, that believes she’s superior no matter what circumstance she’s in.

    For me it's Michael Burnham from Star Trek: Discovery. She's incredibly arrogant and thinks she knows better than everyone. She starts a war with the Klingons due to her wanting revenge for her Captain being killed in front of her getting potentially billions of people killed. Then later on she befriends a mirror universe version of her Captain who in that universe is space Hitler who's been responsible for billions of deaths, genocide, torture, slavery you name it. Brings her back to her universe to be best chums with. Then a few season later she starts being a total b***h to her superiors in Starfleet disobeying every order she is given in every single episode. Which I s**t you not leads to her being promoted. How am I supposed to like this main character, even Captain Picard would slap her.

    Reading the OP's post and the comments I really glad that I've stopped to watch Star Trek in the early 2000s (and well absolutely enjoy to rewatch all those star fleet captains' and crews' adventure from time to time). Figured the "new" Star Trek series lacked massively of the unique and clever spirit. If I want to see 40 mins of battleships fighting in outer space, well Star wars covers that part nicely (no diss against SW!)... and if I want to watch the rest, I'll look out for Vin Diesel, the Rock followed by a high-school movie. (P.s.: not to discredit the Rock's actually fabulous appearance in Voager 🖖).

She was alright in the beginning but towards the end she just became unbearable. She didn’t realize how good she had it and how often things were just handed to her. She was so used to everything being the Rory show where she was always praised and the best of the best that the moment something didn’t go her way she flies off the handle and makes it everyone’s problem. And she never learned. The revival just showed she never learned or experienced any growth. To me Rory is a perfect example of “big fish in a small pond” not being able to cope outside their bubble and the outcome of not moderating praise and criticism of kids. There’s a reason Rory ended up the way she did and it’s because pretty much every adult in her life acted like she walked on water and could do no wrong. The best example I can think of was when she was told she wasn’t that good of a journalist. Rather than try to improve or ask for tips on how to improve she reacts by stealing an yacht! Yeah the Mitchum was harsh especially since she was just an intern but not everyone any the professional world is going to coddle you and tell you how wonderful you are. Which is all Rory had ever experienced because of her mom, her grandparents, her friends, hell the whole town treated her like some perfect goddess the world should praise simply for breathing. Being criticized sucks and it doesn’t feel good but everyone has to learn to cope with it and grow from it. Her reaction and actions were completely out of proportion and she acted like it was no big deal and anyone who said it was was overreacting. I think my favorite part of that whole situation was when Richard confronted Mitchum about his criticism of Rory and Mitchum pointed out Richard’s hypocrisy. Richard had done the same to plenty of people yet the moment it happened to his precious perfect granddaughter it’s not ok. Which yeah I get it’s his granddaughter but Richard was a hypocrite trying to act all “shame on you” when he’s done the same.

    Based on the Netflix revival Mitchum was right she did end up being a terrible reporter, she zoned out during 1 interview and slept with the subject of another.

    Amy Dubanowski in Superstore I mean Jonah can be a bit much but she is so mean to him and he is probably the nicest person. Then she strings him along for years and wants him to uproot himself across the US and she couldn’t even say if she wanted to marry him or not. Like it was still the beginning of the relationship and was treating it like a 5 year summer fling.

    I love June! BUT NOT IN THIS CURRENT NEW SEASON. I understand the character arch. I get it. **Spoiler** She’s now lost it in a mental breakdown and is on revenge at all cost. But this current season is NOT my type of show due to that plot line of a character that was victim turned hero. Now revenge at all cost is not what I want to watch. I stopped watching the current season when I used to impatiently wait for new episodes of all other seasons. I’m Sad!

    James from Twin Peaks. He was so weak and whiny and unnecessarily put a lot of blame for Laura Palmer's death on himself but even more so for Maggie's. His character was so useless and it just got progressively worse even into season 3 because they had no idea what to do with him. And damn that song...

    Pregnant mom has the gaul to wonder where her meth-dealing husband is, you mean? The guy who's lying to her about his illness and everything else? I heard the actress got so much flack from fans that she was reveiving death threats and had to go off social media for a while. Once the writers realized this, they tried to make her character less annoying. They needed a villain, so they had to create one via the wife, even though everything she did was perfectly reasonable.

    She surely was. The main problem from my point of view was that even Walter was antagonist, people loved him (me included). For that reason she could be percieved as someone who annoyed the “hero” (=villan) they loved and stick her nose to things she wasn’t supposed to. It’s hard to love her character and hate Walter, but she surely was, like you said, voice of reason.

    Agree! Skylar was so naive and impulsive (giving money to Ted) but she came around late in the game and made an effort. Marie was naive and ignorant to pretty much everything around her but at least she tried. Hank though, he takes the cake. Hank was a jerk to his wife and underestimated everyone.

    I’m a huge James Spader fan and watch everything he does, but stopped watching The Blacklist after season three. Just could not stand her character. And I know Agnes was just a baby but my god, I just could not buy that Liz was that concerned about her. She was such a non-entity, the writers should have just written around the actress’s pregnancy. Hell, I don’t even remember her name off the top my head.

    Almost all the characters, except for Vic's wife, in The Shield are reprehensible. In Oz, except for Sister Peter Marie Reimondo, every character was evil. Both shows had fantastic casts, from the leads to the supporting cast. BTW, Oz is why you should never commit a crime. Avoiding Oz was the concept behind their advertising campaign to attract more viewers.

    Tony Soprano! Easily! I loved his character and loved the show, but the guy was a bad dude. I never found myself rooting for him in the same vein as Walter White. Tony was temperamental, vicious, greedy...basically he was a mobster. He cheated on his wife constantly, even AFTER got back with him after a split and after he was shot (whereupon he kinda looked at his family in a better light).

    I have just recently watched the whole show for the first time! It was freaking perfect in every way as written and discussed by fans and critics since 1999. And yes, he is a horrible man and I was searching all the time for "excuses" to root for him (adversaries were worst, his posse riddled with nutjobs, his mom...) but what he did to Chris was inexcusable and he deserved what had to come by the very end. (yes, that fade to black, to me, is a clear sign that he was shot to death) Watch the podcast by Imperioli and Schirripa!
