With all of the female lead hate, I'm curious what people here think about this character:
Katie Nichols from Terriers. She plays a (somewhat) similar role in the story to Betty and Skyler, so does she get the same level of hate? Or is she (actual spoilers)
enough that she gets a pass?

This is the only correct answer. Fuck I hate her. How did she manage to stay alive for so long on this show?
It's time for another one from me.
Barney Stinson from How I Met Your Mother. I just feel like he's a little played out by now. He's also too cartoony and because of that he's not very interesting at all. I end up not caring about anything he has to say or what he goes through. I guess he does have some funny moments, but I'm just a little tired of him by now.

The fans. There was really nothing special about the character Chloe. She was just another CTU agent that lacked any and all social skills. But the show went crazy with killing characters off, and she was the only person that still had a connection to Jack. So they needed someone who would break CTU protocol by assisting Jack in the later seasons. If Tony had been around longer, it would have been him. Same with Chase. The burden just so happened to fall on her character. Jack & Chloe became the only consistent things from Season 3 onwards.

I would have agreed with you based on Season 3 and half of Season 4 alone
She became awesome from then on

This is why I think killing off George Mason in season 2 was a bad idea. He was the perfect foil for Jack, more official and by the book, but not totally blinded by protocol like Chappelle. Would have been interesting to see how he'd act in the later seasons.

Lucky for you they have actually been putting a lot of effort into developing his character.
Also, take it as you will, but he is the best written of the lot.

Skylar hate boggles my mind. Walt is a fucking monster who pushed her to the brink. I was cheering for her when she delivered the
line.
Jack and Kate on Lost are the most annoying characters ever. Horribly acted and written. Their backstory episodes were insufferable.
"I fucked Ted."

LMAO yes. I also don't find him the slightest bit relatable. He is a two dimensional flaming stereotype. Easily one of the worst characters currently on tv. Actually, you can say that about most of the Glee cast.Tron 2.0 said:
Because she is hilariously awesome and the best character on the show. They should have killed off Jack and made her the lead. Don't you also hate Laura Roslin? >_<Scullibundo said:

From the few episodes I got to see I don't remember her being bitchy though. Not like Skylar or Better but Skylar's situation was/is much more volatile.

I don't know who the vast majority of these characters are. Names of the show and character and why you think they're bad would be helpful.

And I'm not familiar with every one of these people, but in the cases of characters like Peggy from KoTH and Ziggy from The Wire, I also wouldn't put them in this category, since they're intentionally written to evoke those negative emotions/reactions out of you.

BlueTsunami said:
I'm guessing you probably didn't watch far enough to see where they'd be comparable. Not in terms of characterization, but they both make big problems for the protagonist.
Going back to Glee characters, Will is definitely the worst, but Quinn is terribly written. Her goals and personality are rewritten every time the writers decide to start a new storyline involving her.
This. I don't watch this show that often, but she is just an obvious assumption by a bunch of old people about what young people look and act like.dralla said:
And for some reason her character has a huge Wikipedia page.

I don't get how despicable or morally ambiguous female leads always get flak on the internet, when their male counterparts never get as much disdain, i mean not one person has posted vic mackey or don draper in this thread!brianjones said:
That said the responses in this thread don't seem to make the distinction between poorly written characters or characters that personally just annoy you, always a problem with these kind of threads.
Yeah i absolutely hate herc but i thought his character was pretty well-done, especially since I've known cops that are somewhat similar.Angry Fork said:

The majority of users here are definitely male so its no surprise that its easy to relate to a male role and their flaws versus a female that seems to just always be at odds with their partner.
he's really terribleUberTag said:
I mean I don't mind his personality that much, and he's actually funny every once in a while. I haven't watched much wrestling recently, but seriously every person who gets in the ring with him has a more exciting set of moves than Cena does. Every person.
Kurt from Glee. I mean, Glee is as bad as most American teen dramas in that I'm supposed to empathise with these rich, attractive, entitled turds. Kurt, however, is every offensive gay stereotype wrapped into one, turned up to 11 and unleashed on an already irritating show.
Ziggy from The Wire I found quite sympathetic, particularly when his motivations were revealed. He felt like the runt of the family, perpetually unloved, constantly just trying to be noticed. Also, he had a fat cock.
