TV Fans Voted On Their Most Hated TV Character—And The Results Sparked Heated Debate

Cersei Lannister; Caillou; The Governor
HBO; PBS; AMC

While fans were mostly in agreement with the number one pick for Ranker's 'most hated TV character of all time' list, some of the results left people scratching their heads.

There are some TV characters that leave an indelible mark on our hearts—by filling it with a seething hatred hotter than a thousand suns.

Recently, website Ranker decided to catalog these awful personalities by polling the internet about their most loathed characters ever.


And while some of the results were predictable, universally-reviled garbage people, some of the other names that appeared on the list are downright weird.

The top spot went to Joffrey Baratheon, one of the truly awful central characters of HBO's Game of Thrones. Most agreed that his spot was well deserved.

But not everyone agreed—some felt the show's Ramsey Bolton, who came in at #2 on Ranker's list, should've bested Joffrey by a mile.

Others in the top 10 who made total sense to pretty much everyone were baddies like The Governor from The Walking Dead, yet another villain from Game of Thrones, Cersei Lannister, and every parent's nightmare, the whiny titular character from PBS's Caillou.

But others were downright befuddling. Like Skyler White, Walter White's long-suffering wife on Breaking Bad, who ranked higher than the same show's Todd Alquist, a literal Nazi who murders kids—and that's not even the worst thing he did.

This left people pretty indignant, since the only real justification for hating Skyler White more than Todd Alquist is good old-fashioned misogyny.

And the list only gets weirder the further down it you go, like the baby dinosaur from the obscure 90s sitcom Dinosaurs and, for whatever reason, Stephen Colbert, who isn't even a TV character but rather... Stephen Colbert.

People definitely had a lot of opinions about practically every entry on the list.



Anyway, Ranker's list has changed since the viral top 10 that circulated over the weekend, and it's arguably even weirder now. But at least there has been justice for Skyler White, who's fallen out of the top 10.

Trump Mocked For Bizarre Denial After Wall St. Journal Reports On His Creepy Birthday Note To Epstein

President Donald Trump was swiftly mocked after he denied he ever "wrote a picture" after The Wall Street Journal reported on a happy birthday letter to Jeffrey Epstein bearing Trump’s signature that included a drawing of a nude woman in sharpie pen.

The letter—reportedly sent by Trump at the request of Epstein’s associate Ghislaine Maxwell, who compiled the messages into a leather-bound book for Epstein's 50th birthday—dates back 16 years before Epstein was charged with child sex trafficking by the Justice Department in 2019, during Trump’s presidency.
