Forgot about this one. Really enjoyed Don't Trust the B____ in Apt 2B, but couldn't stand this character. He's clearly the reason the show was cancelled.

Agree 100%. I've been a loyal TWD viewer for ALL the seasons since day 1. Then Negan showed up and it was too much. I stopped about mid-way last season and i haven't really caught up to this season as of this post.

Match

Dr. Chi Park on House MD.

Norm de Plume

Andy on Family Ties. He didn't ruin the show, but he was so superfluous.

Jon2

Only see Storage Wars occasionally, but know who you're talking about. Find her amusing more than annoying.

Watch Lucifer religiously ( ), but didn't recognize who Helfer was until I googled her. Her character is annoying as all get out.

Before any pics were posted of Voyager characters, I read an article in which they (producers, writers, etc.) discussed the show and characters. They seriously thought Neelix would become Voyager's "breakout character", ala Spock and Data. As soon as I saw a pic of Neelix, I thought... they have a problem.

Thrush

She could take this title for 3 different shows. Prison Break, Walking Dead and The Colony.

AaronHernandez

I guess since I have never lived in the Northeast charecter's with voices like that and Fran Drescher are not grating. Janet and Monica/Ross's dad are easily my favorite recurring charecters. Every Janet episode is in my top tier of Friends episodes.

Why So Blu?

The kid that played Duchovney's long lost son in Californication. He was beyond annoying.

Michael Corvin

Good call. I had blocked that season from memory.

Defiant1

He is one of the main reasons why I stopped watching the show.

digidoh

The Vancome Lady and Ms. Swan on Mad TV.

I'm surprised we haven't had more cartoon characters listed. (Just Lisa Simpson, Scrappy Doo, and all but one of the characters on King of the Hill?)

I hate Big Nose on Pink Panther and Pals. When he was The Little Man in the original cartoons, he was most often a victim of the Panther's actions. Pink was usually oblivious to what a nuisance he (Pink) was.

But in Pals, Big Nose relishes being mean, sometimes without any personal benefit, other than making others miserable.

Michael Corvin

For animated I'd have to go with Woody Woodpecker. That.fucking.laugh.

JoeySeven

JeffTheAlpaca

Chris Kattan was not a character but when he was featured in a SNL sketch you knew it would be shit.

Noogie on Miami Vice and Izzy a honorable mention.

eXcentris

All these "wife/mother" characters which were and/or became annoying:

Katey Sagal in Sons of Anarchy.
Julie Benz, Dexter's wife.
Anna Gun, Walter White's wife in Breaking Bad.

I'm sure I'm missing some. I don't know, but perhaps all these female characters were written by men.

hdnmickey

Pretty much all the different "characters" that make up the Council of Wells.

Traxan

Leeta on DS9. Not that I object to Chase Masterson in a tight, boob-revealing outfit. But 90% of her dialogue was "Oh, Rom!" In a series defined by some very strong females (Jadzia, Kira, Kai Opaca, even Moogie), she was a joke.

Deadman31

My wife watches Modern Family so I hear that Sofia Vagara(sp?) person/character quite a bit. Easily one of most annoying of all time.

randian

Jack Moore (Oliver Queen's kid) on Arrow. I kept wanting to smack that self-absorbed twit.

Paff

I can't believe no one has mentioned Diane Chambers on Cheers.

Shelley Long quitting the show was the best thing for it, and had she not left I can't believe it would have lasted more than another year or two. Kirstie Alley as Rebecca gave the show a real kick in the pants (and allowed the writers to expand and explore the other characters more instead of the mostly Sam and Diane plots that really wore thin after 2-3 seasons).

brayzie

Steve Urkel.
Easily.

I grew up watching the show but it got to a point where it was just frustrating to watch. I know it was a show with robots and magic potions and yet it was totally unbelievable to me that Urkell could be so oblivious to how annoying and horrible he was to Carl and his family, and equally unbelievable that Carl would put up with it for all those years.

The mom from the Goldbergs is also pretty annoying. The episode where she thinks it's a good idea to be a teacher at her kids school and then sits in the middle of the cateria and screams at her kids "Schmoopies! Sit over here with mama!!" or something to that affect. Nobody's mom, no matter how clueless, would do that. She's a good character sometimes, but it gets to the point that my face scrunches up when watching her antics. Maybe that's why I stopped watching the show.

I really disliked Kimmy Gibbler.

Ronee Lawrence, Martin's girlfriend on Frasier. Punchlines you see coming from a mile a way, cheesy dialogue, and a horrible game show-like line delivery. I liked the actress in the Just Shoot Me, but here she was horrible.
Daphne's family was also annoying.

Nick Danger

Another vote for Lucy Ball. Not only was her character annoying and unfunny, but she played that character on one show after another for more than 20 years.

SteveA

Thomas Middleditch, in part because he's gotten continually more annoying on Silicon Valley, but primarily for those gawd-awful phone commercials, which have bled his supreme annoyingness over to his Silicon Valley character.

Paff

I don't know about that. If you're a regular viewer (or were one at one time), you'd see those pre-closing credits sequences where the most unbelievably or absurd aspect of the episode was actually based on Adam F. Goldberg's real life. Like when Beverly stayed overnight in the dorm with Erica on her first night in college earlier this season, that actually happened (to Adam...there is no Erica in real life). Or the borderline stalking answering machine messages Beverly left.
