Samantha Jones – Sex and The City
Played by Kim Cattrall
While Samantha Jones did what she wanted, she probably made a terrible work colleague. She might have been a great worker and all, given her high position and success and all, yet there are a couple of things that would have definitely set her back.
Her passions for physical indulgences might keep her a little preoccupied at work, or worse…land in some hot water over harassment.
Dawn Summers - Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Played by Michelle Trachtenberg
In Dawn's defense, she did get dealt a bad hand. Relentlessly abandoned by everyone she loved, Dawn had issues. And at 14, she discovered that she had been living a complete lie. It was clear that poor Dawn could not get a break. While her character begged for sympathy, it was hard to give it.
Perhaps if she begged a little less, she could have been a little more tolerable. Sulky and whiny Dawn then developed a shoplifting habit. Perhaps it was a cry for help. Still, fans just sort of lost patience for her.
Ned Flanders - The Simpsons
Voiced by Harry Shearer
The bible-thumping Ned annoyed the heck out of Homer and a lot of fans. Starting out with a sort of 'cute' overly sunny outlook on life, Ned later got a little intense about his beliefs, often leading him to look down upon others who didn't share his values.
It's no surprise that Homer ended up writing the song “Everybody Hates Ned Flanders,” which, due to such overwhelming popularity, even earned a Primetime Emmy nomination for outstanding music and lyrics.
Ross Geller - Friends
Played by David Schwimmer
While the show's writers certainly intended for Ross to be a loveable nervous nerd, that wasn't quite the result. Ultimately, Ross just came off as whiny and self-pitying, who believed that he was entitled to anything he wanted.
Countless marriages and failed relationships, Ross just couldn't get it right. Eventually, he managed to get the wonderful Rachel, and we really just don't know how or why.
Dawson Leery - Dawson’s Creek
Played by James Van Der Beek
The Dawson Leery crying meme will be etched into our memories forever. Not only because it's just so deliciously ugly, but because it perfectly sums up Dawson's ongoing self-pitying behavior that was displayed for the entirety of the six-season show.
While an emotionally attuned soft boy with the chiseled face of a jock did reel in viewers, Dawson's whole thing just got a bit too much.
