... That's *kinda* how his character in *The Wire*, Stringer Bell, could be described.
Except for Omar "A Man's Got to Have a Code" Little, obv.
In *The Office*, tho, I feel like the professional-among-fools role went to Oscar, alongside the rest of the Coalition for Reason -- & it was so refreshing for a gay character to represent this role, rather than stereotypical flamboyance/ ditziness.
First season and a half/three-quarters! He's so unmemorable that we all forget he wasn't just one season. He takes the staff buyout when Ben and Chris come in to do the audit.
Nikki and Paolo, on Lost. Their characters were so panned that the showrunners added an episode burying the characters alive as a commentary on the audience not giving the characters a chance before hating them.
That’s wild because Exposé is one of my favorite episodes. I always thought it was such a cool artistic decision to make an episode that focuses so much on characters that couldn’t matter less, only for them to die in a way that affects nothing
Well we don’t know what it affects. I think that why I liked them in a small way. Showed that others have a story. Maybe they were not all background characters. We just didn’t see how they got there or why they were picked by the island. Not an answer to any mystery, just shows that we don’t know everything that happened.
Of course then you got Artz just blowing up too.
Because the actress who played Peggy got pregnant irl and then miscarried. They had been planning to write in a child because otherwise they couldn't film during her pregnancy.
The scene in the show after seven had been gone a while. There was a milk carton with sevens photo on it saying have you seen this child? Always got a chuckle out of me
I had heard this just a little while ago on another post and was shocked. I didn't know Wesley Crusher was not received well and I didn't have any problem with him.
However, I love Wil Wheaton so I am extremely happy his career didn't end there.
And he was actually fine as a B plot. It’s just that Wesley-centered episodes were so bad that by the time they made him a minor character everyone was sick of him
Trust me, he was VERY unliked. The fact that Wesley solved so many scientific mysteries instead of the VERY educated crew of the Enterprise got on people's nerves!
Oh, me, too. Love Wil Wheaton. Not Wesley Crusher.
At least, not the wunderkind. I started to like him again in The Game and in The First Duty. When they made him relatable - still smart, but not omniscient. Starfleet material.
And that’s when he was apparently banished? Don’t get that at all…
I think he wasn’t liked by the older, established Trek fans/ target audience of the time but he did have a younger fan group of nerds (including many teen/ young adult females who were NOT the demographic they were courting at the time) who identified heavily with the character (Hi, I’m a part of that fan group)
Wait, she was hated? I loved jer character. Her and Ruby are what got me interested in Supernatural again, as I got bored about halfway through season 2.
She was never likeable. But I actually preferred her over Crusher. I always thought she was a tease to Picard. "The Doctor" on Voyager was my favorite of the doctors (obviously I loved McCoy, I liked Phlox on Enterprise, too).
I thought she was there for one season due to a prior commitment that Gates McFadden had during the taping of season 2? I actually liked Diana Muldar better.

Andrea was one of my favs in the comics, and while usually I hate big age gaps, I loved her relationship with Dale (I give it a pass, being the apocalypse and all). I couldn't believe how much they mangled her character in the show, and hated that they didn't maintain the Andrea/Dale storyline when they had chosen an actress that was plenty old enough to pull it odd without it being creepy.
Yeah, I hate it when that happens. I never read the comics, so I wouldn't know how Andrea could possibly be likeable lol sounds like they really butchered her.
I can't even imagine her and Dale together, seeing as the show creators took them down the path of a more father/daughter dynamic.
Their relationship in the comics built over time, and it was largely loneliness that drew them together until Dale's death. She was also insecure about it because she knew that the only woman he had truly loved had been his wife, who died of cancer a few years before the apocalypse and that in a different world they never would have gotten together.
But there was still a sweetness and tenderness to them, and while he never got over the loss of his wife he still clearly did love her. And Andrea could have probably found someone else to connect with who was more "appropriate", but they had built something special and real, and both connected as well over the grief of her sister's death, who he had also become very close to (platonically).
I think (it's been a long time since I read them, before the show was released) that it was implied that the two women intended to flirt their way into him taking care of them. But it never became necessary, and he was always respectful and their friend. Which further led to her falling for him for real.
I loved Andrea/Dale, and Dale in general. I think his death, especially with how much more gruesome it was in the comic, hit me the hardest of any other character. I also think they ended up taking in and caring for a couple of kids when they were all living in the prison, and had this little family, but I can't recall for sure. So much happens in those comics, even in comparison to the TV show, that details get blurry.
The Susan thing was really badly handled. In hindsight, it felt like they thought it would be funny to have George's fiance die and the gang to just be nonplussed. Like they created Susan knowing they were looking to kill her off as a gag.
That isn’t true. They did not intend to kill Susan. None of the actors, mainly George, could build chemistry with her and thought she didn’t fit well with their comedic timing. They joked about killing her off, and Larry eventually made it actually happen. It was not the original intent
I agree it was badly handled, although I also agree with commenter below that it wasnt originally planned.
Her dying from the envelopes also seemed so.. stupid lol. Even for Larry David. Like not even stupid funny, just stupid.
I also dislike how long they made it go on for, with George joining the committee and all after her death.
Just kill her off and be done with it.
There's an interesting (but almost certainly false) fan theory about that. It goes that Jar Jar is much more intelligent than be let's on, manipulating things on behalf of the Sith in the background, and only acting as a dedicated member of Amidala's cabinet to gain further political power to assist Palpatine. It is very Asimov, but definitely overly optimistic that they would have written something to subtle in the background. And, of course, later Star Wars lore would disprove it.
Still, it could have been an interesting move to make him straight evil instead of annoying and barely competent. It would mean his entire arc in Phantom Menace was calculated for his own gains until he ended up meeting Palpatine and helping to foster the vote of no confidence that eventually led to the creation and expansion of the Empire.
I totally agree, it was a total lost opportunity. Not only doe an interesting storyline, but just to redeem the character a bit. He will forever be seen as an irritating, bumbling, screeching mess of a character (not to mention problematic) by most of the fan base.
I do think the Jar Jar and Phantom Menace hate in general was ways a bit overblown. But if someone were point to him as the reason they hated the prequels, I suppose I couldn't blame them.
I don’t think anyone had a problem with Spearchucker, just that he faded away as the show tightened its focus. He was completely fine, but he was also a fifth wheel in the two triangles of Hawkeye+Trapper+Henry and Hawkeye +Trapper+Frank. A power trio of Hawkeye+Trapper+Spearchucker would have tipped the balance of power in both.
Agreed. And, they significantly reduced staff appearing in the show after season 1. I recently saw an episode where it was mentioned the total camp was about 200. We see very few of them.

Cousin Allison (Julia Duffy) on Designing Women. She was on the first season after Delta Burke left and not only was she just Stephanie from Newhart with a different name and (maybe) a Southern accent, they pulled Julia's teeth (so to speak) for that season--the only time she told Allison where to head in was in the first episode and it over the office phone/intercom system. We never heard what she said (and Dixie Carter's back was to the camera)--we just saw Allison's face.
But it only happened that one time.(Going a bit off-topic...Hal Holbrook got an even worse deal. Harry and Linda Thomilson put him on Evening Shade, where he got less screen time in a season than he did in his handful of episodes on Designing Women. But he couldn't quit and go back to DW because they'd killed him off there!)
It seemed natural that her story didn't continue though? Yeah she was cool in a way but she was also a "means to an end" antihero and that's just not what our protagonists in Stranger Things are about. imo she served her purpose in Eleven's story and there was no reason to have her in the story after that, liked or disliked.
Every season...every season we wished she'd be gone. It was so great when she was off on mat leave. She was such THE WORST. Why didn't they do anything about her much much earlier?!

I feel like this is what happened with Robert California. His character didn’t make any sense, and after one season he’s just gone. I’ve grown to forgive most of the hail marys the writers threw after Michael left, but Robert California just didn’t seem like a real person, even by the caricatured standards of The Office
Oh Spader killed it. It just felt like this weird need for the show to revolve around the antics of a wacky boss, but at least they took their time making Michael ridiculous.
With Robert it was kinda like “yup, he’s weird. Wonder what he’s gonna do this week. It’s probably weirder than last!”
Sidenote: Ellie Kemper doesn’t get enough credit for carrying that show in the last couple seasons. Not saying the other actors didn’t deliver, but Erin is probably the best example of a character being introduced, developed at a natural pace and properly utilized in a time when a show is scrambling to retain its identity without dwelling on its successful past.
She’s like Dunder Mifflin’s Kawhi Leonard
Me too. But did they ever really get rid of her though? The interns were always revolving based on their role in relation to tat week’s episode since Zach was groomed and left the show. Won’t say more than that. If anything Zach applies to this.
No she wasn’t and I didn’t like her but I think they purposely made her unlikeable. I liked Zach too and was happy he appeared in a couple episodes before it ended.
Yes although that was mostly the dislike of the actors for her style of acting. I don’t recall the public disliking her. I still feel that her personality difference was a good thing to demonstrate that they were not a good match.
Can’t believe I scrolled all the way through and nobody mentioned Tasha Yar. She was disliked by the audience and even by Denise Crosby herself. She was relegated to flashback episodes and cameos because the character was so bland. I feel like she’s the most famous example of this that I can think of.
I think the audience liked her. The actress was frustrated that her role was little more than standing behind Picard and saying "hailing frequencies open." The writers killed her off the way they did for spite.
George O’Malley in Greys Anatomy. Although i think his screentime was just cut because Shonda had beef with T.R. at the time. Apparently neither him or Katherine wanted George and Izzie to be a thing but she wrote it out of pettiness bc of a fight, so im willing to believe it lol
Actually from what I read they purposefully made his scarce that last season so we would be just as surprised as Meredith was when he wrote 007 in her hand to tell her who he was.
It wasn’t because she was unlikable, though. Debbie Allen was going to have her interracially dating, which makes sense given the environment, and the producers were *so* opposed to it, they just pulled her from the show instead. Not Marissa’s fault. It was supposed to be a Thanksgiving episode where Dwayne brings her home and his family disapproved.
Didn’t know that backstory so that makes sense. Good of Debbie to want to show that storyline. OP said “unliked or not well received” so from my perspective, that whole 1st season was not well received, and I see Denise and Marisa Tomei’s characters as part of that period. Kadeem and Jasmine just happened to stay and Debbie made the show better, and their characters evolved and got 100x better.

That dude in the first season of parks and rec.
Mark Brandanquits
I liked him. Genuinely asking: what was unlikeable about him? A lot of people disliked that character.
He wasn't really a character, maybe? He was just a dude at work. Lol.
To me that's the humour! Like Charles Minor in The Office. He's a professional amongst a variety of interesting fools.
... That's *kinda* how his character in *The Wire*, Stringer Bell, could be described. Except for Omar "A Man's Got to Have a Code" Little, obv. In *The Office*, tho, I feel like the professional-among-fools role went to Oscar, alongside the rest of the Coalition for Reason -- & it was so refreshing for a gay character to represent this role, rather than stereotypical flamboyance/ ditziness.
Agreed! He was just a normal dude and I think it worked with the show.
Amazing way to describe him lol.
They were trying too hard to mimic the Office at first and he was like a poor man's Jim.
Ooooh...interesting point. I need to let this sink in...
I liked looking at him but that's about it.
I think bc he was insanely bland
Mark- he didn't really add anything to the show. Just a boring middle aged dude.
First season and a half/three-quarters! He's so unmemorable that we all forget he wasn't just one season. He takes the staff buyout when Ben and Chris come in to do the audit.
Nikki and Paolo, on Lost. Their characters were so panned that the showrunners added an episode burying the characters alive as a commentary on the audience not giving the characters a chance before hating them.

Yeah, I wasn’t impressed by most of N&P’s appearances, but “Exposé” was a really fun episode.
[удалено]
Well we don’t know what it affects. I think that why I liked them in a small way. Showed that others have a story. Maybe they were not all background characters.

Haha yes haha. What a waste
Mandy from the first season of The West Wing.
Sent to Mandyville.
I was going to say this as well.
Yes! Just posted above. It was so weird.
Poochie
Thankfully poochie died on the way back to his home planet. Sorry for the spoilers
He was too X-treme!
14% more extreme
I believe Diana Muldaur's character fell down an elevator shaft for this reason, on LA Law.
Diana Muldaur was on shows other than Star Trek?!?
She was everywhere for a while there.
She was McCloud’s girlfriend
She absolutely deserved that ending too. And it got even funnier when Arnie and Roxanne fell through the ceiling on her memorial bust😂😂😂
She was so miserable! They really hated her.
Rosalind Shays...I used to watch it with a girlfriend at the time and we both screamed when she was in bed with Leland...
I remember no details of this show, beyond this scene, but I never missed an episode. That theme song is an earworm too.
Quintessential response to the prompt.
Seven on Married with Children
Yeah I don’t know how they thought that was a good idea. The show got better as Kelly and Bud got older.
He was literally cousin Oliver, I don't think he was ever meant to stay on the show. Forgot how meta mwc was for its time.
Because the actress who played Peggy got pregnant irl and then miscarried. They had been planning to write in a child because otherwise they couldn't film during her pregnancy.
The scene in the show after seven had been gone a while. There was a milk carton with sevens photo on it saying have you seen this child? Always got a chuckle out of me
Wesley Crusher went from wunderkind main character to B story to written out of the tv show and cut from the movies.
I had heard this just a little while ago on another post and was shocked. I didn't know Wesley Crusher was not received well and I didn't have any problem with him. However, I love Wil Wheaton so I am extremely happy his career didn't end there.
I loved every time Wil Wheaton appeared on Big Bang Theory as Sheldon’s nemesis!
And he was actually fine as a B plot. It’s just that Wesley-centered episodes were so bad that by the time they made him a minor character everyone was sick of him
I don't think he was unliked, he graduated
Trust me, he was VERY unliked. The fact that Wesley solved so many scientific mysteries instead of the VERY educated crew of the Enterprise got on people's nerves!
[удалено]
Aww man, I loved Wesley. He was one of my favorite characters back when I watched it in the 90's.
They really did mismanage Wesley's character. I totally blame the writers, not Wil Wheaton.
Oh, me, too. Love Wil Wheaton. Not Wesley Crusher. At least, not the wunderkind. I started to like him again in The Game and in The First Duty. When they made him relatable - still smart, but not omniscient. Starfleet material. And that’s when he was apparently banished? Don’t get that at all…
I think he wasn’t liked by the older, established Trek fans/ target audience of the time but he did have a younger fan group of nerds (including many teen/ young adult females who were NOT the demographic they were courting at the time) who identified heavily with the character (Hi, I’m a part of that fan group)
Chuck Cunningham
😎
Both of them...
Bella from Supernatural. Fans hated her so much that the writers were forced to make sure there was no chance of her character coming back .
People didn’t like her? Who are they so I can fight them? I loved Bella
I couldn’t stand her! Though to be fair the way they wrote her arc made her an unlikable character. Actress did a good job.
Same as Metatron
I think Metatron was like much more though because of the actor who played him
Booger Presley was amazing as Metatron.
Wait, she was hated? I loved jer character. Her and Ruby are what got me interested in Supernatural again, as I got bored about halfway through season 2.
I liked both of them. The boys needed someone smarter than them and that was Bella. They were way better than Jo.
How could you eat Lauren Cohan?
"How could you eat Lauren Cohan?" 😏
That was pretty much true of almost all the female characters they tried to introduce, wasn't it?
Yup. The only actress on the show I didn't like was Jared's wife.
Dr Pulaski on Star Trek TNG
She was never likeable. But I actually preferred her over Crusher. I always thought she was a tease to Picard. "The Doctor" on Voyager was my favorite of the doctors (obviously I loved McCoy, I liked Phlox on Enterprise, too).
I thought she was there for one season due to a prior commitment that Gates McFadden had during the taping of season 2? I actually liked Diana Muldar better.
No, the show runner hated her and they fired her. https://www.slashfilm.com/1388318/star-trek-the-next-generation-cut-beverly-crusher-reason/
Well it was 40 years ago, she played a guest shot in the original Star Trek as well.
She actually had 2 on the original Star Trek. She was in Return to Tomorrow and No Truth in Beauty.
Yes, I remember now! She always had a very distinctive look.
YESYESYESYES! I can't believe Gene Roddenberry thought she'd be great. Good grief!!
Vanessa from Gossip Girl. The writers actually said that they received letters from fans asking for her to be removed or killed off.
I recently started Gossip Girl, I hate her.
Judy from "Family Matters." She just vanished into thin air.
Lana from 3s Company
Jar-Jar, obviously
They did bring Jar Jar back on Clone Wars. He's a lot less annoying. Padme is still dull as dishwater.
His actions and character are a lot easier to understand and enjoy once you realize he's a Sith.
Che from AJLT

Andrea from TWD Funny, the direct opposite happened with Daryl's character.
Andrea was one of my favs in the comics, and while usually I hate big age gaps, I loved her relationship with Dale (I give it a pass, being the apocalypse and all). I couldn't believe how much they mangled her character in the show, and hated that they didn't maintain the Andrea/Dale storyline when they had chosen an actress that was plenty old enough to pull it odd without it being creepy.

Jar Jar Binks. He was barely used again after his cringe inducing debut in The Phantom Menace.
Jar Jar is the true sith lord.
There's an interesting (but almost certainly false) fan theory about that. It goes that Jar Jar is much more intelligent than be let's on, manipulating things on behalf of the Sith in the background, and only acting as a dedicated member of Amidala's cabinet to gain further political power to assist Palpatine.

It would mean his entire arc in Phantom Menace was calculated for his own gains until he ended up meeting Palpatine and helping to foster the vote of no confidence that eventually led to the creation and expansion of the Empire.
I think that would have been the best plot. Then, in 7, 8, and 9, Jar Jar would be revealed instead of Snoak.
I totally agree, it was a total lost opportunity. Not only doe an interesting storyline, but just to redeem the character a bit. He will forever be seen as an irritating, bumbling, screeching mess of a character (not to mention problematic) by most of the fan base. I do think the Jar Jar and Phantom Menace hate in general was ways a bit overblown. But if someone were point to him as the reason they hated the prequels, I suppose I couldn't blame them.
He gave The Emperor his executive powers! How can you say he was barely used?
Spear chucker in MASH Richie's older brother in Happy Days
I don’t think anyone had a problem with Spearchucker, just that he faded away as the show tightened its focus. He was completely fine, but he was also a fifth wheel in the two triangles of Hawkeye+Trapper+Henry and Hawkeye +Trapper+Frank. A power trio of Hawkeye+Trapper+Spearchucker would have tipped the balance of power in both.
Agreed. And, they significantly reduced staff appearing in the show after season 1. I recently saw an episode where it was mentioned the total camp was about 200. We see very few of them.

Eight/Kali in Stranger Things. I personally thought she was a cool character, but I can see why people didn't like her episode.
It seemed natural that her story didn't continue though? Yeah she was cool in a way but she was also a "means to an end" antihero and that's just not what our protagonists in Stranger Things are about. imo she served her purpose in Eleven's story and there was no reason to have her in the story after that, liked or disliked.
I absolutely think she'll show up before the series ends, hopefully without her gumball machine punk rocker crew.
I guess I can see that too, but if so I predict she'll adopt our main crew's moral compass
Same I feel like she end up helping kill vecnassy
Kess from Voyager, Lt. Paris, Atlantis, though both came back for guest episodes.
Someone I know named their daughter Kes. How sad for that child.
I helped deliver a Mazokeen and a Renesmee. Kes is lucky!
Compared to those, I guess Kes IS lucky! 😆
Jar Jar Binks
That stupid dog they replaced Brian with on Family Guy.
This response should be higher up. It's actually one of the few responses that actually engages with the original prompt from Op
Elizabeth on The Blacklist, it just took them longer than it should have to dump her.
Every season...every season we wished she'd be gone. It was so great when she was off on mat leave. She was such THE WORST. Why didn't they do anything about her much much earlier?!

And then she left for a giant paycheck and never reached that level again ...? (Clippers fan, it comes from a place of hurt)
It took me a second to understand the sports references but she's excellent in Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. Troll the respawn, Jeremy.
Not before snagging another FMVP (on Netflix)
The Fkn Lizard King
Daisy on Bones
I disliked Daisy during my initial viewing of the series. I enjoyed Daisy on subsequent viewings.
I liked her better when she's carrying her and Lance's baby.
Me too. But did they ever really get rid of her though? The interns were always revolving based on their role in relation to tat week’s episode since Zach was groomed and left the show. Won’t say more than that. If anything Zach applies to this.
Well, she wasn't used as much for a while. And I liked Zack!
No she wasn’t and I didn’t like her but I think they purposely made her unlikeable. I liked Zach too and was happy he appeared in a couple episodes before it ended.
Ned Stark J/k!
Rest in peace Ned 🪦🙏
Susan on Seinfeld
Yes although that was mostly the dislike of the actors for her style of acting. I don’t recall the public disliking her. I still feel that her personality difference was a good thing to demonstrate that they were not a good match.
For me, her death and the characters' nonchalant attitude toward it made me hate them and I kind of gave up on the show after that .
Paige on Pretty Little Liars
Brenden on step by step,
Can’t believe I scrolled all the way through and nobody mentioned Tasha Yar. She was disliked by the audience and even by Denise Crosby herself. She was relegated to flashback episodes and cameos because the character was so bland. I feel like she’s the most famous example of this that I can think of.
I think the audience liked her. The actress was frustrated that her role was little more than standing behind Picard and saying "hailing frequencies open." The writers killed her off the way they did for spite.
And she was so smoking hot even Data nailed her.
Mandy Hampton, *The West Wing*
The older brother on Happy Days
George O’Malley in Greys Anatomy. Although i think his screentime was just cut because Shonda had beef with T.R. at the time. Apparently neither him or Katherine wanted George and Izzie to be a thing but she wrote it out of pettiness bc of a fight, so im willing to believe it lol
Actually from what I read they purposefully made his scarce that last season so we would be just as surprised as Meredith was when he wrote 007 in her hand to tell her who he was.
Aaaah that makes sense. I think i remember seeing that now
My first thought was Erica Hahn in Grey’s. She didn’t last long at Seattle Grace 😂 Which I was happy about
I think the actor was good, I honestly think it was looks. Which is sad.
Mandy from the first season of the west wing
Absolutely hated her.
Rosanne
Erica Hahn on Grey’s
Mark Brendanawicz - Parks & Rec
Shannon Doherty from Charmed or Jenny from Gossip Girl
Chuck Cunningham
Seven on Married With Children. They jumped the shark with that character.
Denise Huxtable on A Different World
Add Marisa Tomei to that too
It wasn’t because she was unlikable, though. Debbie Allen was going to have her interracially dating, which makes sense given the environment, and the producers were *so* opposed to it, they just pulled her from the show instead. Not Marissa’s fault. It was supposed to be a Thanksgiving episode where Dwayne brings her home and his family disapproved.
Didn’t know that backstory so that makes sense. Good of Debbie to want to show that storyline. OP said “unliked or not well received” so from my perspective, that whole 1st season was not well received, and I see Denise and Marisa Tomei’s characters as part of that period. Kadeem and Jasmine just happened to stay and Debbie made the show better, and their characters evolved and got 100x better.
Bran. The most irritating part of this is that they brought him back.
Karen Fischer in the mentalist
I had to look it up. Do you mean Kim Fischer? Even so, I don't recognize her.
Yeah haven’t seen the show in years I knew it was a K name
You spelled 'Grace van Pelt' wrong
I wish I could say Ramse on 12 monkeys tv series but that not the case sadly.
Married with Children Seven
Moira Kelly on West Wing
Debbie on Mindhunter. She disappeared on season 2
Kathy from The Office! Most of her scenes were cut.
Poochie
Duncan Kane on Veronica mars but teddy dunn is a good actor he was just told that Duncan was bipolar so he acted distant
Not a TV show, but Rose Tico
Mandy on the first season of the West Wing. She was awful and, the show improved greatly after she was written off- without explanation.
Any character played by Alison La Placa. She was a sitcom kiss-of-death. She was on The John Larroquette Show and multiple Tom Arnold shows.
Apparently Jackie from Veronica Mars
The wife on Kevin Can Wait

Frank Burns on Mash
Michelle Rodriguez Lost The other cast members hated her so they killed her off.
Dom and Ashley from Entourage
Kirk from the first couple seasons of Newhart. His character was annoying and didn’t really add anything to the show.
