Carrie Bradshaw – Sex and the City
A lot people say Sex and the City’s protagonist is their favourite character, but she’s actually a terrible person.
Remember when she guilt tripped Charlotte into lending her money? Which she wouldn’t have needed if she didn’t spend all of her wages on shoes she couldn’t afford.
How about the time she sent Aidan round to Miranda’s when she was stuck naked – instead of being an actual best friend and going herself.
Basically, Carrie is clingy, whiney and self-centred, and she deserved everything she got from Big.
Ross Gellar – Friends
He’s often labelled the most intelligent of all the Friends, but Ross Gellar was sexist, homophobic and self-righteous.
Ross had a major problem with their manny, he didn’t want Rachel to get a job anywhere but in the coffee house and was forever correcting his friends on their grammar.
In the wise words of Monica, sometimes it’s who!
Danny Castellano – The Mindy Project
Dr Castellano is really, really cute, that’s undeniable, but he’s not a very nice person, is he?
He spent the first couple of seasons pining over Mindy relentlessly, but refused to accept that he could be attracted to a woman who isn’t stereotypically beautiful.
Danny is actually really horrible to Mindy at times and it never seems as though if he feels guilty for insulting her. He also implied he is basically settling with Mindy, which is so not cool.
Sharon Mitchell – EastEnders
There’s a few reasons why Sharon Mitchell is one of the most annoying people in Walford.
For some reason, she always sounds breathless and, quite frankly, sexually charged. She also failed to realise her equally annoying son went missing for like three months – and when he DID show up, she didn’t notice he had a new face.
Piper Chapman – Orange Is The New Black
When OITNB first started, we loved it and we loved Piper. But, three seasons later, we actually really want her to get the hell out of Litchfield.
Piper is annoyingly indecisive. Does she love Alex? Doesn’t she? Nobody knows – especially not Piper.
And, while we’re on the subject of Alex, Piper needs to stop blaming her for getting thrown in jail. Nobody made her become a drugs mule. If you can’t do the time, don’t to the crime.
Will McKenzie – The Inbetweeners
At school, everyone knew someone like Will. Pompous, snooty and snobby – there’s a reason people like him didn’t have many friends.
Most frustrating of all, Will could never be wrong. He just couldn’t accept he, the former private-schooled, briefcase w*nker, didn’t know absolutely everything.
Honestly, we don’t know how the other three put up with him.
Dot Cotton – EastEnders
You might think this is a weird one, but Dot isn’t as innocent as she seems.
The church-going OAP might regularly praise Jesus while reciting quotes from The Bible, but she drinks, smokes and she’s a terrible gossip. Which isn’t very Christian of her, is it?
Not to mention the fact she bought the fatal heroin which ultimately killed her son. And she’s an ex-jail bird.
Sabrina Spellman – Sabrina The Teenage Witch
This show basically taught kids what happens when you don’t listen to your elders. Because Sabrina NEVER did. Whatever her two aunts told her not to do, she did it.
It’s almost like she enjoyed nearly ruining her life and the lives of those around her on a daily basis. And don’t get us started on how she treated Harvey and Josh…
Sansa Stark – Game of Thrones
She might be a strong-headed, sword-wielding heroine, but Sansa’s actually really annoying.
Selfish and bratty, her behaviour ultimately led to the death of her pet wolf. As if that wasn’t bad enough, she then didn’t listen to her dad’s advice about her boyfriend (and parents are always right, see above), which got him killed.
Clara Oswald - Doctor Who
Clara is the perfect example of someone who doesn’t know how good she’s got it. She has a really nice boyfriend who she constantly lies to, and she’s pretty self-centred – the world has to revolved around her.
And she’s got the coolest boss – but she clearly doesn’t appreciate him, because she’s always questioning the Doctor’s decisions.
