Who is a character you feel is overhated and despised too much ?

Skyler White. I didn't even know that she was hated quite a lot. I always thought she is actually the most sane person given the situation she's in.

In the 90s there was this purple dinosaur from a children’s TV show that everyone seemed to hate. I don’t know anything about him or why we were supposed to hate him. To know anything about him you would have to have watched a show for 3 year olds, so if you did that then you deserve to be annoyed by it. Right?

Shinji, from Evangelion.

He's 14. His mum is dead. His dad is a piece of shit and a manipulative bastard, who sees him as nothing but a pawn. "Emotionally traumatised" doesn't even start to describe him. He's pressured to pilot a mecha and if he fucks things up people will die, he knows that they will die, and that it'll be his fault.

And yet people expect him to be assertive or to not have meltdowns? Come the fucking on.

Satan

Jar Jar Binks. He's my favorite Sith

Wesley Crusher. I always liked him

Willie in Temple of Doom. So what if she wasn’t cut out for the big adventure! She liked her life in Shanghai- dresses, performing, champagne, and nightlife. She didn’t ask for any of what happened next!

Basically every character who's worst sin is just being kinda annoying

It makes no sense to me how an annoying person can catch so much more vitriol than a genuinely malicious person.

Like "sure he murders puppies as a casual past time, but at least he isn't a bother about it!"

Thanos; I can understand his reasoning, his solution doesn't favor anyone either and seemed painless.

Grandpa Joe, but not by much.

I was listening to a football podcast (they go off topic in the offseason because there isn't a lot to talk about), and they had a whole rant about how Pam Beasley is a monster.

Because she was friends with Jim while dating Roy. (Yeah him having feelings for her wasn't exactly a shocker, but it's different when it's you. And she shut him down clearly when he actually made a move.)

Because she did the art school thing, I guess?

Because she was sad when Jim was dating Karen. (She did genuinely try to be her friend despite that, and went to cry in a corner alone.)

And because there was tension when Jim did Athlead. (Which if you actually watch, was him biting her head off when she messed up with a video of a recital, and him instigating a couple other times, presumably because of the stress of the situation, while she was being run ragged as almost a single mother at home.)

And because apparently chasing your dreams going to New York to go to art school while in a relationship is the same as doing it when you're actually married and have kids. But she didn't bend over backward enough to support him I guess?

It's just really weird to me, and he's not the only one with that weird twist on the character. (No she's not perfect. Sitcoms are all characters who are kind of monsters. But her as the bad guy doesn't make sense.)

Nurse Ratchet. Lady was just trying to do her job.

Uncle Iroh
I know he's a genocidal war criminal, but he lost his son and traveled a long path of tea and paisho eventually cherishing and mentoring his nephew.

Uncle Ruckus
He's a simple man, tryin’ to make his way in the world. Life’s dealt him a tough hand, but he played it the best he could. He worked hard, respected the values he was raised with, and tries to bring a bit of order to this chaotic world. He ma be rough around the edges and may not make words so good, but he believes in tough love and speaking his mind.

Someone's gonna come in and say Skyler White and be wrong.

Not a character it's actually a woman but I shouldn't say who and for why. Ultimately she is in the wrong. But could have been prevented at least I think maybe idk
