The small screen is full of characters we loathe.
Every time he or she comes on screen, the joy we felt turning on the television suddenly evaporates.
Sometimes, the character is so unbearable, the show isn’t even worth watching anymore.

But why should fans be the ones who suffer?
Instead, why don’t we give these characters the pink slip and tell them to take a hike?!
Here are 19 TV Characters to get us started!
Who tops your list? Hit the comments and share your thoughts below!
Elizabeth Keen – The Blacklist
There have been times when we’ve been on Liz’s side, but her constant back-and-forth between good and bad hasn’t helped her cause. After more than half a season of her making Red’s life miserable in her pursuit of his true identity, she made a complete about-face and put those desires behind her. Maddening doesn’t even begin to describe how we feel about her. It’s more like throwing things at the TV every time she’s on the screen!. It’s time for her to leave our lives…and Red’s forever.
Kate Pearson – This is Us
If we could add a new dictionary definition for the word “selfish,” our entry would be simple: Kate Pearson. There is no more despicable character on television than Kate who always seems to turn any situation into a pity party for herself. Take a hike, Kate, and don’t let the door hit you in the ass.
Jamal Lyon – Empire
For obvious reasons, it’s time for Jamal to go. There’s nothing worse than mind-blowing offscreen drama to ruin a show for fans. Thanks, Jamal, but later.
Castiel – Supernatural
Castiel used to have a purpose on Supernatural. Now, he’s only used as a comedic device to break the tension in the Winchester brothers’ lives. We love you, Cas, but you’ve outlasted your welcome.
Chloe Decker – Lucifer
Chloe needs some sense slapped into her. We get that she’s a cop who likes to deal in facts and thinks logically, but to continually ignore the truth before you gets old really fast. We’re happy Lucifer got another life on Netflix, but if Chloe doesn’t shape up…she needs to ship out.
Sansa Stark – Game of Thrones
Sansa has never been one of our favorite characters, but even as she straightened out after some horrendous experiences, her whiny arrogance has grated on our nerves. If there’s one character we would love to see take a long trip to nowhere, it’s Sansa.
Dean Boland – Good Girls
Being a shady car salesman should be enough to make us want to slam the door in Dean’s face, but the fact that he’s so clueless about everything makes him even worse. He lives in his own little world, and we think he needs to pack up and go live there forever — away from all of us!
Delilah Dixon – A Million Little Things
From experience, we know that pregnancy sometimes makes you stupid, but we have a feeling Delilah was just born this way. How someone like her has survived this long is anyone’s guess, but there’s a hole in her psyche that may never be repaired. She’s either as completely helpless as she seems or it’s all one big play for control. Doesn’t matter. Somebody needs to buy her a one-way ticket outta here!
Dann – The Orville
Why does Dann even exist in The Orville’s world? His awkward humor is painful at best and insulting at worst. He may be a throwback to MacFarlane’s roots in Family Guy and American Dad comedy but he’s totally out of place in this world and needs to hop on a spaceship back to…anywhere.
Grace Stone – Manifest
What is wrong with Grace? About a million things. Like others on this list, Grace has a fascination with herself much to the detriment of everyone around her. She needs to take a step back and take serious stock of herself, but we know that won’t be happening any time soon which is why we wish she would take a long hike deep into woods and get lost.
Andy Herrera – Station 19
She’s supposed to be a badass, but she’s just a bad person. Andy is another selfish, spoiled brat who thinks the world revolves around her. She’s unstable, unlikeable, and the sooner she goes away, the happier we’ll be!
Frankie – Animal Kingdom
Frankie is like that person who hangs around hoping you’ll accept her into your group even though no one can stand her. She serves no purpose other than being a love interest for Craig, and even if she thinks she can be a benefit to the family, there’s just something off about her. Craig needs to dump her on the side of the road so she can hitchhike her way out of town, pronto!
Father Blackwood – The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina
Overly inflated sense of self-worth is only part of what defines this misogynistic creep. HIs attitudes towards everyone around him, especially women make him incurably loathsome. Madam Satan needs to work her magic and make him disappear!
Jonathan – Shadowhunters
Just looking at this guy makes our blood boil! Why is he so creepy? Why is he always in the way? There are no answers as to why this character had to come into our world and mess everything up, but the sooner he vanishes, the happier we’ll be!
Dana Booker – PLL: The Perfectionists
For a show so new (well, kinda) it’s amazing how quickly one character stands out as the one we already dislike with a passion. Dana may be skilled at her job, but her know-it-all attitude is the worst. She’s already a pest and her true intentions verge on shady, so why is she even around? Please leave. Now!
Evelyn Evernever – Riverdale
What the hell ever, Evernever. We bet she spent ages coming up with her mundane questions for Betty because, you know, whether a person bites their nails or not is of the utmost importance when joining a creepy cult. But besides that, she serves no purpose except driving us mad with her banality. So, please, Evelyn Evernever, pack up your bags and find a new home somewhere far away from Riverdale.
Cristal – Dynasty
OG Cristal. New Cristal. Oh, the twists and turns. Yet, here we are with a character who adds nothing to the show. Deceitful and strange with a yawn-inducing personality, she is the reason the fast forward on DVRs were invented. As an old song goes, “Hit the road, Jack, and don’t you come back no more!” For all our sakes!
Rose – Jane the Virgin
This master of disguises takes too much pleasure in ruining other people’s lives. She’s been doing it far too long, and all we want is as happy an ending as possible for all the good gals and guys before the series ends. That means Rose needs to go out to pasture and meet a grisly end. Why? Because she deserves it for making our lives so miserable!
Ben – Good Trouble
Who says men don’t like to gossip? It’s fun to watch except when it’s a character like Ben who passes judgment without taking a look in the mirror first. Also, who wants a friend who spills secrets? Is nothing sacred? It’s irksome to say the least, and it’s high time for Ben to take his leave and leave everyone alone!
