how 'bout Nikki & Paulo-- that annoying couple from "Lost" that they added and then quickly had to write out because nobody liked them...
Any of the cast of Heroes that were added in the second season too.
Except Kristin Bell. She's hot enough to be worth while.
And they should have kept Sylar dead and figured out how to write in a new bad guy.

Good call on the "Heroes" additions, Guy. I hope the third season is better than the last one...

Yeah I'd agree with Guy, Nikki and Paolo were obnoxious. The writers killed them off to amuse the fans.
I totally agree with Piz in VM. I loved that show to death and I despised him.
Dawn annoyed me at first, but she grew on me as time went on. Buffy's failings as a show in the later season had more to do with Joss focusing elsewhere and letting others take over. IMO, of course!
Scrappy Doo! Now there was an annoying character.

Dee, I completely agree.. Dawn annoyed me at first.. but once buffy "died" in the wb series finale I stopped watching the show. So her character never really had a chance to grow on me.
I've only seen 20 minutes of the pilot and the second part of this season's finale of Lost, so I don't know all the characters who have come and gone. None of my friends watch the show either, so I had no idea about these two characters.

Ashley,
Sarah Michelle Gellar is not on the list. It's Michelle T. who played Dawn Summers.

i think that you are making a fool of your self because buffy the vampire slayer actor and the drake and josh actor of there little sister would not ruin a movie by all chances i reckon that they should be treated with respect and give them a fair chance you might end up liking them in there acting

what Drake & Josh actor? There is no mention of an actor on Drake and Josh. Where did you get that? No one is dis-respecting the actors. It's a list of "characters" that nearly ruined a TV show.
