Who are some TV characters that you just really don't like.
Elaine Benes - Seinfeld
Penny - The big bang theory
Bernadette Rostenkowski - The big bang theory
Rachel Green - Friends
AJ - The Sopranos
Amy Santiago - Brooklyn 99
Andy Bernard - The office
Elaine Benes was hilarious. Seinfeld wouldn't have been anywhere near as good without her, since some of the funniest parts of the show involved her, like her overuse of exclamation points, her reaction to George's toupee, her dance scene, her exposed nipple Christmas card picture, and so on.
I can't think of many annoying TV characters, because if a show annoyed me I usually didn't watch it long enough to even remember the characters. There are some exceptions though (all of them that I can think of off the top of my head were interlopers):
Carol Baldwin (the version played by Kathleen Lloyd) - Magnum, P.I.
Fake Darrin Stevens - Bewitched
Coy and Vance Duke (AKA: fake Duke boys) - The Dukes of Hazzard
Andy Keaton - Family Ties
Scrappy-Doo - Scooby-Doo
If you don't mind me asking have you seen any of the cartoons or animated movies from the 80s with Scrappy Doo? The thing is he improved as a character in shows and movies where Fred and Velma (and sometimes Daphne) were not present. He served more purpose there than in the one he debuted in where he feels pointless.
As for the topic Barney the Dinosaur. I was always annoyed by his voice. I think Nostalgia Critic in his review of the Barney movie gives a good reason why he was annoying. He never shows any emotion other than happiness. Which is why he's annoying and didn't endure overtime compared to Sesame Street or Arthur.
The only ones with Scrappy-Doo that I ever saw were in the '80s. Starting around '84 or '85, when I was 9 or 10, Scooby-Doo cartoons were on every weekday at 4 on Channel 7 (ABC affiliate) for a few years. Originally they showed older ones and then Scrappy-Doo came along, which was wicked annoying.
shareThe main ones I am referring to are 13 ghosts of Scooby Doo (The first Scooby Doo cartoon with the premise of actual ghosts and monsters), Scooby Doo Meets the Boo Brothers, Scooby Doo and the Ghoul School, and Scooby Doo and the reluctant werewolf.
shareI don't know. I haven't watched Scooby-Doo cartoons since I was a kid in the '80s. I don't remember any specific titles.

Elmo from Sesame Street
Talk about marketing oversaturation. Even as an adult you couldn't go anywhere without reading or hearing about these annoying characters and seeing them featured on various products.
Thankfully Barney seems to have died out; I still see Elmo on occasion.
Elmo seemed to have replaced Grover which I thought was sad. Asides from colour they seem to look like the same species lol.
shareGeorge Cantstandya, Frank Furillo's wife,
shareAndrea from The Walking Dead was annoying too, an indecisive pain in the neck. Andrea in TWD comics was a tough girl and probably the best rifle shooter in the survivor’s camp, she was a level-headed fighter and fine companion.
shareYes. Lol
She made so many bad decisions it was like...are you fucking kidding me???
For me, the dumb, low IQ character, funny at first, can turn quite annoying.
Woody from Cheers
Edith from All in the Family
I liked Edith, she was a sweet and honest old gal, she even could get tough and put Archie in his place sometimes.
Michael ‘Meathead’ Stivic was marginally employed, a contrarian hippy pain in the ass AND he lived in his Father In Law’s home while screwing the man’s daughter under the family roof and being a total pest all the time.
Meathead was a whiny jerk, be a man and get a job to support your woman in your own apartment Meathead.
Agree about Meathead. Remember this: when he breaks out a board game called 'Group Therapy.' He just dissolves into a complete whiny childish jerk.
