21 Most Annoying TV Characters Ever


I never got what people found annoying about Dawn in season 5 really, I thought that Real Me was an awesome intro for her character, but I've seen so many people talking about not being able to stand her from the beginning. Honestly I think that some people just hated the whole concept of a 'cute younger character' being added, they were coming at the idea from what they'd seen in other tv shows, and so were already predisposed to find Dawn annoying?

Hmm how would people have corrected the writing of Dawn if you were working on the show, or did you think it was fine just the way it was? I might have changed her age and made her more obviously younger, instead of 14/15/16 over the course of the show. I always thought that was waaay to close to the age that Buffy had been at the start of the series to then make such a big deal about how young Dawn was and how she needed babysitting. If they wanted to write her as such a little sister then I think it would have been a better idea to at least introduce her as 12 or 13 years old, it's not like the other actors were playing their ages either.

Also I think season 5 was Dawn's best season because she was such an important of the main plot, so maybe they could have done more with her powers as the Key after season 5, instead of immediately making her a normal teenage girl?


Oh and I really think her screaming is overstated, she yelled 'get out' just twice. I'm not saying that it wasn't high-pitched and annoying, but from the way people talk you would think she had been screeching like that at least every 4-5 episodes!

I read that SMG had to ask permission to cut her hair in season 6. Either that or her cutting her hair has made them all rewrite Gone.

Totally off topic... lol

She probably had to do something with her hair after the show got picked up. It didn't really matter for season 1 but season 2 was major. IDK.

For the flashback at the swing, that was totally useless. They could have done soooooo much better with that.

And W/K, I agree. Willow turned gay for Tara and now she was gone and they HAD to give her another love interest so I guess they just plucked Kennedy in there and why not make her a potential for extra special? They couldn't make Willow be bi now, could they? That would have been fun I think. Some would not agree I think. I don't hate that Willow's gay, at all, but it would have been a cool twist anyway. Kennedy was... convenient... I haven't read the comics so I don't know if they stayed together long or not... I'm happy Willow found someone new but Kennedy?
