Timothy's mother Phyllis in Sorry! for me.
Sitcom characters you love to hate
I hate her - but I just hate her. I don't particularly 'like to' in any way! I'll have to think about this...
Can we define terms of reference here?
Is it:
a) characters we are intended to think of as monsters?
b) characters who ruin otherwise good shows?
c) terrible characters in shows we hate anyway?
d) some other definition that hasn't occurred to me?
e) any of the above?
I auppose characters that are meant to be funny but just come across as horrid like Phyllis in Sorry!.
Some not so designed to be hated but I do, both the Vicar of Dibley and her soppy blonde friend who she did those painful finale joke scenes with. God I cringe thinking about them still. And Rodney's bird/wife in OFAH, Cassandra, I actually blamed her for the long slow decline in the show. Or was that Uncle Albert's fault? Yeah I never did warm to him either, a very irritating character, especially after the likeable Grandad.
I really don't like Pheobe offof Friends. Makes me want to punch kittens.
Bulldog in Frasier. I've never warmed to him. He's total BS.
Good calls on Friends and Frasier. Very annoying characters.
Howard and Marina from Last of the Summer Wine. They should be shot.
Pretty much every character in Phoenix Nights.

I think you've pre-empted the season finale.
