Common from Silo (obviously horrible casting decision)

Paige from The Americans (particularly in the middle of the show when they ran out of cool spy storylines and turned it into a family drama)

Forest Whittaker from The Shield (this one is getting a lot of hate, but wow he was sooooo overacting… still a great storyline from a great show… just bad acting imo)

Scott from The Wire (the dumbest part of an otherwise almost flawless show, annoying actor too, but more the writing)

Dana from Homeland (ya, I don’t like teenage girl drama in the middle of an action show, shoot me)

Chuck from Better Call Saul (how anyone can defend this absolute waste of time allergic to electricity storyline is beyond me, like the actor, but just a complete waste of all of our time to make money from commercials until the show really got going)

The Priest from Deadwood (badly written and I can’t stand the guys voice, had little to do with any of the actual interesting storylines of the show and if he wasnt there no one would have noticed or complained)

(I mean this negatively, characters who generally were side characters who weren’t really part of the main story but we still spent a ton of time on them, or in other cases they may have just been annoying or portrayed badly)
