We all have favorite movies and shows. And we all have characters that we simply hate in those shows.

Some say it's Xander Harris from "Buffy, the Vampire Slayer" or Howard Wolowitz and "Raj from Big Bang Theory." Many believe it's the character of Metatron from "Supernatural."

One thing is for sure. No matter how much we love them or hate them, these characters bring dynamic and variety to the shows.

We all have some people we simply love to hate. Have you ever watched a movie so bad that it literally forced you to watch it till the end?

It's the same thing with tv and movie characters. Some people are so annoying that they literally have you pinned to the screen.

Of course, you can change the channel, but you don't. So you keep staring, and you keep hating them.

As if there are not enough things to hate in the real world. But because this is a fictional show, you can hate them without remorse or guilt.

Maybe that's the explanation…Redditors shared their least favorite characters from their favorite shows.

We have selected 20 of the most interesting posts, and we know you are going to like them. Or hate them...

Someone asked:

1. Metatron from Supernatural

Although it sounds a bit like a character from the Transformers franchise, Metatron (played by Curtis Armstrong) was an angel who recorded the Word of God In the series Supernatural. Then, because he was afraid that Archangels would steal it, he left Heaven and hid among Native American tribes and modern-day Americans.

2. Bran Stark

Does anyone like him?

3. Sauron from "The Lord of the Rings"

4. Aunt Gayle form "Bob's Burgers"

This animated show started airing on January 9, 2011. It focuses on the Belcher family (parents Bob and Linda and their three daughters Tina, Gene, and Louise), who own and run a hamburger place.

5. Sarah from "Ed, Edd n Eddy"

The animated series revolves around three preteen boys named Ed, Edd, and Eddy—collectively known as "the Eds."

6. Kai Winn from "Deep Space Nine."

Winn Adami is a major villain. She is a religious leader who is more interested in gathering wealth and power than serving the people.

We are so fortunate this happens only in series and movies, right?

7. Daisy from "Downton Abbey."

8. Elena from "The Vampire Diaries."

Elena was the former main female protagonist of The Vampire Diaries. She became a vampire despite never wanting to be one.

9. Sons of Anarchy seems to have many annoying characters:

10. Chuck from "Better Call Saul."

11. Brian from the "Family Guy" is just a douche now:

12. The Architect - you all know who he is...

13. Altough there is some dispute about the most annoying character in the show

14. Alpha from "The Walking Dead."

15. Howard Wolowitz. Some think he is funny, others think he is creepy

16. Raj didn't get good reviews either...

17. Zach Young from "Desperate Housewives."

18. He was a tragic character though...

19. So, why did you watch the first six seasons if you hate so many of the main characters?

20. Xander Harris from "Buffy, the Vampire Slayer."

A friend you would want your enemy to have

So, do you agree with our Redditors? We have to admit that some of these names really struck a nerve.

But it is okay, they are just fictional characters, so it’s okay to hate them. We will just ignore the fact that they remind us of our aunt, our nosy neighbor, or that jerk Tim from our office…
