The Most Hated Fictional Characters Of 2024

Who is the most hated character from 2024 between movies, TV, and fiction generally? Maybe it's a murderous villain you're supposed to hate, like Longlegs, and the writers, directors, and actors are doing their jobs wickedly well. On the other hand, maybe it's the star character, like the titular Emily of Emily in Paris, who is endlessly irksome despite being the protagonist. Whether intentional or not, these were the fictional characters we hate-watched in movies and TV shows throughout the year.

There's no shame or judgement here for voting up a typically beloved character. (The fact that they're represented here suggests you're not alone.) One needn't even have a rational explanation for their dislike. Hot takes are welcome; let's honestly determine which character earned the most ill will from viewers in 2024.
