There can be no contest about the most whiney bitchy "I wish I could bitch slap him with my brain" character.
Wesley Crusher.
Even his name makes me cringe. Hopefully the Borg can assimilate that little turd.
That felt good.
If I'm a bitch, then life just got interesting

I completely agree with all those of you who said that Connor was an irritating, whiny little S.O.B. I mean sure he was raised in a hell dimension by some bitter old man who kidnapped him at birth but that,my dear friends, is an opening for angst and anger NOT a cue to bee the a whinging little bastard.
Mind you as bad as Connor is he is not the worst. For my money its got to be that hamster faced assistant of the ninth and tenth incarnation of Dr Who, Rose Tyler.
I mean...my god the fact that they allowed the Doctor to travel through space and time with a freakin chav was bad enough, but on top of that the actress who played her (Billy Piper) gawked and yawped more than Julia Roberts and the character itself was frankly two dimensional.
Not one of Russel T Davies best ideas.

Connor takes the biscuit. Not the actors fault, the character was just poorly written and the arc lacked vision.
It also confined the Angel mythos to a very insular plane - which took some doing to write it out of.

it's threads like this that make the internet such a great place. :D
some of those posts are truly quite hilarious and i thank you all for the chuckle.
i hated connor. but not with the loathing displayed by others. i ended up hating cordelia as well, and i pretty much blame the show for her destruction.
also, wesley crusher irritated the snot out of me.
however.... my favourite show of all time produced the worst two f'ing characters of all time in shannara-land. buffy took a big nose-dive with the awful awful dear-god tell me it's a mistake, i can't believe you did this to me, introduction of DAWN and TARA. i've never wanted to slap someone for stuttering before, but i was sorely pressed to refrain from throwing objects at the television.
THEY RUINED MY FAVOURITE SHOW!!!!
and finally, Dawn was about to throw herself into a magical vortex of cast deletion, and what happens? buffy jumps instead. nooooooooooooo!!!!! the double horror!!
they finally killed off t-t-t-tara (i don't make fun of people who stutter, honestly, but her fake stutter was insufferable) but by then the damage was done.
ok ok ok, one caveat. my favourite two episodes of all time were "once more with feeling" and "tabula rasa" and tara was front and centre in both and was absolutely marvellous, in "once more with feeling" in particular.
so i officially nominate dawn for the whiney bitch award.

I liked Connor. I didn't care too much for Dawn. The worst actress was probably the woman who played Rileys wife Sam on Buffy.

I like Connor.
Think about what he went through! He was a totally believable character. When I think about it, I don't remember ever being annoyed with him!

I tolerated Conner until he participated in the murder of an innocent. I could excuse the rest, but this was something even HOltz would have objected to.
However, he has become a useful non-role model. I am watching Buffy and Angel with a friend and her 13-year-old boy. WHenever the boy gets in trouble I can say, "Hey, remember when Conner did xxxx? Well..."

but he didn't really "participate", did he? Cordy or should I say Jasmine killed the poor girl, Conner didn't know what to do, he couldn't deal with the situation. I like to believe that he would'e freed the girl if Cordy wouldn't have come and killed her.

agreed....the second Darla showed up to Angel's crib pregnant.....it was the start of some really stupid storylines
shame S3 already had some actuall good things happening ...maybe if they focused on the conflict between Holtz and Angel instead of the contrived Vamp kid the second half of S3 would have worked out.
Also Darla's death was one of the LAMEST in tv history...one killing her was corny just based on the fact that she had already been killed (they revived) 3 other times also she was SUCH a great villian if she died it need to be in a showdown with Angel...not in his arms (pregnant come on) trying to be sympathetic
They only Connor episode I liked was at the VERY END of Seaosn5 (when everyone gets their memory back)
