The Most Universally Despised TV Characters of All Time

Nikki and Paulo – Lost

Oh, so this couple just happened to be on the island the whole time? Yeah, alright. Super believable. When Nikki and Paulo were introduced in the third season of Lost, they stuck out from the other survivors like sore thumbs. Sawyer could barely remember their names, but Nikki and Paulo’s sudden introduction and pointless backstory made the pair impossible to forget—as the most despised characters on the show. Luckily, the showrunners killed them off by burying them alive. Thank goodness.
