The Most Universally Despised TV Characters of All Time

Dean Forester – Gilmore Girls

Hey, remember how Rory is the worst? Dean can join her in the ranks. Sure, it was annoying when he dumped Rory in season one because he couldn’t say “I love you,” but the kid was 16. Then Jess came along and Dean turned into a rage-filled idiot shell of his former self. Dean already deserved to be on this list for the way he treated Rory, but especially for how he treated Lindsay by sleeping with Rory after they were married. Ugh, Dean. Just… five seasons? Couldn’t he have packed his bags before 2005?
