"Game of Thrones." You either hate it or you love it; there’s no in between. If you’re like me, you love to watch the dramatics play out between the characters, especially if they involve evil, conniving moves. Here is a definitive list of all the characters we get pleasure out of hating.
1. Ramsey Bolton
For obvious reasons, Ramsey Bolton is by far one of the most hated characters on Thrones. From feeding his half-brother and stepmother to his hungry dogs to killing poor Rickon Stark, he is ruthless and evil. Thank god he’s dead.
2. Cersi Lannister
Although she seems to do everything for the love of her children, Cersi is conniving, manipulative and downright cruel. She’s pretty much inhumane to everyone and we all love to hate her.
3. Joffrey Baratheon
Joffrey was the most annoying character ever created on Thrones. We were all so happy to see him die.
4. Lysa Arryn
She’s downright insane and loves to see people get thrown down the moondoor. She was jealous of Catelyn and never got over Littlefinger not loving her. When Littlefinger pushed her out the moondoor, we all rejoiced.
5. Walder Frey
Creepy. Walder Frey was just plain creepy. Not to mention evil for turning on the Starks and being a crucial part of the Red Wedding. But Arya got her revenge and Walder Frey is finally dead.
6. Viserys Targaryen
Ugh. Viserys definitely took after his father, the Mad King. He was annoying and whiny, not to mention insane. We all fell more in love with Khal Drogo when he poured molten gold all over Viserys to kill him.
7. Craster
If you don’t remember Craster from the second and third seasons, you’re lucky. He was the creepy old man who married his daughters and fed his sons to the White Walkers. What a guy.
8. Ellaria Sand
Her murderous streak left us all heartbroken when innocent Myrcella Baratheon died. She’s the definition of a crazy woman when she and her sand snakes murder everyone of importance in Dorne.
9. The High Sparrow
When Cersi blew up the Sept with the High Sparrow inside, I cried tears of joy. The High Sparrow plagued our screens for too long. He made us do the impossible and feel sorry for Cersi when she had to walk naked through the streets.
After all is said and done, without these despicable characters would any of us still be watching?
