Special:Badtitle/NS90:Talk:Complete Monster/Western Animation/"Examples" that should NOT be seen here.


 * Ixis Naugus from Sonic the Hedgehog - When the basis for his inclusion isn't anything he did (which was next to nothing) but just "the resident CM is afraid of him", then you know he doesn't qualify. In his one episode, he'd almost count as a Designated Villain!
 * The Trix from Winx Club - They've been shown to care for one another, and most of what they get up to doesn't go beyond standard villainy by the work's standards. They're simply tricksters, and being mean is not enough to qualify them.
 * Pirate from Exo Squad - Fails the heinous standard, having been listed only for trying to kill a good guy, which is standard villainy.
 * Soto from Ice Age - His actions don't go beyond standard villainy apart from one truly heinous crime, and is motivated by revenge for family he'd lost to human hunters.
 * Drake from The Pebble And The Penguin - His crimes include kidnapping, threats to do harm, and attempts to kill the good guys. Fairly standard villainy for animated villains. His rape-y moments with Marina might push him towards possibly a YMMV example, but even then it's more Gaston level than Frollo level.
 * Eric Cartman from South Park - If he ever crosses the line into this trope, he's always back out of it by the next episode due to Negative Continuity. He's also usually Played for Laughs, and actually has shown altruistic, redeeming features from time to time.
 * Chester V. from Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs 2 - Has no redeeming features and goes over the Moral Event Horizon, but his actions are insufficiently heinous by the standards of animated family films, he doesn't really darken the lighthearted tone and narrative of the film, he has no body count or successful crimes in his rap sheet, and his behavior is frequently Played for Laughs.
 * Mrs. Tweedy from Chicken Run - The reason her character and scenes are so dark in tone is because she's a spoof on Nazi Concentration Camp runners. In the actual context, she's just an unpleasant, greedy, emotionally abusive Jerkass of a farmer's wife who wants to kill chickens she doesn't understand are sapient or intelligent enough and make them into pies to sell for a profit in order to keep her livelihood going. Her character and actions are not nearly sufficiently heinous enough to qualify her as a CM.
 * Queen Victoria from The Pirates! In an Adventure with Scientists - If her actions were played seriously she'd definitely count, but she's largely played for Black Comedy.
 * Anyone from My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic who is not Tirek - Not Nightmare Moon (who was a Split Personality of Luna, who clearly reformed), not Discord (who was initially Chaotic Evil by nature, didn't pass the heinous standard, and ended up reforming and becoming a friend to the ponies), not Chrysalis (whose murder attempts were not particularly gruesome, is wanting to steal energy as nourishment for her subjects, and indicates that she's Made of Evil), not King Sombra (who perhaps was a CM in life but is currently a Generic Doomsday Villain force of nature with no moral agency and a low rap sheet of heinousness), not Sunset Shimmer (who showed a few positive qualities and reformed in the end, being Easily Forgiven by the cast), not the Dazzlings (who have some form of friendship bond with each other and aren't as heinous with their goal and powers as they could be), not Starlight Glimmer (who was a well meaning Knight Templar Anti-Villain who reformed), not Principal Cinch (who, while showing no redeeming features, has an incredibly small rap sheet), and not minor villains like the Wendigos, Garble, the Flim Flam Bros., Lightning Dust, Trixie, Gilda, or Diamond Tiara (who all are either redeemable or just plain fail the heinous standard).
 * Anyone from Spongebob Squarepants - Mr. Krabs, Plankton, and both Dennis and the Cyclops from The Movie got this label the most. Krabs became an extreme Jerkass due to Flanderization, but even now is totally Played for Laughs, not feared and hated by others, and has redeeming features showcased in some episodes. Plankton is an Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain with notable redeeming features whose Moral Event Horizon crossing in The Movie was still standard villainy. Dennis is never shown actually killing anyone, and he has Laughably Evil moments despite being a Knight of Cerebus. And the Cyclops? While what he caused to happen was sad, he himself had no character and was entirely Played for Laughs.
 * Anyone from Family Guy and American Dad - Since these are comedy shows with low standards and Negative Continuity, no one can qualify. In the former, even the one character not Played for Laughs, Jeff, was only guilty of doing things that other characters have done and Played for Laughs in the past and are actually less heinous than other actions still, so the series actually has no standards against what his actions constituted.
