** Will and Kurt to a lesser extent. Will has a tendency of becoming a colossal moron whenever the episode focuses on him, while Kurt has the power of never being wrong. Even his dad and stepmom's ''wedding'' had more to do with singing his praises than Burt and Carole's nuptials.
* It's rather sad that Lea Thompson became the least interesting character in her own vehicle, ''[[Caroline in The City]]''.
* ''[[ICarlyiCarly]]'': Carly and [[Miranda Cosgrove]] suffer from this, mostly by virtue of Carly usually playing the straight woman to [[Jerk Sue|Sam]] and [[Cloudcuckoolander|Spencer]]; with Sam and Freddie being part of the [[Slap Slap Kiss|Seddie]] ship, and Gibby the current [[Ensemble Darkhorse]], it appears in some fan forums that she is the least popular character. Carly gets accused by fan haters of being boring, a 'waste of space', and 'the worst thing about the show'.
** Tori, from sister show ''[[Victorious]]'', suffers this but in the opposite way. Instead of being boring, she's done things like kiss the two other main female characters' boyfriends, one of which caused them to break up, and caused Tori to [[Never Live It Down]] for the other. She also got stick for being the only person to get to sing on the show for quite a long time.
*** On the subject of ''[[Victorious]]'', go to pretty much ''any'' [[YouTube]] video with Ariana Grande, the actress who plays Cat, and half the comments are about how she's infinitely better than Tori.
