Line 194:
* Burgermeister Meisterburger from ''[[Santa Claus is Comin' to Town]]'' is a lot goofier than most examples of this trope, but since he's a humorless adult obsessed with not letting the children of Sombertown have fun in a [[Christmas Special]], he still runs afoul of it. It's best exemplified when he gets so fed up with Kris sneaking toys to the children, that he has them all tossed into a roaring bonfire while the crying children are forced to watch. Being petty is one thing, but the Burgermeister definitely takes it to new heights.
* Gill from ''[[Kim Possible]]'' is this, though he also doubles as a scary swamp monster. He is a bully at his core that more or less bullies Ron for the fun of it. While he teased Ron about not wanting to swim in Lake Wannaweep, he shows no remorse when he discovers that it was polluted (the hints were there) and it turned people into mutants, which eventually happened to him. (To put it in perspective, only prolonged exposure resulted in someone becoming a mutant, so he could have avoided it if he didn’t swim in it so much.) So he isn’t such a tragic monster. And he’s even worse in his second appearance.
* Princess Morebucks from ''[[The Powerpuff Girls]]''. While being a [[Spoiled Brat]] isn't enough to make fans detest a villain; that Trope could apply to [[Xiaolin Showdown|Jack Spicer]] and many other fan-favorite characters. Princess is unique in that it is her sole motivation, and has no redeamableredeemable qualities at all. No [[Freudian Excuse]], no [[Hidden Depths]], as Blossom puts it in the episode where she first appears, "you're notingnothing but a brat", and at that, one who never learns.
