Lane was my fave after Paris and Emily and they just really screwed over her character.

I was really disappointed the revival did not have more of Lane. She is the main charavter's best friend - she should have a larger role.

Rory is so self-centered that Lane being barely noticed kinda makes sense

What happened to Poussey will always make me mad. I hate-watched the season after that to see how they'd deal with the aftermath and then quit the show.

Other character who deserved better: Andrea in The Walking Dead (lbr a lot of people on that show lol but her demise was so OOC)

Agreed about Andrea! Where they took her character will always infuriate me.

IA about Andrea too. The hate she got (and Lori) was so OTT. It was always by dudebro fanboys too.

I haven't even watched the season where Poussey died or the others after that. I don't want to see that

Yeah, that was dark as fuck. Though you know they couldn't have a happy relationship on that show, lol. The characters were too selfish and awful.

Their picking on Jerry is so unnecessary and I hate how they did a 180 on Jerry's character on how he couldn't wait to be retired to get away from everybody but then he suddenly becomes a glutton for pain and goes back to work with them after he does so they can keep picking on him? Made no sense.

Tina Cohen-Chang, Glee--The writer's didn't even try to hide their contempt for employing her by giving her an appalling level of solos, and any storylines were either entirely dependent on her race or contradicted her shyness from earlier seasons by having her be OOC bossy

Yeah they seemed hella salty fans kept asking for more Tina so they wrote her like that on purpose so they'd stop.

Checked to make sure Tracy was on this list and once again, proven right. I wouldn't have been as angry about her ending had it not been for it to be a set-up for Ted and Robin getting back together, ugh. Poussey's death was what made me decide that catching up on OITNB wasn't worth it and I never watched the show past S1.
