The originalGame of Thronesseries finished in 2019, yet fans and critics alike still remember which of the show’s characters angered them the most. Hate for one character is so intense that he’s been named the most-hated TV character of all time; we’re, of course, referring to Joffrey Baratheon.
Even those who didn’t watch the series will still be aware that Joffrey was a cruel king (to be honest, he was cruel before that), having ordered the execution of Ned Stark while he forced Sansa to watch. That kind of behaviour is never going to win over the hearts of the audience, nor the friends they continuously bore with details about the show.
When two greats collide: watch theGame of Thronessword in action inElden Ring!
But the most hated character of all time is a big title. Yet, Joffrey wears the crown well. He had stiff competition from the likes of Ramsey Bolton (also fromGoT), and, interestingly, Skylar White fromBreaking Bad. Ranker’s top 12 hated TV characters is an eclectic list. Some might even call it “weird”.

Despite heated debates on Twitter over the accuracy of said list, one user, someone who’s never watchedGoT, said that they have a “hard time” believing anyone is “worse than Livia Soprano”, who ranked fourth. Well, we can assure you, Joffrey is a “smug little sh*t” who’s completely and utterly deserving of the top spot for this one.
