re: Characters who were not exactly villains, but you found them to be despicable.

Mike Stivic, and his real life counterpart, Rob Reiner.

Is this all media?

If so, I would submit Judicator Aldaris from Starcraft and David Oh (Zero) from the Metal Gear Series.

I'd also submit Gaius Baltar from Battlestar Galactica.

Pam Byrnes - Meet the Parents

Elaine

She's basically a selfish whore.

Scours NYC for the last of the Sponges and gobbles them up.

Exiled the Soup Nazi back to Argentina just because he wouldn't let her act like an arse in line, depriving all New Yorkers of that delicious soup.

She steals a neighbors dog and drops him off in the wild in upstate NY because she's missing her beauty sleep.

George spends a lot of money on his new hair and he likes it and girls like it but Elaine doesn't like it so she rips it off his head and throws it out the window. All about her.

She ditches her friends for life in an instant for another group of friends but when they wouldn't put up with her selfish behavior, she ditches them too.

Peterman buys a $29,000 piece of cake from the wedding of the Duke and Duuchess of Windsor and Elaine eats it because she needs something sweet right then.

She breaks up with Tony immediately after his rock climbing incident because it ruined his face.

If her co-workers complain about germs, she coughs all over their stuff...because it's all about her.

Because she's selfish, Elaine doesn't notice Babu's Visa application when she's collecting Jerry's mail and gets him deported back to Pakistan.

Her date/boyfriend is in a car accident but instead of rushing over to see if he's okay, Elaine buys Jujyfruits.

Runs Peterman Co. into the ground because she won't listen to anybody but herself.

She lies constantly about everything and they have to get her drunk to tell the truth about anything.

And she seems to either advertently or inadvertently mess up the other characters lives because of her selfishness.

In addition to the many excellent responses here, I will throw in Jill Taylor from Home Improvement.



Bitch could be a real ball-buster.

I got so pissed the first and only time I saw “the notebook”. The lead leaves her fiancé and it is supposed to be this great thing. I’ve always found that whole thing to be trashy.
