You people are scaring me.....are there really characters up ahead who are more irritating than Eric Lang?

Only one character on DS has come close to driving me to stop drinking, and that's the Stokes girl. However, play even one note of "London Bridge," and I might involuntarily begin a diatribe about why duct tape and children make for such a perfect combination.

Well, Raineypark, I don't really mind most of the characters that have been mentioned here so far, not even Lang. I suppose it's a matter of what gets under your skin. ;) But, IMHO, once Adam completely falls under a certain other character's influence, he probably becomes the single most irratating character in the history of daytime tv! [lghy] And actually that's a shame because I do think this part of his storyline has a lot of interesting things going for it.

Some of my personal picks..
1. The second Dr. Woodard
2. Eric Lang
3. Roxanne
4. Hallie
5. Early David

The #2 Woodard was a bore, Lang was over the top, I just disliked the airheaded Roxanne and Hallie.  (I think I resented Hallie when I was a teen too because she was set up to portray the perfect ideal of a teen beauty in that day.)  :P   Personally, I don't think she could act her way out of a box.  The early David was a real BRAT.  Wanted to smack him upside the head the way he acted toward adults and pouted.  Yuck.  Ok, my 2 cents worth.  Dawn   :-*

MB....... if Eric Lang doesn't get under your skin, you must have the epidermis of an armadillo.  ::)

You know, there was always something about Cyrus, annoying though he might be, that--to me--made him a sympathetic, if not exactly likeable character. I always appreciated the fact that Chris Pennock finally got to play a good guy (more or less), which made it all the more effective during his subsequent manifestations of diverse temperaments. (How's that for avoiding a spoiler for folks who haven't yet seen future episodes?)

The first Willie! What a cheese ball!  ::) If Karlen hadn't taken over that part so quickly and mercifully I'd have given that character the bums rush right over widows hill as soon as he set foot on the property.



Ha! I'd forgotten about him!  I think Karlen might have single handedly saved the show from certain doom- just by replacing Willie #1!  In his handful of episodes he managed to spit out an unthinkable number of "shudder" lines.

Amanda Harris and PT Roxanne are two characters that I cannot stand.  

Oddly enough, Kathy Cody never bothered me, but Denise Nickerson's characters sometimes got on my nerves.

My top 10 annoying characters, ranking from 1-10, would be:
1 thru 10, inclusive:
Amanda Harris

Hallie Stokes would be a close 11th, and Sabrina Stuart is chasing after her with a short stick.

Oh good grief, Sabrina Stuart and her pathetic "Moon Poppy," remember that?  Seemed to me that she had been "sampling" some of that poppy before she finally gave it to Chris to see if it would "help" him. [roll3] Gotta go with you on that one.

SPOILER...

My most irritating character would definately be Amanda Harris. And the worst part was, once you thought she was gone, she came back as Olivia Corey! Also, I never liked any of the Roxannes; she was just so annoying. Another most irritating would be Vicky. I liked her at the beginning of the series, but now and in 1795, she just acted so dumb. Plus, her later storylines were boring (Ex. Jeff Clark). Just my two cents. :)

Geez, I love the show so much I forgot how many annoying characters there actually were.

I will try and go in storyline order.

1. 1st. Willie - he was just awful (creepy)
2. 2nd. Burke - Bad casting in my opinion.
3. Sabrina - She was just annoying and didn't Roger Davis play her annoying brother.
4. Aristede - Annoyed me, but I did think he added to the storylines.
5. The through the years little Hawkes and the early Jeb Hawkes played by Chris Pennock.
6. Roxanne - The 2nd. one really annoyed me.  

Those are my top picks, while there are a few others that weren't my favorites they didn't annoy me as much.
