There’s always that one character that a TV show keeps telling us is a nice guy. Maybe they’re the show’s moral compass, or maybe they act as the opposite of a bad boy character, or maybe the show just wants us to see the next guy.
But no matter how much the other characters appreciate his qualities, sometimes the show just can’t hide that one of their male leads is downright inadequate. Here are 17 infuriating examples!
