Dawn Summers is 100% accurate. Seriously, 1. She kept getting kidnapped; You know who else does. Princesses named Leia, Zelda and Peach. That's how useful Dawn was. "I'm sorry Buffy, but your sister is in another castle" 2. served as an plot device that had no real reason for existing; Okay, Dawn was actually a mystical object known as "the Key," whose sole purpose was to temporary merge the Heavens, Earth and the Hells. Wait, why would anyone construct such a device? What purpose would it serve? And why would it be given to a group of Monks who named themselves after a Philistine Sea God? Heck who would want it? Wait, the answer is a Ancient Hell Goddess named Glory who was banished to Earth in the mid-1970s. Yeah, Buffy never was really good on Backstory. Well, except for Angel's whole "I killed a guy 150 years ago, and I feel bad about it." 3. and had no use or powers. Look, Buffy had losts of guys who could get kidnapped. But they all did something. Giles did research. Willow did magic. Xander got fat and could build stuff. Anya had one liners, demon knowlege and ran the store. Dawn did nothing, besides scream, get kidnapped, and steal things.
The list ignored Cousin Pam from the Cosby show, the oft forgotten last addition to the small tribe living in the Cosby townhouse by the last season.

I have never watched any of those shows except Scooby Doo and The Brady Bunch. This list was totally disappointing to me.

I'm gonna have to agree with Scrappy Doo and The Great Gazoo. Never saw anything good in them. Maybe a little in Gazoo, but nothing in Scrappy. Trying to act all tough.
You know what would've been funny? If one of the ghosts would've punted Scrappy Doo away from him, letting the rest of the crew watch him fly.

The only show on the original list that I ever watched was Buffy. And I always thought that Tara was a much more useless addition than Dawn.

Lucky on King of the Hill. And Peggy's almost there. I hate episodes centered around Peggy and/or her idiot relatives.

I agree with the addition of Seven to Married With Children. That obnoxious little sprog shouldn't have been allowed anywhere even in the same zipcode as The Bundy household. Since they never officially explained away his disappearance let's just say he got hit by a bus or found a package from the Unabomber.
Same with that perky obnoxious twat on Home Improvement who kept saying "producer" anytime Tim disagreed with one of her asinine ideas.

The addition of Tony Almeida from 24 is stupid considering season 7 hasn't happened yet so it's hard to pass judgement. My guess is that his inclusion in the new season as a terrorist won't be a vengeful Tony but a terrorist altered to look like him. But as for useless characters: Beau- Welcome Back Kotter-Replaced Travolta's Vinny Barbarino. Um, a Sweathog he was not and it failed miserably. Geri- Facts of Life-I guess the producers were trying to go for a handicapped demographic as actress Geri Jewel had cerebral palsy and even though she did a good enough job, her character added nothing to the show. Andrew- Family Ties-Another attempt to breath life into a show by bringing in a little brother, Andrew, played by Brian Bonsell who went on to play another useless character Alexander in Star Trek: The Next Generation. Roger- Happy Days-Where to begin with this one. Ron Howard and Don Most leave the show and they replace them with this guy? Ugh. Well, coming from the show that defined "Jumping the Shark"... Stephanie- All In The Family-Again, using a younger cast member to breath life into a show. And even though actress Danielle Brisebois became a hottie(see pic below), her character on this show effectively killed it.

How about Detective Logan on Criminal Intent. And any partner they have with him on rotating episodes when the regs aren't on.
