The one for me that takes the cake is in that Brazilian Mega Man comic where the writer who took the job hated Mega Man so he tried killing off the entire cast and making the comic about an OC named Princess.

There's a reason Snarf doesn't talk in the 2000s Thundercats revival. they lobotomized poor uncle Osbert >_>

Webby on Ducktales was trash. There, I said it, now I can die without that weight on my shoulders Imagine that and amplify it by 100. This is what I think of Molly Cunningham.

Honestly, the combo of Spike and Bumblebee annoys me. It didn't when I was a kid. However, rewatching the show I was annoyed at just how often they chose the bright yellow autobot to go spy on the decepticons and the defenceless human is all "oh let me go too," and Bumblebee just goes, 'sure why not'. Then inevitably Spike screws up and the autobots have to save them.

Slimer... post show "Fixing" I loved Slimer... he was a great side character... but... that's just it... he was a great SIDE character he shouldn't have top billing or be a major part of the show. That is my go to answer, too. I vividly remember the disappointment whenever I realized it was going to be a Slimer episode that aired.
I also hated Scruple on the Smurfs because he rendered Gargamel even more ineffective than usual.

Corporal Capeman in Inspector Gadget.
Gadget's already an idiot, why does he have to mentor someone even dumber?

Heart from Captain Planet. I mean all the other Planeteers were the 4 elements of the planet. Heart isn't an element! Btw let's not forget he had a pet monkey.
And if you want to be technical Captain Planet didn't happen until 1990, but it's close enough

Writer: Boss! Our show includes a cowardly character with a high pitched whiny voice, and all the viewers hate him! How can we make them like Snarf? Producer: Create a new character. Make him more cowardly, and give him an even higher pitched, whinier voice. And oh, yeah, also make him a bumbling idiot. Once we debut the new character, everyone's gonna love Snarf! f*** Snarfer

Snarf. Oh god, Snarf. Whiny, clingy, needy, unappealing design and a voice like a rusty gate. It's a kid appeal character seemingly designed to punish kids.

At least Spike and Bumblebee got into shenanigans while trying to help save the day. Daniel and Wheelie would screw things up for people because they were bored idiots.

Bumblebee was actually one of my favorite G1 Transformers. I bought numerous Bees as I kept breaking mine.

Corporal Capeman in Inspector Gadget. Gadget's already an idiot, why does he have to mentor someone even dumber? That is why Larabee in Get Smart existed, to sometimes make Max look smart no pun indented. Though executed much better. In terms of the sidekicks for the kids to identify with and feel empowered, when it was a kid character, ironically from the show, I think the best one and the one that inspired other shows to have these kids sidekick is Penny. She is by far the best, she competent, the real hero of the show.
