Who is More Annoying...

Who do you think is more annoying Vernon from the classic series or Baxter Stockman from the new series.

I mean they are both arrogant snilvely little twerps that put to much stock in their abilties and professnalism. And both won't shut the hell up. And because they are so full of them selves it ultimatly end up failing because of it. And there both out for number one and don't mind decieving and tricking people to get it.

Although where Vernon is just a jerk, Baxter Stockman is actually pretty evil. Although I guess Vernon from the cliassic toon had his "grey" moments. Like during the red sky arc where he was dilberatly reporting stories of the turtles as menaces when he knew it wasn't the truth just because he wanted to be a big reporter and he just didn't like the turtles.

Vernon. Baxter is a genius at least and Vernon doesn't have anything to offer but his poor sarcasm

Note how Baxter Stockman of the OLD toon is not an option, because he'd win by a motherf*ckin' landslide. I always found Vernon hilarious for some reason, so I had to say Blaxter. He strikes me as one of those guys that would sit next to you at lunch without an invitation and ramble on incessantly without so much as pausing to take a breath.

Old toon Baxter was annoying but I kinda loved to hate him, whereas Vernon was just....annoying. And new toon Baxter doesn't have as annoying a voice, more character depth too. Although I'm sick of him coming back.

Baxter from the new toon is most definitely more annoying.

Vernon rocks.

I didn't put Baxter Stockman from the classic toon up there because to be honest, I thought he was a sympathatic character. I mean I felt sorry for him. The poor little guy got the sh**ty end of the stick big time. And I think all he ever wanted was to be accepted by some one, and what does Shredder do, he screws him over.

Now Baxter Stockman in the new toon is, I agree more complex than Baxter Stockman in the orginal series. But dear gawd the man is freakin annoying!! I thought villans who constantly built them selves up and congatulated them selves on being geniuos went out with Willy Coyote (in the few episodes where he was given a voice).

I mean I sit there and watch him go on and on about how brillant he is and I'm just going WTF!! Dude you manged to get your eye gouged out, your body mutalated and your brain removed and put into a tube of pickle juice, that is not the sort of things that happen to smart people. Becuae even a idiot would figure out that Gloating=getting caught=mutalation.

Vernon from the classic toon was a complete brown noser and would shoot off his mouth and then get in trouble, and then the turtles would have to bail him out and he still acting like they where scum.

Baxter Fly was a sympathetic character who went from bumbling scientest to a victim of a still serious Krang at the time, his apperances may have been later limited, but he was given an original form of development, and was barly irritating to me. New Baxter just seems incapable of dying, and his appeal ended after he became a brain in a jar. A revival Adam-style does nothing for him.

Vernon bashing? Tsk, tsk...the guy was comic gold, perfect example of the kind of "persucting ignorant" kind represrnted also by Burne Thompson

I voted for new series Baxter Stockman. Sure, Vernon was a pretty annoying jerk, but Baxter can be overly irritating and the kinda guy you would want to see dead. Plus, the humor of Vernon can be greatly appreciated where as with Baxter I guess the only thing that can be appreciated of him is that he occasionaly poses a threat to the TMNT.

Well i would have to say Vernon because not only was he an arrogent self centered twerp but the fact that he was being such a little b**ch to the turtles all the time even after they kept saving his ungrateful life really bugs me.
But I do agree that Baxter should die already.He's like a damn roach, only a nuclear bomb could kill that guy.

I know he was comic gold, I have to say that I really liked Vernon. He was one of those characters that are just so arrogant and goofey and annoying and full of themselves that you easily forgive their rough edges. You know one of those people you love to hate but later on figure out that they are just to funny to even love to hate tham and you just end up loveing them. Like Bebop and RockSteady.

I was just pointing out that the show took his character in another direction in the final seasons and he became rather malicous and not so quite annoying.

Ugh, Vernon was such a wuss. That pink top suited him, perfectly, if you catch my drift.

At least Baxter Stockman showed that he had some sort of spine, with the exception of the later episodes.
