Worst cartoon comic relief/sidekick...

Does anyone want to nominate their worst comic relief/sidekick
memories from cartoons growing up? This might be cathartic.

I've got one. Fenton Quackshell from Ducktales, one of the lamest side characters ever. They basically made him a pathetic loser to be laughed at unless he was his Gizmoduck persona. Then it was instantly like he was cool and could do everything.

Get out of my house. Robin is awesome.

I really hated Dave Coulier.

Jason does suck. The Best Robin is Dick Grayson then Tim Drake.

Robin IS awesome, and Jason Todd is great now. Grayson is a better Nightwing, and Tim is the best Robin.

I hate Dave Coulier on Ghostbusters. He was no where near as good as Lorenzo Music.

I hated Mati, from Captain Planet. That counts.

spoken for truth. Dave is a decent VA and he made a good Animal replacment on the Muppet Babies when the first V.A left, but he was not Peter. Dave Coulier had an exggerated way of speaking that I didn't care for in Peter.

In the same vein as the Real Ghostbusters, I didn't like the cartoon version of Louis Tully. He added nothing to the cartoon series and lacked the presence and charisma as the live action Louis Tully. And what the hell was up with making him a teenager in cartoon series?

Also, I never cared for Slimer. I really don't care for Mascot characters and it was unbearable when the shows focus switched over to him so much.

I can't stand Jade from Jacky Chan adventures. What an annoying sidekick.

I agree with Pikachu being a bad sidekick. He was so annoying, and I hated Scrappy Doo.

Hating on Robin? I agree he's been used totally wrong in some shows/movies, but over-all they're all cool characters.

I hate... Ed from Cowboy Bebop, gosh she was annoying.

I try to let that irritant go in one ear and out the other when I watch
Cowboy Bebop: The Movie. It's challenging.

As Peter Venkman II or in general?

And as for my contribution for this thread: Corporal Capeman from Inspector Gadget. He was one of the main reasons season 2 sucked so badly.

Shippou from Inuyasha. That little kitsune is cute but thats about it.

Also Jaken from Inuyahsa. Sesshomaru's little frog demon attendent, whos whole mission is too kiss Sesshomaru's ass. His American dub voice doesn't help much eighther.

And while I'm on Inuyahsa, those two wolf demon's that travel along with kouga. They are completly useless and don't do much except whine and need saving. I don't think I've ever seen them contribute in fight and they just get in the way.

I think the worst would have to be Scrappy Doo.

What's wrong with Ma-ti? Does he really count as a sidekick?

Anyhow, Scrappy Doo often overdid it.
