* The astonishingly bad decision to kill off Marian in ''Series/RobinHood'' was dealt with by replacing her with a "fiesty village girl" called Kate. If you think this sounds like a recipe for disaster, then you're too optimistic. The writers were clearly terrified of making [[ReplacementScrappy Marian's replacement]] anything but [[PuritySue Super-Special-Awesome]], and in doing so, they commit every mistake in the book. Along with contrived {{Angst}} and extensive fighting skills, her InformedFlaw of [[RecklessSidekick idiotic recklessness]] is described as "brave" by the outlaws, even though [[TheMillstone she endangers their lives along with her own nearly every episode]]. But what makes her a JerkSue is that the writers tried to make her TheHeart of the gang by giving her moral superiority over the other outlaws, with blatant disregard for her own [[{{Hypocrite}} hypocrisy]]. When villagers are captured she accuses the outlaws of only caring about Robin's safety, though she displays no concern for any of the captured men except her own brother, and later she insists that Isabella can't be trusted, even though Kate herself once betrayed Robin in order to get something ''she'' wanted.[[hottip:* :It is on Kate's insistence that Robin eventually breaks up with Isabella, only to find that she was completely loyal to him ''until'' she was humilated and dumped. [[NiceJobBreakingItHero Nice Job Breaking It, Kate.]]]] She also demands that Allan and Much stop protecting her in order to concentrate on the mission, and then goes on to sabotage several important plans because she's busy trying to pursue a relationship with Robin. Naturally, she's EasilyForgiven for all of this, [[DoubleStandard if it's even pointed out to her at all]], and no one seemed to have a problem dealing with her extensive temper-tantrums whenever she didn't get what she wanted. The audience was left to scratch their heads and wonder why on earth everyone was so fascinated with such a whiny, obnoxious, brainless little snot.

** It's [[YourMileageMayVary debatable]], but Godot ''may'' be considered a straight example. Like Franziska, he gets away with some pretty sociopathic stuff, like throwing scaulding hot coffee at Phoenix, disrespecting the judge etc. [[spoiler: also in the final case of the game, his selfish scheme to put Maya in danger and save her himself gets Misty Fey, (Mia and Maya's mother) killed. He never gets called out on [[NeverMyFault blaming Phoenix for putting Maya in danger]] and he is the one person who Franziska doesn't whip for not worshipping the ground she walks on, even though he's more unpleasant to her than anyone else is (his behaviour towards her is [[StayInTheKitchen downright sexist]], and very unwarranted). Despite the fact that the whole tragedy was Godot's fault, Iris doesn't rat him out, despite the fact that it could have led to the death penalty, and even Maya (the person ''whose mother'' Godot killed) was willing to take the heat for him. Not that he ever gets called out on any of this. When he finally does admit that [[ItsAllMyFault it was his own fault]], it's only because he comes to the conclusion himself, rather than let anyone give him a [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech verbal smackdown about what he did]]. At the end of the case, even ''Phoenix'' wants to believe that he did it all for a noble reason and is heartbroken that he wasn't able to save Godot]]

** Not helping matters was the actress herself, who seemed incapable of delivering her lines in anything but a whiny high-pitched screech, and [[DethroningMomentOfSuck the absolute nadir of her character]] was when she demanded that her romantic rival Isabella be left to the mercy of her CompleteMonster of a husband and, in the most jaw-dropping example of ShillingTheWesley ever, is called "compassionate" two scenes later. WTF, writers?

* [[DegrassiTheNextGeneration Degrassi]] has Emma Nelson. Originally just slightly enviromental and slightly preachy, she went through huge [[Flanderisation]] almost over night. She was constantly telling Manny what awful mistakes she made, and then go and make some herself. Often, she'll be a bitch to her friends for making mistakes (mostly Manny), but then is shocked when she has concequences for her mistakes. Doesn't help that she's seen as perfect in her parents' eyes.

* In the Mexican Telenovela "''Soy Tu Dueña''" this is the case for the protagonist. She likes to mistreat people (becuase she thinks they are evil) , destroyed a store (with no consequences), actualy reduced one of her worker's salary to give it to someone else , and treats everyone like trash (with the exception of [[RelationshipSue her love interest]])

*** Not ''just'' in her head. Bella's usually pretty nasty when she's talking to people, too; for this troper, her [[EstablishingCharacterMoment establishing jerk-ass moment]] was in the first book, when she's being rude to a boy who is ''guiding her to her classes on her first day''. [[SarcasmMode What an asshole!]] (And, [[MarySue of course]], he just thinks she's wonderful.)

* Amy Jergins from ''TheSecretLifeOfTheAmericanTeenager''. My god, ''Amy''. She's a hateful bitch to her parents, sister, boyfriend, friends, and everyone else. She doesn't seem to care that her actions harm someone else ('''Including her baby!!'''), and instead will bitch and moan until her demands are met. And yet, all of the other characters treat her as a saint.

* [[TheDumbledore Albus Dumbledore]] from the ''HarryPotter'' books, [[AlternativeCharacterInterpretation according to some interpretations.]] He shows blatant favoritism to Gryffindors and Harry in particular, and brags about being the cleverest man alive in Harry's presence. We also see that he demonstrated his magical power to a little Lord Voldemort by setting his wardrobe on fire, and that he was extremely condescending to Severus Snape when he came to him for help to [[spoiler: make amends for the death of Lily Potter, which Snape blamed himself for]], even insulting his ''whole house'' by telling him, "[[AlwaysChaoticEvil sometimes we sort too soon]]." Yet he is the teacher nobody wants to cross, the only one more powerful than the BigBad, and [[ProtagonistCenteredMorality Harry looks up to him like some sort of god.]]

* Played Straight in the ''Baldur's Gate'' series by Edwin Odesseiron. While a complete jerkass to the Protagonist and every NPC he interacts with, he is easily the most powerful character- in addition to being a mage, which are already very powerful in the setting, he has a super special ''Vancian Magic'' amulet that gives him more spells than a player could ever hope to have.
