TheScrappy and [[ScrappyIndex his ilk]] are characters who are despised by most (if not all) of the fandom. However, occasionally there may be one moment where the despised character is the butt of a humiliating joke, or another character says what the audience is thinking to/about the despised character.

If this results in the character's death, this can result in [[AndThereWasMuchRejoicing mass rejoicing]]. If the Scrappy in question has been around long enough and especially if they happen to be the CreatorsPet character, this is probably an AuthorsSavingThrow. Can be the character's (on the firing end) SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome, or a SugarWiki/{{Funny Moment|s}}. In some scenarios, however, this trope can come off as unnecessarily mean-spirited, especially if [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness the cast breaks character to express their hatred]]. Keep in mind that TropesAreTools.

* The redhead girl in the At&T ad points out what is on everyone's mind: How her older brother is being an ungrateful brat completely insensitive to those who don't have U-verse...and many other things.
* The singer in the Go Compare adverts has to be one of the most annoying and generally unpopular characters in commercials. Hence many were pretty pleased when he got given quite the [[GroinAttack nutshot]] in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Euh9zWmASN4 this video]], or [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BB3oC8oXnLc&feature=plcp sent on a one way trip]] in another, or [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NP1mHa6s4a8 shot with a rocket launcher]] by Sue Barker in one official commercial and as of late, hit in the gut with a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=caOAk-V6P94 football kicked at him]] by Stuart Pierce.
** He's been caught in a net trap set by Ray Mears, as seen [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MFiXXdyY-Oo here]]. He's also been tortured by [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mxIJWf6stIk Louie Spence]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=onzJBr-CAmI sucked into a black hole]] by Creator/StephenHawking. Given that ads on web pages have him being attacked by LOL Cats and the ad tagline now seems to be 'saving the nation', it seems the producers made the commercials all about the take that aspect.
** They've now made him a pathetic loser who fails desperately at trying to 'find a replacement advertising method' for the company, with things like ([[SmallNameBigEgo ridiculously over the top in a positive way]]) action figures and him singing with autotune. Karma? Or enough to make someone just want to end this damn thing already?
** That said, [[CareerResurrection he's back...]]
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oduyTYKc28w An Alabama personal injury attorneys ad]] has Progressive's mascot, Flo being trapped in jail along with two people and Flo haters said that she deserved it.
** If you're watching the full version, Geico's Gecko also this to his haters.
*** In another Progressive ad, Flo attempts to advertise insurance in other time periods- all of which land her in situations where death is just around the corner.
** Progressive's other mascot, the incredibly smug and narcissistic Auto Insurance Box, gets his in one ad when he gets detained by the TSA. [[StatusQuoIsGod Too bad he didn't stay detained.]]

[[folder:Anime and Manga]]
* ''Anime/EurekaSeven'' fans cheered when Talho (ironically, a fellow Scrappy) gave Holland a good smack across the face when he was ready to abuse Renton again. They also cheered when Renton gave Holland a BadassBoast on how he came back to the Gekkostate for Eureka.
* ''Manga/FairyTail'':
** Laxus [[CurbStompBattle curbstomps]] ''all'' of Raven Tail, after they cheated at the games to make Fairy Tail lose (negating Lucy's CrowningMomentOfAwesome by stopping her from using Urano Metoria against Flare and attacking Laxus all at once while using an illusion to make it look like he was suffering a CurbStompBattle from his official opponent) and were being [[SmugSnake insufferably smug]] about it.
** Even with the [[AssPull controversy]] involving how it happened, Erza beating Minerva still counts, especially with the latter [[VillainousBreakdown begging for mercy]] by the end.
** Natsu knocking out the former Council member Michello after he showed obnoxious cowardice and selfishness by abandoning his granddaughter to Jackal, trying to impose authority over the townspeople while demanding help, and insisting that he's far more important to save than a pregnant woman when Jackal puts Lucy in a SadisticChoice over picking one not to blow up.
** Silver curb-stomping Natsu, and freezing him solid comes off as this to those who were coming to really dislike the latter by the Tartaros arc.
%%** Sting blasting a hole in Ziemma.
* In the ''VideoGame/FateGrandOrder'' anime adaptation ''First Order'', [[{{Jerkass}} Shinji]] [[DirtyCoward Matou]] has a cameo as one of Medusa's many stone victims. Then she shatters him.
* ''Manga/GirlsBravo'': [[{{Tsundere}} Kirie]] haters were quite pleased how she got a few humiliation moments here and there, getting close to ButtMonkey status when [[PsychoLesbian Kosame]] is around.
* ''Manga/ASilentVoice'' has several:
** Takeuchi-sensei, Shouko and Shouya's elementary school teacher and the shining example of AdultsAreUseless, shows up when Shouya and Mashiba visit the school and he's just as shallow as ever. Fans were ''very'' satisfied to watch [[BullyHunter Mashiba]] - who had just been present to request that he and his friends be permitted to shoot their film at Takeuchi's school - ''splash the contents of his water bottle in the remorseless jackass's face.''
** Shouya, during his fight with his friends after the dropping of the [[DramaBomb Drama Bomb]], delivers the following statement to [[BitchInSheepsClothing Kawai]], [[WoundedGazelleGambit the person responsible]] for the dropping of said [[DramaBomb Drama Bomb]]:
--->'''Shouya:''' [[spoiler:Kawai, you disgust me to the very bottom of my heart. Please don't say anything else.]]
** Shouko and Yuzuru's mother, a bit of a Scrappy herself, delivers a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown to Ueno, an even bigger [[TheScrappy Scrappy]] after the latter had just done the same to her injured and more or less utterly defenseless daughter, Shouko. This at least partially contributed to [[MemeticMutation Nishimama's]] being [[RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap Rescued From The Scrappy Heap]].
** Early on in the story, [[VillainProtagonist Shouya]] gets an overdose of his own medicine after Nishimiya is forced to leave. This ends up leading to his becoming TheAtoner, which, in turn, leads to his being RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap... for most people. For those who can't bring themselves to view him sympathetically after all he had done when he was in elementary school, the ''entire series'' is pretty much this to him.
* In the ''Anime/HeidiGirlOfTheAlps'' anime series (part of the Anime/WorldMasterpieceTheater), Fräulein Rottenmeier treats Heidi so severely that she becomes abusive to the little girl. Then the last episodes of the series focus on Klara's visits to Heidi and her grandpa in the mountains, and Rottenmeiter is such a FishOutOfWater that she becomes TheChewToy. It was not only hilarious, but ''cathartic''.
* ''Anime/KillLaKill'' plays with this a little bit - [[VillainSue Nui]] [[spoiler:loses her arms]] but essentially immediately gets them back, and gets a [[spoiler:peaceful, happy]] ending, which ultimately left a lot of the fandom disappointed.
* In ''Manga/KotouraSan'', Hiyori was at first seen as TheScrappy after {{MindRap|e}}ing and then bullying [[TheWoobie Haruka]] and also sending four adults to attack her ChildhoodFriend Manabe, all because Manabe dated Haruka, not her. After her HeelFaceTurn, Hiyori changes from antagonistic bully to group ButtMonkey. The poster Haruka gets from Manabe in episode 5 (which Haruka used for laughing material) says it all. Likewise, Manabe, for a short time at least, treats Hiyori with hilarious contempt once her friendship with Haruka is solidified.
* In the ''Manga/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime'' manga, there's a mini-story that includes Navi getting chased around with a fly swatter, being hit numerous times. "Shut Up [Navi]!" indeed. ''WebVideo/ThereWillBeBrawl'' references Zelda. "Shut the ''[[PrecisionFStrike fuck]]'' up, Navi!". In ''WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls'', where the Mayor plays ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime Ocarina of Time]]'' and accidentally kills [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N-KEuSt0lZI Navi]] An episode of ''WesternAnimation/GravityFalls'' episode had Stan swat a fairy, its last words being one of Navi's most hated quotes.
* Naru Narusegawa from ''Manga/LoveHina'' is a {{Tsundere}} towards Keitarou, and more than once reaches {{Domestic Abuse}}r ''and'' {{Jerkass}} levels (and especially [[CharacterExaggeration in the anime]], where she becomss a JerkSue). Well, at some point [[spoiler: Keitarou's {{Yandere}} adopted sister Kanako]] gets fed up and ''{{punche|dAcrossTheRoom}}s'' [[PunchedAcrossTheRoom Naru across a hot spring]] because of that... and a good part of the (mostly) American fandom ''cheered'' because she was FINALLY getting called out on her bullshit.
* Quattro, the SmugSnake from ''Anime/MagicalGirlLyricalNanohaStrikers'' that viewers love to hate. While [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill her defeat by overkill]] from Nanoha may or may not be this, this scene from ''Audioplay/StrikersSoundStageX'' was clearly added just so that fans could point and laugh at how much she had fallen by now.
-->'''Jail:''' I've been keeping myself healthy. This transparent prison is unexpectedly comfortable. \\
'''Cinque:''' Uno and Tre are healthy as well.\\
'''Jail:''' They haven't changed at all. Quattro has even gotten a bit fat.
* ''Anime/MegaManNTWarrior'' had the episode titled "The Purloined Princess" which brought back [[RichBitch Yai]] in the show, only for the main cast to show that they are just as sick of her as the fandom.
** Similarly, we have Slur in ''Stream'' that is considered part of the reason for the series SeasonalRot at the point due to her poor status (her and Duo were supposed be AboveGoodAndEvil, fans felt otherwise with her), and the fact that she [[InvincibleVillain NEVER LOST, EVER]], even to Bass. The writers seem to eventually pick on this and after the events of the movie where Bass absorbed the powers of Nebula Grey, he [[KarmicDeath brutally murders Slur by punching her through the chest]].
* ''Anime/{{Pokemon}}'':
** Piplup keeps getting [[Funny/{{Pokemon}} punted by Ash's Gible's Draco Meteor]]. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SyhJPWB0j8s Many,]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IEd3KR4IACk&feature=related many]] [[RunningGag times]]. As well as hit by nearly every other stray attack, tormented by a BrattyHalfPint...this goes beyond Take That Scrappy. They turned him into the ButtMonkey.
--> A comment on the first video: It's like the writers knew some people wouldn't like Piplup.
** Another example comes with Cameron. [[spoiler:After defeating both Bianca and Ash, he gets defeat 3-6 by Virgil.]] It even went so far that Cameron was omitted from the dub's usage of footage from the "Be An Arrow" opening and a set of Event Pokémon based on his roster where not released in the US. It seems The Pokémon Company is aware of the backlash Cameron has received. In a downloadable tournament, in fact, you get to fight Cameron and Virgil, allowing haters to get their revenge on them.
* ''VisualNovel/SchoolDays'':
** [[spoiler:Makoto's death at the hands of Sekai.]]
** Makoto getting [[GroinAttack kneed by Sekai.]]
* ''Anime/ValvraveTheLiberator'' has [[AxCrazy Q-Vier]], the only actually evil member of the Dorssian elite team, who was otherwise composed of [[AntiVillain Anti Villains]]. Lacking any kind of HiddenDepths, as well as A-Drei's [[NobleDemon high-minded ideals]], X-Eins' [[TheStrategist strategic prowess]] and even H-Neun's [[NiceGuy friendliness]], Q-Vier only cared about killing people and was responsible, either directly or indirectly, for the deaths of several more sympathetic (or even just [[EnsembleDarkhorse more popular]]) characters (the names [[spoiler: Figaro, Aina, Lieselotte and Yamada]] come to mind). Therefore, when [[spoiler: he was killed (though unintentionally) by A-Drei during the last episode]], it is safe to say that nobody felt sad for him (The writers wanted it to be an AlasPoorVillain moment, but Q-Vier was just too widely hated for it to work).
* Episode 8 of ''Anime/GundamBuildFighters'' opens with a {{Cameo}} from the reviled G-Saviour, only for it to be quickly and unceremoniously sliced in half by Nils Nielsen's Hyaku Shiki.
** Of course, many Western fans were actually ''delighted'' to see the G-Savior pop up, even if it got destroyed; in recent years the film earned a NarmCharm SoBadItsGood reputation among the fandom, and its appearance in ''Build Fighters'' was the first time Creator/{{Sunrise}} had acknowledged it (WordOfGod was that they [[CanonDiscontinuity generally preferred to pretend the movie never existed]]).
* ''Anime/MobileSuitZetaGundam'': [[spoiler: the death of Katz. The kid suffers a humiliating death trying to take on [[HeroKiller Yazan]] [[BloodKnight Gable]], fails miserably, and crashes into an asteroid]]. Fans consider it the high part of Zeta's [[KillEmAll gut-wrenching]] BittersweetEnding.
* In ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamZZ'', we see a return appearance of Wong Lee, one of the AEUG's higher-ups. Wong was widely disliked by fans due to beating the crap out of Kamille in his first scene (Kamille arguably had it coming, but Wong really went over-the-top), and then generally being whiny and useless for the rest of the series. When he tries to administer a similar "correction" to Judau, however, Judau knees him in the gut and takes off, much to the amusement of the fanbase.
* A mid-series episode of ''Anime/HappinessChargePrettyCure'' had [[TheDragon Phantom]] beating up an International Cure who resembled [[Anime/PrettyCureAllStars Cure Echo]]. However, some fans' reactions more bordered on AlasPoorScrappy as Dragon is ''seriously'' overpowered.
* ''Anime/KantaiCollection''[='s=] AnimatedAdaptation gets one in episode 9: Ooi's ClingyJealousGirl behavior reaches a head when she whines about a photo of her and Kitakami getting destroyed while ignoring the fact that [[spoiler:the entire Naval District -- the fleet girls' home -- was bombed into splinters by the Abyssal Fleet]]. Kitakami herself says "Ooi, this isn't the time for that" while calmly trying to clean things up.
* [[Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica Kyubey]] suffers from a realization that he shouldn't have toyed with human emotions and a BSOD in [[Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagicaTheMovieRebellion Madoka Rebellion]].
* In ''VisualNovel/DanganRonpa'', Hagakure got a lot of hatred for being a FlatCharacter who didn't contribute much to the story. In ''Anime/DanganRonpa3'', Monokuma tells the audience during a recap that he is stuck outside the building where all of the action is taking place, and therefore being excluded from the main plot, "Because nobody likes him."
** Ruruka Ando is disliked for, among other reasons, how poorly she treats her former childhood friend Seiko, and the DNA Comics Anthology's Ruruka and Seiko chapter mercilessly mocks Ruruka for being self-absorbed and inconsiderate of others. Ruruka [[https://mangapark.me/manga/danganronpa-3-the-end-of-hope-s-peak-academy-future-arc-despair-arc-comic-anthology-dna-media/s1/c001/86 complains]] that [[InsaneTrollLogic because Seiko does everything Ruruka asks her to, and doesn't eat Ruruka's sweets, the relationship is only beneficial to Seiko]]. It's also indicated that [[https://mangapark.me/manga/danganronpa-3-the-end-of-hope-s-peak-academy-future-arc-despair-arc-comic-anthology-dna-media/s1/c001/85 not only does Ruruka not understand that Seiko can't eat sugar]], but she [[https://mangapark.me/manga/danganronpa-3-the-end-of-hope-s-peak-academy-future-arc-despair-arc-comic-anthology-dna-media/s1/c001/78 also doesn't know that chocolate is poisonous to cats]]. Naturally, Seiko is utterly bewildered by the logic behind Ruruka's complaints, and Kyoko comments on Ruruka's ignorance.
* Any time Mineta from ''Manga/MyHeroAcademia'' gets hurt in any way is usually met with cheering from fans, especially if it's from a girl he was just trying to grope.
* The last episode of the ''Manga/DailyLifeWithMonsterGirl'' anime has the unnamed couple of racist assholes apparently killed in a car crash caused by Centorea. It's probably karmic punishment because the man of the couple tried to rape Centorea, together with other thugs, in an earlier episode.

[[folder:Comic Books]]
* Cheryl Blossom from ''Franchise/ArchieComics'' is a very controversial character for being Archie's ThirdOptionLoveInterest, her AlphaBitch personality, and for being HotterAndSexier than the norm. She and her brother Jason are the first characters to die in ''ComicBook/ArchieVsPredator''.
* Marcus, from ''ComicBook/TheAvengers'' #200 who used mind control machines to make [[ComicBook/MsMarvel Carol Danvers]] love him, ends up aging to dust after returning to his home dimension due to being out of sync with its time stream. Carol returns to Earth and reams out the Avengers for letting him take her.
* Jason Todd's NoHoldsBarredBeatdown on Damian Wayne in ''[[ComicBook/GrantMorrisonsBatman Batman and Robin]]'' #6, which ended with Damian getting a broken back for his trouble.
** Arguably it's Jason who receives the beating here at the hands of the Flamingo, a killer in a bright pink costume that would have killed Jason and his sidekick Scarlet if Damian and Dick had not come to his rescue. It was also Flamingo who shot Damian in the back, paralyzing him.
** Jason's stint as Robin ended way back when in the 80's in ''ComicBook/ADeathInTheFamily'', where he himself got served an astoundingly brutal for the time NoHoldsBarredBeatdown courtesy of ComicBook/TheJoker and a crowbar, who then [[StuffBlowingUp blew up the warehouse]] where it took place. DC at the time ran a poll asking the readers if Jason should survive or not; turns out the votes in favor of killing him off outnumbered those in favor of letting him live, so this was in effect DC itself allowing its readership to do this themselves. It's also significant that hatred for the character was so great even afterwards that it took almost 25 years for it to abate enough to bring him BackFromTheDead (and it's far from totally gone, too).
* Holly Granger of ''Hawk and Dove'', who had a thoroughly dislikable personality that, somehow, changed {{depending on the writer}}, was ''not'' liked by fans. So when Hank is brought back in ''ComicBook/BlackestNight'', he kills her in a CurbStompBattle, and in ''ComicBook/BrightestDay'', Hank is brought back as Hawk instead of Holly.
* In ''Comicbook/CataclysmTheUltimatesLastStand'', [[AffirmativeActionLegacy Miles Morales]] escapes an army of [[ComicBook/FantasticFour Reed Richards]]' security drones...by inadvertently getting them to shoot Comicbook/SuperiorSpiderMan instead.
* In ''[[ComicBook/{{Convergence}} Convergence: Speed Force #2]]'', Wally delivers a TheReasonYouSuckSpeech to ComicBook/{{Flashpoint}} Wonder Woman defining her as Diana's worst version of any universe. In ''Convergence #7'', [[UsefulNotes/TheSilverAgeOfComicBooks Silver Age]] ''Comicbook/{{Supergirl}}'' punches her into a mountain and expresses disbelief at someone like her being Wonder Woman.
* In ''Comicbook/DCRebirth'' #1, Pandora, the character who was thought to be responsible for the divisive ComicBook/{{New 52}} ContinuityReboot (and who is thus heavily associated with the reboot by fans), is casually murdered by [[Comicbook/{{Watchmen}} Doctor Manhattan]].
* The ComicBook/UltimateMarvel version of SelfDemonstrating/{{Deadpool}} was a ''major'' Scrappy amongst fans due to being a clichéd, mutant-hater rather than the unique, fun-loving JerkWithAHeartOfGold that Mainstream Deadpool is. Years later in ''Deadpool Kills Deadpool'', Ultimate Deadpool is amongst the evil versions of Wade that attack him. So of course we get to see Deadpool [[CurbStompBattle curb stomp]] him and then stab the bastard to death on-panel.
* In the ''Magazine/DoctorWhoMagazine'' comic strip's multi-Doctor story "Time and Time Again", Adric makes a cameo appearance incompetently trying to hit on Ace, and gets threatened with bodily harm.
* Used for a joke in ''Webcomic/DorkTower'' when Igor plays ''VideoGame/StarWarsBattlefront'':
-->'''Igor:''' I'm killing Ewoks and Gungans! I'm killing Ewoks and Gungans!\\
'''Carson:''' Kewl! So what do you think of it?\\
'''Igor:''' Explain to me what part of "I'm killing Ewoks and Gungans" was, exactly, hard to understand...
* ''ComicBook/HaloEscalation'' #16 features Dr. Halsey finally calling [[{{Jerkass}} Palmer]] out on her willingness to swallow the UNSC's throwing Halsey under the bus, pointing out that she never could have pulled off the SPARTAN-II project without their approval, and that the job and armor Palmer loves so much would never have existed without Halsey's work.
* Almost all the titles introduced in the ''Bloodlines'' crossover flopped after less than a year, with the lead characters being regulated to ComicBookLimbo. This was brought up in-universe in ''JLA/Hitman'', where Franchise/GreenLantern and Franchise/TheFlash mockingly claimed that the Bloodline heroes were a bunch of incompetent losers that everyone else in the superhero community looked down upon (this had extra self-congratulatory subtext, since ''{{ComicBook/Hitman}}'' had been the one character with a ''Bloodlines''-related origin to actually take off).
** A trio of them later got killed in humiliating fashion by Prometheus, who was himself in the process of being RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap.
** And a number of them were killed off by a casual glance (a ''heat vision'' glance, that is) by [[ComicBook/InfiniteCrisis Superboy-Prime]].
* At the height of ''ComicBook/DarkReign'', the [[CreatorsPet Dark Avengers]] showed up in ''ComicBook/TheIncredibleHercules.'' ComicBook/TheSentry, probably the least popular Avenger in the entire Marvel Universe at the time, flies up while telling Hercules to just give up, because there's no way he can win. Herc promptly humiliates Sentry: [[CapeSnag throwing him by his cape]], [[GrievousHarmWithABody hitting him with fellow villain]] ComicBook/{{Venom}}, and finishing it off with a GroinAttack.
* One of the (many) controversial decisions made during the ''Comicbook/{{New 52}}'' was SelfDemonstrating/{{Lobo}} being reintroduced as a slender, clean-shaven {{Bishonen}} instead of the grungy, musclebound slob fans had come to know and love. ''Comicbook/DCRebirth'' later brought back the classic Lobo and ''ComicBook/HalJordanAndTheGreenLanternCorps'' had Comicbook/{{Brainiac}} shrink down the new Lobo and trap him inside a containment jar, which the Comicbook/GreenLantern Corps then refused to open.
-->'''Hal Jordan''': Not that one. Trust me, better to leave ''him'' on the shelf.
* ''Comicbook/InfiniteCrisis'' featured Pantha and Wildebeest, two of the least-liked Comicbook/TeenTitans, dying absolutely horrifying deaths at the hands of [[PsychopathicManchild Superboy-Prime]]. In a surprise, however, this trope actually backfired, [[AlasPoorScrappy with many fans feeling even they didn't deserve to go out like that.]] The fact that Wildebeest is technically a child who can [[HulkingOut Hulk out]] into an adult form likely had something to do with it (though his child form isn't seen at all in the issue).
* ComicBook/{{Vibe}} and [[Characters/JusticeLeagueOfAmerica Steel]] from the reviled ''[[Franchise/JusticeLeagueOfAmerica Justice League Detroit]]'' were killed off several years after they were created due to negative fan reaction. Decades after their deaths, the characters are almost never mentioned in-universe unless in a negative manner. This itself got lampshaded when [[ComicBook/BlackestNight Black Lantern]] versions confronted the surviving Detroit Leaguers and basically asked why they were remembered as jokes while their teammates, Gypsy and Comicbook/{{Vixen}}, got to join the "real" League.
* The ComicBook/RedHulk was subject to being beaten up by Iron Man, Thor, the original Hulk, and nearly fell into a black hole while being trolled by Uatu the Watcher. Many fans were happy.
* During the last arc of ''ComicBook/{{Runaways}}'', Chase actually tells Klara, considered by many fans to be a ReplacementScrappy, to shut the fuck up.
* ''ComicBook/SecretSix'' has Tarantula's death. The character is ''not'' popular due to the ''epic'' Double Standard involving her actual raping of DC Comics fan favorite ComicBook/{{Nightwing}}, and the fact that she was ''accepted onto his team, the Batfamily'', afterwards. Suffice to say, many cheers were had when she finally got her comeuppance and died, being hit by an onslaught of super powers, which promptly destroyed her body and sent what's left of it off a bridge, into a river.
* ''ComicBook/SecretWars2015'': Final issue of ''[[ComicBook/GhostRider Ghost Racers]]'' has Arcade, a character who earned himself a very large hatedom by being responsible for death and derailment of many fan-favorite characters in ''Comicbook/AvengersArena'' and ''Comicbook/AvengersUndercover'' and [[KarmaHoudini getting away with it]], [[EyeScream having his eyes torn out]] and then being run over by every single one of the Spirits of Vengeance, reducing him to a bloody stain on the ground. Needless to say, it was very cathartic to watch.
* ''ComicBook/SpiderIsland'' was one big TakeThat against infamous Spider-Man ReplacementScrappy, CreatorsPet (she's named after Creator/JoeQuesada's daughter), SatelliteLoveInterest, and all around RelationshipSue Carlie Cooper. While at first it seems like more of the same-- Carlie gets to sleep with Peter Parker, she gets Spider-Powers while Mary Jane doesn't, and gets to be a "super awesome" fighter to complete the CharacterShilling -- she then gets her butt handed to her in a fight, turns into a giant spider with the rest of the hapless citizens of New York, and the day ends up saved largely by MJ who gets Spider-Powers ''without'' turning into a giant spider. The comic ends with a Peter and MJ ShipTease of the highest order. On top of that, Peter forgets about Carlie's predicament, leaving her naked and embarrassed in the middle of New York. And then already rejoicing fandom cheered louder when they broke up right after this. It dives even further in the ''ComicBook/SuperiorSpiderMan'' comic. She's the only one who realizes that Peter isn't Peter and goes to investigate. As she does, she discovers proof that Dr. Octopus has taken over Peter's mind. She vows to go to the Avengers... and gets kidnapped by [[ComicBook/NormanOsborn the Green Goblin]] and transformed into Monster.
* ''ComicBook/SpiderVerse''
** ''Amazing Spider-Man'' #11 has the present day Peter Parker slug the Superior Spider-Man in the face, then proceeds to humiliate him to get him to calm down and work together. All the while, Peter's admitting he's enjoying this bit.
** An issue of ''ComicBook/SpiderMan2099'' has one of the Inheritors, Daemon, confront ComicBook/ThePunisher2099. The Punisher beats him down. ''With a baseball bat.''
** The "Welcome Home" variant cover for ''Amazing Spider-Man'' #13 has Spidey 2099 and Spider-Gwen pull Spidey and Silk apart.
* One of the variant covers for Creator/MarvelComics' new ''Franchise/StarWars'' series has the rest of the cast hiding from Jaxxon, a CanonForeigner character from the original Marvel ''[[Comicbook/MarvelStarWars Star Wars]]'' series.[[http://i.newsarama.com/images/i/000/137/993/original/STWARS2015001_CHRISTOPHER_PARTY_var1-674x1024.jpg?1415214729]]
** During a conversation with Jabba the Hutt, Darth Vader shows that he has the same opinion of Salacious B. Crumb's AnnoyingLaugh that most viewers and fans do:
-->'''Darth Vader''': If you value that creature's life, you should tell it to '''never''' again do that in my presence.
** In Dark Horse's ''Comicbook/StarWarsTales'' anthology, there was a story called "Fett Club", which was about Jango Fett offering to train a bunch of new Mandalorians. One of the applicants is a Gungan named Jay-Jay Binks, and Jango shoots him to death as soon as he opens his mouth.
-->'''Jango Fett''': Seventh rule of Fett Club -- No Gungans. '''''Ever!'''''
* Both core ''Franchise/{{Superman}}'' books in the ComicBook/DCRebirth line took jabs at the New 52 Superman ([[FanNickname NuSupes]]). The guy was ''not'' well-liked due to being angrier, more prone to violence, having an unnecessary power and having a relationship with Wonder Woman, and was killed off just prior to the relaunch to make way for the pre-New 52 Superman (Superdad). Examples include:
** ''ComicBook/ActionComics''' first arc having ComicBook/WonderWoman tell Lois Lane that her love for Superman feels more "true". Wonder Woman had previously been in a relationship with the New 52 Superman that wasn't very well received, so this is basically Diana saying it wasn't true love.
** The TakeThat towards the Superman/Wonder Woman relationship even occured in ''ComicBook/WonderWomanRebirth'', Diana's ''own'' series. There she tells Steve Trevor, her most frequent love interest who got sidelined to make way for [=NuSupes=], that she was with [=NuSupes=] because it was "easy". Basically Greg Rucka was jabbing at the decision to pair the two up through Wonder Woman.
** ''ComicBook/SupermanRebirth'' has Lois say that, when it comes to Superman, "there's nobody better" when referring to Superdad.
** ''ComicBook/SupermanReborn'' has a subtle but still noticeable example if you're up on your ''Superman'' lore. The story reveals that Superdad and [=NuSupes=] are actually two halves of the ''original'' Superman. Specifically, that Superdad is the blue energy of Superman, while [=NuSupes=] is the red. This is actually a new version of the ''Superman Blue/Superman Red'' storyline from the 90s, wherein Superman was two energy beings that were, well, blue and red. In that story, it's eventually revealed that the blue Superman is the real one. Yep, the writers were sneaky with it, but they got in one last jab at [=NuSupes=] before he was written out of history altogether -- Superdad, despite being one half of the "true" Superman, is still the "real" Superman. When the two fuse back together into the "true" Superman, said Superman is basically entirely Superdad anyway, since he's got Superdad's history, family and personality, so there's another TakeThat.
* In ''ComicBook/WorldWarHulk - Frontline'', Sally Floyd (y'know, the one who made ''that'' speech to ComicBook/CaptainAmerica) gets roaring drunk and wanders into the middle of a mugging. She's rescued by Comicbook/MoonKnight, who then tells her that if he'd realized who she was beforehand, he wouldn't have bothered saving her.[[note]]Moon Knight hadn't taken part in the Civil War and neither side wanted him. That said, his heart was clearly with Cap and the anti-registration heroes.[[/note]]

[[folder:Fan Works]]
* In ''Fanfic/MyLittleUnicorn'', Rhymey is one of the more hated original characters because he speaks in nothing but rhymes, [[PainfulRhyme and unfortunately, not good ones]]. [[note]]The canon character Zecora also speaks in rhyme, but unlike Rhymey, she actually has a personality.[[/note]] An unintentional example happens when he confronts Ace Ray in ''My Brave Pony: Star Fleet Magic III'', who is in the process of making [[StrawmanHasAPoint points about Unicornicopia that are more valid than the author realizes]].
-->'''Rhymey''': There's no need to make a fuss / there is nothing he can do to us.\\
'''Ace Ray''': [[CrowningMomentOfFunny And you... will YOU STOP WITH THAT RHYMING]]!
** Rhymey gets an even bigger dose in the {{recursive|Fanfiction}} FixFic ''Fanfic/FallOfStarfleetRebirthOfFriendship'', where the majority of his character arc consists of these moments. Over the course of a single chapter, he gets beaten up by Rainbow Dash, loses the ability to rhyme, and is thrown out of Fluttershy's house. Later, Fluttershy [[spoiler:breaks free from his attempt to mind control her]] and lays a massive TheReasonYouSuckSpeech on him, before he [[spoiler:gets beaten down by Raven, who then slits his throat for good measure]]. He survives that, only to wind up in prison, where he gets disavowed by Grand Ruler and disowned by his own mother. Any potential sympathy for him is averted by his characterization as an [[DomesticAbuse abusive]], [[ItsAllAboutMe self-serving]], [[ChronicBackstabbingDisorder treacherous]] [[TheSociopath sociopath]].
* Airachnid, who'd killed one of the series EnsembleDarkhorse characters. Then is only exiled later on without any closer given to her ultimate fate. She is quickly killed off by Megatron near the beginning of the fanfic, ''FanFic/TransformersPrimeTimeWar''.
* [[GaryStu Tobias]] in the Anime/{{Pokemon}} oneshot of the [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/7959518/2/One-Shots-and-Plot-Bunnies same name]] gets one when he's told [[OlympusMons Legendary Pokemon]] are banned from competitive play and that since he earned all his badges with a Legendary, they're being confiscated and he'll have to start over.
** Happens to him again in a oneshot called ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11076955/1/A-Champion-s-Commupance A Champion's Commupance]]'' [sic], where he gets stripped of the championship and banned from competing for using Legendaries, which are then found to be genetically enhanced Pokemon. That happens to be against the law, so Tobias goes to jail, mumbling something along the lines of "I should have never trusted Team Galaxy..."
** ''[[https://alexwarlorn.deviantart.com/art/Tobias-Is-Arrested-Yo-569496061 Tobias Is Arrested, Yo]]'' appears to be heading in this direction, when two cops approach Tobias after he wins the Sinnoh Conference, arrest him for using banned Legendaries in competitive play, confiscate his badges, strip him of his championship title, and ban him from competing in future conferences. However, it turns out that "Tobias" was never a real person, and was actually a hologram created by Darkrai and the other Legendaries, who wanted to compete in a regional Conference for once.
* Shikamaru gives one to Sasuke in ''[[http://ficwad.com/story/228496 The Pride]]'' after Sasuke claims to be as strong as Naruto (who's recently gone rogue).
-->'''Sasuke''': Some would say I'm at the same level as him.\\
'''Shikamaru''': I'm sure there are those who indeed feel that way. However, based on your accomplishments before receiving that temporary boost from the Sage of the Six Paths, I would say that the quality of the opponents Naruto bested surpasses yours. Naruto in short order just before and during the war defeated the Rinnegan using Pain, as well as bested a Rinnegan and Sharingan using Obito, not to mention six of the nine Bijuu at the same time. He then managed to give the entire Shinobi Alliance a chakra boost and still fought against the ten tails until Madara absorbed it, where things got really dicey. I would go into pointing out that shortly before the war your list of accomplishments were limited to killing a weakened Orochimaru, and fighting your brother until his disease killed him, but I feel that would be redundant. Since the truth is that unless you were willing to tag along with any force sent to capture Naruto it is unlikely anyone we send would be capable of stopping him.
* ''WebAnimation/{{RWBY}}[[FanFic/RWBYReckoning : Reckoning]]'' had [[TheBully Cardin's]] [[{{Jerkass}} dickish attitude]] elevated UpToEleven. Originally just a school bully content with picking on Jaune, Cardin threatens to go after Ruby and Darrel if Yang doesn't spurn Darrel, using her as his 'maid'. As payback, Darrel takes the two fan-preferred options and [[TakeAThirdOption combines them]]: [[HoistByHisOwnPetard set the Rapier Wasps intended for Pyrrha on him,]] and [[MurderIsTheBestSolution breaking his legs]].
* In ''Fanfic/GundamSeedBloodlines'', the first thing Cagalli does upon meeting Lacus Clyne is punch her in the face.
* In the fic My Inner Nightmare, Jenna, the infamous BlackHoleSue of ''Fanfic/MyInnerLife'', is made into a succubus who wants to feast on Link's life force but is destroyed by Zelda.
* Paul gets one in ''Fanfic/PokemonResetBloodlines'' when Lt. Surge calls him out for his insistence on winning at all costs, especially when Surge forfeits rather than risk his Raichu losing it's limbs to a powered up razor leaf. Paul tries calling Lt. Surge's strategies "pathetic" only for Surge to respond that as Paul is neither a war veteran nor a gym leader, he has no room to talk.
** Samurai earned a lot of ire for being central to one of the anime's first examples of a Broken Aesop. In Reset, he's a Butt Monkey who gets humiliated every time he appears.
* ''Fanfic/AVoiceInTheWilderness'' has Federation President Okeg fire the [[AssInAmbassador utterly useless]] [[Characters/StarTrekOnlineUnitedFederationOfPlanets Ambassador Jiro Sugihara]], replacing him with [[http://memory-beta.wikia.com/wiki/Charivretha_zh%27Thane Councillor Charivretha zh'Thane]].
* ''[[http://www.tthfanfic.org/Story-28404-105/DianeCastle%2bXendra.htm Xendra]]'' shows how the [[Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer Scoobies]] would react to Kennedy if they met her before Season 7. She's shown to be a RichBitch with a definite case of SmallNameBigEgo. Willow isn't remotely impressed when Kennedy first tries to flirt with her, then when Willow turns her down (stating she's already dating Xander/[[GenderBender Xendra]]) Kennedy tries to ''pay'' her.
* Suzaku Kururugi gets several of [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech the reason he sucks speeches]] in ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10448834/38/Six-Paths-of-Rebellion Six Paths of Rebellion]]'' for working for Britannia while espousing the evils of fighting the empire that conquered his homeland. After the Black Rebellion succeeds, he's the only Honorary Brittanian to choose against staying in the United States of Japan and once his plans to rule Area 11 as the Knight of One are made known, along with his supporting of atrocities such as the Shinjuku Massacre, he's regarded as the worst traitor in the history of Japan by the populace.
* 3 different ''VisualNovel/DanganRonpa'' ask blogs have featured easily the most hated character in the franchise, Haiji Towa, being KilledOffForReal:
** ''Blog/AskTheNewHopesPeak'' had [[spoiler: Hajime]] killed Haiji after [[spoiler: the latter tried to assassinate Makoto Naegi.]]
** ''Blog/AskKuzumikiAdventures'' has Kotoko kill him, after a couple of anons suggested it.
** And on ''Blog/ThePreDespairKids'', [[OriginalCharacter Maverick]] [[ManipulativeBastard Storm]] mentions crucifying Haiji and taking over as the leader of the adult resistance in Towa City.
* Much like ''Fanfic/PokemonResetBloodlines'' above, Samurai in ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11803928/2/ Challenger]]'' suffers badly in his first appearance. Upon seeing his trainer threatened with a sword, Ash's Sandile (Sobek) rips it out of Samurai's hands and bites it in two. During their battle, Sandile beats Pinsir easily due to Ash being a CombatPragmatist unlike [[HonorBeforeReason Samurai]] and using his strongest and most effective moves immediately.
* In the ''Series/{{House}}'' fanfic "Invasion of the Cuddy Snatchers" Thirteen gets eaten by SpecialGuestStar C'Thulu!
* A RunningGag in ''FanFic/TheWinxClubLoops'' has the Trix Sisters replacing the Advertising/TrixRabbit and, being much more powerful than him, easily defeating the kids that try and steal their cereals and eat them before their eyes.
* ''Fanfic/YugiohEQG'': [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyEquestriaGirlsLegendOfEverfree Timber Spruce]] quickly becomes disliked by Flash Sentry for flirting with Twilight Sparkle, and challenges him to a duel. During the duel Timber shows to be a [[BitchInSheepsClothing jerk]] who only respects monsters [[SocialDarwinism who are strong]], using his weak monsters as CanonFodder. Even Twilight, who saw him as a nice guy just a little bit ago is shocked by how heartlessly he treats his monsters. Flash beats him by using Shine Crest Magna Wolf, a card Timber mocked earlier, raising its ATK to 4600 and beating Timber's ace with it.
** Timber shows up in the sequel as a finalist and brags about his point total, before finding out that out of all the 32 finalists he is in last place. Then he is eliminated during the first round of the finals when he loses his match against Cloak N Dagger. Flash just smirks at both of these, taking joy in Timber's humiliation.
* ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/12879916/28/The-Longest-Road The Longest Road]]'' has an unfortunate example gone a little too far. Understandably, the author was pretty angry with Erika's decision in the Pokémon anime to ban Ash for not liking her perfume. However, rather than denouncing her unprofessionalism, he instead gets her ousted from her job for being ''a lesbian'' (for some reason, the Pokémon League has a rule that states that nobody who is from the LGBT community can be a trainer). It's hard not to think of her [[UnintentionallySympathetic as the more sympathetic party]], especially given that the rest of her Gym staff are most likely going to find themselves out of a job soon.
* ''FanFic/ToHellAndBackArrowverse'':
** The author ''does not'' like Felicity Smoak, and even admits as much in the first part of the prologue.
*** In the unaltered timeline from where Eobard comes from, Felicity was a [[StalkerWithACrush Green Arrow stalker]] that had convinced herself that Oliver was her soulmate and outed his secret identity to the public right before she was jailed after he rejected her.
*** In the current timeline, she's in jail for creating the hacktivist supervirus that her college boyfriend took the blame for in canon. Said boyfriend is also in jail for using it to clear out his student loans.
** Andy Diggle and the Darhks (sans Nora) are both killed in Part IV of the prologue. Andy's death isn't even mentioned, just inferred by readers.
* In ''Fanfic/{{Traveler}}'' Ash easily beats Samurai the first time they fight, up until Samurai uses Hyper Beam then runs when it angers a swarm of Beedrill. The second time Ash passes through Viridian Forest, he has all eight badges and just irritably has Infernus use flamethrower on Samurai's Pinsir.
** Paul is taken out of the Pokemon League offscreen when Michael utterly curb-stomps him. Likewise, everyone who's met Paul agrees he's a prick.
* The one shot, ''[[https://twispitefic.livejournal.com/20755.html Tough Love]]'', can be considered a cathartic one for anyone tired of Bella's behavior and brattiness from ''Literature/{{Twilight}}''. In an alternative scene from ''New Moon'' between Bella and her father, Charlie Swan, Bella threatens to move out of the house. Unlike the book, however, [[RageBreakingPoint Charlie finally has enough and declares that after everything she had put him and herself through, she was most certainly leaving within the hour]]. He also goes on a [[TranquilFury calm tirade]] that seems to borderline TheReasonYouSuckSpeech for most of the fic, calling her out on every shitty thing she had done up to that point (running away from home while Charlie was at a friend's funeral, treating him like "the desk clerk in a cockroach-ridden motel you're deigning to stay at because you don't have a better option", ignoring her friends in favor of Edward) while criticizing her relationship with Edward, whom Charlie (quite accurately) calls an "abusive fucktard." All Bella can really do is protest and meekly plead with him not to throw her out, while Charlie also adds that Bella's mom also doesn't want Bella to live with her, either, because of Bella's ControlFreak tendencies.
** To make it even sweeter, Charlie also points out to Bella that because of her 6-month HeroicBSOD, [[RealityEnsues she is failing all of her classes and has a GPA of 1.3, her truck requires extensive repairs from driving through the woods and not doing regular maintenance, she lost her job because of her attitude towards customers and for stealing from the storeroom, her motorcycle was impounded because she didn't have a license to drive it, and that she has next to no job options because of her failing high school and not able to get a diploma.]]
** Also applies to the Cullens, too. When Bella declares that she'll go to the Cullens, saying that they are her "real family", Charlie tells her in an almost gleeful manner that they are nearly broke. Turns out that Fiction500 [[RealityEnsues doesn't apply when only one person works and the whole family has expensive tastes]] (especially when the average income would be only close to $200,000 yearly, [[ShownTheirWork as the author researched, along with car maintenance for Bella's truck]]).
--> [[OnlySaneMan Charlie]]: [[ThisIsReality Get real, Bella.]] [[RealityEnsues No one has that much money to burn.]]
** And the cherry on top of the fic is Charlie being aware of Edward hiding in the closet and drops a subtle hint to him as Charlie wraps up his rant to Bella that Bella is just using him and probably doesn't know the first thing about Edward. Not even a few minutes after Charlie walks downstairs, Edward and Bella have an offscreen (and loud) argument that leads to Edward breaking up with Bella for good, realizing that she was just using him to become a vampire.
** [[WordOfGod According to the author of the fic]], the Cullens are also under investigation for insider trading and potential drug involvement, which Charlie is happy about, "sick of the Cullens, their mind games, and the way they acted as if money was a get-out-of-everything-free card." In the headcanon, they flee to escape prosecution and end up being captured anyways when Alice blows their cover. Meanwhile, Bella gets a serious wake-up call around the same time when [[HeelRealization she is forced to admit that her father wasn't telling people not to give her help with her predicament and that she is hated for her own actions and behavior.]] Unlike the Cullens, however, [[CharacterDevelopment Bella eventually grows out of her bratty behavior and matures.]]
* The author of ''Fanfic/SonOfTheSannin'' makes it clear how much he dislikes Danzo Shimura. Over the course of the story, Jiraiya takes a jab at Danzo whenever he has the chance.

* Most fans of the LEGO toys hate the DUPLO toys sold by LEGO, so DUPLO got insulted in ''WesternAnimation/TheLegoMovie'' when the DUPLO toys [[spoiler: come to Bricksburg and announce that they're going to destroy all of the characters on the good side]].
* Many fans of Ride/DisneyThemeParks feel ''It's A Small World'' TastesLikeDiabetes. Disney itself has acknowledged this, throwing in a joke about in ''Disney/TheLionKing''.
-->'''Scar''': Don't be so glum, Zazu. Sing something with a little more ''bounce'' to it.\\

* In the [[Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000 MST3K]] version of ''Film/DeathstalkerAndTheWarriorsFromHell'', when Deathstalker is repeatedly knocked out, Mike and bots cheer loud and repeatedly. Crow says it best when the guy has barely spoken two lines and asks, "Is it too early to hate this guy?"
* A scene from ''Film/GodzillaFinalWars'' features a [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome truly epic]] TakeThat against the much maligned [[Film/{{Godzilla 1998}} American Godzilla]]. [[CurbStompBattle He's taken down in just twenty seconds; the shortest fight scene in the entire film.]] After an initial VillainousBreakdown, the Xilian General [[WeHaveReserves doesn't care much]] and decides [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness it has outlived its usefulness]].
-->'''Xilian General''': I knew that tuna-eating monster was useless.
** They also [[StylisticSuck intentionally depicted Zilla with poor CGI]]. And yes, they took the "God" part out of his name.
* After the massive {{Hatedom}} directed at Jar Jar Binks in ''Film/ThePhantomMenace'', his only action in the rest of the sequel films is [[UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom positioning Palpatine to rise to totalitarian power]] and form TheEmpire. Not only that, but there was also meant to be a scene in ''Revenge Of The Sith'' where he basically gets shown just how much he screwed up and is left devastated. By the time of the Empire's final defeat at the Battle of Jakku, he's a street performer on Naboo who's been ostracized by society for his contribution to the rise of the Empire.
** In the old EU, the New Republic tends to be an inept government that barely does anything useful in its run, and its members tend to be {{Obstructive Bureaucrat}}s that hamper the heroes who are trying to stop the latest threat in the galaxy. In ''Film/TheForceAwakens'' the New Republic ignores the Resistance warnings of the First Order's military build up, and its capital world gets destroyed when the First Order uses its Starkiller superweapon.
* ''Film/BillyMadison'', when the O'Doyle family gets wiped out in the car crash.
-->'''The O'Doyles:''' O'Doyle rules! O'Doyle rules! O'Doyle rules! O'Doyle rules! O'Doyle rules! O'Doyle rules! O'Doyle rules! O'Doyle rules! (CRASH)
* MTV created the ''Film/MySuperPsychoSweet16'' series for one reason: to provide everyone who hated the [[AlphaBitch girls]] featured on the reality TV show ''Series/MySuperSweetSixteen'' with some sweet, ''sweet'' CatharsisFactor.
* ''Film/PumaMan'', when Vadinho punches Tony, knocking him out.
-->'''[[Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000 Tom Servo]]:''' Yes! The Aztec speaks for all of us!
* Love or hate the ''Film/ResidentEvil'' films, one can't deny that Wesker bringing Alice back to normal and killing off the clone Alices in ''Film/ResidentEvilAfterlife'' brought a smile to the faces of those who hated the way Alice became a GodModeSue in the previous films. She still has the [[ImprobableAimingSkills standard]] action hero [[MadeOfIron powers]], but at least no more psychic nonsense.
** Writer/director Paul W.S. Anderson may have even slipped in a stealth admission of his own writing screwup with Alice, in the form of what Wesker says to her while he [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown kicks her ass.]] "I'm what [[GodModeSue you]] used to be, only better."
** Sadly, Alice remains a BlackHoleSue and a GodModeSue, when the film still refuses to allow anybody but her to do anything cool and depicts the rest of the cast as helpless. And the end of the next film, Wesker gives her back her powers.
* A lot of people did not like Detective Hoffman [[ReplacementScrappy replacing Jigsaw]] late in the ''Franchise/{{Saw}}'' series, so [[spoiler:having him chained to a wall in ''Film/Saw3D'' with no means of escape by Dr. Gordon made it oh so sweet for some of the fans]].
* In ''Film/ScoobyDoo'', Scrappy-Doo is [[spoiler:the villain and Scooby actually punches him]]. Earlier on the gang have a fond flashback to how horrible having Scrappy around was, along with how glad they are he isn't around anymore. [[UnintentionallySympathetic This actually went too far for some, though]], since the flashback involved Scooby, who was described as being Scrappy's guardian, agreeing to ''abandon him in the middle of a desert highway''.
* In ''Film/SuperheroMovie'' the parody of J. Jonah Jameson looked like he was in charge of a newspaper who starts shouting that he knows everything, then he gets dragged out by a pair of orderlies, and the real guy in charge says that they share the building with a mental ward.
* In ''Film/ThisIsTheEnd'', Creator/MichaelCera (playing himself) gets slapped by {{Music/Rihanna}}. Later on, he dies a horrible death by being impaled by a lightpost and falling into a hole leading down to the Earth's core.
* Narrowly averted in ''Film/TransformersDarkOfTheMoon'', which was going to contain a scene where [[EthnicScrappy Mudflap and Skids]] were killed off [[spoiler: during Sentinel Prime raiding NEST]]. The scene, and their presence in the movie was cut for pacing. The scene does appear in IDW's comic book adaptation of the movie, playing the trope straight.
* A subtle example in ''Film/JurassicWorld''; ''Spinosaurus'', the [[Film/JurassicParkIII previous film's]] [[VillainSue antagonist]] was not very well-liked to say the least. In ''Jurassic World'', not only is she left off of the list of attractions, but the only sign of existence of her species anywhere is a skeleton propped up in Jurassic World's Main Street. To add insult to injury, [[spoiler:that skeleton is ''destroyed'' near the end of the film, by ''Tyrannosaurus rex'' herself]].
** The Dinosaur Protection Group tie-in website for ''Film/JurassicWorldFallenKingdom'' reveals that some of the dinosaurs that were first seen in the sequels have gone extinct (again). Among them is ''Spinosaurus''.
* [[spoiler:Alfrid's death]] in the extended cut for ''Film/TheHobbitTheBattleOfTheFiveArmies'' via suffocation by troll was met with fan-rejoicing everywhere. In fact at some screenings, the audiences actually cheered! Never has a death [[KarmicDeath been so satisfying]] and [[CrowningMomentofFunny ridiculous]].

* ''Literature/{{Divergent}}'':
** If Peter, Molly, and Drew do something to irritate you, just breathe a sigh of relief that they'll be humiliated for it later by Tris' hands.
** Marcus gets one in ''Insurgent'' when Tobias gets laughed at for fearing him. So, to prove that he's no coward, [[spoiler: he gives Marcus a well-deserved beat-down]].
* AnnoyingYoungerSibling characters in ''Literature/{{Goosebumps}}'' more often than not get the Scrappy treatment from fans, mostly because they tend to get KarmaHoudini status. Which is why many cheered when Tara Webster from ''The Cuckoo Clock of Doom''–arguably the worst of the lot–ends the book [[spoiler: ''[[RetGone erased from existence]]'' thanks to her birth year being absent from the titular clock, with the implication that the main character isn't going to try and save her.]]
* In ''Literature/{{Nevermore}}''. [[spoiler:Maya has her throat torn out by a cloned Ari, and Dylan goes berserk, terrorizes a city and ''tries to strangle Fang'']].
* ''Literature/StarTrekFederation'' makes Wesley Crusher its ButtMonkey. First, he got sent on a SnipeHunt by Geordi offscreen (the conversation that reveals this gives us a "Shut up, Wesley," though not in those exact words, from Riker), then he suffers lung injuries in an ExplosiveDecompression, then [[spoiler:[[BigBad Adrik Thorsen]] threatens to kill him to get the rest of the crew to comply]].
** Another Trek novel, ''Strike Zone'', goes after Dr Pulaski (while, admittedly, [[CharacterShilling shilling Wesley]]; can't win 'em all), by allowing [[TinMan Data]] to ''finally'' fire back. When Wesley tells Data what he just said was an insult, Data can only reply "Good".
--->'''Pulaski:''' Why, thank you, Data. I certainly hope you'll be able to store it away somewhere.\\
'''Data:''' And I hope you will as well, Doctor.\\
'''Pulaski:''' Well, Data, not being a machine, I wouldn't know where.\\
'''Data:''' I think, Doctor, you know where you can store it.
* In the ''Franchise/StarWarsExpandedUniverse'', both Mara and Corran go into rants about [[Literature/JediAcademyTrilogy Kyp Durron]] and how he [[KarmaHoudini literally got away with planetcide]]. ...Actually, the whole of the EU to feature him after that trilogy counts. He can NeverLiveItDown.
** And then Callista dies in ''Literature/FateOfTheJedi''.
** The Ewoks also get one in the guidebook ''The Essential Guide to Warfare'', from an Imperial soldier (Hume Tarl). From the way he was talking about them from his experiences of the Battle of Endor, he made it seem as though they relished in massacring people, and was deeply angered at the fact that the Rebels did not condemn the Ewoks for this savagery, referring to them as hypocrites.
* In ''Breaking Dawn'', the final ''Literature/{{Twilight}}'' novel, there's one brief, shining moment when Leah chews Bella out for leading Jacob on like she has been. It happens offscreen and the reader is supposed to hate Leah for it, but it's still something.
* The [[Creator/ErinHunter author]] of ''Literature/WarriorCats'' [[WordOfGod confirmed]] that she killed off [[spoiler: Ferncloud]] in ''The Last Hope'' because of said character being unpopular among the fanbase.
** Interesting fact: the character died doing the opposite of what she was hated for. [[spoiler: she was hated for staying in the nursery and not fighting, but died in the biggest battle the Clans have ever faced.]]

[[folder:Live Action TV]]
* ''Series/AmericanGothic1995'' had a case that combined this with WriterRevolt. Part way through the series, executives demanded that the major character of Dr. Matt Crower be written out because they thought that he wasn't assertive enough to be an antagonist for the diabolical Lucas Buck, missing the point that he was meant to show that the best way of fighting evil is not to be equally malicious and violent back. They imposed his replacement with Dr. Billy Peele, who was a cliched, tiresomely "rebellious" and manly hero. In the final episodes of the series, it was revealed that [[spoiler:the arc that appeared to be him [[SexFaceTurn bringing Lucas's girlfriend Selena over to the side of good with his dick]] was actually leading up to Selena trying to kill Lucas and framing Billy for it]].
* ''Series/BigBrother 16 (US)'' gave the viewers a chance to deliver one to Frankie Grande. He believed that he was the most liked houseguest in the house... this couldn't be further from the truth when the viewers choice award had him ''nowhere'' near the top three. For many viewers, the look on Frankie's face was worth a predictable end to a boring season.
* ''Series/TheBradyBunch'': Took a jab at CousinOliver in ''Film/AVeryBradySequel'': [[spoiler:After Bobby unsuccessfully stops him from running out into the street after Tiger, he and Cindy hear a car screech. Instead of checking for an accident, Bobby and Cindy shrug their shoulders and continue eating]].
* ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer'':
** Happens multiple times with Dawn:
*** In the last issue of [[ComicBook/BuffyTheVampireSlayer season 8]] she refers to herself as the former "[[TheScrappy Scrappy-Doo]]" of the gang.
*** In "[[Recap/BuffyTheVampireSlayerS6E7OnceMoreWithFeeling Once More, With Feeling]]", she starts to sing a whiny song about how no-one notices or cares about her. She is kidnapped by the villain's henchmen before she sings more than two lines. (Although this was largely because the actress didn't want to sing, it's still pretty satisfying.)
*** In "[[Recap/BuffyTheVampireSlayerS6E21TwoToGo Two to Go]]", Dark Willow calls Dawn out for her constant whining and offers to [[ItMakesSenseInContext turn her back into her native form of a ball of energy]], just to put a stop to it.
---->Wanna go back? End the pain? You'll be happier. I'd be happier. We'll all be a lot happier without having to listen to all your constant whining. "Mom! Buffy! Tara! ''Wah!''"
** In ''Season 9'' #13 Buffy gives Kennedy a black eye by punching her in the face.
* ''Series/CoronationStreet'':
** After surviving a Minor Car Crash, Janice Battersby acts like even more of a SpoiledBrat than ever, and goes about ruining Sally Webster's work. Sally finally snaps and punches her in the nose. Not only that but it went further by Danny Baldwin firing Janice (again), and not one person sprang to her defense.
** Rosie Webster is more or less a walking example.
* ''Series/DoctorWho'':
** The Doctor certainly has some choice words for Adric and his dubious behavior in "[[Recap/DoctorWhoS19E2FourToDoomsday Four to Doomsday:]]"
--->'''Fifth Doctor:''' Now listen to me, you young idiot, you're not so much gullible as idealistic. I suppose it comes from your deprived delinquent background.
*** And earlier in the same story, ''Nyssa'' tells him to shut up.
** In an extra on the DVD version of "[[Recap/DoctorWhoS19E6Earthshock Earthshock]]", Adric ''survives'' the spaceship crash, lands on prehistoric Earth... and is promptly eaten by a Tyrannosaurus. A detached Cyberman head remarks, "Excellent".
** On ''Whovians'', host Rove McManus claims that the Cybermen were the heroes in "Earthshock" because they killed Adric.
* ''[[Series/TheFlash2014 The Flash]]'':

** The first ''Flash'' episode after ''Series/CrisisOnEarthX'' has Iris throw shade on [[spoiler:[[Series/{{Arrow}} Oliver and Felicity]] hijacking her and Barry's wedding]]. For further hilarity, Barry doesn't even try to defend them, silently agreeing with her and announcing that [[spoiler:he's putting their wedding gift (which wasn't even on Barry and Iris' wedding registry anyway) into the "return" pile]]. Think of it on a Meta level, [[spoiler: that "[[MorePopularSpinoff The Flash]]" isn't too happy with "Arrow" either. Looks like some drama is unfolding in the ''Series/{{Arrowverse}}''.]]
* ''Series/GameOfThrones'': The Season 6 finale sees Lady Olenna Tyrell meeting with Ellaria Sand and her three Sand Snakes - the young, arrogant FauxActionGirl characters - and in under a minute she tells them all to shut up so she can talk to their mother; "You look like an angry little boy, don't presume to tell me what I need"; "Anything from you? No? Good, let the grown women speak". In Season 7 [[spoiler:Obara and Nymeria are killed by Euron Greyjoy--with their own weapons, no less, while Ellaria and her daughter, Tyene, are captured. They're returned to King's Landing where Cersei [[PayEvilUntoEvil forces Tyene to ingest the same poison Ellaria used to murder Myrcella, then informs Ellaria she'll be kept along for as long as possible to watch her daughter die]] to know the pain she caused Cersei.]]
** He hardly qualified as a true TheScrappy character, but most fans of the TV adaptation rejoiced and posted videos of the celebratory dances during the infamous Purple Wedding [[spoiler: when Joffrey Baratheon is poisoned and dies horribly in the arms of his desperate mother]]
** After Jon is [[spoiler: resurrected by Melisandre]], he orders all the brothers responsible to be hanged, which was met by a lot of rejoicing from the fandom, especially Olly. (Though Jon himself didn't feel great about it.)
* ''Series/{{Glee}}'': In Season 4, Brittany goes all Music/BritneySpears and beats the crap out of Jacob Ben Israel with an umbrella to the joy of fans.
* ''Series/GossipGirl'':
** Vanessa gets a lot of this from Blair, who hates her.
** Dan used to get his share of this too, mainly from Chuck and Blair. By season five he's become too much of a Mary Sue for this to happen more than rarely.
*** In season six [[CreatorsPet the showrunner who openly admitted that Dan was his self-insert]] had been fired and attempts were made to make up for the damage caused. Most fans cheered when Nate [[MomentOfAwesome punched Dan in the face]], declaring "''[[LeaningOnTheFourthWall That was for all of us]]''".
* ''Series/HappyDays'': One 1975 episode has Fonzie in police gear just long enough to stem a possible gang war. When a gang member takes notice of Ralph, Potsie and Richie:
-->'''Gang member:''' Who are these nerds?\\
'''Fonzie:''' These are not nerds, these are my friends.\\
'''Potsie:''' (''defiantly'') Yeah!\\
'''Fonzie:''' (''to Potsie'') Shut up, nerd!
* ''Series/{{House}}'': The series' original Scrappy, Dr. Allison Cameron:
** There's a season 1 episode where Cameron forces House to go on a date with her. During the date, House goes on a rant about how she has a complex requiring her to fall in love with "broken" guys (her ex-husband, who was dying when they got married, and House himself) and try to fix them.
** She got up on her high horse once again in an early season three episode, prompting Cuddy to channel the viewers and comment: "She's not nearly as delightful as she thinks she is." However, the resolution of the story shows that Cameron was right and Cuddy was wrong.
* ''Series/LawAndOrderSpecialVictimsUnit'': Had almost nothing ''but'' these for Dale Stuckey during his run. Perhaps the ultimate example of this towards him was in "Zebras" where he (having already screwed up an open-and-shut case) made a comment that provoked Stabler into angrily shoving him. When he complained about it, Cragen simply blew him off.
* ''Series/LegendsOfTomorrow'': The episode "Doomworld" sees [[spoiler:a brainwashed Sara Lance break the neck of resident ''Arrow'' Scrappy Felicity Smoak in the alternate timeline.]]
* ''Series/{{Lost}}'':
** Widmore's henchman, Zoe, in season 6, is widely hated for being a pointless, annoying character, eating up valuable screen time...and also for the actress claiming that she's the key to all the show's themes and is on "every page" of the series finale [[note]]Apparently the "every page" referred to [[http://nymag.com/daily/entertainment/2010/03/losts_zoe_explains_herself.html the watermark on her script]].[[/note]]. [[spoiler: In the penultimate episode, The Man in Black violently slits her throat, killing her and pleasing everyone who hated her.]]
** WordOfGod is that Paolo and Nikki's [[BuriedAlive manner of death]] was a direct response to their Scrappy status. In season 3:
--->'''Hurley:''' Dude, Nikki's dead.\\
'''Sawyer:''' Who the hell is Nikki?
** Giving an amusing CallBack in Series 6, when Miles rebuffs Ben's offer of a $3.2 million bribe from the previous season, pointing out that he's now aware of a grave containing "a couple of jabronies" named Nikki and Paulo who got buried alive with $8 million worth of diamonds. To add further insult to injury, he apparently unceremoniously dug them up shortly afterwards, since he's shown with the diamonds at the end of the episode.
* ''Series/{{Nashville}}'': In "Your Wild Life's Gonna Get You Down," many viewers felt Juliette's impression of Scarlett was simply saying what they were thinking:
-->'''Juliette''' ''(to Avery)'': Is she always so squirrelly? ''(proceeds to imitate a squirrel, [[http://twitpic.com/dznilh as shown here]])''
* ''Series/PowerRangersRPM'': When exploring ruins, [[TheDragon Tenaya7]] finds a battered ''[[Series/PowerRangersOperationOverdrive Operation Overdrive]]'' Red Ranger helmet and, without too much thought, tosses it aside. Now, this can be seen as a ContinuityNod, showing what happened to other Rangers who tried to stop [[BigBad Venjix]]. But you gotta wonder if this was deliberate: out of all the 15 previous ''Franchise/PowerRangers'' teams available, the one they explicitly showed to have died was the one from the most reviled season of the franchise.
* ''Series/{{Revolution}}'':
** Those who think of Charlie Matheson as TheScrappy probably cheered every time Miles Matheson chewed her out ("[[Recap/RevolutionS1E5SoulTrain Soul Train]]"), and when Drexel punched her in the face hard enough to leave a mark ("[[Recap/RevolutionS1E6SexAndDrugs Sex and Drugs]]"). In "[[Recap/RevolutionS1E12Ghosts Ghosts]]", Rachel Matheson ends up slapping Charlie, but by that point, viewers seemed to become so accepting of Charlie that Rachel ended being the unsympathetic one.
** People who hated Danny Matheson probably enjoyed the beatdown he got from Private Richards in "[[Recap/RevolutionS1E3NoQuarter No Quarter]]". Still, [[spoiler: his death]] in "[[Recap/RevolutionS1E11TheStand The Stand]]" did not cause rejoicing. In fact, it created a lot of sadness.
** Rachel became pretty despised after episode 11, and slapping Charlie was just the tip of the iceberg. "[[Recap/RevolutionS1E16TheLoveBoat The Love Boat]]" did have her getting a broken leg, which wouldn't have happened if it weren't for a screw-up she made.
** Mia Clayton in "[[Recap/RevolutionS1E8TiesThatBind Ties That Bind]]" certainly made no attempt at sympathy. She cranked up ItsAllAboutMe to its highest setting, and wanted her sister Nora to forget everything and come with her back to Texas. Then it turns out that she's a mole, a bounty hunter who handed over a lot of rebels to the Monroe Republic, and worked for the psychopath Will Strausser. Nora was so disgusted with her little sister and her pathetic excuses that she decided to just flip her off and leave her to go back to Texas all alone.
* ''Series/RobinHood'':
** Robin decides to work with Isabella, resulting in a snide: "She always gets what she wants" remark from ClingyJealousGirl Kate. Robin irritably snaps: "Just leave it Kate!" Unfortunately, like the Wesley example below, Kate is eventually proved irrefutably right in her insistence that Isabella can't be trusted, and gets to say "Maybe next time you'll listen to me" and "I told you so," as well as receive an influx of CreatorsPet-shilling when Little John calls her "a treasure" and Robin tells her that she's "brave, compassionate and beautiful" before making out with her. This is ''after'' Kate [[DesignatedHero demands that Isabella be left to get raped and strangled at the hands of her abusive husband.]] Still, Robin's "shut up" was nice while it lasted....
** Several episodes later though, when Isabella's brother Guy joins the team, he calmly informs Kate: "You don't have to like me. ''I'' don't like ''you.''"
** In the GrandFinale of the show, Robin discovers [[spoiler:that he's been fatally poisoned]]. Kate attempts to give him a LastKiss, but he deliberately turns his face away, and a few moments later [[spoiler:is [[TogetherInDeath reunited with Marian]]]]. Kate has to settle for a one-armed hug, and when Robin leaves to [[spoiler:[[DyingAlone die alone]]]], he ''doesn't even look back''.
* ''Series/{{Scream|TVSeries}}'':
** On the first season of Piper Shaw was among the most hated characters on the show, seeming to serve little purpose in the plot except as a RedHerring. [[spoiler:As such, it wasn't hard to [[IKnewIt figure out that she was the killer]] several episodes before TheReveal, which wasn't helped by her backstory and motive being very similar to ''Film/{{Scream 3}}''[='=]s Roman, himself the most hated killer in the film franchise.]] The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z-6vLCO7vRU very first seven minutes]] of the second season wasted little time making fun of her.
--->'''Girl in theater:''' It's so crazy how [[spoiler:no one even suspected Piper]], right? That's what everyone says.\\
'''Audrey:''' [[SarcasmMode You know, that's what they say.]]
** The same episode features Jake Fitzgerald, [[JerkJock one of the most annoying douchebags in the show]], breaking up with Brooke. At the end of the season premiere, [[spoiler:he's hung upside-down and disemboweled with a scythe]].
** Haley Meyers was a [[AlphaBitch complete bitch]] who did nothing but bad-mouth ''everyone'' in every single scene she was in. Eventually, Emma slaps her silly after one too many comments, and in the ninth episode of season two, [[spoiler:she's violently stabbed to death by the killer]].
* ''Series/{{Smallville}}'': In the fandom, Lana Lang is almost universally loathed. Her constant hypocrisy, passive-aggressive behavior, and manipulation of both Clark, and her own best friend Chloe, caused most viewers to despise the character, to the point where whenever Lana would bumble her way into a dangerous situation with the MonsterOfTheWeek (an almost weekly occurrence), many fans seemed to view it as this trope. But perhaps the biggest example was the scene where Lionel Luthor, [[FreakyFridayFlip while trapped in Clark's body]], notices Lana approaching, and rolls his eyes, growling "''This'' one." Doubles as a CrowningMomentOfFunny. Mind you, Lionel was still the BigBad at that point, so presumably the showrunners were hoping that fans would view Lionel as being obviously wrong, and sympathize with Lana instead. It didn't work, a fact not helped by Lionel being a [[EnsembleDarkhorse fan favorite]].
* ''Series/SoRandom'': In one episode, there is a ''Series/WheelOfFortune'' skit that ends with Vanna hitting WebVideo/{{Fred}} (Who is one of the contestants) in the head with a piece of the set before [[LeaningOnTheFourthWall looking towards the camera and says "You're welcome, America."]]
* ''Series/StarTrekTheNextGeneration'': It's no secret that Wesley Crusher wasn't just a Scrappy, but one of the most infamous examples of a CreatorsPet on television, who earned the wrath of many a fan for being presumptuous, {{Wangst}}y, ceaselessly saving the day and surrounded with way too much CharacterShilling. So on the somewhat rare occasions this trope happens, it ends up being pretty popular with fans.
** One mistaken example is in the episode "[[Recap/StarTrekTheNextGenerationS1E12Datalore Datalore]]". At one point Picard yells a big loud "Shut up, Wesley!" - and moments later, Beverly Crusher, ''his own mother,'' says the exact same thing to him - but in the end, it's only so that it [[CreatorsPet makes Wesley look more heroic]] [[NotNowKiddo when he insists on being heard]], and when he's ''still'' ignored, he goes against Picard's orders and as a result, and saves the ship and everyone on it from being killed. Nonetheless, it was just about one of the funniest scenes that season, and satisfying to hear. (Wesley himself, Creator/WilWheaton, wrote that there are ''Franchise/StarTrek'' fans who put their children through college on the proceeds of selling t-shirts and badges reading "Shut up, Wesley!")
** An arguably better example comes in the season 3 episode "Sins Of The Father," where Klingon commander [[spoiler:and Worf's brother]] Kurn shows up on the ship and immediately imposes Klingon-style discipline on the crew. For example, one of the first things he does on the bridge is spot Wesley chattering to a fellow ensign, and shout '''"Do you wish to SPEAK, Acting Ensign Wesley Crusher?!?"''' Wesley's awfully quiet after that.
** In the novel ''Contagion'', Troi and Worf are assigned to investigate a murder, and enlist Wesley to assist. He gets stuffed into an airtight container and left for dead. He does manage to rig up an alert from the inside, but it's a near thing.
** The crowning example happens in "The First Duty" in season 5, which demonstrates that Wesley is no longer in any way a CreatorsPet who can never do any wrong. Picard discovers Wesley is complicit in covering for his teammates after a flight demonstration goes wrong, leaving one cadet killed. [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech Picard then takes him down about a hundred pegs]]:
-->'''Picard:''' [[TitleDrop The first duty]] of every Starfleet officer is to the truth. Whether it's scientific truth, or historical truth, or personal truth. It is the ''guiding principle'' upon which Starfleet is based. If you can't find it within yourself to stand up and tell the truth about what happened, '''you don't deserve to wear that uniform!''' I'm going to make this simple for you, Mister Crusher. [[IfYouWontIWill Either you come forward and tell Admiral Brand what really took place, or I will.]]
-->'''Wesley:''' Captain-
-->'''Picard:''' '''[[GetOut Dismissed!!!]]'''
* ''Series/StarTrekVoyager'': Happened a couple of times:
** In "[[Recap/StarTrekVoyagerS2E23TheThaw The Thaw]]", the crew are in the middle of a difficult debate on the nature of fear, trying to find a way to deal with a MonsterClown that has taken over a LotusEaterMachine and is capable of physically scaring the inhabitants to death. Neelix suggests telling jokes to overcome the MonsterClown, under the reasoning that laughter overcomes fear. The rest of the crew just stare at him with a collective look of irritated disgust as he splutters out mid-sentence, realising how badly his idea is going over with everyone. Unfortunately for the audience, not only doesn't this happen ''every'' time Neelix's opens his mouth, but it's actually one of his ''[[DamnedByFaintPraise better]]'' ideas and at least has some degree of logic to it.
** In "[[Recap/StarTrekVoyagerS2E16Meld Meld]]", Tuvok fears he is losing his self-control after a mind-meld with a psychopath. He decides to test the limits of his self-control by exposing himself to the circumstances that he thinks are most likely to make him snap by simulating them on the holodeck. His choice? Having to share a room with Neelix at his most obnoxious. Needless to say, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VWlv_02fRyY he discovers what his limit is]].
** In "Rise," Tuvok chastises Neelix for wasting time in idle conversation when they're under serious pressure to repair an orbital tether so they can escape a disaster. The {{Aesop}} of the episode is that Tuvok needs to lighten up and be friendlier to his coworkers, but it's pretty hard to see the situation they're in and not think, "Seriously, Neelix, just shut up and do your job for once."
** Tuvok's full-time job later on was basically being annoyed at Neelix, as evidenced in "The Haunting of Deck Twelve":
--->'''Neelix''': Did I ever tell you about the Savaxia?\\
'''Tuvok''': If I say yes, will it prevent you from telling a story?
** "Q2" has Q's son shut up Neelix by removing his vocal cords and leaving him mouthless.
** "Barge Of The Dead" had B'Elanna going on ([[MaybeMagicMaybeMundane or hallucinating]]) a voyage to Klingon Hell. The first thing she sees once she passes the threshold? ''Voyager'', completely empty save for the "Ambassador to the Recently Deceased" taking the form of, you guessed it, Neelix.
** The Kazon, the main enemy culture from the first couple of seasons, were probably the least popular recurring alien race in the franchise's history, as they were considered a dull and derivative "like Klingons, but even more gratuitously violent and as thick as two short planks". After they were dropped, Seven of Nine later reveals that the Borg actually '''refused''' to assimilate the Kazon, as it would make them weaker. Since the Borg had no qualms about attempting to assimilate Neelix's race, that's ''saying'' something.
* While fellow Scrappies [[spoiler:Bela, Jo, and Metatron]] on ''Series/{{Supernatural}}'' all found either sufficient [[AlasPoorScrappy pity]] or [[RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap redemption]] in the eyes of enough fans to escape this fate, [[spoiler:the demon Ruby]] most definitely did not, starting an [[SmugSnake especially smug]] round of EvilGloating before quickly suffering a short but painful death on the end of their own WeaponOfChoice as their UnwittingPawn turns on them to assist in their death and their killer adds insult to injury by literally twisting the knife in the wound in what is easily the most drawn-out kill of many kills with that weapon. While their EvilPlan was ultimately successful, the fans were still thrilled by [[spoiler:the Winchesters brothers reconciling long enough to kill her]] and list it as the CrowningMomentOfAwesome of the episode.
* ''Series/TwentyFour'':
** The lackluster seventh season does have one very nice moment late on where Jack Bauer gives a verbal smackdown to local bitch Janis Gold when her bitchiness gets a bit too much for everyone.
** Then there was SmugSnake Marianne Taylor, who was despised by pretty much everybody, in and out universe. So many fans were very happy when she was shot to death.
* A rare example where this is done to a ScrappyMechanic. Many of the contestants hated the random Cashword game that would appear in ''Series/{{Password}}''. Betty White in particular hated the Cashword game, and during the finale, ''demolished'' the toaster that was used as a prop for the game.

[[folder:Professional Wrestling]]
* In Wrestling/{{WCW}}, a match where the team of Sean O'Haire and Chuck Palumbo beat the team of Wrestling/LexLuger and Buff Bagwell [[SquashMatch in 56 seconds.]]
* Wrestling/MickFoley pulled one on his last night at Wrestling/{{TNA}} on [[DumbassDJ Bubba the Love Sponge]]. As he was finishing saying his goodbyes to the roster, Bubba gets in Mick's face and tries to interview him. Mick brushes him off and Bubba then mocks him for getting fired. Foley proceeds to do what every TNA fan has been wanting to do for a while... knock [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YnqHCvoqVkA Bubba the Love Sponge on his ass.]]
* Wrestling/MichelleMcCool superkicking Wrestling/{{Hornswoggle}} on the October 1st 2010 episode of ''Wrestling/WWESmackdown''. This one may have been unintentional and actually an attempt for cheap heat by having Michelle attack the diminutive one. YMMV on whether it worked, given that Hornswoggle is one of the few Scrappies bigger than Michelle.
** Prior to that was an occasion when JBL not only managed to trap Hornswoggle in a steel cage match with him but was also sufficiently GenreSavvy to anticipate the interference of his protector Finlay, intercepting him and handcuffing him to keep him out of the way. What followed is pretty much the only time when Hornswoggle has received a beating instead of escaping or getting help.
* Wrestling/TheUndertaker Tombstoning Wrestling/JohnCena after the latter tagged himself in to steal the win for their team during their three-way tag team match against their two respective title contenders (Taker and Cena were respectively the World Heavyweight and WWE champions at that time) [[Wrestling/ChrisJericho Jeri]]-[[Wrestling/TheBigShow Show]] and Wrestling/DGenerationX ([[Wrestling/ShawnMichaels HBK]] and [[Wrestling/TripleH HHH]]].
* Wrestling/TheMiz to Wrestling/{{Maryse}} at ''Night of Champions'':
-->'''Miz:''' You're not a champion, you're a tease. You had your chance with me and you butchered it, just like you butcher the English language every time you open your mouth.
** Ironic, now that Maryse has announced her engagement to Miz in RealLife.
* From one Scrappy to another:
-->'''Maryse:''' Oh my God, Michael Cole, you vintage nerd.
* Pretty much any time someone takes a shot at Wrestling/MichaelCole. He got the mother of all of them at ''Over The Limit'' 2011. He lost a "Kiss My Foot Match" to Wrestling/JerryLawler and had the following things happen to him: [[HumiliationConga he got his pants ripped off]], Wrestling/EveTorres [[HumiliationConga came out and performed a moonsault on him,]] Wrestling/JimRoss [[HumiliationConga poured barbecue sauce all over him,]] Wrestling/BretHart [[HumiliationConga made him tap out to the Sharpshooter, and Lawler stuck his foot in his mouth]].
* Wrestling/{{Melina}} being the first eliminated from a #1 contender's battle royal after weeks of being a GodModeSue.
* Michelle [=McCool=] losing her Divas Championship to Wrestling/NatalyaNeidhart in spite of having help.
* At the 2011 Extreme Rules PPV, not only does Michelle [=McCool=] end up losing a "loser leaves the WWE" match, but after the match, she gets attacked by the debuting [[Wrestling/KiaStevens Kharma]] (who is better known by her TNA name, Awesome Kong).
* [[Wrestling/JimFullington The Sandman]] beating [[Wrestling/NickDinsmore Eugene]] with a kendo stick when he went to give him a hug at ''Wrestling/{{ECW}} One Night Stand 2006''.
* Happened to [[Wrestling/SeanWaltman X-Pac]], trope namer for XPacHeat. Wrestling/{{Goldust}}, parodying [[Series/CrocodileHunter Crocodile Hunter Steve Irwin]], went into the Wrestling/NewWorldOrder locker room and got caught by X-Pac, which led to him saying this. Can be seen here. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=4&v=94lBU60AlCU]]
-->It is the rare... bandanna-wearing grease rat! But be very careful - they tend to suck!
* {{Heel}}s are often deliberately written to be pathetic and obnoxious. After all, you're supposed to hate them, right? Its pretty much standard procedure for {{face}}s to call them out on it and generally mock them when it comes time for promos.
* WWE had a midcarder named Orlando Jordan who management was high on, but who hadn't connected with the fans as either a face or a heel. They booked him to win the U.S. Title from Wrestling/ChrisBenoit semi-clean, which turned apathy into intense dislike. WWE decided to throw the angry fans a bone, and had Jordan drop the title back to Benoit in under a minute. They then ran a series of matches in which Benoit repeatedly beat Jordan in mere seconds.
* Wrestling/RomanReigns was TheChosenOne who would replace Wrestling/JohnCena as the face of the company, meaning also effectively have Cena's character. Disregarding the fact that "[[FanNickname SuperCena]]" is a massive BaseBreakingCharacter, it became fairly obvious that the character did not fit him and that he was nowhere near as talented as Cena. Not helping matters is the fact that he was the ReplacementScrappy for numerous [[EnsembleDarkhorse Ensemble Darkhorses]], including Wrestling/DanielBryan (the one everyone wanted to take Cena's place) and Wrestling/DeanAmbrose (the one everyone wanted to take Cena's place after Bryan was forced to retire). End result? Roman became the most hated wrestler in the company not named Wrestling/EvaMarie. But the company (Vince) was stubborn and kept pushing him anyway, trying to spin his negative reactions as something else, culminating in ''Wrestling/WrestleMania 32'', where Reigns won the title off mega-heel Wrestling/TripleH while being booed by 100,000 people. And the future of the company for the fans remaining seemed darker than ever.\\\
And then, not even three months into his reign, Roman violated the Wellness Policy, necessitating the company to take the belt off him as soon as possible and suspend him.\\\
It wouldn't become as obvious until later, but Vince, or someone high up the ladder, was pissed at him. ''A lot''. Roman lost his next title defense to Wrestling/SethRollins at ''Wrestling/MoneyInTheBank 2016'', who was then cashed in on by the aforementioned Ambrose to become the new WWE Champion. And he did so ''clean'' -- Roman hadn't lost clean in four years by that point, and that was in developmental. After setting up Wrestling/TheShield triple threat on ''RAW'' the following night, he was suspended (to the shock and delight of fans), and proceeded to go under a gradually more obvious HumiliationConga. First, Rollins constantly referenced to Roman's suspension during the build and took numerous shots at him. The company started to fully acknowledge the negative reactions he was getting. He came back for the triple threat at ''Battleground'', and went under a lot of punishment, including a patented Shield powerbomb from Ambrose and Rollins. He was pinned clean by Ambrose, who was then lifted up on the shoulders of Wrestling/TheUsos, Roman's cousins, during his win. The next night on RAW, he was verbally eviscerated by Wrestling/StephanieMcMahon for losing the title to ''[=SmackDown=]'', in front of the entire RAW roster. Then, just when it seems he'll get out of his funk by becoming the #1 Contender to the new Universal Title, he gets pinned clean ''again'', this time by Wrestling/FinnBalor, who had just debuted on the main roster. Roman's taken such a beating even people who hate him seem to start feeling sorry for him, though that's still in the minority.

[[folder:Software]]
* Microsoft Office 97 and 2000 were plagued with Clippy, an assistant paper clip who tries to help you [[AnnoyingVideoGameHelper whether you want it or not.]] As advertisement for Microsoft Office XP, [[http://youtu.be/NI2LVI4xgvs these]] [[http://youtu.be/bv0nxHad-Eg three]] [[http://youtu.be/z4ZvLYuLKcA videos]] (in which the paperclip was voiced by Creator/GilbertGottfried) were released by Microsoft.

[[folder:Tabletop Games]]
* In ''TabletopGame/MagicTheGathering'', the Onslaught set's version of Shock depicts a Psychatog being shocked by lightning, both in reference to the creature's time as a TierInducedScrappy. Also, Deep Analysis has art depicting a decapitated Masticore, with some great flavor text:
-->''The specimen [[StealthPun seems to be broken.]]''
** To a lesser extent, Magic R&Ds primary strategy for weakening dominant strategies, rather than banning cards which people put effort into acquiring, is to print cards in the next set that are very niche in their practicality, but usually devastating against the top deck. For example:
*** When the best card in the format was [[http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=174917 Blightning]], they printed [[http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=205075 Obstinate Baloth]] that could be pitched to Blightning to give you a big creature and offset the life loss.
*** When Faeries was the best deck, Conflux released a lot of [[http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=185828 cheaply-costed]] or [[http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=220512 hard to counter]] spells that wreaked havoc on hordes of small, flying creatures.
* In the TabletopGame/OldWorldOfDarkness, the eventual fate of the much-hated ghoul-werewolf-mage [[GodModeSue God Mode Stu]] Samuel Haight was...to have his spirit crafted into an ashtray.
* The ''Series/StarTrekTheNextGeneration'' CCG had a card with a picture of Wesley getting stabbed in the chest titled "Wesley Gets the Point." The card's effect was to kill Wesley Crusher if he was on a planet, even if he was on the other side of the spaceline. The player controlling him [[IncrediblyLamePun scores one point]].
* An odd case: [[OurDwarvesAreAllTheSame the Squats]] were retconned out of existence in the third edition of ''TabletopGame/Warhammer40000'', and the creators got so fed up with fans asking about their return that ''they'' began to consider the Squats as the in-universe Scrappies. The official explanation now is that all of the Squat homeworlds were eaten by [[HordeOfAlienLocusts Tyranids]]. Occasionally one or two survivors turn up in the fiction, usually played for laughs. Eventually, they were RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap and officially brought back into canon with the explanation that they are abhumans, meaning they actually can never be eliminated since they're human mutants that can be born as such randomly.
* ''TabletopGame/YuGiOh'' card game examples:,
** The [[http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Legacy_of_Yata-Garasu Legacy of Yata-Garasu]] card features [[TierInducedScrappy Yata-Garasu]] lying dead on the ground. (Think the name of the card is respectful? It's original Japanese name is "Corpse of Yata-Garasu".) The effect even counters his own special ability. (And this card was released ''before'' Yata-Garasu was outlawed.)
** [[http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Deep_Dark_Trap_Hole Deep Dark Trap Hole]] features Goyo Guardian, who had recently been put on the Forbidden List when this card was released, being sucked into a bottomless pit. (Ironically, while still illegal in Japan, it is currently [[RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap legal again in America.]]
** After Sangan was put on the Forbidden List, [[http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Mistake no less]] [[http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Tour_Bus_To_Forbidden_Realms than five]] [[http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Shared_Ride cards]] were released showing it missing a bus and being shipped to the Forbidden Realm along with other monsters on the list. [[ThrowTheDogABone He at least have made a friend on the way.]] But [[http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Wrongful_Arrest they aren't done picking on him yet]]. Graceful Charity stood with him for a while, but as of now, they've been separated, [[http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Mistaken_Accusation and one can only guess]] where it goes from here.
* The tinker gnomes of ''TabletopGame/{{Dragonlance}}'' became widely disliked for irritating mannerisms, poorly-done comic relief, and taking BunglingInventor and turning it into [[PlanetOfHats the defining feature of the entire species]]. ''TabletopGame/{{Spelljammer}}'' famously noted that gnomes of other settings will actively band together to hunt down tinker gnomes and wreck their {{Rube Goldberg Machine}}s for making other gnomes look bad, and that other races tend to be fairly permissive of this, as the tinker gnomes are a danger to themselves and everything else.
** Even more hated than the tinker gnomes were the kender, a race of carefree kleptomaniacs with no concept of fear that seemed specifically designed to bring out the worst in [[TheLoonie a certain kind of player]]. Fifth Age had the entire race conquered by a particularly vile dragon, resulting in species-wide post-traumatic stress disorder. Of course, the new "afflicted" kender were now bait for [[{{Wangst}} another common roleplayer's disease]].

* ''VideoGame/AnimalCrossing: Wild World'' introduced Lyle, an insurance scammer who would appear outside of the player's house on Saturdays. If talked to, he would force the player to pay him to buy insurance from him. If the player ignored him, he would try to follow them around until they talked to him and bought insurance. This combined with his [[HonestJohnsDealership annoying personality]], the fact that he would continue to harass the player even if they gave in and bought insurance from him, and that [[PowerUpLetdown his insurance was generally worthless]] [[note]]he would occasionally "cover" players who were stung by bees or sold forged paintings, but only in pitiful amounts that generally did not come close to what the player paid for his insurance in the first place[[/note]] made many players despise him. Possibly due to this, in ''VideoGame/AnimalCrossing: City Folk'', Lyle has lost his job as an insurance salesman and now works at the Happy Room Academy, a job he absolutely hates, and frequently talks about how his dreams have been crushed. By ''New Leaf'' he seems to have grown to like his new job, though.
* Nobody liked the minstrels in ''VideoGame/AssassinsCreedII'': they got in your face and sang annoying songs until they either went away or you tossed coins, possibly blowing your cover. ''VideoGame/AssassinsCreedRevelations'' has a mission where Ezio dresses up as a minstrel and sings. One of the songs is this little gem:
-->I am a tactless minstrel,\\
I sing off-key for coins,\\
If you see me in the street,\\
Please kick me in the loins.
** Not to mention that, to get the costumes in the first place you get to beat eight of them up. The fact that they go down in one punch each is just icing.
--->'''Ezio''': Minstels from Italia? I'm going to enjoy this.
* In the Under Night episode of ''VideoGame/BlazBlueCrossTagBattle'', [[BrattyHalfPint Platinum]] makes curry alongside [[LethalChef Noel and Yukiko]], only for Hyde to show up soon after; the loser of the resulting showdown ([[AIIsACrapshoot at the System's request]]) has to eat the curry the girls made. Platinum is not paired with Hyde, who the player controls; do the math.
* The third and final expansion to the original ''VideoGame/DawnOfWar'' was widely maligned for being buggy and poorly balanced. ''VideoGame/DawnOfWar 2'' explicitly references that campaign as an embarrassing disaster for the Blood Ravens (Relic's Chapter created specifically for the Dawn of War series and the most frequent point of view faction) that killed nearly half the Chapter. In [=DoW=] 2's first expansion, if Cyrus [[MoralEventHorizon falls to Chaos,]] he reveals that it is a direct result of that campaign causing him to lose faith in the Chapter.
* ''VideoGame/DeadSpace3'' has Norton who is a Jerkass that is overly protective toward Ellie, whom Isaac once dated before the events of the game. His Yandere attitude causes him to be very jealous of their behavior and this eventually has him [[spoiler: betray Isaac so he can ''save'' Ellie.]] Even after Isaac saves him, [[spoiler: he [[UngratefulBastard STILL tries to kill Isaac.]] Isaac's response? '''BoomHeadshot''']].
** Also, thanks to the ability to [[spoiler: stomp and shoot his dead body, many players didn't stop at the headshot]].
*** And, to top it off, in the ''Awakened'' DLC [[spoiler:Norton reappears as the first Necromorph encounter, so you get to kill him again]].
* In ''VideoGame/DonkeyKongCountryReturns'', the main reason Crowded Cavern was a rage-inducing ThatOneLevel was a giant BatOutOfHell that would constantly one-hit kill the player with very hard to dodge wave attacks. Come ''VideoGame/DonkeyKongCountryTropicalFreeze'', that same bat is visibly frozen in a block of ice in a lategame level - [[AndIMustScream and its eyes are moving]]. In case that wasn't cathartic enough, it appears immediately after a checkpoint, so players who revive there get to see it over and over again.
* In Isolde's second appearance in ''VideoGame/DragonAgeOrigins'', [[spoiler:she is repeatedly insulted by her demon-possessed son, including calling her stupid and possibly claiming that she's jealous of the younger, prettier Warden]].
* Anders and Carver of ''VideoGame/DragonAgeII'' were both divisive characters among the fandom. Party banter of the game's DLC made the two the butt of many jokes from other characters. During the Legacy DLC, Carver [[RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap underwent character development and maturity]] no matter whether he ended up to the Templars or to the Grey Wardens (for best results, choose the latter) and thus finally gained respect that he wanted in his own way, while Anders [[BlackAndWhiteInsanity did]] [[SanitySlippage not]] and nearby the finale, almost everyone in the party loathed him. In ''Videogame/DragonAgeInquisition'', Varric and potentially Hawke are quite bitter when the subject of Anders comes up.
* ''VideoGame/DukeNukem3D: Atomic Edition/Plutonia Pack'' features Scrappy "Due". In a cage. In the basement of a burger joint staffed by WesternAnimation/BeavisAndButtHead. Surrounded by his own excrement. About to be made into hamburger. You can do the humane thing and blow him to bloody ribbons. (A [[{{Pun}} scrappy meal?]])
* ''VideoGame/TheElderScrollsIIIMorrowind'' features Cliff Racers, GoddamnedBats to end all GoddamnedBats. They tend to attack you in flocks of 3-5, inflict pitiful damage but cause you to flinch when they hit you, have a major case of HitBoxDissonance, drop crappy loot, are capable of inflicting the player with diseases, and once you've gained a few levels, ''are all over the damned island''. {{Creator/Bethesda}} took notice of the player outrage and, in ''VideoGame/TheElderScrollsIVOblivion'', added news that EnsembleDarkhorse Jiub (who started the game along with the PlayerCharacter aboard the prison ship) had since been canonized as a saint for driving all of the Cliff Racers in Morrowind to extinction. He is now known as "St. Jiub the Eradicator."
* ''VideoGame/FableII'' mentions a rumor that Weaver the Guildmaster was found dead with the words [[AnnoyingVideoGameHelper "Your health]] [[CriticalAnnoyance is Low!"]] carved onto his forehead. Also, you can [[spoiler: optionally kill him as part of a quest in ''[[VideoGame/{{Fable}} The Lost Chapters]]'' edition of the first game.]] The rumor could be referring to that.
* The PSP remake of ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyTactics'' features a new battle which brings its resident Scrappy [[RichBitch Argath]] BackFromTheDead just so you get the pleasure of killing him again.
* In ''VideoGame/FreddyPharkasFrontierPharmacist'', Freddy may stumble across a "lost and out-of-place" [[VideoGame/KingsQuestVAbsenceMakesTheHeartGoYonder Cedric the Owl]], who later gets eaten by vultures.
* The second ''VisualNovel/HatofulBoyfriend'' has a new character in Nishikikouji Tohri, notable for being a shallow, absurd CardCarryingVillain who's never shown to be anything more than what he seems, in a pair of games where ''every'' character seems to fit some kind of stereotype initially but turns out to have labyrinthine HiddenDepths. In the manga he keeps barging in to advertise the drama [=CDs=], and the other characters, BreakingTheFourthWall, angrily protest that the fans don't like him and him getting this much attention will stir their hatred. Most fans do not in fact hate him, except apparently in-universe.
* [[RabidCop Carter Blake]] from ''VideoGame/HeavyRain'' is a complete asshole from the moment he appears, and in one optional chapter he goads you to hit him. [[spoiler: ''You can.'']]
* Invoked in ''VideoGame/{{killer7}}''. Iwazaru is generally disliked for talking for far too long even by Remnant Psyche standards and not maintaining the calmness of Travis, the other main Remnant Psyche. Furthermore, Remnant Psyches automatically talk at a fixed rate, and you can either sit through it or skip the whole thing. So naturally, [[spoiler:the Post Final Boss is wearing Iwazaru's outfit and might actually be Iwazaru. All he does is run down a narrow hallway and stand around so he can be shot five times]].
* In the FanRemake of ''VideoGame/KingsQuestIIRomancingTheThrone'', during the Cloud Spirit test, if you pass the first two questions you can choose an optional answer where Graham asks Connor to free the kingdom from a dreaded beast... revealed to be [[VideoGame/KingsQuestVAbsenceMakesTheHeartGoYonder Cedric the Owl]], and then he draws his blade [[CrowningMomentOfFunny and chases the damned owl himself]]. They even got Cedric's original voice actor to reprise his role.
** Of course, this scene has another potential example: Connor himself is possibly an even bigger Scrappy than Cedric, being the hero of the FranchiseKiller ''VideoGame/KingsQuestMaskOfEternity''. The choice mentioned above is whether or not to knight him for the services he performed in said game; saying no crushes Connor's spirits and sends him back to life as a peasant.
* In episode 3 of the ''Videogame/{{Kings Quest|2015}}'' remake, there's a puzzle in which you must save baby Cedric from getting eaten by a badger. If you let Cedric get eaten multiple times, Narrator!Graham notes that you must really enjoy seeing that owl suffer. If you try to walk away from the puzzle multiple times however, Graham will go into a sarcastic rant about about how what you really wanted to hear was that he was glad to see that owl dead and wanted to chase off the badger so he could eat the thing himself.
* The original ''VideoGame/LaMulana'' is infamous for its GoddamnedBats, which seem to have a fetish for {{knock|back}}ing [[PlayerCharacter Lemeza]] all over the place and off of platforms. In the remake, there are references to a curry dish with ''a bat as an ingredient'' and the Scripture item renders the player [[NoSell invincible to bats]].
* ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaBreathOfTheWild'' includes a Tingle outfit in its first DLC pack; wearing it around the various {{Non Player Character}}s will cause them to [[https://cdn.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/6bfppbO8fnH8IDZAOySci_iPuew=/800x0/filters:no_upscale()/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/8779093/vkagon2fvp6z.gif react to it either by drawing their weapons or freaking out]].
* From the ''Franchise/MassEffect'' series:
** ''VideoGame/MassEffect1'' has Ambassador Udina, a brown-nosing politician who later in the game [[spoiler: impounds the ''[[CoolStarship Normandy]]'' when your [[ApocalypseHow dire warnings]] aren't heeded and you become [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness politically inconvenient]].]] Your good friend [[BigGood Captain Anderson]] hatches a plan to [[spoiler: rectify that and send you on your way to save the galaxy and take the heat for it himself. One option involves Anderson storming into Udina's office, downing the ambassador in one punch, and then freeing the ''Normandy'' from her dock]]. You can later do one on him yourself by [[spoiler: [[AwesomeMomentOfCrowning endorsing Anderson for the Council seat]] instead of Udina.]] [[VideoGame/MassEffect3 The third game]] takes this even further with a Renegade interrupt that lets you [[spoiler:kill him]].
** There's also Khalisah al-Jilani, the reporter, who tries to make Shepard look bad in pursuit of ratings. In ''VideoGame/MassEffect1'', you can crack her jaw. In ''VideoGame/MassEffect2'' Shepard can crack her jaw again, or s/he can give her an [[SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic an equally awesome]] [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech verbal beatdown]]. [[DownloadableContent Lair of the Shadow Broker]] also includes videos of her getting punched out by a krogan... and kicked in the shin by a volus[[note]]an entire species of {{Chew Toy}}s[[/note]]. If you try to punch her again in the third game, she's finally wised up enough to dodge...but then ''another'' interrupt appears that lets you ''headbutt her''.
** In a case of the scrappy being a vehicle/game mechanic rather than a person, James and Steve can be heard bickering over the flaws/merits of the Mako and Hammerhead. Steve thinks the Mako handles like a drunk rhino, James thinks the Hammerhead's made of tissue paper.
* The entire character of Ivan Raidenovitch Raikov in ''VideoGame/{{Metal Gear Solid 3|SnakeEater}}'' is this: He looks exactly like Raiden, the last game's widely-hated protagonist, and appears in the game as the sadomasochistic colonel Volgin's homosexual love interest (even his name is a [[BilingualBonus Japanese double entendre]]: 'Raidenovitch' can be read in Japanese as 'Raiden no bitch', which itself translates to 'Thunderbolt's bitch', hinting at his and Volgin's relationship).
** Technically, Raiden was only hated by American fans. In Japan, Raiden's fanbase potentially rivals that of even Solid Snake. Also, the player is given the option to either kill or knock out Raikov, depending on what the player feels like, and the player doesn't even get a TimeParadox if he does the former.
** The player also has a mask of Raikov's likeness that's used late in the game to impersonate him, and there's a lot of fun to be had with the mask: Calling your MissionControl while wearing the mask will lead Snake's superior Zero to comment on how just wearing the mask is already making Snake seem more annoying, while Snake himself insists that wearing the mask is bound to make him more popular. The two other assistants will instead comment how they like the mask.
** The Secret Theatre [=FMVs=] also poke fun of Raiden: One FMV involves Raiden and Snake fighting over who gets to be the protagonist in ''VideoGame/{{Metal Gear Solid 4|GunsOfThePatriots}}'', with Snake winning in the end. In another FMV, Raiden goes back in time to eliminate Big Boss during Operation Snake Eater so he can be the main character, but can't bring himself to it when he finally meets the man face-to-face... and came to regret that when he decided to kill Solid Snake before he could be the main character of the ''Solid'' series, only for Big Boss to shamelessly kill him while hunting for Solid Snake in the final battle of ''VideoGame/MetalGear2SolidSnake''. However, as Rose consoles him, there's always going to be a [[VideoGame/MetalGearRisingRevengeance fifth MGS game]]... (Which still wasn't the ''[[VideoGame/MetalGearSolidVThePhantomPain actual]]'' fifth ''MGS'' game.)
* ''VideoGame/MetroidOtherM'' has quite the BrokenBase, but a lot of people dislike Adam due to him [[ArmchairMilitary spending most of the game in a comm booth]] and [[BagOfSpilling locking off the majority of your equipment]] for no good reason. Having quite a few comments and moments that are perceived as sexist or abusive by many fans doesn't help. So the moment when Samus says 'screw this' and activates an upgrade by herself, complete with DialogueReversal, is extremely cathartic.
* The ''VideoGame/MonsterHunter'' series has the Plesioth, a fish-based large monster [[ThatOneBoss notorious]] for its [[HitboxDissonance disjointed-hitbox]] [[ThatOneAttack hipcheck]]. In ''Monster Hunter 4'' and ''4 Ultimate'', a smaller Plesioth and a Green Plesioth can be caught as part of a net fishing minigame; catching one causes it to ''die instantly'' as it hits the wharf.
* The season 2 finale of ''VideoGame/SamAndMaxFreelancePolice'' does this to the Soda Poppers, combined with a BrickJoke. [[spoiler:They become the rulers of hell and, long story short, Sam and Max drop them into a small island in a pit of lava. TheStinger of the episode/season shows them doing the 'we'll be back' monologue...then, the [[BrickJoke purple Bermuda Triangle from the end of Moai Better Blues]] appears. Last we saw, a volcano had been erupting into it...the Poppers get vaporized.]]
** This was completely intentional from the very beginning - The Soda Poppers are hated both in-and-out-of-universe. Only two characters like or care about them in any capacity aside from how they can be exploited to further Sam & Max's goals, and one of them is Max (who you may recognize as someone who regularly exploits the Soda Poppers to further Sam & Max's goals).
* ''Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog''
** Omochao, introduced in ''VideoGame/SonicAdventure2'' and never shutting up, can be used as a '''weapon'''. You can pick Omochao up and throw it at foes, killing robots or throwing it off cliffs. Also ''VideoGame/ShadowTheHedgehog'' has the Omochao gun, which fires Omochaos as an ammunition.
*** He makes a [[SarcasmMode grand reappearance]] in ''VideoGame/LegoDimensions'' in the Sonic Dimensions level where he claims to have been trapped for some time and can resume giving hints again. Said hints are even more painfully obvious and Sonic himself gets annoyed with him. Shortly afterwards, Omochao gets smashed by a spring.
** Also in ''Sonic Adventure 2'', Big the Cat makes several cameos throughout the game. In his cameo in City Escape, he shows up along the path of the [[AdvancingWallOfDoom giant G.U.N. truck]].
** ''[[VideoGame/SonicRushSeries Sonic Rush Adventure]]'' introduced a character called Marine the Raccoon, whose MotorMouth RecklessSidekick tendencies and delusion that she's the real hero brushed a number of fans the wrong way. Sonic, Tails, and Blaze {{lampshade|Hanging}} how annoying she can be, ultimately leading up to a scene before the final level where Blaze finally blows up and yells at her: "You're a nuisance!"
** A lot of people dislike Silver from ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog2006'' for being {{wangst}}y, or for being [[ThatOneBoss a ridiculously cheap boss fight]]. (Even those who like Silver [[TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot think his story could have been handled a lot better]].) So the cutscene following the Silver vs. Shadow boss fight, where Shadow gives Silver a solid roundhouse kick to the back of his head, was remarkably cathartic.
*** Many fans agree that Silver was RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap as a result of his boss fight in ''VideoGame/SonicGenerations''. But even if you don't look at it that way, that fight ended in him being run over by a massive Katamari-esque ball of doom ([[HoistByHisOwnPetard which he created to run over Sonic]]). Makes that kick to the head look pleasant.
** The Deadly Six are hated by a lot of people for being shallow villains, lackluster bosses and the general mediocrity of ''VideoGame/SonicLostWorld''. Zavok's boss fight in ''VideoGame/SonicForces'' ends with Sonic physically punching him multiple times in an epic beatdown, which is ''so'' [[CatharsisFactor cathartic]] for said people to see.
* For ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'' fans that have no love for Randy Marsh and Stephen Stotch, ''[[VideoGame/SouthParkTheFracturedButWhole The Fractured But Whole]]'' makes both of them boss fights for your catharsis pleasure.
* Moneybags from the ''Franchise/SpyroTheDragon'' series forces the player to pay large amounts of money to open multiple locks on doors to go to other parts of the game. Being annoying in the eyes of the fans, ''Spyro 3'' had a bonus mission where you can ''attack'' Moneybags because he stole a dragon egg. The icing on the cake? While you're roasting that ursine's behind, you're also taking back '''ALL''' the gems he swindled from you during the course of the game. At the end of the sweet revenge, Moneybags is penniless.
* The various ''Franchise/StarWars'' licensed games love to do this to Jar Jar Binks:
** ''VideoGame/TheForceUnleashed'' presents the beautiful sight of Jar Jar [[TakenForGranite frozen in carbonite.]] This would be done again in ''VideoGame/DisneyInfinity'', where, in the Rise Against the Empire playset, you can see Jar Jar frozen in carbonite in Jabba's palace.
** ''VideoGame/LegoStarWars: The Complete Saga'' has an achievement called "Crowd Pleaser", earned by killing Jar Jar 20 times.
** ''VideoGame/StarWarsBattlefront'' has a level where you invade Naboo and fight lots of Gungans, all of whom act a lot like Jar Jar and fight poorly. Needless to say, it's a very ''popular'' level. Even more, it's the first level in the series.
** He's [[DeathFromAbove crushed by a falling N64 logo]] in ''Star Wars: Battle for Naboo''.
** In the casual MMO ''Clone Wars Adventures'', one of the minigames is punting him for distance (all in the name of practicing Force Push, of course).
** In ''VideoGame/BountyHunter'', he's a holographic target on the firing range in the first level.
* ''VideoGame/TalesOfXillia2'' has a late-game scene of Alternate Milla, once again, talking about how Ludger is destroying worlds by doing his job and mentioning in an off-handishly, snippish way how she's 'not the real Milla, anyway'. Gaius immediately calls her out on this and tells her that she clearly is ''nothing'' like the real Milla, who was ready to sacrifice her life for other people. It is reminiscent of the [[CharacterShilling shilling]] Milla tended to get in the previous game, but also finally a character telling Alternate Milla to shut up about her whine-fest of wallowing in her misery. [[spoiler: The fact that Alternate Milla became more [[CloningBlues annoying]] shortly after and then died, to bring the real Milla back, was just icing on top of the cake.]]
* Eric Sparrow, the antagonist of ''[[VideoGame/TonyHawksProSkater Tony Hawk's Underground]]'' and something of a memetic {{Jerkass}}, spent the entirety of ''THUG 2'' pissing himself, squealing like a girl and getting the crap beat out of him.
** He also got what he deserved in Neversoft's LogoJoke from the first ''Underground''. A sewer monster comes out from a manhole, drags him down, and presumably eats him, then various bones of his are thrown out of the manhole.
** If you've beaten the first ''Underground'' more than once, [[spoiler: the game lets you skip the final mission on your second playthrough by having your character knock out Eric with an elbow to the face to take the tape back]]. For most people, it's definitely worth playing the game twice just to see that cutscene.
* ''VideoGame/UltimateSpiderMan'' has one in the Venom tutorial, when it's telling you that you need to eat people to survive, your first target is...a child who loses his balloon, a jab at the extremely annoying lost balloon missions in the ''VideoGame/SpiderMan2'' movie game. The child even says "I lost my balloon!" using the ''exact same'' vocal clip from that game.
* In Episode 3 of Telltale's ''VideoGame/TheWalkingDead'', Duck offers to give you a high-five. You can respond, or simply walk past and ''leave the dumb kid hanging''. He looks quite pissed off for the rest of that section of the chapter.
** [[TheLoad Sarah]] from season 2 can be [[spoiler:left as Walker chow with zero repercussions.]]
* ''[[VideoGame/{{Wipeout}} Wipeout Fusion]]'' was [[OddballInTheSeries was heavily different from the rest of the series]] and divisive among the fanbase. ''Wipeout Pure'' returned to the style of the original series and the backstory indicated that ''Fusion'''s F9000 league was corrupt and riddled with scandal, and almost killed anti-gravity racing as a legitimate sport.
* A quest chain in ''VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft'''s expansion ''Cataclysm'' has the player delving into Thrall's inner emotional struggles in an effort to bring him back after he's killed by the Twilight's Hammer. When the player gets to his inner rage, there are hints that he's... less than pleased with [[ReplacementScrappy Garrosh's]] run as Warchief. For those who see Varian Wrynn as TheScrappy, Thrall ain't happy with him either.
** In ''Mists of Pandaria'' Garrosh is the final boss, so players actually get the chance to beat him up. Unfortunately, when he's defeated, Varian (see above) steps in and saves his life... so he can be put on trial. Yay! In a tie-in novel, and during the trial, he escapes. Boo! The player ''finally'' gets to see him truly die in a quest chain in the following expansion, ''Warlords of Draenor''.
** A more debatable example: certain [[RepeatableQuest daily quests]] in ''Mists of Pandaria'' were particularly annoying to some players, and yet were particularly important as a way to gear up. In the final patch of that expansion, the questgivers of some of those quests were killed and turned into undead raid bosses, which means that [[VideoGameCrueltyPotential you can beat them to your heart's content]]. Not only that but the valley of the eternal blossoms, the area which housed some of those quests, was [[SceneryGorn completely corrupted]] by the [[EldritchAbomination Sha]]-possessed BigBad and turned into a shithole, which many players already considered it to be one.
--->[[RootingfortheEmpire Hooray for Garrosh]]! He liberated us from the [[ScrappyMechanic dailies]] pestilence!
** Then there's Garrosh and Thrall's final confrontation at the end of the ''Warlords of Draenor'' questing arc. Perhaps the writers thought seeing Garrosh giving Thrall a verbal and physical smackdown (which he does) while calling out Thrall on making him Warchief when even ''he'' knew he wasn't cut out for the job (as seen in ''Literature/TheShatteringPreludeToCataclysm'') would satisfy some players. Turns out, it's ''very'' therapeutic.
* The inclusion of ''VideoGame/DuckHunt'' dog in ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros'' for [=Wii U/3DS=] is partially for this reason. For the longest time, the dog taunts at the player's failure with an irritating laugh and can't be shot. Any time he's able to be shot (such as the bonus stages in ''Vs. Duck Hunt''), you get a penalty or reprimanding. In his inclusion, the players are finally given the chance to beat the ever-loving crap out of it without penalty. The other part? Because this is essentially an answer of a long overdue fair play, this instead did the nearly impossible: [[RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap It rescues the dog from being one of the most infamous video game Scrappies.]]
* For those who hate [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamWing Wufei]], ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsZ Saisei-hen'' has a particular stage where players can [[PeninsulaOfPowerleveling easily farm kills by killing Wufei over and over again]] till the pilots attain their ace status. Considering this happens early in the game, this qualifies as a DiskOneNuke.
* The app ''[[{{Series/Rayman}} Rayman Adventures]]'', as part of limited time events, allows Rayman fans to do what they always wanted to do- beat up the Rabbids.
** And for those who haven't gotten their fill of Rabbid abuse, ''VideoGame/MarioPlusRabbidsKingdomBattle'' gives Mario and his pals no shortage of the critters to shoot down. It may be dulled by the fact that Mario's team is supported by Rabbids dressed up as them, but the consensus of the E3 crowd is that it can't be by much.
* ''VideoGame/{{Terraria}}'': For players who hate the Guide for allowing nighttime enemies into their houses, it can be satisfying that the procedure to [[spoiler:summon the Wall of Flesh]] involves [[spoiler:destroying the Guide via a voodoo doll]] rather than a PlayerPunch.
* ''VideoGame/Fallout4'': The ''Contraptions Workshop'' [=DLC=] allows the Sole Survivor to construct [[StockPunishment pillories]] at player settlements so as to [[LampshadeHanging "punish those who deserve it"]] (according to the in-game settlement [=HUD=] about this object). This means that if the Sole Survivor ever gets tired of [[TheGenericGuy Preston Garvey]] giving them [[ScrappyMechanic too many radiant quests at once]] or of [[UngratefulBastard Marcy Long's]] endless complaining, then they can assigned to a pillory and be treated as a pariah by the rest of the community.
** Bethesda themselves acknowledged Preston's reputation among the community in the E3 2018 gameplay trailer for VideoGame/Fallout76 where one of the characters that is killed in a brutal fashion is called PGARVEY.
* {{HiveswapFriendsim}}'s resident HateSink Zebruh Codakk was revealed in a later installment to be regularly cheated out of money by Remele. Remele quickly became a fan favourite.

* The ''WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs}}'' episode "The Warners' 65th Anniversary Special" states that the Warners were created as [[WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes Buddy's]] [[EnsembleDarkhorse funnier co-stars]], and he later tries to kill them for stealing his (nonexistent in real life) fame.
** "Lookit The Fuzzy Heads" has derided Scrappy [[WesternAnimation/TinyToonAdventures Elmyra Duff]] get the BadlyBatteredBabysitter treatment, instead of [[TheChewToy Buttons]].
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Clarence}}'': [[RichBitch Bel]][[SpoiledBrat son]] isn't well-liked by the fandom at all, thanks to being a royal jerk-off to many of the other characters, thus making moments such as him getting punched in the face by the eponymous character in the episode "Lil Buddy" all the more cathartic.
* Despite being the comic relief, Tucker Foley of ''WesternAnimation/DannyPhantom'' isn't that liked by several fans, finding him unfunny and never shutting up about technology or girls. In the episode "Double Cross My Heart", Sam has a new crush who seems like a decent guy, but then he finally snaps and yells at Tucker, which causes Sam to realize he's a jerk and breaks up with him. Even though he's the bad guy in this conversation, many actually agree with what he had to say about Tucker.
-->'''Gregor:''' Dude! Do you ever stop talking?! Do you even know how ''obnoxious'' you are with your stupid jokes and your lame-o technology? IDIOT!
* In the ''[[WesternAnimation/EdEddnEddysBigPictureShow Ed, Edd 'n' Eddy]]'' movie, Sarah receives this when the Kankers [[spoiler:give her a wet willie and make her a work mule]]. Kevin gets one too when [[spoiler:Nazz destroys his bike because he cared about it more than he cared about her]].
** From the [[WesternAnimation/EdEddNEddy series proper]], we have Ed (in a seriously bad mood due to [[spoiler:a rock in his shoe]]) throwing everyone out of his garage. When Sarah yells at him?
--->'''Sarah:''' '''''ED!!!''''' Listen to me, mister! You can't kick me out! ''I LIVE HERE, TOO!!''\\
''({{beat}})''\\
'''Ed:''' '''''SO MOVE!!!!'''''\\
'''Sarah:''' ''(looking [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness uncharacteristically frightened]])'' Uh...okay. We'd better go.
** Lee Kanker getting a heavy book dropped in her foot in "A Fistful of Ed" was well-deserved.
* One episode of ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'' had Quagmire rant at Brian [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BdbnssEZ_Xk for a good minute and a half]], [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech pointing out pretty much every criticism fans had been making about the character]], including his anti-religious views, his sponging off Peter, his moral superiority, his manipulative ways of attracting dumb women ([[AtLeastIAdmitIt with Quagmire adding that even though he does the same thing, he's at least honest about it]]), and so forth. Especially odd as [[TalkingToHimself both characters are voiced by]] Creator/SethMacFarlane, and [[SelfDeprecation even odder]] since Brian is [[MisBlamed the writing staff's]] AuthorFilibuster mouthpiece.
** It should be mentioned that the fact that it was Quagmire speaking, combined with how cemented Brian's status as a GaryStu AuthorAvatar had become, led some viewers to [[AlternativeCharacterInterpretation see the rant as]] one big, long TakeThatCritics with Quagmire as a StrawCritic.
** Ironically, Quagmire soon descended into scrappydom after his infamous rant at Brian and somehow, Quagmire descended in a deeper level of scrappydom that Brian did. Some fans have pointed out that some pieces of Quagmire's rant was filled with hypocrisy as not only did Quagmire do some of the same things that Brian did, but some of the bad things that Quagmire did were actually even worse than when Brian had these similar experiences as Quagmire not only hit on Lois but he also slept with his other friends wives, Bonnie and Loretta and it should be taken into account that the person who caught Quagmire having the affair with Loretta was Brian himself.
*** When Quagmire's hatred for Brian got Flanderized aggressively, the show started playing the middle road, with Brian hating Quagmire back and both characters being called out for being petty, self righteous egotists with neither being any better than the other (either by each other or third parties). "Tiegs For Two" in particular escalates into an incredibly childish war where both pull equal punches (both verbally and physically) until their girlfriends lay them a TheReasonYouSuckSpeech and dump them.
*** The secondary mouthpiece, Stewie, has barely two appearances in the episode mostly to say that Brian shouldn't obsess over being liked by everybody as long as he likes himself, and that he (Stewie) likes him no matter what.
** Less ambiguous is the next episode, "Dog Gone": Brian learns that his writing style is only enjoyable to the mentally retarded, and starts a crusade to get dogs recognized as having the same rights as humans after he accidentally killed another dog and nobody cared, which starts out looking like his usual political GaryStu behavior, but in a total reverse of events, Brian fails to make everybody realize his beliefs.
*** In that episode, and a few others, Lois has taken to saying things like "Oh God, what ''now''?" when she senses Brian is on another crusade, mirroring the audience's reaction quite well.
** In a case of a [[HilariousInHindsight retroactive]] example, frustrated ''Family Guy'' fans may find it cathartic to watch Stewie mercilessly beat Brian over a loan he kept putting off paying.
** Referenced before Brian's "death", when a squirrel comes up and kicks him saying that he hated that guy.
** Fans who hate Lois for being a total bitch can now cheer at sights like getting a [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech harsh verbal beatdown]] by her daughter in "Seashore Seashell Party" and getting beat up by a mob of children in "You Can't Do That on Television, Peter" due to the fact that Peter made a HateSink parody of her on an in universe children's show that he created, and retroactively, Joe punching her in "Breaking Out is Hard to Do". Plus, in the episode "And I'm Joyce Kinney," Joyce seeks revenge on Lois for a Literature/{{Carrie}}-style prank pulled on her by airing Lois' dirty laundry on national TV about her doing porn.
** The Asian Trix gag where the rabbit goes gung-ho on the kids that wouldn't give him Trix. You don't even care that the characters are stereotypes.
* ''WesternAnimation/HotelTransylvaniaTheSeries'' gives this treatment to Mavis' obnoxious braggart cousin Klaus in the episode "Drop the Needle", which ends with him stuck in his bat form and being forced by Aunt Lydia to replace the missing needle on her record player.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Kaeloo}}'':
** In Episode 82, Pretty the AlphaBitch finally gets her comeuppance when [[spoiler: Kaeloo and Mr. Cat team up to get her publicly humiliated on the news]].
** In Episode 131, Pretty enters a contest, and the judge turns out to be Kaeloo, who promptly fails her (as revenge for something she did earlier in the episode).
* In the ''WesternAnimation/KingOfTheHill'' episode "Peggy's Fan Fair", Hank finally calls Peggy out on being a credit-hogging KnowNothingKnowItAll asshole (ironically, Peggy was telling the truth that time).
* The ''Film/{{Cloverfield}}'' parody segment in ''WesternAnimation/{{MAD}}'' takes a jab at Sam Puckett from ''Series/ICarly'', by her getting shoved out of the camera by other co-star [[DoggedNiceGuy Freddie.]]
* ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'':
** In the episode "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS3E3TooManyPinkiePies Too Many Pinkie Pies]]", one of [[MesACrowd the Pinkie Pie clones]] turns her face into a [[DorkAge G3]] pony's face only to get zapped by Twilight Sparkle. This is even more noticeable in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x_eNrywwFNw an ad for Season 3]] in which Rarity and Fluttershy react to the face with disgust.
** In "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS3E8JustForSidekicks Just For Sidekicks]]", all of the pets share the fandom's dislike of Angel Bunny, including [[TheStoic Gummy]], [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness who normally doesn't show emotion]]. Owlowiscious even gives Angel an ImpliedDeathThreat at one point.
** Angel gets even ''more'' in "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS3E11KeepCalmAndFlutterOn Keep Calm and Flutter On]]". Although Discord gets one or two good shots in at each of the ponies, he gets about a dozen on Angel [[FunnyBackgroundEvent mostly in the background]]. It's never noticed by the characters, Angel never gets a shot back, and [[KickTheSonOfABitch fans everywhere cheered]].
** Snips and Snails get their just desserts in "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS3E5MagicDuel Magic Duel]]" when they are abused by Trixie, whose cart they ended up wrecking through their own stupidity in her first appearance.
*** Their ''[[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyEquestriaGirls Equestria Girls]]'' counterparts are even more hated, which led to much rejoicing when fan favorite Bulk Biceps blasts them out of the Battle of the Bands competition ([[https://derpiboo.ru/748799 figuratively and literally]]) in ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyEquestriaGirlsRainbowRocks''.
** Diamond Tiara receives various [[LaserGuidedKarma karmic punishments]] for bullying the Cutie Mark Crusaders, ranging from falling over and getting her coat dirty to get a stern reprimanding from her elders.
*** "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS4E15TwilightTime Twilight Time]]" had a scene in which Sweetie Belle uses her magic to pick up Diamond Tiara and make her flail through the air. Sadly, this was merely a dream, but fans enjoyed it nonetheless and wait for the day Sweetie Belle does it for real.
** Angel appearing to get crushed in "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS4E3CastleManeia Castle Mane-ia]]" with Applejack jumping on the pile of rocks doubling as an InUniverse example. We know the whole time it's not him, but it's hard to imagine a similar gag being done with the likes of Gummy or Winona.
** Angel gets it ''again'' in "Castle Sweet Castle" when Twilight kicks him into a mud puddle.
** Fans who didn't like Featherweight [[KarmaHoudini getting off scot-free]] for his actions in [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS2E23PonyvilleConfidential "Ponyville Confidential"]] found long-awaited justice when he [[KarmaHoudiniWarranty got squirted with ink]] in "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS5E9SliceOfLife Slice of Life]]".
** In the ''Equestria Girls'' films, Flash Sentry was disliked by much of the fanbase for being a SatelliteLoveInterest for [[DieForOurShip Twilight Sparkle]]. In ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyEquestriaGirlsFriendshipGames'', he gets DemotedToExtra, and his only significant screen time involves him mistaking Twilight Sparkle's human counterpart for her, only to get completely blown off, and then [[EpicFail baking a loaf of bread in a cake baking contest]].
* An InUniverse example; Irving is treated with contempt by the rest of the ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb'' cast, except for the title characters. But then again, who ''doesn't'' Phineas tolerate? To be fair, though, in real life, he is actually a BaseBreakingCharacter.
** And even then, Ferb is the only one who doesn't seem to mind... mainly because he's fairly [[TheStoic stoic]] and [[TheVoiceless nonverbal]]. Phineas, however, has several times shown to be less than enthused at his presence.
** Actually Phineas did say this line once when unveiling their new invention: [[MyFriendsAndZoidberg "Friends, bullies, Irving..."]]
* ''WesternAnimation/RobotChicken''
** One sketch had the Scooby Doobies team planning retribution for the Really Rottens' attack on Laff-A-Munich. The Blue Falcon wanted to partner with a "more subtle talking dog" and had the choice between WesternAnimation/{{Dynomutt|DogWonder}} and Scrappy-Doo (although Scrappy hadn't been created until after ''WesternAnimation/LaffALympics''). Guess who he immediately kicks out (literally). The very same sketch also has terrorists blow Booboo Bear's head off with a shotgun, and blows up Scooby-Dum for [[ShootTheShaggyDog literally no reason.]] It's almost a masterpiece made for killing off Creator/HannaBarbera Scrappies.
** Another sketch portrays what would happen if Jar Jar met Anakin after becoming Darth Vader. The short answer is, he would be thrown out of a Star Destroyer's airlock. [[AlasPoorScrappy He comes back as a Force Ghost to pester Vader some more.]] A later [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ovO7lmFYCc sketch]] involving Jar Jar strongly indicates that his status may [[BatmanGambit not have been]] [[GreaterScopeVillain unjustified.]]
** Another sketch about [[WesternAnimation/TheFlintstones the Great Gazoo]], in which Fred and Barney think he's a god, give him their wives and children, kill Dino as a sacrifice and finally get tired of their "god" and kill Gazoo.
* ''Franchise/ScoobyDoo'':
** Scrappy-Doo in the first live-action ''Film/ScoobyDoo'' movie. See Films section.
** In Creator/CartoonNetwork's Big Game between WesternAnimation/BugsBunny and WesternAnimation/DaffyDuck, two jokes were made at Scrappy's expense: It it said by the pregame show hosts that Scrappy barely lasted in the playoffs, and during the game itself, Pat Summerall listed adding Scrappy to ''Scooby-Doo'' as one of the worst business decisions ever made.
** In "The Best Place for Cartoons" promo, Scrappy was ranting on how the Creator/CartoonCartoons characters are more popular than him, despite his being there longer than them. (Ironically, Website/YouTube posts of this clip have comments from people saying they agree with what Scrappy is saying.)
*** And while Scrappy is talking, Shaggy comes by, sees Scrappy, and slowly backs away before he's noticed by Scrappy.
** There was also a game on Creator/CartoonNetwork's site called "Scrappy Stinks" at one point where the point was to throw tomatoes at Scrappy. The very first game on the site, no less.
** ''WesternAnimation/HarveyBirdmanAttorneyAtLaw'' has the "Shaggy Busted" episode end with Scrappy showing up for a brief cameo only to be taken away to be eaten by Avenger (in later episodes, he is depicted as a corpse). [[EverybodyLaughsEnding And the cast laughs about it.]]
** Even Warner Home Video is in on the act, [[OrwellianEditor starting with minimizing Scrappy's presence in clips in the trailer]] for ''The Richie Rich/Scooby-Doo Show'' and not mentioning him at all on the descriptions for the [=DVDs=] of the late-'80s Scooby movies. Seeing as only Scooby and Shaggy appear on the cover of the ''WesternAnimation/The13GhostsOfScoobyDoo'' set, one can imagine that this trend is going to continue. This is presumably due to the fact that Creator/WarnerBros is aware of the backlash Scrappy-Doo had received.
** The DVD for ''WesternAnimation/AlohaScoobyDoo'' has a segment where the Scooby gang is interviewed. When Fred mentions there is a sixth member of their gang ([[spoiler:the Mystery Machine]]), Shaggy gets scared [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XC5BvZbKYBE and reminds Fred they shouldn't talk about Scrappy]], as the rest of the gang [[MassOhCrap looks nervous as well]].
** In ''WesternAnimation/ScoobyDooAndTheGoblinKing'' the living Mystery Machine runs down a stand with Scrappy dolls as prizes.
** In ''WesternAnimation/ScoobyDooMysteryIncorporated'', one episode shows off a statue of Scrappy in a museum. Daphne was about to make a comment about him, but Fred reminds her that [[LetUsNeverSpeakOfThisAgain they'd never speak of him. Not ever again.]]
*** They also come across a statue of [[WesternAnimation/The13GhostsOfScoobyDoo Flim-Flam]], which prompts Daphne to reveal that his juvenile ConArtist antics have gotten him a ''25 to life sentence''. Ouch.
** One Creator/CartoonNetwork 20th Birthday promo closes with everybody taking a picture. Before it's taken, [[WesternAnimation/AdventureTime Jake]] pushes Scrappy out of the frame.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'':
** In the episode "Bart Star" Lisa signs up for the school's football team to be the one girl who wants to join the all-boys football team, only to realize they have four girls in the team already. Seconds later, she completely turns around, protesting the cruel, barbarian actions of playing a game with the skin of an innocent pig. Ned Flanders promptly responds that the balls are synthetic, and Sherri chimes in that for every ball they buy, the company donates to Amnesty International. Lisa leaves in tears.
** In the first segment of "Treehouse of Horror XXIII", an atomic supercollider is built because Lisa protested against building a baseball stadium. When the supercollider seemingly doesn't work, she is chewed out and ousted by everyone in town and is left crying on the sidewalk.
*** In "Fraudcast News", Lisa and Mr. Burns are in Burns' office, and Lisa is waiting for Marge to pick her up. Burns awkwardly tries to make small talk by asking Lisa what she thinks of the modern music scene. Lisa responds by saying she thinks it distracts from real issues, and Burns rolls his eyes and asks "My God, are you '''always''' on?!"
** Also done in-universe with Poochie. He was so utterly hated that he was lazily permanently killed off, instead of you know, trying to correct their mistakes and make him a better character (he only appeared twice counting his death).
* It's obvious that the characters - especially the Clone Troopers - in ''WesternAnimation/StarWarsTheCloneWars'' find Jar Jar Binks just as annoying as the audience. Oddly, this seems to [[RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap make his character much more bearable]].
** Even in one of the LEGO Star Wars shorts, Jar Jar only appears on camera for a few seconds to be [[LudicrousGibs shot into many Lego pieces.]]
** In the ''LEGO Star Wars: Droid Tales'' mini-series, Jar Jar is shot and blown up at the very beginning of the ''[[Film/ThePhantomMenace Phantom Menace]]'' adaptation despite having a huge role in the original film. Artoo simply chuckles after seeing this. [[UnexplainedRecovery He miraculously survives this]], and then shows up several more times throughout the series [[RunningGag just to somehow get injured immediately after appearing each time]].
* The ''WesternAnimation/{{Superjail}}'' episode "The Trouble with Triples" was basically this for all the fans that hated the Twins from their first appearance. The episode has the characters essentially go through a huge HumiliationConga due to the consequences of lying to impress their elder brothers: Being brutally beat up, fed to a giant alien worm that [[NauseaFuel defecates them out]], threatened and mocked by their brothers, and a last-minute plot twist culminating in them "winning" their battle... but impressing their father (due to him being stabbed by the Warden), who then forcibly takes them home to be overlords and subjects them to MindRape. The episode's kind of a contentious one in that regard, as while there were many fans relieved that [[SnapBack the events were seemingly undone by the next one]], the fans that hated the characters and derived enjoyment from the episode then felt ''very'' cheated and angry that they weren't permanently written out.
** The inmates being angry and sick of the Twins' variety show in "Planet Radio" for interrupting their favorite ''"Jailpup"'' show is thought to reflect (either intentionally or unintentionally) the opinions of those who consider the characters to be filler that take away from other more potentially interesting characters and ideas.
** The Mistress being berated to tears and pushed around in "Stingstress" was this for fans who hated her and preferred Lord Stingray as the Warden's archenemy.
* Rodimus Prime in ''WesternAnimation/TransformersAnimated'', in his first appearance he ends up getting afflicted with cosmic rust. This has satisfied some fans who don't like Roddy.
* Miko of ''WesternAnimation/TransformersPrime'', who is derided by the fanbase for being TheLoad, and often TooDumbToLive. She was actually called out on such behavior by Jack in the fourth episode of the series. ("Miko, Raf was almost killed! This isn't a game; when are you going to get that through your thick skull!?") The problem is, she suffers from severe AesopAmnesia (especially during Season 1), so she keeps getting herself (and sometimes Jack and Raf) into similar messes. Episodes like "Shadowzone" or "Metal Attraction" have seen her get reprimanded, though, which pleases the fanbase (at least until the next time she pulls a similar stunt).
-->'''Miko:''' Look, if you're going to blame anybody, blame me.\\
'''Jack:''' I'm sorry, could you repeat that... a couple dozen times?
* ''WesternAnimation/TheVentureBrothers'' has the Murderous Moppets, two creepy and unpleasant dwarf henchmen that The Monarch inherited through marriage, to his (and the fans') displeasure. When Mrs. The Monarch orders the Moppets to distract him, they try to get in his face, only for the Monarch to coldly and plainly tell them that he doesn't like them and that if they ever try to give him an order he will kill them and feed them to the neighborhood dogs.
** In the final episode of Season 4, Dr. Girlfriend finally tells them off and admits that they're starting to creep even her out. The Monarch's reaction is similar to that of the fanbase's.
** The Season 5 finale implies that [[spoiler: Gary and a group of other Monarch henchmen killed Tim-Tom]].
** "Bot Meets Bot" has [[SmugSnake Augustus St. Cloud]] hassled by the bouncers to a BadGuyBar for no apparent reason.
* In ''WesternAnimation/TheLegendOfKorra'''s RecapEpisode "Remembrances," Mako spends an entire act getting reamed out for his actions in the first two seasons, most of all by his own grandmother. Later Unalaq is portrayed as the ButtMonkey of the show's {{Big Bad}}s, who don't want him to be part of their LegionOfDoom and keep trying to get rid of him. Plus, Varrick describes him as "incredibly boring and unpopular."
** Season 3 is pretty much one big TraumaCongaLine for Mako, who becomes the victim of several misfortunes over the course of the series, such as having a door airbended in his face, his ex-girlfriends playing a little prank on him and many other little moments of misfortune that it would take too long to list them all.
* Bunga from ''WesternAnimation/TheLionGuard'' has been disliked for being annoying and being quite a bully to Ushari the cobra. Karma bites him in the butt (the first time literally) by the same cobra, and the baby animals playing the Lion Guard said that whoever is the slowest to choose who to play gets to play Bunga. The honey badger is not amused.
* ''WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyond'': Max Gibson becomes a victim of this in "Where's Terry?", courtesy of Bruce. See it [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XQYzM3KgGho here]].
* At the 2017 San Diego Comic Con, WB offered a number of tote bags based on their shows, and, in a show of [[SelfDeprecation self-deprecating humor]], one of the ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitansGo'' themed bags shows the ''Go!'' Titans being beaten up by their [[WesternAnimation/TeenTitans 2003 counterparts]][[labelnote:*]] (With the exception of [[TheHeart Starfire]], who is getting along with her counterpart in comparison.)[[/labelnote]], which can be seen [[http://cbr2.imgix.net/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/SDCC17-Bag-Teen-Titans-Go.jpg?auto=format&lossless=1&q=40&w=1024&h=&fit=crop here]].
* ''WesternAnimation/Ducktales2017'' Although the character was RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap, they still had one towards [[TheSmurfettePrinciple Webby]] from [[WesternAnimation/Ducktales1987 the original series' run]], as her Quacky Patch Doll (which was based on Webby's design) is seen ''pinned to the wall with an arrow'' in the premiere episode.

* ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/12879916/28/The-Longest-Road The Longest Road]]'' has an unfortunate example gone a little too far. Understandably, the author was pretty angry with Erika's decision in the Pokémon anime to ban Ash for not liking her perfume. However, rather than denouncing her unprofessionalism, he instead gets her ousted from her job for being ''a lesbian'' (for some reason, the Pokémon League has a rule that states that nobody who is from the LGBT community can be a trainer). It's hard not to think of her [[UnintentionallySympathetic as the more sympathetic party]], especially given that the rest of her Gym staff are most likely going to find themselves out of a job soon.

** The anime had [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome quite a good one]] when Dr. Eggman gives Chris a [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech verbal smackdown]] on how he's acting like a whiny brat because if Sonic goes away he'll be back to being normal.
** Some fans find an earlier scene in which Chris is thrown about by [[AntiHero Shadow]] a lot less entertaining than Eggman's quite understandable verbal smackdown. This seems to be due to the fact that, like Chris or loathe him, Shadow is essentially ''[[MoralEventHorizon beating up a twelve year old child who cannot fight back]]''.

* The one shot, ''[[Tough Love https://twispitefic.livejournal.com/20755.html]]'', can be considered a cathartic one for anyone tired of Bella's behavior and brattiness from ''Literature/{{Twilight}}''. In an alternative scene from ''New Moon'' between Bella and her father, Charlie Swan, Bella threatens to move out of the house. Unlike the book, however, [[RageBreakingPoint Charlie finally has enough and declares that after everything she had put him and herself through, she was most certainly leaving within the hour]]. He also goes on a [[TranquilFury calm tirade]] that seems to borderline TheReasonYouSuckSpeech for most of the fic, calling her out on every shitty thing she had done up to that point (running away from home while Charlie was at a friend's funeral, treating him like "the desk clerk in a cockroach-ridden motel you're deigning to stay at because you don't have a better option", ignoring her friends in favor of Edward) while criticizing her relationship with Edward, whom Charlie (quite accurately) calls an "abusive fucktard." All Bella can really do is protest and meekly plead with him not to throw her out, while Charlie also adds that Bella's mom also doesn't want Bella to live with her, either, because of Bella's ControlFreak tendencies.
** To make it even sweeter, Charlie also points out to Bella that because of her 6-month HeroicBSDOD, [[RealityEnsues she is failing all of her classes and has a GPA of 1.3, her truck requires extensive repairs from driving through the woods and not doing regular maintenance, she lost her job because of her attitude towards customers and for stealing from the storeroom, her motorcycle was impounded because she didn't have a license to drive it, and that she has next to no job options because of her failing high school and not able to get a diploma.]]

** [[WordOfGod According to the author of the fic]], the Cullens are also under investigation for insider trading and potential drug involvement, which Charlie is happy about, "sick of the Cullens, their mind games, and the way they acted as if money was a get-out-of-everything-free card." In the headcanon, they flee to escape prosecution and end up being captured anyways when Alice blows their cover. Meanwhile, Bella gets a serious wake-up call around the same time when [[HeelRealization she is forced to admit that her father wasn't telling people not to give her help with her predicament and that she is hated for her own actions and behavior.]] Unlike the Cullens, however, [[CharacterDevelopment Bella eventually grows out of her bratty behavior and matures.]]

** Also applies to the Cullens, too. When Bella declares that she'll go to the Cullens, saying that they are her "real family", Charlie tells her in an almost gleeful manner that they are nearly broke. Turns out that Fiction500 [[RealityEnsues doesn't apply when only one person works and the whole family has expensive tastes]] (especially when the average income would be only close to $200,000 yearly, [[ShownTheirWork as the author researched, along with car maintenance for Bella's truck]]).
--> [[OnlySaneMan Charlie]]: [[ThisIsReality Get real, Bella.]] [[RealityEnsues No one has that much money to burn.]]
** And the cherry on top of the fic is Charlie being aware of Edward hiding in the closet and drops a subtle hint to him as Charlie wraps up his rant to Bella that Bella is just using him and probably doesn't know the first thing about Edward. Not even a few minutes after Charlie walks downstairs, Edward and Bella have an offscreen (and loud) argument that leads to Edward breaking up with Bella for good, realizing that she was just using him to become a vampire.

However, it turns out that "Tobias" was never a real person, and was just a hologram created by Darkrai and the other Legendaries, who wanted to compete in a regional Conference for once.

* Anders and Carver of ''VideoGame/DragonAgeII'' were both divisive characters among the fandom. Of party banter of the game's DLC made the two the butt of many jokes from other characters. During the Legacy DLC, Carver [[RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap underwent character development and maturity]] no matter whether he ended up to the Templars or to the Grey Wardens (for best results, choose the latter) and thus finally gained respect that he wanted in his own way, while Anders [[BlackAndWhiteInsanity did]] [[SanitySlippage not]] and nearby the finale, almost everyone in the party loathed him. In ''Videogame/DragonAgeInquisition'', Varric and potentially Hawke are quite bitter when the subject of Anders comes up.
