8 of the Naughtiest Television Characters of the Year

Assuming that Santa Claus really is always watching, there are quite a few television characters whose behavior this year would certainly qualify them for the naughty list. Herewith, the TV personalities who would get coal in their stocking on Christmas morning if their religion permitted and Santa really did exist.

8. Ben Chang, Community (Ken Jeong)

He may not be anywhere as funny as Glee's baddie Sue Sylvester, but the equally cartoonish villain of Community continually seeks revenge against the students that had him fired. This season, viewers saw (and grew tired) of Chang's exaggerated antics which resulted in a restraining order against himself.

7. Dwight Schrute, The Office (Rainn Wilson)

Rainn Wilson's Office character took stinginess to a new level of genius this year by separating double ply toilet paper and splitting tampons in two to cut building costs. When he wasn't lowering morale in the office, he pulled a "Pretty Woman" at Steamtown Mall, incited jealousy between Jim and Pam and organized a completely unnecessary sting operation to gain sales knowledge. And yet, for a character so evil, Dwight does have an uncanny ability to calm babies.

6. Betty Draper, Mad Men (January Jones)

In addition to providing the exact model for how not to speak to your children about masturbation, Betty Draper created a living hell for Don this year by overstaying her welcome in the family home, preventing Don from seeing Baby Gene, planning on moving all of the children to Rye and ultimately driving the man to journal writing. Journal writing!

5. Sue Sylvester, Glee (Jane Lynch)

Sue Sylvester may not have been as downright evil as she was during her freshman season of Glee, but McKinley High's Cheerio coach/part-time principal still managed to have menacing moments. When she wasn't rigging the faculty gift exchange in her favor, bullying Coach Beiste or banning Potater Tots, Sue could be found smearing her face with green paint and Grinch-ing the New Directions' Christmas.
