is this your idea of a sick joke welcome to watch Mojo and today

we're counting down our picks for TV characters that have become hard to root

for given the real life controversies of the actors who played them even great

doctors make mistakes number 10 Mr Big Sex in the

City as we learned in the original finale this man's name is John Preston

but for most of the show's run he's referred to Simply as Mr big it can't

happen again you're married I'm aware of that but come on big is portrayed by

actor Chris no whose career collapsed in December 2021 owing to multiple sexual

assault allegations Noth was dropped by A3 artist's agency and lost various jobs

the news broke shortly after no reprised his role as Mr Big in the anticipated

sequel series John oh God oh God although big was

meant to make another appearance in the first season's finale he was edited out

due to the controversy surrounding Noth and just like that big lost to appeal so

what's going on where are you I was out front I just

left I can't do this number nine Mora feferman transparence an enormously

important character in regard to TV history Mora fefferman blazed trails and

made us laugh along the way a trans woman Morrow was based on Creator Joey

solway's own parents and was played to great a claim by Jeffrey Tambour ever

since I was was five I I I felt that something was was not

right despite some controversy over a cisgender man playing a transom Tambour

won two Emmys for his performance and the character of Mora was widely loved

this is me that is until Tambour was accused of sexual misconduct in 2017 he

was ultimately fired from the show and did not appear in the transparent

musical finale it's a shame that such a groundbreaking character suffered such a

disappointing conclusion regardless her Legacy will live on number eight Jamal

lion Empire I just want to play as a child actor Jesse Smet starred in movies

like The Mighty Ducks in North he then took a long break from the screen before

starring as Jamal lion in the Fox drama Empire the character of Jamal was widely

acclaimed especially for his reputation as a gay black man in the music

[Music]

industry your damn walk look like a little he just came out but like

Mora fefferman the character's Legacy was clouded by the actor's personal life

in 2019 mlet staged a very public hate crime claiming that he was physically

and verbally assaulted by two random males is this your idea of a sick

Joe n i me you seem kind of jealous of the song I wrote for mom so I wrote one

for you in reality Smet had planned the crime himself and paid Empire extras

Abel and Ola endiro to Stage the attack he was subsequently convicted on five

felony counts and faced 150 days in county jail number seven Preston Burke

Gray's Anatomy it seems like Gray's Anatomy has been on forever so it's hard

to remember what happened in the first couple of Seasons well a character named

Preston ber was a huge part of it with his romantic subplot serving as a major

draw to the show thanks for the

[Music] coffee of

faces however his story line came to an an Abrupt end in the third season as

actor Isaiah Washington was fired it stemmed from an argument that Washington

had with Patrick Dempsey during which Washington allegedly called his co-star

TR Knight a homophobic slur even great doctors make mistakes

Washington's contract was not renewed and Preston Burke was written out of the

show taking with him one of its most important and popular characters I don't

want you to work for me you just offered me a job I don't want you to work for me

I want you to take over from me number six Daniel desario Freaks and Geeks well

it only lasted one season Freaks and Geeks is arguably one of the most

influential shows in television history it kickstarted numerous high-profile

careers including that of Creator Paul Fe and actors Seth Rogan Jason seagull

and James Franco to name just a few no I don't think I'm cool Franco plays Daniel

Dario one of the so-called freaks who is befriended by Lindsay Weir but Daniel

like all of Franco's characters was ruined after the actor was accused of

sexual misconduct Franco was sued by two former students of his acting school

claiming that he subjected them to sexually exploitive

auditions you going to the game tonight the case was eventually settled for just

under $900,000 little miss perfect doesn't know what I'm going to do with

my life number five Cosmo Kramer signed fell it doesn't get much more iconic

than Cosmo Kramer I'm Kramer well it didn't while the show

undoubtedly belonged to Jerry Seinfeld it does carry his name after all it was

Michael Richards who stole the show as Seinfeld's kooky neighbor Kramer became

one of the most popular characters on TV thanks to his eccentric personality

bizarre storylines sharp comedic delivery and physicality but that was

all ruined with Richard's Infamous meltdown in 2006 the anger it just melts

right off Serenity Now Richards was performing at the Hollywood Laugh

Factory when he went on a racist tiate which was captured on camera by a member

of the audience Richard's career imploded and the character of Kramer

became an obvious sore spot in the legacy of

Seinfeld I'm out number four Rosanne Connor Rosanne

sometimes it's really hard to separate the art from the artist in the 15 years

we've been married has there ever been one morning where there wasn't any

coffee no this is certainly the case with the groundbreaking sitcom Roseanne

and its aonomus star Roseanne Bar one of the biggest sitcoms of the late 80s and

90s Roseanne earned a claim for its writing and realistic depiction of

working class life its main character was also a big reason for its success

with Rosanne often being labeled as one of the best female characters in

television unfortunately Bar's recent controversies have made it really hard

to rewatch Roseanne and find joy in her performance oh hold it right there you

were very very mean to me and hurt my feelings today and I'm not sure that I

even want to talk to you yet in fact bar ruined the legacy of her own show as a

long anticipated Revival was canceled after bar made a racist tweet what the

hell were you thinking number three Frank Underwood

House of Cards but once their claws get long enough they draw blood sometimes

from the hand that feeds them it's hard to deny the legacy of House of Cards and

its villain protagonist Frank Underwood the show helped legitimize the streaming

industry with its historic Emmy nominations and Underwood brought esteem

to the industry through the involvement of Kevin spacy spacy was undeniably

great in the role earning five consecutive Emmy nominations for

outstanding lead actor in a drama series but spacy's career collapsed like a

house of cards when he was accused of sexual assault in 2017 it's arguably the

most significant acting downfall in modern history owing both the pedigree

of spacy and the speed at which it occurred there will be pain there will

be suffering we will be confronted with the

most horrific aspects of humanity not only that all of his iconic characters

including Frank Underwood have been permanently tarnished because that's how

good we are at making things

disappear number two Steven Hyde That 70s Show like Freaks and Geeks That 70s

Show helped launch a number of notable careers including those of toe for grace

munis and Ashton Kutcher but even amongst those Legends Danny Masterson

stood out through his performance of Steven Hyde you don't want to hug do

you God no good you're not getting one Hyde was undeniably a fan favorite with

his hippie and anti anti-establishment Persona embodying The Vibes of the late

60s and early' 70s but masteron was accused of sexual assault in

2017 kickstarting a lengthy process that culminated with him going to prison for

30 years your wife and children could be enjoying full frontal

nudity Hyde was not involved in that 90s show which is a strong indication of his

character's footprint in TV history not a beer but if you want you can break

straight Seasons at number one and made Cliff hustable a household name

history Cosby went from America's dad to Public Enemy Number One after he was

accused of sexual assault by countless women hello my dear

Awards and removed from the television Academy's Hall of Fame and with that his
