Inspired by this thread.
You couldn’t get me to marry any of the Cartwrights from Bonanza. That is a death sentence.
First thing I thought of.
Homer Simpson or Peter Griffin.
All of the fat and lazy sports-obsessed slobs that the skinny women seem to marry on sitcoms.
Al Bundy.
Lucy Ricardo.
Derek Sheppard (aka “McDreamy.”)
He was technically still married to Addison, left Meredith out of the article he wrote on his clinical trial when she did equal work on it, expects her (a med student!) to get pregnant (now adopt) and have his child, and is generally an all-around douchebag.
Heretic! Al Bundy is my personal hero.
Carmela Soprano is the first that comes to mind. I’m sure if I went through my internal rerun library, I could come up with a bunch more.
^^ Totally. Same goes for Cristina’s mate. what.the.hell?
Meridith from Grey’s Anatomy. Way, way too self-involved.
Peggy Bundy though that’s shooting fish in a barrel.
Claire from Modern Family. She’s an absolute buzz-kill, overreacts to the smallest thing and strikes me as being really high-maintenance.
Ironically enough, I went to high school with Julie Bowen, the actress who plays her. She was a senior and I was freshman even though it was a small school, but even back then people were impressed by her performances in school plays.
Gloria Stivik.
Peggy Hill.
Marie Barone.
And whoever George Costanza’s mom was.
Why? Al at least stuck by his family, didn’t quit his crap job and tried his best with what he had. I can think of a lot worse husbands then him.
That just made me shudder.
Ray Barone
Tim Taylor
Frasier Crane
Lucy Ricardo. That woman is always trying to upstage her husband.
Wow, really? I always thought it would be so cool to marry/date him, especially when I first started watching the show in high school. He’s cultured, a doctor, a Harvard/Oxford grad, has an AWESOME apartment.
As for worst, I’d go with Peter Griffin as well.
Darrin Stephens. Such a monumental castration-anxiety prick. He’s married to a woman who can make him lord of a castle or take him on vacations to the moon but noooo, since he doesn’t have magic powers she can’t use her’s either. That’d be like marrying a classicial pianist but saying “Since I can’t read music you can’t have a piano”.
I’ve always assumed the last episode of the series was Endora turning him into a hog and zapping him into the line at a slaughterhouse. When Samantha learns he’s already been made (off camera) into sausage and spare ribs she says “Mother, how could you!?” but then meets a special guest warlock (Burt Lancaster) and says “Well, I’m immortal and he’s already middle aged, not like we had that much longer together either” and flies off with him, stopping only to turn Mrs. Kravitz into a cat in front of her husband, who now knows Gladys wasn’t crazy but still likes her better as a cat.
I was thinking him, Sampiro! I always thought Dick York was cute but what was up with the no magic policy?
In fairness, I should say I’ve only seen one or two episodes, but in those episodes Al Bundy is an unrepentant asshole who demeans his wife for being fat, daydreams about hanging her head on a wall so he can fuck coeds in front of her, and seemed in all ways to hate his wife.
Sorry, but to be a worse husband in my opinion, he’d have to be shown beating her.
I always thought that Endora’s attitude towards Darrin was perfectly justified. What a prick.
