Who are the most useless characters on television?

It's one thing to make a list of the characters on television that you consider useless and not worth anyone's time, the characters we probably wouldn't miss if they were to vanish from their shows. It's another thing, though, to name a child from a reality show on that list. That's what the New York Post's PopWrap blog does. This list of the top 10 most useless characters includes someone named Mady from Jon and Kate Plus 8, which is apparently a reality show. The blog calls this girl - who is a real person dragged on to the show by adults and not a character and not an actress - "selfish, egocentric, whiner, not a joiner - that parents would use genetic testing to eradicate if it were an option." Yowza, that's quite a statement. Other people on the list include Mohinder from Heroes (can't really argue with that after this season), Ignacio from Ugly Betty (that's a bad choice), Shane from Weeds, and Mike from Desperate Housewives.
