Most Overrated Thomas and Friends Characters

The Top Ten
1 Thomas

Thomas will always have a special place in my heart. However, that doesn't mean I don't get sick of him ocassionaly. Thomas recently has been over glorified with his many appearances in episodes and specials. Now don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that Thomas should be cut from the show (which would NEVER happen), but he needs to be toned down. I'd rather see characters such as Edward, Murdoch, Toby, and other minor characters make more appearances. Thomas has a good story, but there really isn't much to add, plus, does he really have to appear ALL THE TIME? Look at The Great Race, by having the story around Thomas, it was, well, "Meh! ". I would love personally to see a special surrounding Edward, maybe start with him as a young engine and progress to the future? Now THERE is an idea for a special! All the same, I'd like to see other unbaked characters get more development, let Thomas sit on the back burner for a while. He does have an interesting story, but there could be a lot more ...more

How dare you insult the no. 1 train!

2 Smudger

Why are people obsessed with this guy? he BARELY has a personality, he was only in 1 episode, never seen or mentioned again, and he was only there to teach the narrow gauge engines not to miss-behave! WHY THE HECK DO PEOPLE WANT HIM BACK?!

4 Gordon

Gordon is so underrated because he's mean and he's always boasting about something And he doesn't know what he's doing a lot times I don't think we need engines like that in the show?

He just NEVER learns his lesson! He's too boastful, jealous and he is worst than the diesels! Why do people like him!

Did you that Gordon was streamlined once and he was the same prototype as Connor was in the great race?

He’s so silly mean and rude He laughs at James and Thomas and teases them! He is so jealous of them especially Henry

5 Hiro
6 Thumper

Wait, this guy is overrated? I mean, I like him, but, I thought practically no one even remembers this guy.

I remember I had a Thumper toy

7 Victor
8 James
9 Henry
10 Duck

There are as many people who know Duck as there are people who know the famous Quack audio clip.

The Contenders
11 Bertram

Duke also appeared in season 7.

12 Neville
13 Percy
14 Terence

Don't get me wrong, Terence is a good character but compared to many other characters, his personality isn't present and he doesn't really add anything useful in the stories. Much like Billy or Molly, he is only needed about once or twice but then plays no value to the whole franchise.

15 Rheneas

Okay now you are saying that every character is overrated.
