Worst Hey Arnold! Characters

The Top Ten
1 Big Bob Pataki

He is self-centered and seems disrespectful to Helga. And it is obvious that Helga can't stand to be around him in the Hey Arnold Quantity Time episode. Usually the outings intended for "father and daughter bonding" turned out to be to places Bob wanted to go, making it all about him. Helga wanted to go to Wrestle Mania. Sometimes I think Big Bob talks down to his wife and sees her as a pushover which may explain why she's all run down with seemingly no identity and mental strength left. So to cope with the miserable marriage, she drowns her pain in smoothies to keep it age appropriate for child viewers. Because in reality, the smoothies she downs actually represents alcohol in disguise. That's my theory on the marriage among Miriam and Big Bob. Notice that Helga resents him when he tries to order her around like the time when he was competing against Arnold's grandpa in golf after they got into a feud with each other for making each other's cars scratched. He probably orders Miriam ...more

He's got to be the most insensitive to the feelings of others. I wish a man would try to order me around like that as a wife and talk to my kid any type of way even if the kid was his son/daughter too. I'd divorce him in a heartbeat. Big Bob is clearly not husband and father material. He is divorce material that needs to be self-centered and disrespectful all by himself. Don't nobody got time for that. I am surprised Marium has not left Big Bob. No woman should have to go through that. Marriage is supposed to be a beautiful, yet imperfect thing, not a landmine of miserynlije that. I mean, look at them. They obviously are unattentive to Helga but dote on the oldest daughter Olga when she comes home from college. In one episode, Olga reveals that she is sick and tired of all that attention from Big Bob and Marium like she's some kind of windup doll on the piano. For that reason, Olga also says Helga actually has a better deal that they don't even notice her.

You said it, Anonymousxcxc! He's also the reason Miriam is so run down and has no spirit left.

He's disgusting. poor helga, and why is mirium so far down the list

2 Oskar Kokoshka

Every single time this guy came on screen I would just close my eyes and shake my head and wish he was gone when I opened them

He is the only character in Hey Arnold that I hate.

He is lazy good for nothing bearded man

His voice is so annoying.

3 Olga Pataki

If she loved helga SO much, why didn't she speak up for her, why did let her parents ignore helga, olga has ugly name and she's a retard

Stupid spoiled entitled perfectionist whiney brat. Reminds me of someone I know.

I really can't stand her and the whole damn family with the exception of Helga.

4 Wolfgang

Give him a super big spanking

5 Lila Sawyer Lila Sawyer is a fictional character from the 90s Nickelodeon cartoon Hey Arnold created by Craig Bartlett. She's generally known for being nice and kind to her classmates which disgusts Helga Pataki. She also has a crush on Arnold's cousin Arnie. In the series she's revealed to be poor next to being a country/ rural girl. Most of the boys in her class admire her.

She's so annoying, and the fact that she puts on this fake Nice girl next door facade is pathetic, she acts like she's clueless but she knows EXACTLY what she's doing. She's bland, boring, and the fact that Arnold saved her from literally drowning and she literally didn't even like like him after that is pathetic.

She clearly has 0 standards considering she likes Arnold's cousin who LOOKS EXACTLY LIKE HIM, but is blander and has 0 personality exactly like her is embarrassing. Honestly I'd rather deal with Rhonda's bragging condescending attitude than her bland fake goody two-shoes personality-less personality.

Hey Arnold is one of my favorite shows from my childhood. And, believe it or not, Big Bob, Principal Wartz, Olga, and Rhonda didn't bug me all that much. Oh sure, they had their moments where they could be pretty despicable, but the fact is they were redeemable. Lila, and I cannot stress this word enough, was the ONLY character on the show that genuinely annoyed me. Firstly, she was a Mary-Sue characters who had little to no flaws what so ever (in a show that at the end of the day was in the Slice-Of-Life genre and all the characters, including the titular one, had flaws). Another thing that was obnoxious about Lila was the way she talked. She spoke to everyone as if she were speaking to infants and that alone made me want to strangle her. Finally, there was the lovely fact that she was always (and I mean ALWAYS) happy. Look, I know as much as the next person that you generally get further in life with a smile than you do with a scowl, but at the same time, there is no ' way that you can be 100 percent happy 100 percent of the time. And Lila was. Again, in a show with characters that have flaws Lila sticks out like a sore thumb. I felt at times that she didn't belong in Hey Arnold. In Fact, I still feel that way. Was totally happy that she only got a bit-part in Hey Arnold the Jungle Movie. Seems like even the creators were annoyed by her too.

6 Willie the Jolly Olly Man
7 Miriam Pataki

She's always drunk

8 Principal Wartz

Screw you, Wartz-hating prick! He's not a bad guy! He's just doing' his job.

9 Edmund
10 Rhonda Wellington Lloyd Rhonda Wellington Lloyd is a fictional character from the 90s Nickelodeon cartoon Hey Arnold. She's generally known for being rich and stuck up. Along with that she cares very deeply about fashion. Her best friend is Nadine. She generally hates people that are "geeks" and refuses to be around them or to hang out with them.

At Least I'm not the only one who hates her

She is a bratty version of Muffy from "Arthur" (To be honest though ' Muffy is sortta bratty.)

The Contenders
11 Sid

Every time there's a single episode focused on Harold and Stinky, it makes them more likable.
Every time there's one focused on this kid, it makes him more... annoying.

12 Eugene Horowitz

Thinks he is the luckiest person ever and at on point considers Arnold a jinx. It's irritating that he is just too positive and weird.

I don't find him annoying at all but u know who I find really annoying who is also sweet and positive also? LILA

So positive to the point its annoying. And not to mention the itsy bitsy spider.

I hate Eugene, because he is gay and he looks like a penis.

13 Iggy

The most well developed HA! character. Take this off the list, punk.

All because Arnold betrayed him.

All because he held a grudge.

Iggy should be 1

14 Ludwig
15 Big Gino
16 Ruth McDougal
17 Helga Gerdaline Pataki

She is nine years old, immature. In her teens she and Arnold would date. She has a terrible family. Drunk/drugged mother, father who doesn't care about her, he always forgets how old she is, and they only love and care about her older sister.

She's a bully with a bad personality. Plenty of people have a bad home life and don't act as rotten as her. I'm surprised she's not higher on the list.

You mean a girl who has a father who doesn't even know how old she is, hates her. Her mother is drunk or a crackhead. They love their older sister more, who is ruder.

The way some people talk about her, she's not evil, immaturity yeah she's a kid. Angelica Pickles who is Three Years Old behaved worse.

18 Timberly - Hey Arnold
19 Stoop Kid

Stupid teenager who harasses people for even looking or walking by ‘his’ stoop. He even tricked aaronld just so he can harass people off the stoop and did so by crying like a big baby because people found out he’s afraid to leave the stoop. I feel more sorry for Harold anytime than I can muster for this stupid d-bag! I don't understand how aarnold could even feel sorry for this prick knowing he deserves to be harassed by people he harassed for no reason! In my head, after he chased Harold for throwing garbage on his porch, idoit kid chased him, Harold ran across the street with idoit boy following him but he gets hit by a semi & dies & everybody lives happily ever after. Or that he beats up Harold but is lost & can't find his way home, starves & dies & everyone pisses on his grave! F this guy!

20 Harold

Stupid bully who doesn't care for anyone

He is a boy and he wears a crop top. How stupid!

You such fat ass

21 Arnie
