I got this from iskolar in the Oscar forum. Iskolar got the idea from the Grammy forum. Let 'em rip and say why.

Elisabeth Röhm. She was horrid on Law & Order. I can't consider her an actress.

Eva Longoria. And she's actually grown on me. I used to despise her, but I like her a lot now. She makes me laugh more than anyone else on her show.

Oh yes, Teri Hatcher! I just can't like her. Neither can I like Connie Britton and, although I think his performance is great, I can't get me into Terry O'Quinn.

Terry O'Quinn is so handsome and debonair. I'd get with him.

Tracy Morgan - i've tried, but he is so annoying and one note. everything he says comes out the exact same way.

Evangeline Lily - more her character than anything else.

Roseanne - i never really liked her show and i NEVER liked her acting. she does the same thing all the time. And that laugh... But at least her show got Laurie Metcalf recognition.

Katherine Heigl - from her overacting in the first season of grey's, her unjustified emmy win, her unwarranted contract disputes, and even her name correction at the emmys, she's pretty annoying. With that being said, she did earn alot of points when she criticized her character in Knocked Up and the george and izzie storyline, at least she tells the truth.

Jerry Seinfeld - I respect his place in the TV comedy pantheon, but his brand of humor does nothing for me.

Larry David - Again, I respect him, esp. as a writer, but ultimately he makes me uncomfortable, even when not CYE.

Patricia Arquette - She just feels wooden and emotionless, IMO.

Neil Patrick Harris- I've never seen anything by him that warrants the constant raving I see on these boards.

Something about Balthazar Getty on Brothers & Sisters just rubs me the wrong way. I just don't like him.

Roseanne - I just never liked her or her show.

Jerry Seinfeld - The man is a snoozefest when he's not doing stand-up, and since we're talking about acting here, there's my reason for not caring for him. He wasn't even funny on "Seinfeld"; al 3 of his co-stars were funnier, IMO.

Matt LeBlanc - Don't get me wrong, he was hilarious on "Friends" but I just hated the way he played the Joey character sometimes.

Charlie Sheen - His delivery is so...dead. I don't understand why he gets these nominations so often.

Steve Carell - He's overrated. BIG time.

Roselyn Sanchez - She's honestly one of the most horrible actors/actresses that I've ever witnessed in my entire life.

Helen Hunt - I never could stand her on "Mad About You" and the fact that she won 4 consecutive Emmys for it didn't help.

Katherine Heigl - At first, I didn't dislike her; I simply didn't care for her. Now, I can't even like her even if I wanted to considering that she won an Emmy that was completely undeserved. I know that it wasn't her own doing, but still. Also, she plays her character on "Grey's Anatomy" so annoyingly. She has some good moments, but she just irks me most of the time. She's also given way too much credit, considering that she's in a cast with Chandra Wilson and Sandra Oh--two actresses that can act circles & rings around her on their worst days.

Patricia Arquette - For me, she just brings no passion to her acting on "Medium." There are far better dramatic actresses on TV right now than her, and just like Heigl, she has an Emmy that she shouldn't have.

Patricia Arquette--- i don't why i've tried so hard to like her but she just annoys me to no end.

Kyra Sedgwick- i don't understand why people love her so much, she seems pretty one-note to me.


Ron Carvalit, you are my hero!

Patrick Dempsey - I don't get him or his character on Grey's Anatomy. Watching him is like nails on a chalkboard.

Rebecca Romijn - It's hit or miss with her. I'll like her a lot in some episodes of Betty, but othertimes, she annoys the heck out of me.

Kevin Dillon - I don't buy his schtick. As much as I try to like him, I don't.

Eric Dane...TERRIBLE TERRIBLE ACTOR!
Evangeline Lilly...something about her is just so amateur.
Connie Britton...one of the most overrated actresses ever (especially on this board)
Charlie Sheen...though I don't think I've ever even tried to like him!
Conchata Ferrell...she sounds like she's reading directly from the script every time.

I don't think i've ever agreed with a statement so much before.

It makes me insane that she has emmy nominations for her role on TAAHM. And i STILL don't understand the praise for her tape last year. that crying scene was terrible and fake.
