10 Times TV Heroes Became The Bad Guy In Their Own Show
10. Tony Almeida - 24
I'd be remiss if Jack Bauer didn't get a mention as a good-bad hero in the hit show 24. While Jack was a morally ambiguous individual, his efforts were always "the right thing" even if that committing crimes against the Geneva Convention.
Tony Almeida wasn't a top-shelf character in the first season, but evolved from the second onward into a beloved and valued partner in anti-terrorism to Jack.
After being "killed" at the beginning of the fifth season, his death was noted as not having the infamous silent clock that paid tribute to beloved characters who passed away on the show. And fans speculated.
It came as no surprise that in season seven Tony Almeida was actually alive, but working alongside a domestic terrorist group in Washington D.C.
Soon after, Tony reveals he was actually undercover, and had been working with Chloe O'Brien and Bill Buchanan the entire time to bring down the terrorist cell.
The circumstances after this reveal are too bonkers to explain; but Tony had done some villainous things to get close to the head of a domestic terrorist conspiracy. His final scene with Jack might paint Tony as the fallen hero, but he's still a bad guy.
