Ranking The Main Characters Of Schitt's Creek From Worst To Best

12. Mutt Schitt

The main problem with Mutt is that his premature departure from the show prevented his character from going through any form of satisfying arc that all the other recurring characters got to experience.

The son of Roland and Jocelyn Schitt, Mutt is a reclusive figure amongst the townspeople, living out in a barn at the edge of town. Over the course of the first two seasons before Mutt left the show as a regular (he would appear a further two more times in total), Mutt dated Twyla and then Alexis.

Both relationships felt very surface level and, in particular, when comparing Mutt to Alexis' other romantic interest on the show Ted, The barn dwelling Schitt falls short of what would come later.

Perhaps if he was given the opportunity to change as a person in later appearances, he would be better received. But, Mutt essentially was just a distraction for Alexis on her own path to maturity.
