10 Pointless TV Characters Who Served Absolutely No Purpose

2. T-Dogg, "The Walking Dead"

walking Poor T-Dogg. This guy was one of the least developed characters in recent TV memory. We found out nothing about his past or what kind of person he was. He was simply...there. He wasn't an annoying character, but there was no reason to root for him. For all we know, he could have been a serial killer or a circus clown in his pre-apocolyptic life. He had almost no dialogue throughout his time on the show and his most memorable line was "Aw HELL no!" When he was devoured by walkers in one of the most gruesome death scenes of the series, it made me wonder why the writers kept him around so long just to brutally kill him. I can't remember him doing anything significant. So were we supposed to be really sad? Let's just say that I tried.
