The Walking Dead: 10 Most Annoying Side Characters

8. Dawn Lerner

Dawn's basic inability to even human is what makes her so annoying in Season 5. She has forgotten what it's like to feel compassion or sympathy for others but she does so in order for her to maintain control of the officers and 'prisoners' of the hospital. She believes that people are expendable and that their loyalty can be gained through fear, but the fact that she uses her gender as a reason for acting in this manner is shocking. Apparently women can only be efficient leaders if they act like a robot by omitting all emotions and only concentrating on violence and threats. She has no right or moral obligation to keep people like Beth and Noah at the hospital against their will, and to then blame her violent actions on her gender as though that's the reason that she needs to act so brutally to gain the respect of her male peers is ludicrous. Depending on which team you were on, she was also responsible for Beth's death which meant that Daryl's potential love interest was gone. Dawn was responsible for Daryl's unhappiness and when he cries, we cry. Maggie was upset by this situation also...
