The Walking Dead: 10 Most Pointless Characters
2. Ron
You'd think the person who shot out Carl's eye would serve a higher purpose.
Ron was introduced as the older brother of the dysfunctional Anderson family, and a potential friend for Carl to hang out with. His mother Jessie was a love interest for Rick after he killed Pete, who was an abusive husband, and this did create friction between the boys.
However, the problem comes when this understandable reason for hatred was completely glossed over in favour of jealousy. Ron was dating Enid, and when Carl and her began to get closer, he got jealous and wanted to kill him. A terrible motivation that's extremely cliche, and not really believable when compared to Pete's death.
His death at the hands of Michonne was appreciated by the fans, as this useless character was incredibly unlikeable. Good riddance.
