It's quite interesting to see how many found McKay annoying since he has a very big fanbase, too and as far as I can remember won a spacey award, too.
For me the most annoying character was Kinsey. Want to switch to another channel every time he came up on the show. Fortunately he was never on SGA.
I quite like every character in SGA, even Kavanagh (didn't like him in 38 minutes, but change that opinion in Midway) and Bates (like him in Outcast, was nice to see him there again and nicer). If I ever would have watch "Harmony" I'm sure she would have annoyed me, too. But I have never watch it and don't attempt to do so since I hate Episodes with those brats.
All of the McKay fans have resorted to sequestering themselves into the far reaches of the McKay/Hewlett appreciation thread, where they create fanfic to their hearts' content.
In all seriousness, were it not for Atlantis McKay probably would be on my list as well.
The writers and TPTB's blatant over use of Rodney was just obsessive and the writers even have said they can only write for Rodney, and that is a shame.
The writers used Rodney as a crutch and at the expense of the rest of the characters and actors.
I feel for David on watching/seeing how much dialog the writers gave him. They didn't do him any favors at all. I don't think they even THOUGHT about how much work they gave David to do. David had to learn 30 or 40 pages of crap, while every one else just grunted, held up a wall or just said "WOW" a lot
His over use got on my nerves, through no fault of David/Rodney.
I stand by Rodney! He rocks
P.S hic-up girl.......Novac
I just thought of another one... Anubis's right hand guy....he bugged me.
and Cassandra....
On a side note why do the writers make the kids on Stargate out to be brats? I think they might have watched Chitty Chitty Bang Bang too much.....
Walter!!
Landry
Lam
Mitchell (in the series; I liked him in Continuum) Martouf - there was something about him that made me distrust him and really annoyed me although I can't put my finger on it Narim - he was just so dull.. Dr Lee (post season 7) Pete
many recurring/guest characters in the last 2 seasons, but especially: Vala's father, guard from the Bad Guys, aliens from PU and LA episodes, Orlin in a child form (I liked him as an adult though)
There's a good chance this opinion is shared by Ashizuri

Hrm, I beg to differ. But for your excellent use of "sequester", I'll not launch into an infraction-warranting tirade
I found people like Kinsey and Simmons really annoying, and of course, good ol' Lucius, but I also found them really fun to hate. The show wouldn't be the same without them.
Tanith -- Something about his sly attitude always bothered me
Ryac -- At least, when he was young. That brainwashing episode, I wanted to bang his head into a wall
Unas -- Any of 'em. Go ahead, call me an Unas racist. I don't find whispered/growled "Chaka" entertaining, I find it 'fingernails on a chalkboard'
Lucius -- He was supposed to be....funny?
Ronan -- They replaced Ford, with his whole cool rogue quasi-Wraith angle, with this uninteresting thug? Ugh.
Runner-up:Jennifer Hailley -- Unbelievably annoying, but still not quite so bad as....
The Winner:Rodney McKay -- The absolute granddaddy of of all the most annoying characters in fiction. I didn't like him to begin with; by the end I hoped beyond all hope that he'd suffer long and horrible, before dying a meaningless death. Die. Die. Die.
** No offense intended toward the actors here. I don't know about the others, but David Hewlett seems (from all the behind-the-scenes stuff I've seen) like he's absolutely hilarious and a great guy to be around.
Well, I have to disagree about the Unas and Ronon, but for everything else...well, I didn't even remember Hailey, but now that you mentioned her I keep thinking about her sitting grumpily in the auditorium chair, I plan to never watch the Lucius episodes again...
And as for Rodney? I agree wholeheartedly! You couldn't have put it better.
Did I make you angry? BAHAHAHHAHAHA! J.K. Actually, the character I find most annoying is
Spoiler:
almost the entire Jaffa Nation. No joke this time. Always blaming the Tok'ra for this, blaming the Tau'ri for that. Whiny undisciplined morons.
Ehehehe.
