* The Dursleys are an odd case. They're certainly not nice people, given that they openly despise Harry and his magic and basically made him live in a closet when he grew up. Almost nobody is out there trying to redeem Vernon ([[MemeticMutation at least not ironically]]), in many respects the embodiment of everything JK Rowling thinks is wrong with British society, but Petunia and Dudley might be redeemable. Most fans focus on Petunia, whom they portray as TheUnfavorite compared to her magically inclined sister Lily (who [[RonTheDeathEater is often thrown under the bus]] as a snobbish bully). JK Rowling, incidentally, thinks it's ''Dudley'' who can be redeemed, feeling that while he's certainly an asshole, most of his actions are a result of bad parenting (Dumbledore even calls out his parents for it).
