* ''Series/Cain2012'' has perhaps the single most famous French example of using DisabilityAsAnExcuseForJerkassery in its eponymous protagonist, a jerk and CowboyCop in a wheelchair. The more conventionally heroic qualities are given to his colleague, Lieutenant Lucie Delambre.

** Lex was pragmatic before becoming evil. Then, he had flawed methods but he genuinely wanted to stop his father Lionel and be a good friend to Clark.
** When Lionel Luthor redeems himself, he is still as ruthless and manipulative as he was before.
** By Season 10, both [[TookALevelInBadass Chloe Sullivan]] and [[HeelFaceTurn Tess Mercer]] have this air to them. Ironically, they're both MissionControl who have been noted to be similar.

** ''Series/KamenRiderGotchard'': Just like Baron, Supana Kurogane is on the side of the heroes, though he's hardly polite to majority of them and especially hostile to TheHero (Houtaro Ichinose). He also thinks the creatures the alchemists accidentally created are merely tools, unlike Houtaro believing they are sentient creatures who can live together with mankind. [[spoiler:Some CharacterDevelopment started by witnessing his past helps him be a little nicer, though he still wants to work alone and only takes Chemies whose views aligns with his.]]

* A good portion of the cast in ''Series/HomicideLifeOnTheStreet'' fall into this.
** Frank Pembleton is an [[{{Jerkass}} abrasive]] InsufferableGenius with a HairTriggerTemper who loves bullying his colleagues, especially his much-suffering best friend and partner Bayliss. He's also sincerely dedicated to finding justice for murder victims, and is such an AllLovingHero that he'll try to avenge anyone regardless of who they were in life.
** Bayliss himself is a gentle, empathetic man, but he's also a deeply unstable RabidCop prone to violent outbursts.
** Munch is a NominalHero who can occasionally be sincerely altruistic, but is generally a lazy, apathetic cynic more focused on getting an easier workload than doing his job. He's kept mostly sympathetic through numerous PetTheDog moments, especially when children are involved.
** Felton is a massive {{Jerkass}} who spends his time insulting and harassing his colleagues for very little reason, and is prone to bouts of incompetence. He does have a few PetTheDog moments and is quite nice to his best friend Howard.
** Gharty is a racist coward who no one particularly likes, but he still does his job to the best of his ability.

* ''Series/BostonLegal'' -- [[BunnyEarsLawyer Alan Shore]] is lecherous, conniving, snarky to a fault and one of the most dedicated defense attorneys at Crane, Poole and Schmidt, who routinely does tough cases ProBono for friends who need help navigating the law. The best example of his heroism was when he successfully got a man let off for bludgeoning his mother to death with a skillet, and [[KnightInSourArmor regretted it]] when the bastard killed again.
