History DracoInLeatherPants / LiveActionTV

* Sam Puckett in ''{{iCarly}}'' is something of an unusual example, being a main character and on a children's show, but her behavior is occasionally pretty monstrous for a regular high school girl. Her biggest target is Freddie Benson, the male in their power trio. Her behavior towards him is generally washed away in Sam/Freddie fanfic with a line like "I hurt you because I love you," and that 1) Makes her treatment of him alright and 2) Has somehow made Freddie fall in love with her anyway.

** A lot of people's problem with Dukat's later portrayal is not that he's a villain - that was clearly established early on - but that his EvilEpiphany is ''extremely'' {{Anvilicious}} and results in him going from an AntiVillain to a [[CardCarryinVillain Card Carrying One]].

*** Now, don't forget, she also makes him soup one time, AndThat'sTerrible. And any sensible person can see that Jaynes comments are more meant to be a troubling insight into how he thinks about guns, not women.

** Heck, after [[spoiler: he got his soul back]] this troper found one fanfiction author who argued adamantly that there was nothing wrong with Spike [[spoiler: before he had his soul]] on the grounds that all morality was relative anyone, and whose every fiction included Spike [[spoiler: losing his soul again]] to fix the writers' horrible mistake.

* The Master from ''DoctorWho'', particularly in his Anthony Ainley and John Simm incarnations. In fan fiction, he's usually not portrayed as the murderous psychopath he is (he wiped out a '''whole portion of the universe'''!), but as just a mischievous, quirky, sexy guy who just wants to have some FoeYay with the Doctor.

** Then there was Ouja of ''KamenRiderRyuki", real immoral AxCrazy BloodKnight Sociopath who some are wooed by his evilness and sinister agenda out of pure personal reasons, something that was absent from the older KamenRider series.

* Todd Manning from ''OneLifeToLive''. Gang-rape, terrorizing a blind woman and beating his teenage daughter´s friends without any provocation ([[KarmaHoudini and still not being in jail for it!]]) haven't stopped him from becoming favorite among some aggressively protective "He´s so hot!" fans. It is very much case of {{Perverse Sexual Lust}}.

* Also, let's not forget the [[{{AscendedExtra}} Ascended Extra]]s / [[{{SpearCarrier}} Spear Carriers]] referred to as Kath, Tasha, Angela, Ramona, Claire and Ken in ''{{Casualty}}'' and a tan-skinned extra who rarely has any dialogue in ''[[{{HolbyCity}} Holby City]]''.
* Lyle from {{The Pretender}}

* ''The End of Time'' left it very clear that [[DoctorWho Rassilion]] was evil. However, we can now rename DracoInLeatherPants and finally name it Rassilion In Leather Pants, because Romana was the [[EvilOverlord Evil Overlady]] behind the whole thing!

** This is often what happens in a lot of Season 3 [[PortmantueCoupleName Fuffy]] fan-fiction that is not a what if [[Spoiler: the mayor did not make Faith evil type thing.]]

*** Again, the given explanation: he's white, he's black, therefore he must abuse her. InsaneTrollLogic, indeed.

** One fanfic out there was, in its entirety, a "Lore For President" flyer.

* Gene Hunt, the "overweight, over-the-hill, nicotine-stained, borderline alcoholic homophobe with a superiority complex and an unhealthy obsession with male bonding" DCI in {{LifeonMars}} and {{AshestoAshes}} has somehow become a huge sex symbol.

* Billy Mitchell was introduced to ''{{Eastenders}}'' as an abusive bastard who beat the living hell out of his nephew Jamie. For some unfathomable reason, fans liked him. He was [[{{VillaiDecay}} slowly turned into a gentle, nice, and weak man]] who was given all the "touching" plot-lines about a nice man with a hard life, totally ignoring the earlier child-abuse plotlines.
