Lightning and Owen are ones I would rank so much lower, they truly are one-note characters. Lightning just wasn't anymore deserving of his finalist spot in Revenge than Mike/Mal or Zoey were in All-Stars, simply because the guy is just there. He has nothing to work with besides a handful of funny moments, most of which were in Episodes 9 and 10 of Revenge. I'll give him that, I liked him in those two, but otherwise this is the character who puts me to sleep.

Owen was a charming guy in Island, but his character just got lost from that point onward. Personally I dislike that he's a personal favorite of the producers because that means they'll keep finding excuses to bring him back without bothering to develop him again. His main thing is fart humor, and that gets old very fast; plus he's done some questionable things and just comes off as clueless sometimes, and not in the old charming way anymore. And yet somehow they keep trying to find ways to force his return. In Action his return did no favors to his character and he only made a cameo in All-Stars because from what I understand, CN insisted on it. (Wait, he also made a Babe Olympics comment in World Tour?)

Whereas a returning character like Izzy is still fun to watch because you never know what to expect from that crazy redhead, with Owen you know exactly what you're going to get from him every time. I despise it when a character's only defining trait is toilet/binging humor. That just makes characters like Owen stale and predictable, and one who wears out his welcome really fast.

To each their own of course, though. I just personally find these two flat and unfunny.
