Mike and Zoey, they're really only rivalled by Owen. They actually managed to cast aside Duncan just for a second round of their old romance from Revenge. Which is just insane, Duncan has always been their second lovechild.

That is except for Owen. Even when they cut him a break, they always find a new excuse to bring him back, even when he has nothing to contribute. Apparently RR still isn't enough for some fans either. Yet he's probably one of the least compelling and slowest developing screenhogs.

Gwen, for sure. She's always being played squarely in the right, even when she is squarely in the wrong. And when it comes to drama in the war among the shippers, she's the go-to gal.

Courtney as well. But mostly because they want to keep her around for the drama she creates, regardless of how many pegs she's knocked down each time they do it. Doesn't matter that her character goes nowhere and that she is kept firmly in a negative light, so long as they have someone to knock around among the screenhogs, why should anyone give an F, right?
