I'll provide some examples from The Ridonculous Race, the Haters & the Surfer Dudes.

Haters: They evaded elimination the most times (mostly due to the "This was a non-elimination episode only because an 'Important' character lost" trope) and ultimately got 5th place despite contributing nothing other than being a more toxic version of Duncney which was either hilarious (though I really don't understand how this could be) or their constant arguments and yelling were so painfully insufferable that they would border on ear bleeding levels.

Surfer Dudes: They initially lasted until the 21st episode despite not really having any plot (or at least a long lasting or impactful one) and mostly being limited to the background. And then when they did return those episodes were shamefully biased in order to have everything go their way and ultimately cheat a far more deserving team out of the finale.
