I used to hate King Joffrey in Game of Thrones. After like 2-3 years I realized if that actor can make you hate them, it means they are doing their job REALLY REALLY well.

This, if you hate a character, 9 times out of 10 they are killing it.

There is a difference between hate the performance and hate the character you see on screen. Most complaints I have read regarding the boys firmly falls firmly in the first category.
I think it's pretty clear the girls carry this show. You can leave Wednesday feeling Jenna Ortega is irreplicable in that role, I don't think most of us feel this way about any of the male characters. They didn't elicit strong feelings of hate, validating a performance, they were just less interesting than their female counter parts.

I disagree with that. Maybe in some rare cases.

And what examples can you possibly give where when an actor accomplishes their job of making you hate them, actually means they're not doing their job well?

You would hate Joffrey regardless of who played him.

Why do people constantly parrot this shit? You would probably hate him even more, if he was played by a shit actor.
