Snow:
Although she is actually a really good character at times (in certain plotlines in season 1 when she is badass and bold), she is often way too nice, too moral, too gentle and overall too perfect for a character. I get she is supposed to be pure as snow, but she is at her best when she is more colorful and sadly she gradually only becomes more of a stay-at-home mom rather than a hero and a princess. Another issue is the fact that her relationship with Charming defines her instead of a woman defined as a whole by herself.
Charming:
From the beginning, Charming was less than charming... He can be a pain in the ass. He's not the sharpest pencil. He doesn't stick with a true "character" and instead juggles between situations inconsistently. He is supposed to be heroic but very often he is more scared than anyone around him. To be fair he sometimes is Charming.
Henry:
He is kind of useless, unimportant to the plot until it's convenient (like the breaking of the curse in the season 1 finale) and the acting is weak.
Grumpy:
In the first season he was actually a cool, funny and relatable character. Then he became very minor to the plot and all of a sudden he became the official panic-spreader of the town. From a character to a caricature.
Jiminy Cricket:
Like Snow, he is too damn nice, moral and calm. Also he always analyzes people and treats them like patients. And he is irrelavent to the plot.
Blue Fairy:
Self-righteous, vain, ruins people's lives (Tink, Nova).
Zelena:
Feels more like a brand of cola than a person- too many catchfrases and "coolness". Her origin story is also stupid and just another family issue.
Greg & Tamara:
Horrible actors, horrible characters, worst antagonists. The idea of "muggles" wanting to destroy magic is not too shabby, but the execution was terrible.
Ariel:
She is just too dumb, naive and acts like she's in a shampoo commercial.
Elsa:
Before anything, I don't exactly hate her, I just don't like that she is always behaving in the very same emotions: fear, hesitation, pain. She is not annoying... but the lifeless writing of her character is (as opposed to the witty, funny and sassy Anna and Kristoff, and the amazing snow queen Ingrid).
August:
As hunky and delicious as he is, August is a real douchebag. He abandoned Emma, he's a (wait-for-it...) liar, an egoist and interesant person.
Graham:
He is just too gullible to survive even one season of the show. Always confused, juggling between women, and what's with murdering animals then crying over their bodies? WTF man get a grip.
Maurice (Belle's father):
A case of overprotective, bossy, lousy father.
Sindey / Mirror / Ginny:
He is a twoface backstabber, anybody's puppet, and he is always up to no good.
