Find out here…"},"content":{"rendered":"

From a young age, TV teaches us that goodies are better than baddies; from the Power Rangers kicking seven bells out of some alien threat to the Teletubbies defeating the evil screaming sun with bowls of pink custard (or did we just dream that episode?), we\u2019re taught that we should always root for good over evil.<\/p>\n

But sometimes, it\u2019s hard not to cheer on the baddies just a little bit. Whether they\u2019re downright cool or just so evil that you can\u2019t help but admire their commitment to the dark side, TV is full of baddies that we just love to hate.<\/p>\n

In honour of the release of The Walking Dead: Season 4<\/i> on DVD today (which features the 1st<\/sup> villain in our list), we\u2019ve put together a list of a few of our favourite TV baddies. Can\u2019t see your favourite here? Let us know in the comments.<\/p>\n

(P.S: there are loads of SPOILERS in this post; you\u2019ve been warned!)<\/b><\/p>\n

The Governor – The Walking Dead<\/h3>\n

\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

Forget zombies: the biggest danger in The Walking Dead is Philip Blake, an ordinary bloke driven completely insane by the apocalypse.<\/p>\n

On the face of it, Philip seems to be quite a reasonable and even friendly guy. He runs his own safe haven for survivors, which earns him the affectionate nickname \u201d The Governor\u2019.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, Philip is less Barack Obama and more Darth Vader when it comes to leadership. He murders people who get in his way, holds brutal bare-knuckle fights (inside a circle of zombies) and eventually tries to oust the main character Rick and his gang from their prison because he likes the look of it.<\/p>\n

To seal his evil credentials, The Governor also wears an eyepatch and keeps his zombified daughter in a cupboard.<\/p>\n

Sideshow Bob – The Simpsons<\/h3>\n

\"Sideshow<\/a><\/p>\n

The story of Sideshow Bob, the arch-nemesis and frequent attempted murderer of Bart Simpson, is a tragic one. Starting a career as a children\u2019s TV sidekick, Bob was subjected to a series of unfortunate events that ended in him going to jail thanks to a certain spiky-haired troublemaker.<\/p>\n

This led to an unending quest for revenge against young Bart, a quest that (to date) has failed miserably on numerous occasions. His most notable failure involves a field full of rakes.<\/p>\n
