Do we like Joffrey Baratheon?

A character from Game of Thrones (2011–2014)

Our score: 0 out of 10. No. He's a petty, sadistic bully who treats power as a toy and other people as playthings. Even his own family struggles to rein him in.

Joffrey is introduced as the golden-haired prince and the eldest son of Queen Cersei and King Robert Baratheon. Game of Thrones is a sprawling fantasy about noble houses fighting over the Iron Throne. Joffrey's family sits on it, and he has been raised to believe that makes him untouchable.

Joffrey is petulant, vain and cruel, and he is a coward behind a crown. He enjoys other people's pain, he lashes out at anyone who disappoints him, and he can't take advice or criticism. His treatment of Sansa Stark, who is betrothed to him, shows the worst of him. Jack Gleeson played him so well that he became one of TV's best-loved hate figures. That's why he scores a flat zero.

Once he becomes king, he shows how dangerous he is. He orders the execution of the honourable Eddard Stark, which launches the devastating War of the Five Kings. When Stannis Baratheon attacks King's Landing, Joffrey flees the battle and his army's morale suffers. His reign ends at his own wedding feast, the Purple Wedding, where he is poisoned. Few viewers mourned him.
