Wesley Crusher is right up there with Scrappy Doo and Poochie as far as hated fictional characters, and Wil Wheaton knows exactly why.

I don't get all the Wesley hate.

No Star Trek character in franchise history has been more hated than Wesley Crusher

I don't think this author watched past tng. Kai Winn and Dukat would like a word.

The important distinction, I believe, is that Kai Winn and Dukat were villains, characters designed to be hated. Wesley was supposed to be a precocious scamp, bringing levity and juvenility to an otherwise dry and mature crew, but just ended up being... Wesley.
