Top 10 TV Characters That Peaked In High School

They might have ruled the school, but these characters weren't exactly Nobel Prize winners in the making. Though we still love (most) of them.

1. Francie of Gilmore Girls

She was like, the leader of the Puffs and wanted to raise hemlines. Watch out, world.

2. Dan Scott of One Tree Hill

He was a basketball star and got two bitches pregnant within months of graduating. Then abandoned his son, murdered his brother, and spent the tail end of the show trying to redeem himself. His wife tried to burn him alive. 'Nuff said.

3. Jenny Humphrey of Gossip Girl

As much as we loved Little J, she was a mean bitch and couldn't help herself. She couldn't stay in NYC without causing trouble, and her fashion designs and talent suffered for it.

4. Tim Riggins of Friday Night Lights

Such brood, much attractive. Very waste of potential.

Riggins, we'll forgive you for going to jail and dropping out of college...but you'll never rule Dillon like you did when you were a Panther. Texas Forever.

5. Hailey Nichol of The O.C.

Hailey is the classic hot, rich girl that squanders her trust fund and comes home to chill with high schoolers when the well runs dry. Yawn.

6. The Entire Cast of Blue Mountain State

Okay, so the BMS class may have extended their reign to college. But do we really think ANY of these people are going to get hired? God, I hope not.

7. Kate Sanders and Ethan Craft of The Lizzie McGuire Show

Their accomplishments include trolling Lizzie, eating a lot of spaghetti, and collectively sharing about 100 brain cells. Well done, team.

8. Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus of Hannah Montana

Some might disagree, but I really miss the wholesome, pigtailed young star who had some cool friends, this cat sweater, and her family.

9. Abby Morgan from Dawson's Creek

Ok, so it's a little mean to put Abby on this list since she you know, drowned...but Abby's biggest purpose was to create drama, be really mean, and mess around with Jen, and no one really liked her until they were sad she was gone. Poor Abby...

10. Haley Dunphy of Modern Family

Cute boyfriend, popular, always cute "even in her mugshots". Awesome family behind her. Aaaand then she gets to college and gets kicked out for underage drinking and battery. Haaaley, come on.
