We made a bracket to figure out the biggest TV villain
It’s Villain Week here at Mashable. In honor of the release of Venom, we’re celebrating all our favorite evildoers from film and TV all week long. Spooky, scary!
Everyone loves a good villain. We here at Mashable have spent hours poring over the notorious accomplishments of Hollywood's biggest baddies; we ranked enemies of the Avengers, we rocked out with Disney cartoons, and now we're turning our attention to the small screen to find the most powerful (fictional) villain on TV.
A couple parameters: Because there is #toomuchTV, we kept our list to shows still airing new episodes (even the shocking antagonist of Sharp Objects didn't qualify). Apart from that, we stayed flexible; The Kid from Castle Rock may or may not be the devil, but ask a true This Is Us fan about Miguel and they might say the same!
Some have superpowers, some have political power, some have criminal syndicates, and some are just murderous psychos. It's a fight to the death if we ever saw one.
Join us and pick a winner.
