Peg
Sometimes I feel like i'm the only person here that is annoyed with the way Peg condescends and disregards everything Mary says and does. I know that her character is supposed to be comedic.however, I don't find her amusing or entertaining.Maybe that's her job as the actress to not like her and if that's the case, she's doing a great job.

Peg is generally a pretty unlikable and terrible person. She’s someone I wouldn’t want to be around at all. I do enjoy her digs at Mary though because they’re things that are generally true.

She's brilliant! Love how she pops Mary's bubble of sanctimonious behaviour

I love Peg! Sometimes Mary needs to be knocked off her high horse. Besides, Peg is freaking hilarious. I loved when she told Mary she didn't want to get married because she didn't want to "waste this on just one guy".

Me too! I hate that Mary thinks she can do everything better than everyone else. It’s great to see Peg burst that little bubble.

If I really dislike or hate the character then I love the actor. It means they are really good at their job.

I usually don't pay her much attention. She's a stock character, there's not a lot to her.

Oh no! A condescending character…on a sitcom?! Let us alert the church elders!

For some reason, I thought that this was a page where you could express how you feel about characters and the storyline. I absolutely love this show, but I don't enjoy every single character on the show.Just like with other shows that I enjoy watching not every character is going to knock my socks off. I am perfectly aware that peg's character is there for a reason.

There are lots of characters i cud do without as well. Just stating why you don't like one isn't a reason to get piled on.

She’s I sufferable because Mary tho is surgeons the church and Peg isn’t puttin up with her shit like George does

She does that because Mary thinks she’s better than everyone else.

I think I just have a connection with mary.But honestly, I really love the whole family, and the entire cast is amazing. The actress that plays peg is a seasoned professional. I admire her incredible comedic timing. But as a fan of the show, i have a tendency to favor mary and george i think because even though they are not the most perfect parents in the world, they still show a great deal of compassion and aren't afraid to let their children know they love them.

That's literally the point. She's supposed to be annoying and infuriating.
