Liu Kang - I don't necessarily hate Liu, I just have a VERY low tolerance of him, since he's the closest thing to a canon Gary-Stu there is in the game.

Hehehe, a Gary-Liu.
I second the Liu Kang mention. He's simply too generic for me to really care about what he does or what happens to him. Dying was the best thing to happen to the character, and when he returned as a spirit and a zombie, he was actually half-interesting - as opposed to the dull, personality-lacking Liu Kang who always won Mortal Kombat prior to Deadly Alliance.
I can't say I'm a fan of Darrius. He comes across as rather poorly developed in terms of personality and storyline. I get what he was looking to accomplish, but aside from that, he was just really bland. Dairou, Havik, and Hotaru were infinitely more interesting than Darrius.
Chameleon and Meat were both poor additions to Armageddon in that they had no apparent motivations and their storylines were underdeveloped (You could say that Meat's was scarcely "fleshed out".)
And I have a strong dislike of Steroid Blaze from Armageddon, because fighting him in arcade mode is very irritating what with his cheap moves and uncanny ability to launch into a combo when he shouldn't be able to. Cheap bastard.

First off, hello there! First post on this site
Next, the unliked list:
Jax - Always felt like he was just the "token black guy" character, abilities coming from brute force (like ripping off arms), military background, and that whole alpha-male attitude. Most of this was confirmed for me in Deadly Alliance's alt. costume. Even though he's a so-so character, I thought Kai was more original, or even Darrius (even though his alt. is too stereotypical in that bad way).
Stryker - A cop? Please! His soul would have been taken with the rest as nothing stands out about him. I don't know why Tobias thought he was going to be so popular. Even his look sucked. I didn't mind the changes they tried for Armageddon, but it was too little, too late, too much negative history already in pMlace.
Motaro - Having two character model bosses already been made (Goro and Kintaro, which should have been more varied in design), you'd think they would have tried a more original idea, not just changing his species. Again, interesting Armageddon adaptations, but in this case, changing his species once again isn't really a step in the right direction.
Jarek - Why didn't they just put Kano in MK4? If you're going to replace a character, DON'T just give his moves to a newly designed character. I could almost say the same thing about Reiko, but his character seemed to have his own personality, and Noob hadn't been developed enough yet, so I can let it slide (but I do raise an eyebrow to it).
Shinnok - Why would you have a character who can only copy moves when you had already designed a character who can morph? And not only that, now he's a GOD instead of a sorcerer. Definitely a disappointment for a final boss.
Bo' Rai Cho - Yes, let's all laugh at the FAT guy. I wouldn't have minded a larger character, but not only do they make him the new comic relief (to replace good ol' JC, who seems to be taking things more seriously), but he's the guy who "taught Liu Kang the way to defeat Shang Tsung". What a load of crap! I would have made more allowances for him if the whole MK universe didn't think he was an "all-powerful Master". Pfft!
Kenshi - A blind swordsman? I think somebody was smoking something at the design meetings, and then stated passing it around. The idea can "get by" in Hong Kong cinema (although not very well imo), but as an MK character? No! And of course, they make him a power character! As cheesy as MK can be at times, that was too far!
Mavado & Hsu Hao - Making a Red Dragon clan to go with the Black may have been an interesting idea, but THIS is the best they could come up with? And they were around FIRST (in the overall storyline)? Mavado wasn't very interesting to play as, and had crappy moves, and Hsu Hao was just designed as a "dark mirror" for Jax. Plus, he's a member of the Chinese army? (Those evil communists! Boring!) Probably the least interesting characters in DA.
Drahmin & Moloch - More evil creature-like characters. Don't they seem to be out of a bad movie? (See Kenshi, but without the subtext.) And what's with the mask? Didn't necessarily mind Drahmin's playability, but his design was so crappy that it took away any interest, and Moloch was just another monster. Just because MK1 had a Goro, doesn't mean every subsequent tournament has to have a monster boss. AARRRGH!
Kobra & Kira - I agree! This is the best Kabal could find? I like Kira's look but she suffers from Jarek-itis. And Kobra design sucked, but his moves weren't too bad. They should have made Kira with Kobra's powers. I could have lived with that.
Darrius, Dairou, and Hotaru - This whole Orderealm thing just seems so far removed from MK that they should have designed a different game around it. None of the characters look very interesting (to me) and most of their moves are lame, even though they're powerful. The only thing I did like was Darrius's specials, but they should have given those to some other character like...
Shujinko & Taven - You know, they had a good idea doing adventure games with these characters, but why would you create new ones, when many fans would love to see stories of their old favorites? And then you make your "hero" character a mimic? They should have just done the story of little Chameleon growing up. They improved this with Taven, but he felt so recycled that I almost felt like I was playing as Kobra. (Daegon isn't much better, but at least his moves are kind of ...weird.)
Onaga & Boss Blaze - MORE monsters! I miss the Shang Tsung - type of villain; also a human, but interesting to watch and wanting to play as (like in DA or Noob-Smoke). And finally...
Mokap & Meat - I know they're supposed to be joke characters. So why couldn't they stay that way instead of being fully-developed new characters? They should have only showed up as glitches or uncompleted designs, maybe in Konquest missions. And once again, I don't mind their fighting moves, but poor design overtakes likability, so they should have given moves to someone else. (Some of Meat's powers and his weapons should have been given to Havik, and Mokap's gone to Shujinko or Taven.
OK! Wow! This post was longer than I thought! I guess I had more to say than expected! Sorry about that! Feel free to make comments and what you agree/disagree with.

I don't really HATE anyone, but there are some I could do without.
Drahmin - After dishing out all that money on him in DA, I would've spent it on other things.
Daegon - I think this is self explanatory (sp?)
Taven - The only thing I like about Taven is his name.
Mokap - Joke character, I get it. Not funny to us though.
Jarek and Kira - You shouldn't duplicate a character as good as Kano...twice and with a twist of Sonya for the latter.
Darrius, Dairou, Kobra, and Hotaru - Just not a big fan of the some of the n00bs in Deception. I do like Ashrah and Shujinko though.
Reiko - Pretty bland IMO. There is only ONE Shao Kahn.
Tanya - Annoying traitor
I think that's about it.

About Me
When some wild-eyed, eight-foot-tall maniac grabs your neck, taps the back of your favorite head up against the barroom wall, and he looks you crooked in the eye and he asks you if ya paid your dues, you just stare that big sucker right back in the eye, and you remember what ol' Jack Burton always says at a time like that: "Have ya paid your dues, Jack?" "Yes sir, the check is in the mail."

Jack Burton can't openly say he "hates" any of the MK characters, but he does dislike some of them for various reasons...
Hotaru: Concept was alright, but his style just didn't suit my playing style...his combos were too short for me to feel comfortable with. I prefer being able to execute four-hit combos at a minimum. A few of his attacks were cool, but his combos just sucked!
Blaze and Mokap: Both felt generic in MKDA; Blaze improved somewhat in MKA, but Mokap still sucks in my opinion.
Taven and Daegon: Again, okay concepts for these two, but I thought they looked generic...made me start to think they were fresh out of ideas for characters.
Liu Kang: A favorite of mine, aside from Raiden and Kung Lao to name a few. Why is he on this list? First off, the length of his hair in MK3 and MKSM just bothered me. Secondly, I don't think he's based off of Bruce Lee enough, in terms of appearance and character. His facial designs in most of the games except for MKD just didn't satisfy me. Of course, he isn't Lee, but still... Third, I thought a flaw or two with his actual character would make him more interesting. If you examine Bruce Lee in some of his movies, he does have character flaws. In most of his movies, to start off with, he's totally out of his element. He's almost always the outsider in a foreign country, and that causes some clashes here and there. As for actual character flaws, in "The Chinese Connection" (aka "Fists of Fury" in Hong Kong), he gets angry very easily. In "Fists of Fury" (aka "The Big Boss" in HK), he is invited to dinner by the boss of the place he is working at and is treated to wine. He gets himself drunk by accident because he doesn't know how to drink properly; he chugs cup after cup because they keep refilling it, and he keeps drinking and drinking out of respect. Things of that nature would actually make Kang more interesting in my opinion.
Kano: Although around since the first MK, I just never really got into his character at all. Trevor Goddard's portrayal of him in the first movie probably saved him from going extinct in the franchise, as the whole Australian thing took off shortly afterward. I don't openly hate the background of his character, but poor character designs in some of the games made him unappealing to me. Merely my opinion...
Darrius: Same reasons as ThePredator151. See his post.
Jax: Same reasons as ThePredator151
Johnny Cage: BRING BACK THE NUT PUNCH!!! I know a lot are upset over his use as a comic relief, but I've grown accustomed to it. Think of him as the naive American still learning about all the Asian mysticism. That might quell that somewhat.
Rain: YOU DO KNOW WHY HE WAS INVENTED, DON'T YOU? Little known fact: Ed Boon is a major Prince fan, hence his PURPLE outfits and the name RAIN. Put two and two together, and you understand why Rain made the list. You have weird taste, Ed!
Unmasked Sub-Zero: I thought unmasking him would spell certain doom for his character...some may disagree.
Chameleon/Khameleon: Not much backstory...felt like unnecessary additions to me.
Motaro in MKA: THEY TOOK HIS LEGS!!! In my opinion, they took the legs his balls were on...they should have just excluded him from the game. I wouldn't have complained had I known they were going to do THAT.
I'm sure I could think of more, but I'll leave it at that for now. Jack Burton will amend this in the future.
