[@galvagames7490]

I mean, considering the fact that he got his own character trope in TVTropes, I think one version of Starscream should have popped up here

[@CrazeeAdam]

Littlefinger is arguably why the entire GoT war happens pretty much. Why the entire premise of the show/book goes on for the most part. Obviously there are other players at work, but he of course orchestrated the most. Was so satisfying for him to get his

[@Awood2207]

That moment to me was so shocking that I was literally telling my brother (who watched it with me) that he was the whole reason for the series of events to happen. I was happy when Joffrey and Ramsay were killed but when Little Finger was revealed for the entire events to happen...i was so happy that I slept so good that night lol. I just hope House of Dragons becomes that good

[@margarethmichelina5146]

And he caused the war just because he can't get over the friendzone from Caitlyn. And also, he made a stupid mistake to send Sansa to the family who killed his childhood crush and her own family! I'm sure Littlefinger in the book is way smarter than thay.

[@CrazeeAdam]

@@Awood2207 yeah lol. I'm really liking House so far. Has a lot of the best parts of GoT in it. Little Finger is just unassuming on the surface. It takes digging to find out what he's actually done. Digging and time. All for his own goals. He's admirable in a way, doing whatever is needed, but he's such a bastard. I think what makes him the worst to me is that he basically has killed more people in ths show without lifting a finger ironically, than most others.

[@stephengrigg5988]

I wouldn't be surprised if he winds up as king whenever the books are finished

[@pendragonxt3674]

Yes. But also Reagar Targaryen was another reason because he absconded with Ned Stark’s sister and that’s what caused Robert’s Rebellion.

[@insecdroid]

I saw this and could only think “If Grant Ward isn’t on this list then I’m gonna riot.” I’m glad that there will be no riot. Not only was his chest caved in but then his corpse was desecrated by an Inhuman Parasite with a God Complex.

How about Nina Myres from 24? At first we think she's one of the good guys, but then she's revealed to be a mole whose treachery knows no bounds, including the murder of Jack Bauer's wife Teri. But in series 3 she finally gets shot dead by Jack.

I was surprised he lived that how long ! Haha

[@margarethmichelina5146]

They made him from the most tricky character in the show to be a creepy pedophile who simping to Sansa just because she is his childhood friend's daughter. He made the man who's his love rival got killed only to get outsmarted by his children. Also, once he's in The North, he's not safe anymore since The North people care to each other and most of them are still loyal to the Starks family unlike the people in King's Landing who are liars and become the spies for Lannisters.

[@HiddenCloudlobo]

You can’t blame Shane for leaving Rick in the hospital tho

[@cmo3195]

Ok but to say Shane left Rick for dead in the hospital, that wasn’t really intentional. Like the army was literally lighting up the whole hospital. However, yeah he did try to kill him lol

[@jerrypeacock2234]

24 didn't even make the list how many times did people stab Jack Bauer in the back only to get crushed in the end. The cold heartless way he took out Nina after she thought she'd get the better agent Bauer proved she didn't know Jack.

[@margarethmichelina5146]

I think A-Train double crossed Starlight in Season 3 by selling Supersonic to be killed by Homelander is also deserved to be in this list. Because he got a karma to get his rival's heart, Blue Hawk after killing him and makes his brother resents him.

[@y0simbah]

Blue hawk also paralysed his brother so I’d say he got enough karma for backstabbing starlight.

[@margarethmichelina5146]

Here's a sharp tongued comment for you, I think you guys should do these lists next, do a list on Top 10 Most UNDERRATED ACTORS! And Top 10 UNDERRATED DRAMA SHOWS! Here's my number ten for the underrated actors list because these guys seriously need a lot more love and appreciation. 10: Bill Paxton. 9: Elijah Wood. 8: Dylan and Cole Sprouse. 7: Josh Keton. 6: Keanu Reeves. 5: Hugh Jackman. 4: Matt Murray. 3: Julianne Nicholson. 2: Tyler Young and 1: JAMES PAXTON! Seriously if everyone knows who Bill Paxton is but not his son James Paxton, I find that to be a backstab and a crime against acting! This man needs more attention and I'm gonna try my best to spread his name around to anyone, because he needs more praise! Now here's my list for underrated drama shows 10: Pose. 9: Scandal. 8: House Of Pyane. 7: Dynasty. 6: Law and Order. 5: Criminal Minds. 4: Code Block. 3: Bones. 2: Breaking Bad. And 1: EYEWITNESS! Seriously I've heard almost nobody talk this amazing show since it aired back in 2016 and that is definitely a serious crime against drama shows and this should be one of the greats! Sure it's only got one season and ten eps but it's still got the potential to be a awesome show everyone should know about, so do these lists WatchMojo! Oh, and here's one more list idea for you...

@Avalie He did absolutely nothign all season except taking part in some cringeworthy, irrelevant "Sansa vs Arya" plot. There was no reason why he should be in Winterfell instead of going home to the Vale again, and the way he was killed was absolutely laughable.

Does Beni from The Mummy count as a backstabber or just as a coward with no loyalty?

[@LittleMissRequiem]

Both. Most of his betrayals in the movie could be chalked up to cowardice to varying degrees, but there was at least one noteworthy exception that was pure backstabbing. In Beni’s conversation with Rick on the riverboat, it’s revealed that Beni had originally wanted to con the Americans into paying him to guide them to Hamunaptra and then leave them to die in the desert, but the Americans, having already planned for such a scenario, only paid Beni half of the money upfront and would only pay him the other half once they were safely back in Cairo.

I respectfully disagree. Littlefinger essentially kicked off the whole plot of Game of Thrones. The death of Jon Arryn, facilitated by Littlefinger, was what made Robert ride north to ask Ned to be hand of the king.

You missed one of the truly great comeuppance moments of television history. On Babylon 5, Lord Refa repeatedly undermines the efforts of Londo Mollari in an effort to ultimately disempower him in every way imaginable, including paying for the murder of Londo's lover, Adira Tyree. Eventually, as Londo comes to realize the price of his association with The Shadows and the spread of their influence among the Centauri elite (including Refa), Londo plays a long game that finally results in him arranging for Refa to lead a group of subjugated Narn into a system of caverns under a false pretense, only to have G'Kar play a recording where he reveals to Refa his full knowledge of his betrayals, as well as revealing to the assembled Narn that Refa was the one responsible for ordering the orbital bombardment of the Narn homeworld. He finishes by offering a reward for Refa's head to the Narn, telling them that what happened to the rest of Refa's body was of no consequence to him. The scene finishes as the hymn "And The Rock Cried Out, No Hiding Place" plays while Refa fruitlessly tries to evade the angered and incentivized Narn through the caverns to meet his eventual demise. An undeniably satisfying moment.
