Biggest heel turn in a show/movie?

Shane was a bastard the whole time, he just got worse and worse and worse.

But Vic, yeah they show he's horrible in the pilot, then trick you into liking him and hating Aceveda, and in the long run they're all terrible.
Aceveda was a pos for sure. He got more than what he deserved though. Ugh

The only one who was decent person was Claudette.
 
Dutch had the most punchable face even before he started experimenting with animal abuse.

Dutch was a sexual opportunist, borderline predator even without the cat killing.

Banging grieving victims relatives, a suspects mom, trying to bang a young rookie cop as an older detective...trying to bang Vics ex and Danny...

Yeah that scene was shocking for its time, and on basic cable. Even if you hated him, you couldn't think his character deserved that...

He was a piece of shit though, totally cool with the Strike team being dirty when it served his ends, and then quick to throw them under the bus for political points.
 
I can't think of a heel turn right now but I got CJ from Dawn of the Dead, who went from a cunt to a dude that wants to help everyone.

 
He was on Ted Lasso. If youve watched it, you know. That motherfucker.
That's a great mention. I was so angry!

For anyone who hasn't seen that show, it's fantastic. Go watch it.
 
Jaime Lannister in Game of Thrones.

I saw that differently. I thought he started out as a heel and then turned face. Literally turning against his sister, who was a heel through the whole thing, and helping his brother.

I admit tbat was a good heel turn. It shouldn't of taken me by surprise.......... but it did.
 
It's pretty good when you first see it, but it seems less and less plausible with rewatches.
That's why I never rewatch movies with a plot twist. It ruins the "magic".

If the story is well written, then it doesnt matter, it's perfectly fine to watch again. This movie just doesnt hold up in a logical sense, and its merely ok. But it has entertaining "Scenes" esp anything w Postwaithe and Benicio in it
 
Speaking of plot twists:

Tyler Durden?

Was an asshole sure, but was trying to help the Narrator, then went full terrorist.
 
Jaime Lannister in Game of Thrones.
I think Jamie was mostly true to his nature. He did alot of bad shit but tried to do good things and in the end a slave to his desire for Cersei and he could never be rid of it. I dont think he really "turned" on anyone, other than his cousin who was chained up with him, but that was to get back to Cersei anyway.
