CW Characters: Who's Been Nice -- And Who's Been Naughty?

With Christmas just a few days away, we decided to play Santa and decide which CW characters were worthy of piles of gifts... and which ones were more deserving of a lump of coal (lots!). Is there someone we missed? Add your own suggestions in the comments!

Nice:
These CW characters are always trying to do the right thing, and we love them for it.

Dan from Gossip Girl: He's polite, he's charming, and (when he's not letting the "oh, woe! We come from different worlds!" thing get to him) he's a great boyfriend.

Clark from Smallville: Superman can't NOT be nice (unless there's Red Kryptonite involved).

Raja from Aliens in America: Raja embodies all that's right in the world. The boy exudes such sweetness. And yeah, he doesn't celebrate Christmas, but we want to slip him a few gifts anyway.

Chloe from Smallville: Even with her meteor-freak powers, she's still a good girl.

Joshua and Shay from Beauty and the Geek: We loved this misfit pair on BATG – they seemed the most genuinely affectionate and proud of each other. Plus, they're hysterical together!

Ben from Reaper: Sure, Ben's a bit of a ladies' man, but he's the only one of the Reaper trio who seems to have any grasp on morality at all.

Heather from America's Next Top Model: Heather overcame a lot to be on the show, and overcame even more to hang in there with some nasty castmates (we're looking at you, Bianca!) But she kept her poise, for the most part, and didn't succumb to bitterness. We think she's awfully nice.

Naughty:
The most naughty characters on The CW showed no mercy, whether they were reality show hosts, cheaters, or flawed millionaires.

Bela from Supernatural: OK, we get that you had a rough life. The thievery we could overlook, but shooting Sam and siccing Gordon on the boys? Nothing but lumps of coal for you, young lady.

Lex from Smallville: Building an army of meteor-affected supersoldiers tends to be frowned upon in polite society. Unfortunately, Lex already has everything, so a lump of coal in his Christmas stocking isn't going to be much of a deterrent.

Lana from Smallville: This may not be popular, but we think Lana deserves to be on the bad-kids' list. Look, she took Lionel captive, tried to kill Lex, continues to lie to Clark, and is wearing an awful lot of black clothing. We know her motives are pure, but her methods… not so much.

Chuck from Gossip Girl: Chuck just oozes naughtiness -- that's what makes him so much fun to watch.

Bianca from America's Next Top Model: She sabotaged other players, sent Jenah in the wrong direction, and delighted in torturing Heather, Lisa, and anyone else who passed into her field of vision. She didn't win the competition – and she gets no presents from us.

Tyra Banks from America's Next Top Model: Oh, Tyra – we used to like you. But your drama-queen antics, your insistence on breaking down the women on your show, and your obviously rigged model winner this season makes you naughty in our eyes. We hope you make some changes next season!

All the men from The Game: Malik's a player who fired his mom. Jason's on steroids. Derwin is a cheating ass. These men are getting nothing but coal from Santa. Of course, with their NFL-star salaries, they can buy their own Christmas presents.

Nice because they're naughty!
These characters' irresistible naughty streaks keep us interested, even if we wouldn't necessarily trust them.

Dean from Supernatural: OK, so he's a good-time guy, but he's still heroic. Surely all the world-saving he does makes up for his more questionable habits? Besides, it's his naughty side that makes a lot of us love him so much!

Andrew from Life Is Wild: He skips out on chores, almost fails his classes, and nearly gets himself killed mountain climbing, but Andrew's far from rotten to the core. Remember when he covered for Oliver during the cheetah-shooting debacle? And his budding romance with Mbali definitely brings out the best in him. We're rooting for him to get in touch with his sweet side -- as long as he doesn't forget that his wild streak is what makes him so much fun.

The Devil on Reaper: You could never call the Devil nice, per se – but he sure is charming and a lot of fun to hang out with (when he's not torturing your immortal soul.) We can't help but love him, and figure Santa would feel the same way.

Blair Waldorf on Gossip Girl: Our favorite teen vixen does all sorts of things wrong (blackmailing, cheating, and encouraging break-ins -- and that's just for starters) but we wouldn't have it any other way.

Unclassifiable:
This pair of Sams leaves us scratching our heads -- they just don't fit into any category.

Sam from Supernatural: On the Nice side, he saves the world a lot, he's a good brother (usually), he's honest (usually) and kind, and he fights to save people from evil beasties. Unfortunately, he may be the Antichrist, which makes it difficult for us to wholeheartedly endorse him as nice. Plus, he does seem to be killing a lot of people and/or things lately…

Sam from Reaper: He's nice because he saves people from their doom and sends evil souls back to hell. But he's doing all this for the Devil, who is the Anti-Nice. It's enough to make Santa's head explode.

Thanks for adding all the Sn Characters into the mix. True Sam is kind on both list but hey we all love Sammy.

That "Reaper" kid should be clessified as terrible, as in terrible acting on a terrible show.

DEAN! i love it! but sammy needs some too...

nd Nathan Scott...THE most amazing and sweet and loving husband ever (at least so far)!!!! <3

Yeah, I have to totally comment on this. There's no way Sam can be the antichrist. :( He was all I believe in angels in that episode Houses of the Holy!! *Sniffles* Awe, poor Sam. I heart Sam. XD I would give Sammy a present or two...

love the list..although i have to say as i sam girl(supernatural)sam.. i am not sure i like him being unclassifiable but its so true!!
got love him though...

Looks dead on to me, :)

I would have had more fun voting for one instead.
have a MERRY Christmas all!This was a good concept though

Isn't that amusing...both Sams (the REAL Sam - Winchester, and the wanna-be Sam from that show...) end up in the same category.

Hah.

Brooke Davis needs some gifts too (: Shes a STAR!! And so loyal!! i LOVE her!! <3

Sounds like the Yellow Eyed Demon has been bending the CW Source's ear ....and the CW Source is falling for his lines. And sam only killed Demons...well the people that were possessed... well...I' ll paraphrase Bela from BDABR "Who here hasn't killed a few possessed people?" and I'm looking at Dean. Bobby. John. Gordon (not the best example but an example nonetheless.

And although I've only seen a few episodes of Reaper I have to defend that sam as well. Sam did at one point tell the devil he wouldn't work for him. The devil in retaliation tried to kill him and threatened to kill him if he didn't be his Reaper.

Im sure Dean will share his presents with Sam. He BETTER!

Dean would just give Sammy his present so Sam would have one... Poor Sam... didn't ask to be in the running for antichrist...

Well, really, if you give Dean presents and not give Sam presents, you kind of know Sam will get presents anyway, either because Sam'll turn the puppy-dog eyes on Dean who will give Sam some of his presents, or Dean will kick Santa's butt for not being nice to Sammy and steal some presents for Sam anyway.

Maybe a complete My Little Pony collection this year? :)

Yessssssssssss! Sam is unclassifiable! Dean's Nice cuase's he's naughty and Chloe's nice cause, well lets face it she is...excellent list! I agree!

Sam from SUPERNATURAL is not going to be the Anti-Christ. Just, no, no, no, no, NO! HE IS GOOD no question about it!

Where should Lois from Smallville go?? Nice or Naughty or Unclassy um I mean Unclassifiable...

The description of Sam Winchester was amazing! I just don't think Dean will be happy with it, so be prepared to have him hunting you.

And I totally love some naughty Dean!

Awwww Sam needs presents too! You can't give some to Dean without Sam!!!!
