Mine are from best to worst:

1. Rumple: I stongly disagree with the OP. Rumple had a great redemption arc in Season 3 that the writers messed up near the end for...something. Watching the next three seasons of everyone in-universe {including rumple himself} treat his sacrifice like it nev er happened was really annoying and stupid, particularly when compounded with a whiny, entitled Regina from Season 4 and hook the easily swayed. Season 7 is...odd actually. But the way Rumple's being written pleases me.

2. Ingrid: This was honestly great and surprising without pushing it too much in our faces. One of Season 4's few bright spots.

3. Zelena: Strange, but could've been worse, I guess.

4. Cora: Why did this happen at all?

5. Ursula: Would've meant more if she actually did something to need redemption from. Or, you know, anything at all.

6. Hook: The second worst on the show, but more tolerable than my last one:

7. Regina: The OP has said much of it for me. While at first tolerable, she has since become {imo}, the worst character on the show, one of the worst characters on TV in general, and is honestly one of the least likable versions of this particular fairy tale character that I can think of.
