You've got your popular, cooler-than-ice characters in movies and TV - and then you've got the unpopular, awkward characters who just can't seem to catch a break! It's not that the latter is super ugly or undesirable - their oddball and quirky ways just don't resonate as much as the former does. In honor of the new TV show Awkward coming to MTV next Tuesday, July 19th, here are 20 of the most awkward characters on TV and in movies.
Which character on this list do you think is the most awkward?

KeeliBreannaI believe Kirsten Steward as Bella Swan in Twilight should be added to this list because she was painfully akward to watch.Oct 05, 2011from the photo: Allison Reynolds in "The Breakfast Club" -

holdenkid1953This is seriously, like, my all-time favorite movie. The story is great! I didn't think he was an awkward character at all cuz he just fit. And Mr. Hanks is such a good actor--he can act as any character, I bet!Jul 15, 2011from the photo: Forrest in "Forrest Gump"
