People who are universally liked.

I'm afraid no individual can be universally liked. If all your audience and critics love you (less than likely), then someone closer to you probably doesn't like you. The inverse can be said as well.
The closest you could come to being universally liked, is to be universally unknown by removing yourself from human contact, or at least limit it. Although such a withdrawn personality is unlikely to be liked by most people, especially the stranger on the street who just tried to be friendly or expected you to be more helpful.

I hate Christian Bale as Batman, now I don't hate him nor the movies but I think he was terrible as Batman with that horrible costume and that ridiculous voice and I know plenty of people who also think he sucks as Batman so that is definitely a no.Senaro said:

Pauley Perrette from NCIS has a really high Q score, which means most people who know who she is like her and very few people hate her. Apparently she has the highest for any actress.
Oh, Connery is a unrepentant bastard wife beater.gmaverick019 said:
My nomination would be Bruce Springsteen. The only people who would not like the Boss would be conservatives who actually listened to his lyrics instead of just the chorus. Thankfully there aren't many of them.
I have a racist friend. So I have heard hate on Will Smith, which is sad because I love that guy. And didn't people say they found Sean's Scottish accent among the top 5 worst scottish accents? I assume someone hates him for that to have happened.gmaverick019 said:
I'd have to agree with a vast number here, but I'll put gold stars next to
Stephen Fry
Hugh Laurie
Tom Baker
Brian Blessed
Bruce Campbell
Michael Palin (tbh, all the Pythons)
Terry Pratchett
and I'll put forward
Douglas Adams
Both of the two Ronnies
Dara O Briain (most of the Mock the Week lot have some haters, but Dara seems to be Teflon)
Mike Patton - of Faith No More and others, and voice of a few games incl Portal (and my avatar)
Nicholas Parsons - I wouldn't say many people are a huge fan, but he's effortlessly charming and a true gentleman of another era.
David Mitchell - For somehow being middle class and not hated, purely thru his wit
Charlie Brooker - for hating everything so much and so well, that any hate thrown back at him gets deflected.
Robert Llewellyn - Kryten from Red Dwarf and well known for just being, well, nice. Try 'Carpool' on iTunes, it's him just talking to midly famous or interesting people, while he gives them a lift somewhere.
Barry Cryer - He's about 75 and been in the comedy world for about 60 of them, yet he's never held himself back, and is still highly respected and loved by the current crop, and still does topical gags, never deciding that his time has passed.
I was thinking of people like Bill Hicks, but then remembered he was hated by most of his own country for being anti war and anti religion, and only really found a good audience when he came to the UK.
