Lol wat, Gus is likeable and at his worst he’s still compelling and sympathetic given his backstory and loss of his lover/friend. However you could take away that backstory and he’d still be a respectable villain since he’s pragmatic and at heart just a ruthless business man. Yes his mental and emotional torture of Hector was personal however with Walt-our main anchor- it was strictly business because Walt and Jesse just kept pushing it. Every act towards them had logic behind it, even the threat of killing Walt’s family wasn’t made out of malice, but still logical.

Joffrey on the other hand is just a repulsive character. A psychopathic, sadistic spoiled brat on a power-trip who enjoys others suffering (even his own family) for the sake of it.

Both are great villains though, Gus for his layered character, Joffrey because of the hateful emotional response he elicits from us.
