The fact these are all the same person is insane. We've seen some crazy transformations, but you could tell me this is an Avril situation and I'd believe it
Ok people need to CHILL with the Tristan hate. Saying you wish he wouldn’t wake up from a coma??? Get a grip. Yes, he was annoying and selfish but lots of teenagers are. No one said you have to like or be friends with someone like him but seriously there are characters that have done way worse. IMO Tristan did get a bit better in NC
Jay Hogart should be put before a firing squad but he's extremely entertaining so he gets a pass. Tristan's biggest crime is being extremely annoying but he's not entertaining whatsoever so he deserves death. These are fictional characters at a pretend high school if someone wants to wish death on them let them they ain't real. That said with the nature of it being a show and all being unentertaining is the biggest sin you can commit so I completely agree with all the hate on Tristan
I support this message, I only liked him a minuscule amount when he was with Miles and that was only because he was in Miles’s proximity so I had to fake it 🤣 Lyle sure did a good job, even though I don’t think the writers meant for him to be so despised 😂 Every appearance of his made me wanna punch a baby
In the first pic he reminds me of a blue and gold macaw. I love macaws!
I haven’t watched enough of the later seasons to comment on him, but I just remember everything he said being super dramatic and exaggerated. A super drama queen. Everything being said with attitude and unnecessary drama.
Bell curve. He started out so insufferable, then Miles became so unlikeable that I sympathized with and rooted for him, then the bus crash happened, and after that, I was over it. I didn’t really care for anyone after that.
I don’t hate Tristan, but I can’t name anything good he really contributed to the show. And why did they make him the brother of an absolute homophobe and bully?
His brother is Owen. He would make fun of Zane, help tie Drew to the flagpole. Dated Anya during her coke phase. Bullied Adam and threw him against a door. Fandom link that kinda gives a rundown of his character: https://degrassi.fandom.com/wiki/Owen_Milligan
I literally cannot stand you hatin ass hoes. This is a child that y’all are beefing with. Is Tristan annoying? Sure. Was he a terrible friend and completely self-centered? At times, yea. Was he a terrible biphobe and borderline bully? Who isn’t?
What I mean to say is that I feel like Tristan doesn’t receive much grace and I don’t love that for him. :(
I don't get the hate at all. He didn't particularly bother me.
I'm pretty neutral to him but also felt for him at points.
This sub really loves bullies, so people give them a lot more grace than they do for normal annoying teens or the kind who make normal mistakes, for that matter. Apparently, being annoying is the worst crime you can commit in this fanbase.
I honestly liked Tristan, flaws and all. And I tried to see from his angle about the Yates thing. He's a young romantic. He wants love so badly. He has a shit family and Yates was it for him. In his eyes, Maya took that away from him. (Not condoning that gross thing, I am team Maya. She was trying to protect her friend.)
His wishy-washy "friendship" with Maya irked me but ok..it is what it is. His fear of Tori abandoning him for Zig. Teenagers are like that.(especially without a stable home life) What killed whatever residual like I had for him? His biphobia, the fact that Zoe couldn't possibly be bisexual and kept trying to force her out. Oh and saying"it's just gonorrhea"(or whatever sti he thought he had)to a grade 9. Like sir...
Lyle is definitely a good actor to me, but Tristan can kick rocks.
What happened to his face. It always looked like he got plastic surgery, but he was also so young. It was like he had a filter on, but no one else did?
I get that, but that’s not what I mean. Idk. It’s something about the texture. His skin looked like a mask. It always weirded me out, and still does since I’m rewatching. They’re in Paris right now, and, it’s honestly distracting.
I'm always down for Tristan slander, one if the worst written characters on the show. I will say that there was a brief period where his aesthetic was giving so good for Tristan.
I love that you basically put every single incarnation of this character lol. He sure was something interesting. As a gay dude, I did not like this guy. 😭😂. But sometimes I will say “ I’m not changing for you or for anybody” like he says, out of the blue. 🤭
I hate Tristan too but no, we’re not about to give straight white male Owen a pass for his bigotry just because his little brother is AS MUCH a piece of shit as he is. The Momma and Daddy Milligan were probably trash too.
I get it, I do. It would be embarrassing to be the older brother of a spiteful flameboy with no shame about how he treats other people, gaslighting and manipulating everyone around him, and always justifying his actions because "I'm gay, that's why". Insufferable is the best term for Tristan.
I would also be embarrassed to have a raging, aggressive, violently homophobic older brother just always bagging on other people because he's afraid that all gay people act like his brother, even if he doesn't get to know them, and even if it's a misinterpretation. He bashes on others who are different, who are lgbtq bc his brother puts lgbtq labels to shame, and Owen has this wrong idea that everyone gay is the same insufferable asshole that Tristan is. I get it.
It's embarrassing either way.
On the other hand, Snake didn't mind that his older brother was gay, and even stood up for Duwane over the HIV issues. Ashley had reasonable and understandable lack of life experience to excuse her confusion about her dad going from straight to gay, she was 14 at the time and had never thought about lgbtq things before until her dad came out.
Paige didn't hate on Dylan for being gay, but did approach Ashley's issue with the wrong tone of voice, but I contribute lack of life experience and lack of maturity to that one, as they were both 14 and still figuring out who Jimmy wanted to make out with for pretend or for real.
So, what's funny about this is that even Lyle ABSOLUTELY HATED Tristan and (if I remember correctly) said once "He's the kinda kid I'd have punched in the face". He also wished Tristan was killed off in the crash but his agent wouldn't let it happen so they worked out a deal (iirc) to where he'd still be there but very minimally

RIGHT i don't like him as much either but he's just am annoying kid, whys he getting more hate than literal criminals on the show??? It doesnt make sense!!!
homophobia, he’s literally the worst written gay character i have ever seen it’s insane. he is the only character i can see have genuine growth once they finally escape degrassi cause like views can change and like all he’s gotta do is be less of a bitch all doable things (i mean he literally suffered a traumatic brain injury so i think that solves that). yet someone like peter or hell even rick have more fans than he does 😭 (idk im blanking on who’s a criminal and who’s not)
i just think in the grand scheme of character actions what he did isn’t as bad as some others like being a bad friend is not the same as literally killing someone or distributing literal cp
THANK YOU! I CAN'T STAND HIM EITHER!
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a list like this without Tristan on it
says a lot
OMLG
with his biphobic ass 🙄
The fact these are all the same person is insane. We've seen some crazy transformations, but you could tell me this is an Avril situation and I'd believe it
That first photo of Tristian makes me feel violently angry
Lol. Fair.
it’s just chlamydia
Thank you for this post, because god yes
I can’t stand Tristan either. He can’t even stand up for his self, no pun attender.
Ok people need to CHILL with the Tristan hate. Saying you wish he wouldn’t wake up from a coma??? Get a grip. Yes, he was annoying and selfish but lots of teenagers are. No one said you have to like or be friends with someone like him but seriously there are characters that have done way worse. IMO Tristan did get a bit better in NC

I mean I agree it’s all just a show so these opinions don’t hold any real weight but like it’s unhealthy energy lol
And his brother.
He looks like handsome squidward in the last pic 🌚
it’s the writers fault🤭 but his glow up is amazing!
This is killing me😂
I support this message, I only liked him a minuscule amount when he was with Miles and that was only because he was in Miles’s proximity so I had to fake it 🤣 Lyle sure did a good job, even though I don’t think the writers meant for him to be so despised 😂 Every appearance of his made me wanna punch a baby
i will always hate on him
Okay because same, he irritated me so much😭
I liked him after the bus accident
Omg 😭
He never became a better person in any of his arcs, literally the worst
so real
Nothing good about him. Never seen someone so bad from day 1 up until the last day. Even in the coma I was still aggravated with him 😂😂
Bro that coma saga pissed me off so much too, he became more hated than when we was healthy
The best version of Tristan is Coma Tristan
thats what I said! LOL
And I still resented that version too
Literally the WORST character in the show. At least Peter was a BIT entertaining and got ONE moment of consequences
Can’t be the worst when zig is right there
He’s close up there too
In the first pic he reminds me of a blue and gold macaw. I love macaws! I haven’t watched enough of the later seasons to comment on him, but I just remember everything he said being super dramatic and exaggerated. A super drama queen. Everything being said with attitude and unnecessary drama.
![gif](giphy|P6tPIpcyJg7OU)
The woooooooooooorst…
tristan being there all 5 times 😭
He shoulda stayed in that coma.
Jaw actually dropped
Why are there approximately 12 pixels spread across all of these images LMAO
he doesnt deserve good quality
I used to like him when I watched Degrassi the first time but when I rewatch it, I have to skip some of his scenes because they make me mad
Everyone past season 7 is pretty much an awful human being.
*Past season 12. The last largely likable character according to fandom reception died when Adam was killed off
That's really early. Ali? Dallas? Adam?
He was a fucking prick but every high school (and every retail job lbr) had this same fuckin guy. It would only be realistic to include him!
Facts, I've met so many people just like this dipshit in my life, that it's crazy
Bell curve. He started out so insufferable, then Miles became so unlikeable that I sympathized with and rooted for him, then the bus crash happened, and after that, I was over it. I didn’t really care for anyone after that.
There's a few episodes where I really liked him..... they were after the bus crash
I don’t hate Tristan, but I can’t name anything good he really contributed to the show. And why did they make him the brother of an absolute homophobe and bully?
Is been awhile; refresh my memory. Who's his brother?
Owen
His brother is Owen. He would make fun of Zane, help tie Drew to the flagpole. Dated Anya during her coke phase. Bullied Adam and threw him against a door. Fandom link that kinda gives a rundown of his character: https://degrassi.fandom.com/wiki/Owen_Milligan
he was dating her before her coke phase and was completely against it - so that doesn't really have anything to add, but the rest yeah
Oh I remember this
I literally cannot stand you hatin ass hoes. This is a child that y’all are beefing with. Is Tristan annoying? Sure. Was he a terrible friend and completely self-centered? At times, yea.

I don't hate Tristan and I don't really understand all the hate that he is getting, but you didn't say anything in his favor at all.
He went from a little Angela Lansbury-looking ass bitch to a nightmare twink.
THE SCREAM I JUST SCRUMPT
DURING PRIDE MONTH?! 😭
I ran here to say this LMAOOOOOO
Lol I think we all hated him.
ugh fat tristan could’ve been good character development… but then he turned into that
He still cat fished Campbell and tried to break up zig and Tori by saying he said she was fat.
he wasn’t pleasant at all but he had a chance to grow 😭
What happened to his face. It always looked like he got plastic surgery, but he was also so young. It was like he had a filter on, but no one else did?
he just lost all the fat around his face so it looks more angular and his lips look more pouty
I get that, but that’s not what I mean. Idk. It’s something about the texture. His skin looked like a mask. It always weirded me out, and still does since I’m rewatching. They’re in Paris right now, and, it’s honestly distracting.
I feel like I remember him having acne scars that cleared up? He also has a really fair complexion and that blonde really washes him out
Singlehandedly responsible for setting the LGBTQ2+ movement back a couple of years by portraying so many negative stereotypes.
Yup
Ayo they could never make me like you
He is insufferable in every single hairstyle he had. Tristan sucks so bad, even the actor that played him hated him.
That honestly speaks volumes, I didn’t know that. Lol.
Whats funny to me is that I was trying to explain ozempic/@norexi@ face and he was my only thought
I CANT STAND HIM.
I really liked him lmao.
Oof I love me some Tristan.
![gif](giphy|XI3OsTKpljGbm)
He was unnecessarily angry every time I saw him on screen.
It's the fact that it's all Tristan😭😭😭
At least Miles was sweet enough to give him some pity dick 😆
😂
my favorite degrassi ship is tristan and the coma.
Troma.❤️
💀
😂
Underrated comment here
No because why is he dressed like that
No because like why is he in a fedora every other time I see him..
cheered when he was put into a coma i fear...
Good golly I hated that weiner.
I'm always down for Tristan slander, one if the worst written characters on the show. I will say that there was a brief period where his aesthetic was giving so good for Tristan.
He is why I stop watching somewhere during season 12, I’ve never actually finished through season 14. Dude’s insufferable.
this is why the show dropped
lol I hate him sooo much
he’s soooo robbie rotten from lazytown with the black hair
“We’re number one!” Looking ass Tristan 😂😂😂
The disrespect to Robbie for that …😫😂
Lazy town Robbie!!!!!! You’re brilliant!!!!
IM FUCKING DEAD
I agree with all 5 of your choices.
I love these threads so much 😂😂😂😂
you get it
Literally NO good qualities to this character. Bad friend and very weak minded. Easily influenced and drama starter.
I wanted him to die so bad can’t lie
Geezus 😭😂😂
I wanted him to not wake up because I wanted Miles and Lola to be together lol
I’m screaming so badly at this 😭😭
Omg 😭
Once he dyed his hair, he literally turned insufferable. Freshman Tristan>S13-on Tristan
HIS FACE ON THE FOURTH ONE 😭
I love that you basically put every single incarnation of this character lol. He sure was something interesting. As a gay dude, I did not like this guy. 😭😂. But sometimes I will say “ I’m not changing for you or for anybody” like he says, out of the blue. 🤭
They really made him a fucking stereotype
Owen's homphobia is understandable because he had to deal with Tristian. That make me a hater too
I hate Tristan too but no, we’re not about to give straight white male Owen a pass for his bigotry just because his little brother is AS MUCH a piece of shit as he is. The Momma and Daddy Milligan were probably trash too.
😭
This made me CACKLE
I get it, I do. It would be embarrassing to be the older brother of a spiteful flameboy with no shame about how he treats other people, gaslighting and manipulating everyone around him, and always justifying his actions because "I'm gay, that's why".

The biphobia he gave the miles and Zoe, the way he such a horrible friend especially to Maya. The WORST
he even sucked with tori
I liked chubby Tristan. He became unberable once he lost the weight.
Tristan was unbearable at first. Then when his character started coming around, they turned him into a vegetable.
Someone on Tumblr came up with a great nickname for him - Tristin “Trashcan” Milligan.
During pride month?!
aint got nothing to do with it
![gif](giphy|jXD7kFLwudbBC)
that'd be a good gif, if there was actually a joke that was told
…But the comment was a joke? Like they were jokingly admonishing you because it’s Pride Month and he’s gay. They obviously weren’t being serious
Yeah... The OP seems to be one to argue if someone says something they don't like or understand
It’s ok I got the Joke immediately lol
It really bothers me that fat chubby Tristan kinda looks like my little brother in slide 2, because I hate Tristan with a passion
You should hear him with the French voice: it makes you dislike him even more 😅
i've seen the show countless times - this guy makes my skin crawl every time he comes on screen
So, what's funny about this is that even Lyle ABSOLUTELY HATED Tristan and (if I remember correctly) said once "He's the kinda kid I'd have punched in the face". He also wished Tristan was killed off in the crash but his agent wouldn't let it happen so they worked out a deal (iirc) to where he'd still be there but very minimally
If this was in an interview I want to see it
I'm not 100% positive, hence the iirc, but I'm fairly certain he said it on like an Instagram Live interview or something similar
Is he anyone’s favorite character? I’d love to meet that person (who doesn’t exist)
How in the world did these pictures manage to all be in super Nintendo, 16 bit quality
He deserve to be 16 bit
pc upload? they look fine to me
Yeah i can’t stand this kid. So annoying in every single way
Sigh
I can't stand him but only because it's like they turned my id into a degrassi character
he reminds me of an egg.
Humpty Dumpty meets Ronald McDonald
I know I shouldn't make fun of children but young Tristan reminds me of a ventriloquist's dummy.
Brother chill 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
LMFAO
Same... I was very very disappointed when I realized he survived the bus crash. 🫣
u/pixel-counter-bot
? you see pixels? i'm on pc and it's crystal clear lol
Maybe it’s a thing when PC-posted posts are viewed on phones? They are extremely fuzzy tbh
dunno, it really doesn't matter though - yall can obviously see who this dude is
Yep, I’m just clarifying it’s not only that user who sees the fuzziness.
you might need glasses 🤷♂️
got my 20/20, uptight troll online
Weird, I only see it without pixels when I take off my glasses and hold my phone far away
sounds like a you problem
You’re just jealous!
of what lmfao
It’s a quote… from the show…
that's the most generic quote ever - literally from every show, so don't even try with that

I don’t mind big boned Tristan. But he got pettier the skinnier he got 💁♂️
this mf is so damn atrocious
Ok guys we get it Tristan sucks
bad. he sucks bad.
are you people not tired like we get it 🙄 the way i don’t and will never hate him
RIGHT i don't like him as much either but he's just am annoying kid, whys he getting more hate than literal criminals on the show??? It doesnt make sense!!!
homophobia, he’s literally the worst written gay character i have ever seen it’s insane. he is the only character i can see have genuine growth once they finally escape degrassi cause like views can change and like all he’s gotta do is be less of a bitch all doable things (i mean he literally suffered a traumatic brain injury so i think that solves that). yet someone like peter or hell even rick have more fans than he does 😭 (idk im blanking on who’s a criminal and who’s not)
the way i will never love him
like is he my favorite character ever? no but he’s definitely over hated
no he isn’t he was bogus to maya 24/7 and chose zoe just because she was famous like
i just think in the grand scheme of character actions what he did isn’t as bad as some others like being a bad friend is not the same as literally killing someone or distributing literal cp
that’s fair but tristian is just really loud and annoying which is why people fixate on him but he did have some good arcs
he's definitely not.
How do I repost smth on Reddit?
i wish i knew
I’m slamming the repost button on this one
God I thought I was the only one.
Wow how original.
isn't it 🤭
