Hate: For me, it would have to be the Pancakes, only because their last name is so stupid. I always delete them immediately upon starting a new save. Also, Penny Pizzazz is pretty annoying to have as a neighbor.
Love: Darling Walsh. I remember the first time I saw her in the gym. My sim talked to her for like 2 hours before I realized she was a girl. I took her through to elder-hood, made her tall with the help of a height slider mod, and gave her a super cute girlfriend/life partner and a successful career as an artist.

I like Moira Fyres - she is kind, unspectacular and likes the outdoors. Seems like someone I would love to know if she was real. She is misplaced with Dominic in my humble opinion.
I say 'like' and 'dislike', because love and hate are too strong for me to feel about game characters. Hope that's okay

Time enjoyed is never time wasted
Summer Holiday - Your average nice girl, reasonably good looking, likes to chat with other sims and a bad job cleaning dishes. She comes off as being very down to earth compared to others in the area.
Dislike:
Don Lothario - He comes off looking like he is only using these Caliente women to survive with an overstated importance towards them, he doesn't want marry or stay in a job long but is more than willing to get lots of women pregnant and his only good skill is in fitness. He is a bad example of responsibility and how to set an example as a parent when one of these dalliances catches up to him and he is forced to look after his own unwanted son/daughter one day.
Agreed.
The Goths, an interesting family that has been around since the first game. Out of the few premades I play with, the Goths have always been my favourites (the others being the Landgraabs, the vampires and Travis Scott).
Eliza Pancakes, for the very superficial reason that she reminds me of an ex-workmate I couldn't stand - hairstyle, glasses, personality and everything. Also Moira Fyres; I'm probably doing her injustice here because I don't actually know anything about her, just that she tends to show up everywhere my sims go with that awful hairstyle and blouse.
Something wicked this way comes!
I don't use MCCC.
The only premade I dislike is Bella Goth. She always tries to seduce my female Sims' husbands or boyfriends, even if she's a good friend with them. She's absolutely the worst friend and a horrible wife. I feel sorry for Mortimer, whom I like very much.
On my "wizard Alexander" save I've planned to make Mortimer divorce Bella and find a new love in his life.
Even if I don't like Bella I do think she'd be fun to play as a serial romantic character who has a goal to woohoo with every male in the game.
But I side-tracked with this and digress. Don's person is for another thread and I already gave my likes and dislikes

Also fond of the Behrs, the Free Spirits, Miko Ojo, Salim Benali, Erwin Pries, and Grace Anansi, but the four above are definitely my favourites.
Least favourites: Nancy Landgraab. Fight me, Nancy!! Malcolm is horrible too. (Geoffrey is okay but he's on thin ice.) Also, Thorne Bailey, at least in part due to a fantastic Simstagram account I read.
@QueenofMyshuno aww, I love what you did with Darling!
I don’t hate any premade, but there are some I find boring like Eliza Pancakes, the Munch household, Ulrike Faust, Hugo Villareal, Travis Scott, Liberty Lee, Mitchell Kalani and so on.
I don't like Don, in fact he makes me cringe whenever I see him. He's probably worse than Vlad, which is saying a lot since everyone finds him a pest for breaking into poor innocent sims' homes and drinking their blood at night...
Yes! Maxis gallery sims totally count. I forgot to mention it.
And speaking if that, I love Lava Man. Mostly for superficial reasons because he’s cute, haha.

I also like Miko and Akira from City Living, I also liked Venessa, Dustin and Kayla from get Famous. They are fun sims to play with.
When it comes to sims I dislike...probably Max Villareal from Get Together, and I am not a huge fan of the Delgato family from Cats and Dogs either. I just find them frustrating to play with because of that large house of theirs.
Bad but Good? Judith Ward, why do I like her when she's as materialistic and shallow as can be? She's really funny and classy. A lovable trainwreck. Bjorn Bjergsen, he really livened up the game when I played him. Joaquin isn't totally bad but he is a person who has successfully skated through life.
I actually think I'll have a lot of fun playing the Roswells soon in a bad but entertaining way. I see a lot of drama there. The wife is really religious and they cannot have children. Ted is bored and not very nice. Cue more trouble in StrangerVille. He's already been rejected by my Heroine of StrangerVille who wisely picked a much nicer guy in that small town. She was too smart and logical for Ted.
Good? Paolo Rocca, he hasn't been that lucky so far but he's one of the most likeable pre-mades. The Villareals. I actually really like Hugo; he's down-to-earth despite being about the wealthiest sim of them all. Eva tried to marry him but he chose someone who loves him for who he is. I think I like Duane Talla and I like the direction that I've taken the royal household in IL. They are the leaders of the tribe.
Most of the women in my game are ones that I've created or we're a few generations in at this point. I've created a cousin of the Goths who inherited the house named Gunilla Goth. I'll see where she will go but she's great.
I never played with the earlier pre-mades. Most of the sims in my rotation are not pre-mades. There are a few that I'm playing that are perfectly fine but I wouldn't say stand out. At this point, things are shifting to children of pre-mades except in packs I recently added like IL, GF and StrangerVille.
I usually keep around Caleb Vatore. He always stops by my YA Vampire females for “visits” heehee. I love seeing him zip around the neighborhood. I also as a must, keep Vlad. He’s one of my faves. He’s so ugly, he’s cute. And believe it or not, Don Lothario. I too once couldn’t stand him and deleted him always until I forgot to delete him and he showed up at one of my YA Females house. They actually became very good friends in fact best friends. My girl at the time had the Serial Romantic Aspiration so maybe it was that they had a lot in common. He never flirted with her. I had her give him her residence key. When he visited he always would talk to her first for a good while before heading to her computer. He makes a much better friend than boyfriend. Lol. And right now he’s my Main sims dad. He’s a terrific dad. He visits her almost every day. They have the Daddy Dearest/Daddy’s little girl relationship. It’s awesome.
Loving the last part of your post.
That sounds horrible. I’m so glad none of the premades look like any of my ex-workmates/ex-nemeses. I don’t want a constant reminder of an unpleasant person.

Like: Paolo Rocca, Darling Walsh, Penny Pizzazz (They are always my sims best friends)
Love to hate: Thorne Baily (I had him leave his wife and marry an Influencer with a bad reputation, they were a wonderfully hated couple, lol)
I love the Fyres, but their house doesn't fit them at all so I always replace it with something a bit more modern but also with lots of garden-based stuff. In my favorite save Siobhan right away exposes corporate corruption, gets fired, has a life crisis but then goes on to become a famous programmer in the city (of course she ditches Sergio). Now I can't imagine playing them without that starting point. It's the only household where I'm equally interested in all members, instead of really just playing one sim while the others become a hassle.
For example I like playing Darling in Karaoke Legends, and even Miko (though less), but Akira bores me endlessly. There aren't any premades I dislike really, but there's plenty that I can't stay interested in playing -- Catarina Lynx and PartiHaus are the others that come to mind.
I've just started using lilsimsie's save and it's opened a whole new "premade" world up! It seems like not many people here use it, but would love a discussion on those premades sometime.
Like
Don Lothario - He's a great friend for my Bro Sims, he's adorable in his rakish ways, handsome in my opinion and in one of my legacies, a good Father. Even if he isn't a part of the household, he still comes around often to visit his children and play with them. I've always liked Don, even back in TS2 days. He's always been good for some fun drama.
Bella Goth - I don't know what kind of wife she would be, can't bring myself to lure her away from Mortimer. They're iconic to me and I could never break them up. However, she's always been a fun, loyal friend to any of my Sims she's befriended. Plus she's just gorgeous!
Cassandra Goth - Like her Mother, she's just gorgeous once she's given a make-over. Just hairstyle and a little make-up though, she doesn't need anything else. She might even give Mom a run for her money in the most beautiful Sim category. She's been a good wife and Mother to my Sim. I like her spunky, confident attitude too despite having the gloomy trait.
Bjorn Bjergsen - I don't know what it is about this Sim, just something that I like. He's very handsome in a rugged sort of way for one thing and he makes me laugh seeing him out and about rummaging through the trash, jogging, playing a Knight or tending a community garden. He just seems to be everywhere. Although I don't see him much with Clara, I would never dream of breaking them up. I just can't do it. Clara seems like a very nice Sim too, very sophisticated with that french twist hairdo and long dress.
Paolo Rocco - Another good friend for my Bro Sims and good husband/partner material. He's just a sweetheart and seems very easy going. Once I give him a bit of a make-over (that chin!) he's very handsome too.
Salim Benali - In the top three of THE most handsome Sims ever in my opinion! Great, great Father and good husband too. Not so much as a casual friend though. Don't give him a key to your apartment. He'll be over ALL the time to leave books & glasses everywhere, use your computer and play video games. I really like him a lot otherwise, IF he joins the family. Then I can control him! muwahaha
Caleb Vatore - He's just a fun, moody vampire. As others have said, I get a kick out of seeing him zipping around everywhere. He's been a good friend/spouse to my vampires and humans. Plus he's just pretty to look at too. lol
Brant & Brent Hecking - Really like this couple. They're usually very good friends with any of my Sims living in Brindleton Bay and I see Brant always hanging around the gym, sometimes Brent joins him. They're usually friends with my Bro/Athletic Sims as a result, but not always just those types of Sims.
Candy Behr - She is just such a cutie patootie! She's always cheerful, perky and fun when interacting with my Sims. She's a good/loyal friend, but elusive as spouse/partner material. One of my Sims is bound and determined to win her over though. Wish him luck!
Moira Fyres - I like her for the same reasons as @Nindigo
Makoa Kealoha, Akira Kibo, Jesminder Bheeda, Penny Pizzaz, Summer Holiday, Morgan Fyres, Duane Talla and Nalani Mahi'ai - I haven't interacted with these Sims much, but I like them mostly for superficial reasons. They're all just beautiful Sims.
All three ROM Sages, especially Morgyn Ember - Before ROM I thought Salim, Bella, Cassie, Morgan Fyres or Zoe were the most beautiful Sims ever, but Morgyn takes the prize now. They are just so ethereal in beauty. I love to just watch them making magic, interacting with my Sims, sitting reading, dueling, cloud/stargazing, just anything. They are a really, really good friend to my spellcasters too, never mean, always looks so fierce and confident, but so, so gentle and soft as well. Simeon is a sweetheart too, a good friend and seems to be in love with one of my spellcasters.
I'm sure there are others that I like, I just can't think of any more at the moment. The above are the ones I like the most though.
Dislike
Raj and Geeta Rosoya - Both of these Sims are mean, invasive and their relationship creeps me out. Deleted.
The entire Landgraab Family - Nancy strikes me as an entitled, snobby rich witch with a b. She never gets along with any of my Sims. Geoffrey is a stalker always trying to flirt and get with my Sims. I don't blame him with Nancy for a wife, but I don't like him. Malcolm acts just like Nancy, except he's mean as well. I know a lot of Simmers like Johnny Zest, I really don't. I don't know why really. I do admire how he's left the family though. Good for him! I just don't pursue him for a friend or spouse material. He's always just...there.
Alika & Mele Kahananui - Snobby stalker Sims.
The Pancakes - Eliza is a snobby stalker Sim and Bob being constantly gloomy is depressing. I gave them both makeovers and keep them in my custom template save though because they seem iconic to TS4. Meh...
Neutral
Every other premade - All the rest are just okay, they go about their lives without any or very little interaction with my Sims or I've deleted them from my custom template save and forgot they even existed.
Happy Simming!
I wouldn't say that I hate any of the premades but I kinda dislike all the obnoxious celebrities that like to cause a fuss and grab the attention of my sims when visiting community lots. Incite cheers is the most awful cringe worthy interaction in the whole game.
Five Families/Sims I like:
Five Families/Sims I dislike:
Player: *instructs sim to prepare meal* "Then eat something, you little goofball!"
Sim: *starts cooking meal*
-5 seconds later-
Sim: *Stops cooking meal* "I'm so hungry!"
Player: *head hits desk*
Like: I have had fun incorporating Wolfgang Munch in one save. And I kind of feel some sympathy for Pancake-guy, so he usually gets to stay.
