I wonder if Will Farrell dislike is a generational thing? I grew up on Will Farrell in SNL and A Night at the Roxbury and loved every second of it.
On the other hand, Bill Murray was before my time, and I haven't liked anything he's done.

I liked Farrell on SNL. Once he started doing movies, his likability, for me, drops off rapidly after about 5 minutes at a time. I still think he can be good in the right supporting roles, but he's too over-the-top for a leading man.

Maya Randolph.
I found her so irritating to watch in The Good Place and The Lego Movie 2. It's stuck ever since.
Basically all of them. At this point I feel like all celebrities are vapid shitty people. I don't want to participate in para social relationships.

Yeah, Will Ferrell. I liked him in Zoolander, though.
Absolutely Will Ferrel!
Not 100% of the time but there are several. The one that comes to mind is Jeff Goldblum. My wife feels the same. We never like him but many of the movies we like well enough we just wish he was not in them. So like wicked and the original jurassic park are like that. Curiously I liked him in the fly but that seems to be a one off. Literally the moment I see his face and he speaks I want to punch him.
Val Kilmer was one. Tom Cruise is another.
The Rock and Jack Black are also getting really old really fast.

Jenna Ortega. she's always playing the same character archetype in the exact same way (quirky, #notlikeothergirls, fairly mainstreem left-ish political views)

Will Forte. His voice and "quirky" style I find just irritating and not at all amusing.
