If you count where the protagonists don't KNOW they're the bad guys I'd say the first episode of Friday the 13th: The Series because the heroes are unwittingly selling cursed antiques to everyone before they find out later from Jack that's a big no-no.

Many of the items they sold end up killing lots of people in later episodes.

One could say that the Rebels in Star Wars are the bad guys, inciting rebellion against the forces of Law and Order.

I once helped someone set up a setting for a D&D game where every Disney film was real, but the various protagonists were actually the bad guys and the antagonists were actually the good guys.

It's surprising how easy it is to turn a lot of the villains in Disney into the good guys with just a slight shift in perspective. Cinderella and Aladdin essentially use magic to manipulate their way into becoming royals, Peter Pan is essentially a sociopathic child kidnapper, Gaston is a heroic archetype who is trying to kill a literal monster to save the damsel, etc.

John Wick: Retired Hitman.


That'd make him an ex-bad guy. Kinda the same with Fugget About It, although some of them are still running jobs.

Clearly not always a good thing, considering how badly regime changes have gone. tbh, the thing that kinda bugged me with Star Wars is that the third trilogy just focuses on the Empire once again instead of the myriad of factions that might rush in to fill the Empire's void. After all, while the Empire was evil and self-serving, it was also a stabilizing element that acted as a check on other groups.

The outcome of something doesn't change if it's good or bad, it just means you need another rebellion and you might need another one after that, and another, etc.
