loveable rogue 

The lovable rogue is a fictional stock character, often from a working-class upbringing, who tends to recklessly defy norms and social conventions but who still evokes empathy from the audience or other characters. The lovable rogue is generally male and is often trying to "beat the system" and better himself, though not by ordinary or widely accepted means. If the protagonist of a story is also a lovable rogue, he is frequently deemed an antihero.

Lovable Rogue 

A fascinating and selfish character you can't quite trust but deep down you know he has potential to be good.

Think of Han solo or Don West

What do you think of Neal Caffrey? Typical lovable Rogue, I'd say

lovable rogue 

A person with no discernable good qualities, someone who causes a lot of trouble in their community with little or no care for the consequences of their actions. Likely to have a below average I.Q. and a poor grasp of the English language.

Often used by parents to describe their deceased children (when talking about them to news reporters) aged usually in their late teens/early twenties, (and more often than not, gang members) because they cannot think of anything positive to say about them.

Person 1: "John was such a lovable rogue, he was taken from us before his time"

Person 2: "Lovable rogue?! He used to steal money from your purse all the time and spend it on weed and booze, ontop of that him and his mates hospitalized a doorman who refused them entry to that nightclub in town just last weekend, how is that loveable?!"

Person 1: "He had a cheeky smile...."

Person 2: "You need to get your head checked..."
