Watched Supernatural until the end. Out of all the deaths on the series, Bobby's was the biggest. Crowley disappearing into another dimension and never returning was another huge character loss. 😢
Before Rosanne got the ax and her own show became The Conners, the same happened to Valarie Harper. Salary dispute and poof! The Hogan Family. Turning the frequently absent pilot father into a widower after only 2 seasons was cruel.
Charlie Sheen's and Melissa's death I get, that was wrong. But here's the thing people forget to understand. If you can't come up with any reason for a character(s) to be in the show anymore then you either write them out or kill them off. Yes, don't kill them off for stupid reasons but also sometimes we gotta except that we can't have everything we want. People keep forgetting that major people die as well as minor and bad people. Same as our life. I learned that in January when someone close to me died.
I quickly thought of that one too. Salt in the wound is that they didn't make it work narratively, or even really explain what actually happened, making it seem somewhat pointless
I think Warrick from CSI, after his death, they started adding all these new characters and while I still watched the show afterwards it just wasn't the same.
Hilariously, even though Paige was technically longer in the show than Prue, I've always felt of her as the "replacement" part. It's not to say that she didn't bring something interesting to the table, if only because it completely changed the dynamics with Piper and Phoebe, and their respective "roles" as sisters.
SPOILER ALERT…………… Ziva didn’t die. She survived. Also there’s supposed to be a miniseries (not a full season) show with Tony and Ziva. Don’t know if it’s going to air on CBS or not. I think it’s only going to stream on Paramount+.
Right! It makes it seem as though he might not have ever TRULY loved the mother if he'd been wanting Robin the whole time, at least that's my opinion..
Once Upon a Time - killing off Baelfire/Neal. The whole reason Rumplestilskin went through years of putting together the everything needed to create a curse that would send him (and everyone else in the Enchanted Forest) to the real world was to reunite with his son & repair their relationship. But a trip to Neverland to save Henry, Neal's son from his great-grandfather who then followed them, resulted in Rumple's death & then Baelfire being cursed trying to bring his father back & in order to save Baelfire, Rumple joined them together, but once separated, Baelfire would die. Another would be the weird decision that the only way for everyone to return to the real world because of the Wicked Witch, was for Charming to sacrifice his heart for the curse, with Snow deciding to split her own heart to save Charming. They just made so many bad steps with the show, (like pairing Emma with a guy who treated her like a trophy, threatened to kill her family, flirted with her mom in front of her soon after they met, among many other things (some I saw, some I only read about)) that I quit watching at the end of season 3.
Yep. Not only did they start introducing new characters season after season (making it seem like they were trying to get us attached to another character like Mark, but it was never going to happen), but they also kept toying with Carters character arch and just flat out added so much crap to his life it was getting unbelievable
i agree! After the original cast was gone it didn't feel the same even when Noah Wylie (Carter) came back up every once in a while. But i loved the finale other than the last scene
I cried so hard when Sweets died because he had become my favorite character. One other death that should be included is Logan from Veronica Mars. The backlash from that resulted in the show getting cancelled for the final time. Nearly the entire fandom turned their backs on the show's creator & Kristen Bell for thinking so highly of killing off Logan. The overall treatment of Jason Dohring having to do the media tour alone to promote the show that he was killed off from just enraged the fans further.
If Supernatural should have ended at season 5 why did it get another 10? Maybe because people were watching it? I do agree that I missed Bobby but I still liked the show
Same! S7 was actually a good season with the Leviathan, I just felt that they could have done more with them. Same with Demon!Dean, Amara and Abaddon. For me when the British MoL came in is when it started getting iffy and noticeable in terms of the quality in the story writing. Bobby's death was hard to accept, but it was, to me, going to happen sooner or later (and then stuck around as a ghost). Charlie and Kevin's death I'll never forgive them for and deserved better.
But there was at least one highlight left, when that utterly annoying KOOOOOOOOOOOOORL finally bit the dust! Man I cheered so loud, would have given the Zombie a reward for it.
What makes Glen's death worse is that they made it seem like he died mid Season. Suddenly came up with a lame excuse a few episodes later that shows how he got out of it only to kill him off in the first episode of the following season
They actually gave him another fakeout death inbetween the dumpster and his actual death. They have a scene of him being swarmed in Alexandria before being saved, it got less notice because it wasn't a cliffhanger.
Carl’s death is waaaaaaay worse than Glenn’s. Didn’t happen in the source material and the actor just relocated to make filming easier and had no intention or idea his character was dying. Glenn’s actor wanted Glenn’s story to be faithful to the source material.
Bobby and Laurel deaths were so shocking and still got me to this day.Others I remember that ruined the show were Robin Hood from OUAT and Tara from Buffy the Vampire Slayers
Marshall killing off Lily in his mind so he won't feel guilty about fantasising about other women is far less funny when the writers later did the actual thing to Tracy. Even worse, it was likely intended to be foreshadowing.
Agreed! Season 4 doesn’t exist to me, can’t believe that’s how they turned around and treated the character and the fans. Killed the fan base in an instant
It might have been traumatic, but Glenn's death was necessary. It's how Negan was introduced in the comics. Granted, he did kill Abraham earlier that episode. However, they had already given Abraham's comic book death to Denise, so he was on borrowed time anyway. Killing both Glenn and Abraham was both unexpected and source accurate (people who have read the comics first would have been expecting Glenn, and been surprised by Abraham). Now, having Carl kill himself later in the show pissed me off. He stuck around much longer in the comics. They had to give some of his scenes in the comics to Henry and Judith in order to incorporate them into the show. But killing him off was a dumb move.
@@Thundarr100I stopped watching when Carl killed himself. After surviving so much, he gets taken out by an off screen zombie scratch?!?!? Terrible idea, never watched another episode again.
@@Thundarr100 It was just not the violent aspect of the scene, it was also because before that , people where fooled by a the facke death of Glenn in season 6 when he was in fact hiding under a dumbster trash. Then that season end with a cliffhanger as they didn't know who Negan kill and then after Abraham , Glenn die anyway. As for Carl's death, it was indeed beyond stupidity and not even Henry or Judith could fulled that void which is even more sad. Judith is a great character but she doesn't really have her own story development, she seems to be just there to replace Carl and unlike him, her role seems secondary until the final in season 11.
Having grown up with the Arrowverse, Laura's death was a good pick for this list. It didn't stop me from watching it (been a while though) it definitely hurt. Though an honourable mention would be when they killed off Robin Hood at the end of Once Upon A Time season 5. I was really hooked onto his beautiful relationship with Regina, especially since they had good chemistry and they both brought out the good in each other (mainly him for her), so when he suddenly died I could barely get into season 6 before just giving up.
Laurel's death really didn't help, because in Flash's second to last episode they would introduce her doppelgänger: Black Siren. Who would NOT stay on the show long, as she would escape, and once again join Arrow (as a Villain). Then get an ark, and become a hero, again, so WHY did they even kill her?
the thing about the mother in HIMYM is that they decided to kill her off way back when the show was first started, because they wanted to keep the kids age the same throughout every flashback.
Yes but they reedited the ending to not kill her off but still decided to go with their original ending instead. They should have gone with the alternate ending. Robin and Ted had evolved, and the character of Tracy being so loved, the original ending didn't make sense anymore. I think it would have had the show ended earlier.
Okay, no offense for Glenn fans, I loved the guy, too. But his death? It was gonna happen anyway. Sure, the quality of the show slowly went down once Negan came on, but it wasn’t because of Negan himself or Glenn getting killed. It was the depressing writing that was taking place during Season 7. Hell, if anything, Negan himself was the best part of the Savior War seasons. However, if you wanna talk about the death that totally messed with the show? Hands down Carl's, no question. He was not ever supposed to die. Ever! Like the comics ending as well as what Negan said, that kid was the future. The only reason why he was killed was because Scott Gimple, the show runner at the time, had somewhat falling out with Chandler Riggs over minor BS. And because of that, it also led to Andrew Lincoln wanting out of the show, hence Rick's sudden departure a season later. And because of that, the whole storyline for the last few seasons really derailed compared to the source material. So if you wanna thank anyone? Thank Scott Gimple
Almost ten years later, and I'm still salty over Lexa getting killed off in "The 100." I know that Alycia Debnam Carey wanted to leave, but they could have easily picked a better reason.
Wait, Chef left in season 10, but South Park has had 26 seasons? So South Park has had more episodes without Chef then with him? You're going to have run through the logic of how his character leaving the show hurt the show?
There is ALWAYS someone that read the comic that will say Glenn's death 'happens in the comic'. The difference here is comic book Glenn dies issue 100. TV show Glenn dies in Season 7 we the audience got to know that Glenn.
Sweets death from Bones is still so upsetting that even the clip you had to include makes me mad. He was the glue that held that show together for me. Also, the death of Tine, The Mother on How I Met Your Mother is what made the single worst series finale I've ever seen and that show felt more like a long con the a sitcom since they decided on that ending in SEASON TWO! End it there and be done!
Imo killing Carl was worse than Glen on TWD, cuz Glen was always meant to die , even if fans never wanted it to happen. Carl was never meant to die, and they killed him anyway, if Glen's death was a sign that the show was going downhill, Carl's death confirmed it
I missed the Bones 10th season premier and did not see Sweets die. I heard about it the next day at work. I have never seen another episode of the show. In my world Sweets is still alive and well, mediating the arguments between Booth and Brennan. Take that Hollywood.
When Glenn died in The Walking Dead it was hard to watch the rest of the series. And then they made other decisions that I didn't agree with and then I really stopped watching. I understand btw that it was comic accurate.
I’m probably the biggest Walden Schmidt defender I know. That character deserved better treatment because he’s had his own fair share of great episodes! But yeah, Two and a Half Men wasn’t the exact same show since.
Charlie Harper - Two and a half men after Charlie Sheen was fired that show was done for. & Ashton Kutcher replacing Charlie Sheen actually made the show Worse.
So showing up late, being drunk and stoned on set, and being abusive and disruptive on set should be allowed then, because Sheen did all these things. Sick of all the Charlie Sheen enablers. Jon Cryer says that he never wants to work with Charlie Sheen again, as he is "unprofessional" and he applauded Sheen being sacked.
@@SharkWhosFondOfBondirrelevant. It was a colossal failure on the shows part to bring Negan out, put him in the crosshairs and nobody shoots him? They kept him alive to continue the story, but it’s the kind of stupid writing that turns people off.
Not a tv series, but my biggest peeve in books or anime series is when the strongest and interesting characters die. My best example is an anime series "Fairy Tail", Laxus is a very strong character who will end you in 5 seconds yet he gets taken out at the very beginning of every major battle and you don't see him again for another 100 chapters, yet the weakest has one fight early on and is done for but somehow has enough stamina to fight 3 more powerful enemies, on deaths door again and does a victory pose at the end.
Jonathan Kent, Smallville. I get they wanted Clark to be more on his own, but the show lost that sense of "family". Even though Clark was an adult, he still could've used some fatherly advice.
I was so angry at Lost when they killed Juliet off at the end of S5 and then the showrunners did that to Sun & Jin, the two most popular and loved characters of the show. No one cared anymore about Jack or Kate stories tbh. I didn't like Lost last season at all.
When I rewatched it with my wife (who’d never seen it) the first episode when they were fighting got me so emotional thinking about what would happen, I ended up spoiling it for her but I couldn’t keep it together for some reason “NOTHING! NOTHING IS WRONG!” Haha . I was literally fine until they were having their little spat and suddenly just the whole story of them hit my brain all at once recalling every plot point to the end and she wouldn’t continue watching until I told her (the funny part was that she thought I was getting emotional because it was reminding me of a prior real life relationship I had so to also ease that I had to tell her but I kept warning her it would spoil the show but she was adamant I told her since she thought I was thinking of an ex) “alright, this is going to sound really stupid but … “
@@shadowdragonlord2295 He was found dead next to a treadmill machine, Scientology encouraged physical activity to purify his body. This goes against all doctors recommendations after a stroke.
Right from the first episode, the premise of How I Met Your Mother was obviously about the titular Mother's death, and what came before. The bit that ruined it was that Ted was still hung up on Robin.
I hate that they killed off Laurel She was supposed to be with Oliver in the comics The show wanna do Olicity is fine, but they didn't have to kill off Laurel to secure it And it's not like it was the casting issue Because Katie Cassidy came right back as the Black Siren
I stopped watching The Good Doctor after season 3's finale (if you know, you know). The character's death was pointless and I am still angry about it. Also, unpopular opinion: Mark Sloane and Lexie Grey's deaths hurt way more than Derek Shepard's.
The thing that makes me stop watching shows more than anything is not the deaths of certain characters, it's when there is a baby added to the mix. The best way to ruin a show is to play the pregnancy card. Shows are never the same after this, usually for the worse.
Anything past 2018. Seth didnt write for Family Guy. He doesnt have creative control like he used to on the show and mainly just voices now. He stepped back to concentrate on the Orville
If Walking Dead hadn’t been on this list I would have been floored. The show honestly should have ended when Andrew Lincoln left. It never felt right after.
That's when I stopped watching. I stuck through it for all the other deaths but, to ME, Rick was the anchor. He was there from the beginning and tied everything together. Once he was gone... that was it for me. I heard they brought him back recently, but it's too late for me to get interested in it again.
I’m a massive fan of BONES. I can not describe how much sweets dying affected the show. It is when I gave up on the show. Season 10 sucked. Bones was already in decline after season 6. His death, Zach’s return, and Hodgins becoming a parabolic was the death Nell for the series. If not killing it
Dana from The L Word. The show completely spiraled after that season three knife to the chest Also, Tara from True Blood. I mean the show was already starting to get bad, but her death was bullshit.
Killing off Logan on Veronica Mars deserves to be on this list. I guess it was conceived by showrunner Rob Thomas as a means to open up the show for more potential seasons on Hulu as Veronica isn’t supposed to be happy or something. Instead it just pissed everyone off and killed off any desire to watch any possible new episodes.
Oh, Poussay from OITNB was just... wow. Crazy Eyes was part of the reason she died because a cop was trying to revive her, but CE kept hitting the cop and keeping him from doing his job.
Definitely agree with Rita being number one. Her death so devastated and infuriated me because of how avoidable it was that I stopped watching the show right then and there
Honestly I'm gonna say you missed Buffy with the death of Tara! It brought in the phrase of killing your gays! Plus they ruined a really good story arc with Willow going evil by only limiting it to one episode!
Lance From Bones shocked me especially when Bones at Lance's autopsy said this isn't Lance .... it's just a body... that's when I stopped watching Bones but as I was watching 2013's Sleepy Hollow guess who shows up to help Ichabod and Abby..... Boothe and Bones 😮 WTF....
I’m sorry WHAT? Y’all really said Supernatural should have ended at season 5?? Yes, we were all super bummed about Bobby’s death but no, fans did not want the show to end at season 5. I mean, when it finally ended at season 15, most fans have already been asking when it might come back. They also STILL do fan conventions that are packed. Lol, maybe research what the fandom thinks before you make such claims. I’ve never heard of even one actual fan saying any of this. 😂
There were THREE notable murders by the Saviors that should have been avenged. Glenn, Abraham and Denice. Ranked in that order, maybe. The losses might have been worth it, if we'd gotten our REVENGE. But instead, we got to see Rick become Negan's b!tch. The pussification of Rick is what ruined the Walking Dead. I won't waste my time watching a show with a poossyboy as the "hero".
The original Roseanne series was going to end anyways with or without Dan, because most of the cast wanted to move on, even the network ABC wanted to end the series to green light Disney produced shows. Also Lost went downhill in season three with killing Eko and Charlie, that’s what really hurt the show! And Brian’s death in Family Guy doesn’t count, that’s was jumping the shark, the show was already unwatchable by that point!
Some of these sound like they are straight up from hellers. Also I remember Isaac Hayes left because South Park made fun of Scientology and Hayes is a Scientologist. It’s why Chefs’ death was done in such an over the top and final way.
@mangagirl9132 that's not true at all. He legit went to a collage closer to where filming took place. They fired him because they didn't want to pay him as an adult.
@@calzone3843thats not true either. Chandler Riggs' father was a hostile negotiator... and believed that since in the comics Carl becomes the main character that he was deemed unkillable... and thus played hardball trying to get more money. This has been long since documented and proven to be true.
Glenn's death was to push Maggie into wanting to start the war and the actors all tried to think of ways to spare him but it just wouldn't work for the story. Carl's death hurt the show way more since that literally was the last straw for Andrew Lincoln and a LOT of fans quit after that, way more than when Glenn died. Carl's demise literally changed the show forever in many ways and he was so integral to the story that they had a couple of characters try to fill his comic role like Henry and Judith, but the show really fell flat since he was too important.
Not saying there wasn't much after his death, but Matthew Crawley from Downton Abbey was a hard one for me. After his death it just seemed like they were pulling anything to bring drama into the show. Like Anna getting SAed, and going to prison after the man that did it dies. That storyline was so unnecessary.
As for Lost, killing Jin and Sun was part of the plan for years. The producers never intended them to reach the end alive. Jack, Kate, Sawyer and Hurley were meant to be the last ones standing.
Jim Beaver wanted to leave Supernatural so they had to kill him off. And yes they did bring him back in flashbacks and finally as a reoccurring character again.
Glad you mentioned Carl's death for TWD too. Glenn was my favorite, and when they killed him off, showrunners explained they couldn't spare Glenn his comic book fate, as they'd done for other characters, because it would stray too far from the source material. Then they killed Carl, and that excuse became even more bullshit. They were trying to force a "Red Wedding" moment, and that's it.

Lance Sweets and Vincent Nigel-Murray, Matt Keenan will always be the best painfull deaths like every.
Honorable mention : Kenny from Killing Eve , basically killed off the only character with a good heart on the show
The Downfall of Killing Eve started when they killed Kenny
I just finished the final season and am still not sure who had him killed.
"They killed Kenny".
Don't worry, Kenny will be back next episode, just like in "South Park".
I quickly thought of that one too. Salt in the wound is that they didn't make it work narratively, or even really explain what actually happened, making it seem somewhat pointless
I think Warrick from CSI, after his death, they started adding all these new characters and while I still watched the show afterwards it just wasn't the same.
He deserved a happy ending
I was going to write that if no one else did...it changed the show drastically. Thank You
his death really pissed me off, I really liked him.
@@ShiftnWolf72 He was about to become a better person, then the creepy boss shot him... pretty graphic too. Very sad
Sadly their hand was forced. The actor was causing issues.
There is no Two and a half men without Charlie Sheen. 💯🎉
Sheen is an idiot and his diva like behaviour on set killed the show.
Sheen deserved to get fired.
Prue's death in Charmed and Ziva Davide in NCIS both hit hard.
Prue 😢 The show never recovered that dynamic the original power of three had

Ziva didn't die.
The death of the mother isn’t even the worst part of the finale.
It’s the return to Robin.
Right! It makes it seem as though he might not have ever TRULY loved the mother if he'd been wanting Robin the whole time, at least that's my opinion..

Who would NOT stay on the show long, as she would escape, and once again join Arrow (as a Villain). Then get an ark, and become a hero, again, so WHY did they even kill her?
They brought her back to the shows near ending.
@@typicaltabbycat5383 nooo she came back mid season 5.
Sweets death really got me.
Thank you for putting Rita's death first, for me Dexter was over in that chapter
Agreed. I watched season 5 because I was just invested enough to see the aftermath of Rita's death, but after that I was done.
I agree 💯. I was so broken hearted that she died I lost interest in the show.
yep i stopped watching.
Really? I couldn't care less, I hated Rita as a character 😂
the thing about the mother in HIMYM is that they decided to kill her off way back when the show was first started, because they wanted to keep the kids age the same throughout every flashback.
Yes but they reedited the ending to not kill her off but still decided to go with their original ending instead. They should have gone with the alternate ending. Robin and Ted had evolved, and the character of Tracy being so loved, the original ending didn't make sense anymore. I think it would have had the show ended earlier.
@@tmoore4075Tracy being loved? Lol by the time the fans came to know Tracy all the episodes were already filmed smh
Henry Blake, M*A*S*H. The first time it was done in a comedy series.
Okay, no offense for Glenn fans, I loved the guy, too. But his death? It was gonna happen anyway. Sure, the quality of the show slowly went down once Negan came on, but it wasn’t because of Negan himself or Glenn getting killed. It was the depressing writing that was taking place during Season 7. Hell, if anything, Negan himself was the best part of the Savior War seasons.
However, if you wanna talk about the death that totally messed with the show? Hands down Carl's, no question.
He was not ever supposed to die. Ever! Like the comics ending as well as what Negan said, that kid was the future. The only reason why he was killed was because Scott Gimple, the show runner at the time, had somewhat falling out with Chandler Riggs over minor BS. And because of that, it also led to Andrew Lincoln wanting out of the show, hence Rick's sudden departure a season later. And because of that, the whole storyline for the last few seasons really derailed compared to the source material.
So if you wanna thank anyone? Thank Scott Gimple
Fr I would say it was Carl death that did TWD in
I 100 percent agree. Carl's death in Season 8 really hurt the show and it's fans.
It was because Rick was too poossay to get justice on Negan for Glenn, Abraham and Denice. Nobody wants a poossyboy for a "hero".
100% I gave up when carl died. I was a fan of Glenn but knew he was going to die because I've read the comic
Almost ten years later, and I'm still salty over Lexa getting killed off in "The 100." I know that Alycia Debnam Carey wanted to leave, but they could have easily picked a better reason.
Pffft..Lexa 🙄. Roan literally carried the entire show on his back. The moment he died i stopped watching, can't care less what happened after that.
Yes I’m the same, still can’t watch that episode
I feel the same, only about Finn
Wait, Chef left in season 10, but South Park has had 26 seasons? So South Park has had more episodes without Chef then with him? You're going to have run through the logic of how his character leaving the show hurt the show?
Killing Glenn was something that stunned fans nationwide. The show was never able to recover
Didn't stun fans who have read the comic. I knew it was going to happen
@@calzone3843 I was waiting to see Ezekiel's and Rosita's heads on a spike during the Whisperers arc but they changed it all 😂
There is ALWAYS someone that read the comic that will say Glenn's death 'happens in the comic'. The difference here is comic book Glenn dies issue 100. TV show Glenn dies in Season 7 we the audience got to know that Glenn.
But don’t forget Carl’s death
@@calzone3843That’s not what angered fans. They were angry because they thought Glenn would live only to be unfairly tricked
Sweets death from Bones is still so upsetting that even the clip you had to include makes me mad. He was the glue that held that show together for me. Also, the death of Tine, The Mother on How I Met Your Mother is what made the single worst series finale I've ever seen and that show felt more like a long con the a sitcom since they decided on that ending in SEASON TWO! End it there and be done!
Imo killing Carl was worse than Glen on TWD, cuz Glen was always meant to die , even if fans never wanted it to happen. Carl was never meant to die, and they killed him anyway, if Glen's death was a sign that the show was going downhill, Carl's death confirmed it
I missed the Bones 10th season premier and did not see Sweets die. I heard about it the next day at work. I have never seen another episode of the show. In my world Sweets is still alive and well, mediating the arguments between Booth and Brennan. Take that Hollywood.
Torchwood died with Ianto
When Glenn died in The Walking Dead it was hard to watch the rest of the series. And then they made other decisions that I didn't agree with and then I really stopped watching. I understand btw that it was comic accurate.
I’m probably the biggest Walden Schmidt defender I know. That character deserved better treatment because he’s had his own fair share of great episodes! But yeah, Two and a Half Men wasn’t the exact same show since.
Eddie on Stranger Things?!
Charlie Harper - Two and a half men after Charlie Sheen was fired that show was done for. & Ashton Kutcher replacing Charlie Sheen actually made the show Worse.
So showing up late, being drunk and stoned on set, and being abusive and disruptive on set should be allowed then, because Sheen did all these things.
Sick of all the Charlie Sheen enablers.
Jon Cryer says that he never wants to work with Charlie Sheen again, as he is "unprofessional" and he applauded Sheen being sacked.
I stopped watching the Walking Dead when Rick had a chance to shoot Negan, and didnt
You clearly didn't watch enough to see Negan redeem himself
@@SharkWhosFondOfBondirrelevant. It was a colossal failure on the shows part to bring Negan out, put him in the crosshairs and nobody shoots him? They kept him alive to continue the story, but it’s the kind of stupid writing that turns people off.
@@jayscott867 Doesn't matter
I would have had Alison from the teen wolf TV show I was devastated when I found out in season 3 she died
🔥 name, duelist.
Not a tv series, but my biggest peeve in books or anime series is when the strongest and interesting characters die. My best example is an anime series "Fairy Tail", Laxus is a very strong character who will end you in 5 seconds yet he gets taken out at the very beginning of every major battle and you don't see him again for another 100 chapters, yet the weakest has one fight early on and is done for but somehow has enough stamina to fight 3 more powerful enemies, on deaths door again and does a victory pose at the end.
Ducky from NCIS that hurt the most why
What's even Sadder with the Actor who Played Ducky Actually Passed away.
... I didn't even know that they killed ducky.. I will always miss Dr Mallard
True but the actor who played him died in real life
@@krog44yes I know all that k=just some people will ask that question
I know he did that's what makes it sadder.
Jonathan Kent, Smallville. I get they wanted Clark to be more on his own, but the show lost that sense of "family". Even though Clark was an adult, he still could've used some fatherly advice.
Okay, so why is Brian Griffin even on this? He literally came back to life 2 episodes later.
His death still affected the show cause after the Life Of Brian episode a lot of people stopped watching Family Guy after that
The Dallas TV series never recovered when Bobby was killed off (even despite bringing him a year later).
Great example. Larry Hagman as JR lost
a worthwhile opponent in Patrick Duffy as Bobby. Same thing happened to Falcon Crest when Chase was killed off.
The death of Lance Sweats on Bones had one good thing and one bad thing: it led to the rise of Jon Boyd, but Sweats left a baby behind
I was so angry at Lost when they killed Juliet off at the end of S5 and then the showrunners did that to Sun & Jin, the two most popular and loved characters of the show. No one cared anymore about Jack or Kate stories tbh. I didn't like Lost last season at all.
When I rewatched it with my wife (who’d never seen it) the first episode when they were fighting got me so emotional thinking about what would happen, I ended up spoiling it for her but I couldn’t keep it together for some reason “NOTHING! NOTHING IS WRONG!” Haha . I was literally fine until they were having their little spat and suddenly just the whole story of them hit my brain all at once recalling every plot point to the end and she wouldn’t continue watching until I told her (the funny part was that she thought I was getting emotional because it was reminding me of a prior real life relationship I had so to also ease that I had to tell her but I kept warning her it would spoil the show but she was adamant I told her since she thought I was thinking of an ex) “alright, this is going to sound really stupid but … “
Will from The Good Wife and Matthew from Downton Abbey needed to be on there.
I’m really glad Brian was brought back to life in Family Guy. He’s one of the only reasons why I still watch the show
I did stop watching the walking dead after Glen was killed off and only recently started watching it again I wanna finish the TWD and Start on FTWD
No mention of Jimmy Smits and later Sharon Lawrence on NYPD Blue?
Didn't the VA for Chef leave because of Scientology?
Yes.
Indeed, and Hayes son said it was Scientology recommended treatment for his stroke that ultimately killed him
Isaac Hayes
@@jakerocinante1133
Wait, he died!?
@@shadowdragonlord2295 He was found dead next to a treadmill machine, Scientology encouraged physical activity to purify his body. This goes against all doctors recommendations after a stroke.
Right from the first episode, the premise of How I Met Your Mother was obviously about the titular Mother's death, and what came before. The bit that ruined it was that Ted was still hung up on Robin.
I hate that they killed off Laurel
She was supposed to be with Oliver in the comics
The show wanna do Olicity is fine, but they didn't have to kill off Laurel to secure it
And it's not like it was the casting issue
Because Katie Cassidy came right back as the Black Siren
I stopped watching The Good Doctor after season 3's finale (if you know, you know). The character's death was pointless and I am still angry about it.
Also, unpopular opinion: Mark Sloane and Lexie Grey's deaths hurt way more than Derek Shepard's.
Mark Greene ER
Next: top 20 cartoon character deaths that hurt the show
Why? So they can put dumbass Maude Flanders at #1? No thanks.
The thing that makes me stop watching shows more than anything is not the deaths of certain characters, it's when there is a baby added to the mix. The best way to ruin a show is to play the pregnancy card. Shows are never the same after this, usually for the worse.
Anything past 2018. Seth didnt write for Family Guy. He doesnt have creative control like he used to on the show and mainly just voices now. He stepped back to concentrate on the Orville
South Park was never the same after the death of Kenny.
Until the next episode.
Which time?
Them bastards!
There was one episode where he died for real and was temporarily replaced with Tweek.
"Nope." "Tweek." "Ms. Choksondik."
Knew thus would be here. See, MOJO didn't take the low hanging fruit.... they knew someone else would.
Dr. ROMANO. Without him ER lacked any major conflict. ER may have lasted another 5 more season than it did had he not died so silly
If Walking Dead hadn’t been on this list I would have been floored. The show honestly should have ended when Andrew Lincoln left. It never felt right after.
That's when I stopped watching. I stuck through it for all the other deaths but, to ME, Rick was the anchor. He was there from the beginning and tied everything together. Once he was gone... that was it for me. I heard they brought him back recently, but it's too late for me to get interested in it again.
Chadwick Boseman - Black panther 💀
Black Panther is a movie. Not a TV show.
@@chazarcola7639 I know ...🤷 either way still apply's the same to me
Except for the fact that his death hasn't hurt the MCU in any way whatsoever.
Buffy the Vampire Slayers death should have been in the top 10. When she died, the writing went with it
I've got to admit that as much as I loved Bones it was never the same after they killed Sweets😢
I’m a massive fan of BONES. I can not describe how much sweets dying affected the show. It is when I gave up on the show. Season 10 sucked. Bones was already in decline after season 6. His death, Zach’s return, and Hodgins becoming a parabolic was the death Nell for the series. If not killing it
I'm still mourning Lexi and Mark's deaths in "Grey's Anatomy"
Dana from The L Word.
The show completely spiraled after that season three knife to the chest
Also, Tara from True Blood. I mean the show was already starting to get bad, but her death was bullshit.
Killing off Logan on Veronica Mars deserves to be on this list. I guess it was conceived by showrunner Rob Thomas as a means to open up the show for more potential seasons on Hulu as Veronica isn’t supposed to be happy or something. Instead it just pissed everyone off and killed off any desire to watch any possible new episodes.
Oh, Poussay from OITNB was just... wow. Crazy Eyes was part of the reason she died because a cop was trying to revive her, but CE kept hitting the cop and keeping him from doing his job.
Killing Brian in Family Guy really hurt the show... Glad they brought him back. 😊
Nope, it was the opposite on tv views
@@hoshimaruhajime7933 It's my opinion ok?
@@CandiceVidito happy birthday
@@Marty.Robins it's not my birthday
Definitely agree with Rita being number one. Her death so devastated and infuriated me because of how avoidable it was that I stopped watching the show right then and there
Honestly I'm gonna say you missed Buffy with the death of Tara! It brought in the phrase of killing your gays! Plus they ruined a really good story arc with Willow going evil by only limiting it to one episode!
What about Edith's death in All In The Family? The show was never the same without her.
Lance From Bones shocked me especially when Bones at Lance's autopsy said this isn't Lance .... it's just a body... that's when I stopped watching Bones but as I was watching 2013's Sleepy Hollow guess who shows up to help Ichabod and Abby..... Boothe and Bones 😮 WTF....
Here’s an honorable mention : Adebisi death on Oz. After his death the quality of the show went down hill.
I’m sorry WHAT? Y’all really said Supernatural should have ended at season 5?? Yes, we were all super bummed about Bobby’s death but no, fans did not want the show to end at season 5. I mean, when it finally ended at season 15, most fans have already been asking when it might come back. They also STILL do fan conventions that are packed. Lol, maybe research what the fandom thinks before you make such claims. I’ve never heard of even one actual fan saying any of this. 😂
There were THREE notable murders by the Saviors that should have been avenged. Glenn, Abraham and Denice. Ranked in that order, maybe. The losses might have been worth it, if we'd gotten our REVENGE. But instead, we got to see Rick become Negan's b!tch. The pussification of Rick is what ruined the Walking Dead. I won't waste my time watching a show with a poossyboy as the "hero".
Glenn - Walking Dead
3rd real comment.
@@BlackHatCinephile get a life already. It's sad that you even care about a pointless comment number
I miss Chef singing on South Park
I love your videos as always, I can't wait for the next one.
Where's Tara or Joyce of BTVS?
The original Roseanne series was going to end anyways with or without Dan, because most of the cast wanted to move on, even the network ABC wanted to end the series to green light Disney produced shows. Also Lost went downhill in season three with killing Eko and Charlie, that’s what really hurt the show! And Brian’s death in Family Guy doesn’t count, that’s was jumping the shark, the show was already unwatchable by that point!
Some of these sound like they are straight up from hellers. Also I remember Isaac Hayes left because South Park made fun of Scientology and Hayes is a Scientologist. It’s why Chefs’ death was done in such an over the top and final way.
in how i met your mother. thier mom died 6 YEARS EARLIER
When Homer bent down for that hairpin, I knew _The Simpsons_ was going downhill in the aftermath of that episode.
What about when they killed Carl for no real reason in The Walking Dead? But I guess that show tanked long before that, lol.
I've heard that his actor Chandler Riggs wanted to go to college, and that's why he left.
@mangagirl9132 that's not true at all. He legit went to a collage closer to where filming took place. They fired him because they didn't want to pay him as an adult.
@@calzone3843 That would make sense.
@@calzone3843thats not true either. Chandler Riggs' father was a hostile negotiator... and believed that since in the comics Carl becomes the main character that he was deemed unkillable... and thus played hardball trying to get more money. This has been long since documented and proven to be true.
Glenn's death was to push Maggie into wanting to start the war and the actors all tried to think of ways to spare him but it just wouldn't work for the story. Carl's death hurt the show way more since that literally was the last straw for Andrew Lincoln and a LOT of fans quit after that, way more than when Glenn died. Carl's demise literally changed the show forever in many ways and he was so integral to the story that they had a couple of characters try to fill his comic role like Henry and Judith, but the show really fell flat since he was too important.
WM: *Derek and George's deaths were so tragic*
Lexie Grey: AM I A JOKE TO YOU???
Honorable mention: Quentin from The Magicians
Not saying there wasn't much after his death, but Matthew Crawley from Downton Abbey was a hard one for me. After his death it just seemed like they were pulling anything to bring drama into the show. Like Anna getting SAed, and going to prison after the man that did it dies. That storyline was so unnecessary.
As for Lost, killing Jin and Sun was part of the plan for years. The producers never intended them to reach the end alive. Jack, Kate, Sawyer and Hurley were meant to be the last ones standing.
Eddie Munson from Stranger Things should have been on this list! 😭😢
Jim Beaver wanted to leave Supernatural so they had to kill him off. And yes they did bring him back in flashbacks and finally as a reoccurring character again.
I mean, if you want to be technical, yeah Roseanne was cancelled, but in reality it was retooled into The Conners.
The Walking Dead was over for me when Glen died. I didn't even finish that episode, and have not watched one since.
Glad you mentioned Carl's death for TWD too. Glenn was my favorite, and when they killed him off, showrunners explained they couldn't spare Glenn his comic book fate, as they'd done for other characters, because it would stray too far from the source material. Then they killed Carl, and that excuse became even more bullshit. They were trying to force a "Red Wedding" moment, and that's it.
I don't even Blame Astor For becoming Resentful towards Dexter after Rita's Death.
