11 Most Shocking and Devastating TV Deaths

 There are spoilers all over this post so read with caution! I get emotionally attached to most of the TV series I follow and it's so hard when they kill one of the characters I love. From Will Gardner in The Good Wife , Allison Bailey in The Affair and Ned Stark in Game of Thrones , it's been a TV emotional roller coaster for me. Here's a list of some of my most shocking and emotional TV Deaths. Will Gardner "The Good Wife" (Josh Charles) 2016 Will Gardner was one of my favorite characters in The Good Wife and I always wished and hoped he would end up having a future with Alicia. I was really rooting for them but this was cut off by his extremely shocking death in the hands of his emotionally distraught client. Remembering how Kalinda raced to the hospital and found Will's body missing a shoe still haunts me to this day. And of course I cried for 2 hours non stop while watching this scene.

M. Night Shyamalan Gives an Entertaining but Slightly Underwhelming Conclusion to His Trilogy - "Glass" Review

After playing David Dunn in 2000's Unbreakable , Bruce Willis returns with Samuel L. Jackson and Split 's James McAvoy to conclude M. Night Shyamalan's Superhero trilogy along with Anya Taylor-Joy and Spencer Treat Clark. In Glass, which takes place three weeks after the events of Split , David Dunn uses his supernatural abilities to track down Kevin Wendell Crumb which leads both of them to being captured and locked up in a psychiatric facility which also holds Elijah Price aka Mr Glass. They are to be treated by Dr. Ellie Staple (Sarah Paulson), a Psychiatrist who specializes in superhero delusions. Her goal is to convince her patients that there's a difference between comic books and the real world. She underestimates these three men especially Glass and Kevin and the escalating violence in the ensuing days leads Elijah Glass to his true goal.
