Abagail from Riverdale.
Elsie from Westworld, strangled (2016)
correction: shot (2018)*
most recent one being Villanelle makes my heart hurt
Legends of Tomorrow killed off the real Sara Lance and replaced her with a clone.
RIP 2022 Fine from “Vampire in the garden”
Ruby knowby from ash vs the evil dead. In fact I think I’m their wiki she’s marked as having died twice.
This also marks the 5th time that Lucy Lawless had died and appears on this list. Someone should tell her next time she represents to get it in her contract that her character survives the show
Legends of Tomorrow killed off the real Sara Lance and replaced her with a clone.
Charly Burke – The Orville
I was just about to say this!
Joffrey in House of the Dragon now. F**kitty f**king f**k.
Please take a second look at the circumstances of Kira’s death on The Magicians.
Julia refused to kill her, as I recall. Kira’s counselor did, as a mercy killing.
Also, it was ambiguous whether Kira was gay.
[SPOILER ALERT]
French TV show “Les Combattantes” (2022): Marguerite de Lancastel, shot on a battlefield during WWI while working as an ambulance driver and trying to rescue her wounded son.
[SPOILER ALERT] Of course, this is more of an “Anyone Can Die” trope, but she is the only main female character to die (the show is about four women during WWI), and the very next scene features a very straight plotline that – obviously – ends well. Sooo…
CLEXA death is infuriating because it goes to show how debased sold out producers crew writers & directors have become.
All knew plenty well about Fridging and Bury your gays tropes.
So what do they do?
Mix both in one slap in the face of fandom just to say:
“See? we are in charge here.
We re the ones calling the shots.
Its not your call.
We are Gods in our Olympus.
Only White House Gods can challenge us.”
Newsflash morons.
Heroes can kill Gods.
Luv & Thunder proved even mortal worshipers can become Gor Butchers.
Your not even Gorrs let alone Gods.
Even if u were.
Remember what Wonder Diana did to Ares?
Remember what Kratos did to Olympians?
Remember what Winchester Bros did to Chuck?
U definitively should watch competition shows to dim your hubris.
Not to worry.
Fandome came along in droves to remind u of wise saying:
Hubris precedes the fall from Grace.
Since u white relics of medieval times seem to appreciate old biblical values your supposed to heed to those sayings.
Theyre wise cautionary tales much like sweet Jesus Paraboles.
Then again i guess u powers that be are not much into New Testament save from Revelations & Rapture maybe.
U re more like Old Testament & Judges type.
Just remember that.
If Rapture became reality fans complaininh bout your cruel misdeeds would be taken to Heavens and U re the ones who would be left behind to face the consequences of scorched hell on Earth of yer own making.
Meditate on that before yer forced to be left dining on Ashes, literally.
Judy Hale from Dead to Me died of cancer in the series finale today
