Hi there, a really good friend of mine posted a great article about character deaths in TV shows on her website, so I thought I'd post some of the relevant/Interesting parts here. To read the whole post, go here.

( Are all shows doomed to fail because of deaths? After all they happen in real life too! Yes, yes they do. Deaths in shows are sometimes just necessary because actors/actresses leave for whatever reasons but my rant is more about -how- they leave the show. We laughed with them, we got all horny when they took of their shirts and now we demand to grieve! )
