Fry's dog Seymour.

This! Every single time! My son and I went to ComicCon a few a years ago and went to Billy West's(Voice of Fry) meet and greet.
My son told him how I cried every time I watched that episode.
Billy West told my son that its ok to cry, That crying over someone you miss is a reflecrion of how much you love, and how much a loss can hurt.
He tolld him that sometimes when people cry over Setmour they are really crying over the feeling that Seymour brings to mind, the people that loved them unconditionally and who're gone now...
Not just a cartoon dog....

I have a couple of autgraphed Futurama bits from that day, but the time he spent with us that day and the words offered will last me a lifetime and are bloody priceless

Brendan Fraser in Scubs, it's haunting.

Scrubs handled that episode so well....
The moment you realize that Perry wasnt talking to him...
That he was gone was brilliant.

*Sometime in the early 80's*

A girl see's a shark approaching the 'Pond', an estuary off the main strand on Amity Island. The girl shouts Shark and alerts everyone where it's heading. Brody's wife tells him Mike, their son, is sailing in the Pond with friends. We get a wide tracking shot of Brody, at first jogging then with increasing panic, sprinting towards the Pond as we cut to a masterful wide shot of the shark's fin menacingly descending under the surface. As the shark approaches the group it knocks a guy out of a rowing boat. He recovers with a perplexed look but with an overhead shot we see the approaching shark just under the surface jaws agape as it drags him under the water. Another quick cut to a wide shot of sunbathers disturbed by his screams of pain. We then see him finally dragged under the water with an accompanying pool of blood. To cap things off we cut to a static shot on the sea bed as the rowers severed LEG drops into frame and comes to rest. Then another cut to Brodys catatonic son in the Pond above.

tl:dr

I was traumatised when I was 5 years old by Verna Fields and her Oscar winning editing skills.

Adam Carter - Spooks. Although you could never take a character for granted in that show because they would kill them with wanton abandon, but Adam dying was the most jaw dropping, unexpected death that I never saw coming. I was full sure there was still hope even when his comm link went dead :pac:

The mother in Who will Love my children

My mam watched that with her mother in law, she was in bits, granny thought it was the most pointless film ever because "isn't the eldest a woman of 13, she can rear them". A woman from a very different generation!

manutd83 · 19-09-2017 08:41PM

Have to agree with Brendan Fraser in scrubs,was a strong few episodes

Burial. · 19-09-2017 08:43PM

+1 on Omar and Bodie but the death of Wallace always hit me hardest. Just not built for that life and just couldn't escape the harrows of it. Especially after seeing him look after all those little kids even though he was only a child himself. "Where's the boy String? Where's Wallace?"

I was going to mention this. Probably the first and only time that a moment in a game brought a tear to my eye.

Quite possible there was a man called Jesus... but there are no contemporary writings to substantiate this...so the mythical being Jesus is probably just that...a myth

But it's proven that there was a jesus. Weather or not someone wants to believe what he said is another matter.

In any case mentioning jesus in such a thread like this is a dick thing to do. Just said to wind people up.

This thread is about characters death who got to you. No need for any religious jabs.

That f*cking horse in The Never ending Story

Billy86 · 19-09-2017 08:48PM

I was about 8 when The Lion King was in cinemas, so that one is always a quite memorable.

Still, for a a pretty underrated comedy show this was ending was always ****ing tragic.
