Top 10 most absurd series deaths, thank you screenwriters

Series writers are assassins who regularly get rid of characters to advance the script, create new story arcs or simply to shock. It’s commonplace, what. And usually, these deaths make sense. Do you see me coming? (at the same time, you read the title of this top). Yes, there are character deaths that make no sense, and are even downright absurd. To believe that the guys snorted marijuana before writing lol (I don’t know anything about drugs).

1. Susan Ross of Seinfeld, killed by envelopes

I told you about it not long ago in a top on the characters who died because of drama in filming, the role of Susan Ross of Seinfeld was killed in the series because the other actors did not get along with his interpreter, Heidi Swedberg. But the most interesting thing in this story is the cause of Susan’s death: while she was preparing her wedding invitations, Susan died poisoned by the glue from the envelopes she had to lick. The hard blow of life what.

2. Nadine Vautier from Plus Belle La Vie, killed by a ghost

Yes there is a ghost in More beautiful life. And guess what, there were even vampires and a devil (and I’m not talking about the thing with wheels). In short, we have already made a top on the absurd deaths in Plus Belle La Vie, which I invite you to consult for a measured but guaranteed pleasure.

3. Eleanor Shellstrop of The Good Place, who died in a shopping cart accident

The main character of The Good Place, played by Kristen Bell, arrives in “more or less Paradise” at the start of the series, and she later has the opportunity to review his death. A very ridiculous death in a supermarket parking lot where she is caught in a row of drifting shopping carts as she picks up a bottle that has fallen on the ground. Don’t worry, it was deserved.

4. Prince of Bel-Air’s Trevor Collins-Newsworthy, who died while bungee jumping

The guy wanted to propose to his girlfriend live on TV while bungee jumping, but he crashed before he could even finish his question. A very ridiculous scene, but above all extremely poorly played by the characters who react to the death of Trevor. Needless to say, the sitcoms of the time were pretty lame all the same.

5. Victor Lang from Desperate Housewives, who got hit by a roadblock

The town mayor was fighting with Carlos to stop him from taking Gabriel back from him when he was impaled by a fence thrown at him by a tornado. Hard to do more stupid, but that’s also the beauty of Desperate Housewives.

6. Felicia Tilman of Desperate Housewives, killed by her daughter’s ashes

Hold on, since we’re in Desperate, here is another very stupid death: that of Felicia, who had just had her daughter cremated. In the car, she knocked over Beth’s ashes which blinded her, which prevented her from seeing the road and caused her to crash into a truck. Two deaths for the price of one.

7. Game of Thrones’ Tywin Lannister, Killed on the Throne

But not on the Iron Throne. If you remember correctly, the guy was killed by his son Tyrion while he was setting down his peach. A terrible death for the richest and most powerful man in Westeros.

8. Khal Drogo in Game of Thrones, killed by a pillow

Khal Drogo, super warrior feared by all and ready to conquer the world, found himself transformed into a huge vegetable by a witch. Result, it is finally Daenerys who kills him by suffocating him with her pillow. A very worthless death for a guy who broke faces like you do your shoelaces.

9. Doctor Romano from Emergencies, angry with the helicopters

In season 9 of Emergency, the insensitive surgeon had his arm cut off by a helicopter on the roof of the hospital. Bad luck, but it can happen. Anyway, the guy got treatment and everything, and he survived. But in season 10, the guy got killed in another helicopter crash. He must have hurt a helicopter in another life, it’s not possible otherwise.

10. Edie Britt from Desperate Housewives, died in a puddle

Sorry, it’s still Desperate, but this series loves absurd deaths way too much. This time, it’s Eddie who kills himself by hitting an electric pole in his car. But be careful, it’s not the shock of the accident that kills her: she manages to get out of her car, but dies electrocuted in a puddle of water because of an electric cable connected to the pole. Apparently she hadn’t taken the techno course where you learn that it’s better to stay in your car to avoid being electrocuted. Good bye Eddie.
