      Charlie Sheen's and Melissa's death I get, that was wrong. But here's the thing people forget to understand. If you can't come up with any reason for a character(s) to be in the show anymore then you either write them out or kill them off. Yes, don't kill them off for stupid reasons but also sometimes we gotta except that we can't have everything we want. People keep forgetting that major people die as well as minor and bad people. Same as our life. I learned that in January when someone close to me died.

    I cried so hard when Sweets died because he had become my favorite character.
    One other death that should be included is Logan from Veronica Mars. The backlash from that resulted in the show getting cancelled for the final time. Nearly the entire fandom turned their backs on the show's creator & Kristen Bell for thinking so highly of killing off Logan. The overall treatment of Jason Dohring having to do the media tour alone to promote the show that he was killed off from just enraged the fans further.

      Bobby's death was hard to accept, but it was, to me, going to happen sooner or later (and then stuck around as a ghost). Charlie and Kevin's death I'll never forgive them for and deserved better.

    Once Upon a Time - killing off Baelfire/Neal. The whole reason Rumplestilskin went through years of putting together the everything needed to create a curse that would send him (and everyone else in the Enchanted Forest) to the real world was to reunite with his son & repair their relationship. But a trip to Neverland to save Henry, Neal's son from his great-grandfather who then followed them, resulted in Rumple's death & then Baelfire being cursed trying to bring his father back & in order to save Baelfire, Rumple joined them together, but once separated, Baelfire would die.
    Another would be the weird decision that the only way for everyone to return to the real world because of the Wicked Witch, was for Charming to sacrifice his heart for the curse, with Snow deciding to split her own heart to save Charming.
    They just made so many bad steps with the show, (like pairing Emma with a guy who treated her like a trophy, threatened to kill her family, flirted with her mom in front of her soon after they met, among many other things (some I saw, some I only read about)) that I quit watching at the end of season 3.

      It might have been traumatic, but Glenn's death was necessary. It's how Negan was introduced in the comics. Granted, he did kill Abraham earlier that episode. However, they had already given Abraham's comic book death to Denise, so he was on borrowed time anyway. Killing both Glenn and Abraham was both unexpected and source accurate (people who have read the comics first would have been expecting Glenn, and been surprised by Abraham).
      Now, having Carl kill himself later in the show pissed me off. He stuck around much longer in the comics. They had to give some of his scenes in the comics to Henry and Judith in order to incorporate them into the show. But killing him off was a dumb move.

      As for Carl's death, it was indeed beyond stupidity and not even Henry or Judith could fulled that void which is even more sad. Judith is a great character but she doesn't really have her own story development, she seems to be just there to replace Carl and unlike him, her role seems secondary until the final in season 11.

    Having grown up with the Arrowverse, Laura's death was a good pick for this list. It didn't stop me from watching it (been a while though) it definitely hurt. Though an honourable mention would be when they killed off Robin Hood at the end of Once Upon A Time season 5. I was really hooked onto his beautiful relationship with Regina, especially since they had good chemistry and they both brought out the good in each other (mainly him for her), so when he suddenly died I could barely get into season 6 before just giving up.

    Okay, no offense for Glenn fans, I loved the guy, too. But his death? It was gonna happen anyway. Sure, the quality of the show slowly went down once Negan came on, but it wasn’t because of Negan himself or Glenn getting killed. It was the depressing writing that was taking place during Season 7. Hell, if anything, Negan himself was the best part of the Savior War seasons.
    However, if you wanna talk about the death that totally messed with the show? Hands down Carl's, no question.
    He was not ever supposed to die. Ever! Like the comics ending as well as what Negan said, that kid was the future. The only reason why he was killed was because Scott Gimple, the show runner at the time, had somewhat falling out with Chandler Riggs over minor BS. And because of that, it also led to Andrew Lincoln wanting out of the show, hence Rick's sudden departure a season later. And because of that, the whole storyline for the last few seasons really derailed compared to the source material.
    So if you wanna thank anyone? Thank Scott Gimple

My best example is an anime series "Fairy Tail", Laxus is a very strong character who will end you in 5 seconds yet he gets taken out at the very beginning of every major battle and you don't see him again for another 100 chapters, yet the weakest has one fight early on and is done for but somehow has enough stamina to fight 3 more powerful enemies, on deaths door again and does a victory pose at the end.
