Killing off TV characters is risky business. You run the risk of ruining a good show, and pissing off a lot of fans in the process. We've rounded up 15 deaths that completely were essentially the death knell for their respective shows. Do you agree with these takes? 1. Smurf – Animal Kingdom This one is very recent, but what the heck? Ellen Barkin’s Smurf was one of the only reasons to tune into Animal Kingdom. She was quick-witted, badass, and crazy. Those are great traits for a TV character! 2. Rhaegal – Game of Thrones Game of Thrones spent years saying just how strong the dragons were, so to have Euron wipe Rhaegal out with ease left many fans wondering what the heck the creators were thinking of when they thought it would be a good twist. It was the first major disappointment in what was ultimately a terrible final season for the HBO epic. 3. Tara – True Blood True Blood turned to crap long before the pitiful series finale, and that was thanks in large part to the death of Tara aka one of the best characters. Tara’s relationship with Pam was going to strength to strength when she was killed off in a pretty nonsensical way. 4. Laurel – Arrow Just when it seemed like the writers were finally starting to realize that Katie Cassidy’s character had a huge fanbase, they killed her off. It was pretty bizarre, and the backlash resulted in them bringing back another iteration of the character that ultimately became known as Laurel. 5. Mike -Desperate Housewives Desperate Housewives managed to remain fresh for most of its eight-season run, but the show will always be remembered for jumping the shark ahead of its finale when it opted to kill off Mike Delfino. 6. Cristal – Dynasty When Dynasty Season 1 ended with Cristal in a burning barn with a gunshot to the abdomen, fans thought the character would make a miraculous recovery for Season 2. However, Nathalie Kelley was written out of the series, and another actress stepped in as a new Cristal. Yikes. View Slideshow
Some TV couples suck. There , we said it. Despite trying to push some couples to endgame status, some are very clearly not that into each other. The Hollywood Gossip has rounded up 13 couples who have a grand total of zero chemistry. Sorry … not sorry. 1. Kara and Mon-El – Supergirl Mon-El was one of the worst characters on Supergirl, and it was largely because the producers tried to put force them together. Mon-El was officially exiled from the series about a year after his debut. 2. Jackson and Maggie – Grey’s Anatomy Jackson and Maggie were believable as friends, but not so much as a couple. They need to give up on their relationship, or they run the risk of not being friends ever again. 3. Ray and Felicity – Arrow On a show that’s all about the relationship between Oliver and Felicity, Felicity’s short-lived relationship with Ray felt like a mere plot device to throw in some drama. There was a severe lack of chemistry between the characters. 4. George and Izzie – Grey’s Anatomy George pursued Izzie pretty much from the get-go on Grey’s Anatomy, but there was nothing there, and fans picked up on that. It’s just a shame that Shonda Rhimes did not. 5. Zelena and Hades – Once Upon a Time Just when it seemed like Zelena was on the road to becoming one of the good guys, she decided to embark on a relationship with Hades. It was … tedious. Two villains don’t make a right. 6. Bill and Sookie – True Blood Bill and Sookie were the central couple on this HBO series, but fans were shipping Sookie and Eric from the get-go. That shows you how crappy the OG pairing was. View Slideshow

In exchange for a “big pile of money,” Leo Bergen took Susan on as a client, although his tough love eventually made the senator to “quit.” Enter Olivia. And enter a successful Senate hearing for Ross as a result, even if it required a bit of crow-eating on Fitz’s part to coax enough votes from the politicians who believed the West Angola war served as a mockery of democracy.

Rosen tells Jake and Huck about this “Diego Munoz,” the guy who gave his wife the files, prompting Huck to admit it’s him.

Afterward, Huck receives a smooch at the doorstep from his proud wife, yet Jake presume that David will “shut it down.” Instead, he claims to be inspirted to use the files to “get the bad guys” once and for all.
