Okay, now lets name the saddest scenes from T.V. shows....

[Lindsey]

When Nate dies in Six Feet Under, when Charlie dies in LOST (and so many other death scenes in LOST), When Rita dies in Dexter (sad and so shocking), The Adam scene in the storage locker in The Big C, and many, many others - but once again, these are off the top of my head. Oh yea, when Dr. Green dies in ER.:cry:

[hifiguy]

1. The end of the Futurama episode "Jurassic Bark"

tears my heart out every time I see it. I can barely stand to watch it.

[myrna minx]

4. That episode made me weep too! It was so heart wrenching.n/t

[mikeytherat]

22. This was modified in the Futurama movie "Bender's Big Score."

The dog is sitting in front of Penucci's Pizza, having just been petted by Fry, when Bender fires a plasma-blast into the building to kill Fry (long, time-traveling story). The dog is carbonized instantly (so he doesn't keep waiting for Fry to come back).

"Jurassic Bark" is the one Futurama episode I just can't watch again, and it's my favorite show.

[hifiguy]

24. You're right

I never remember the movies as clearly as the episodes because Comedy Central shows them so infrequently. But Jurassic Bark still makes me cry every time I watch it through to the end.

It's my favorite animated show too. South Park is way too inconsistent and seems to be starting to run out of gas. Futurama's return last summer reminded me in no uncertain terms how much better than Family Guy (another show starting to run out of gas) it has always been. (I think of them together after watching them back to back every night on Adult Swim for five years) And American Dad just plain sucks - not one even remotely likable or funny character.

25. another vote for Jurassic Bark

2. For me it wasn't the scene where Charlie actually dies

it was the whole episode beforehand where they're like totally telling you that he's going to die. :(

[sarge43]

3. The final scene of the final episode of Prime Suspect.

While everyone else whoops it up at her retirement party, Tennison just walks out, down a dark street -- alone.

[kick-ass-bob]

5. M*A*S*H when Henry died.

The final show was sad, having everyone leave, but Henry's death on his exit was astonishing. I found out that the cast didn't know they were killing him (sans Alda) and the first time they heard it was when Radar announced that his helicopter(plane?) crashed.

[deutsey]

6. I think it was his plane...it was shot down over the Sea of Japan, if I remember correctly n/t

[JVS]

40. I don't think it was even shot down, I think it just crashed.

Ah, just checked. It was shot down.

[Brickbat]

34. Agreed.

[fishwax]

7. Shortly before Adriana's death in The Sopranos

That morning she confessed to Chris that she'd been speaking to an FBI agent, and they decide to run away together. Chris goes out to get gas and make preparations, but has second thoughts. She gets a call from Tony that Chris has been in a car accident and that someone is coming to pick her up and take her to the hospital. Then you see Adrianna driving on a the interstate, a suitcase on the seat beside her, sun shining, upbeat music, etc., and you think maybe she wised up and ran, but you know she doesn't quite have it in her. Then it cuts to her staring out the window on the passenger's side of Silvio's car, on the way to certain death.

Okay, maybe not the saddest, but it's a good scene, and Nate's death (Six Feet Under) and Henry's death (MASH) had already been mentioned.

[Amerigo Vespucci]

43. The character basically died for the sins of others...

...granted, to be the girlfriend of a mob guy and then become an FBI informant is a guarantee that your days are numbered.

The worst part of the scene, for me, is when she got to the moment where she knew, and was scrambling away on all fours, and Silvio yelled "Where the hell are you going? Come here, you ****"...

Many of the story lines on that show involving women were extremely brutal. I think it was an attempt on the part of series creator David Chase to present the most objective, balanced view inside mob life. If it were all about these guys being monsters, no one would watch...it would get boring very quickly. If it were all about their affluent lifestyles and Tony Soprano's sprawling New Jersey mansion, same thing...one dimensional.

For the record, TV Guide interviewed "actual New Jersey wiseguys" during the second season of the show, and they all signed off on its accuracy. The only negative feedback they had was Christopher...Adrianna's boyfriend. They called him "one for the trunk," meaning no REAL mob guys would have put up with his crap, regardless of his blood ties to Tony. He would have been snuffed in the first couple of episodes. Other than that, they said the show was pretty damned accurate.

[fishwax]

44. yeah, that part makes me cringe

"Many of the story lines on that show involving women were extremely brutal." Indeed.

It's a great scene, although that part is something other than sad to me. Ugh. And so often Sil seems fairly likable. But on the occasion when his brutality comes out, it comes out forcefully.

Another sad moment in that sequence is before Adriana gets the call from Tony. When Chris is going out to get gas and he sees the family of regular folks. You can see his face fall a bit knowing that's what his future holds and you know he's going to give Adriana up.

"For the record, TV Guide interviewed "actual New Jersey wiseguys" during the second season of the show, and they all signed off on its accuracy.

8. The 9th inning of most Cubs games.

[kick-ass-bob]

10. Actually, it's the 8th.

By the 9th, the depression is already in full swing.

[abq e streeter]

52. Or....

I have allergies every spring that include red and tearing eyes. I always tell people they're not allergies, but just a Cub fan just getting the crying out of the way now instead of waiting till September.

[pokerfan]

23. The first inning of most Mariners games.

;)

[GoCubsGo]

37. LOL!!! No kidding.

Hell, sometimes, it's the first pitch.

[JVS]

38. LOL!

[book lady]

9. When Officer Joe Coffey is killed in Hill Street Blues

[HipChick]

33. Third Watch...they killed Bobby and Alex..

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9kaxVBiRph0&feature=related

[GoCubsGo]

36. It really pissed me off when they killed Bobby.

He was my favorite character on that show. I didn't like it when they offed Alex, either. Both very sad.

[HipChick]

49. I stopped watching after the killed Bobby..

[Lars39]

11. Dr Who losing Rose.

[grntuscarora]

27. Donna Noble

saves the universe, then is not allowed to remember any of it :cry:

[Lars39]

39. Always liked her....hated that was her "fate".

[Flaxbee]

12. When Gee dies and everything unravels on Homicide: Life on the Street

I loved that show.

[kick-ass-bob]

13. That was in the TV movie.

I actually don't even remember the rest of the movie after they killed him. I know I watched it, but I must have been in mourning or something.

[Flaxbee]

26. oh, that's right. Wish one of the networks would re-run the

series instead of endless bad sh*t like NCIS and CSI reruns

[kick-ass-bob]

51. I know. Who needs daily marathons of everything?

If I had the time, I'd be able to watch 7 seasons of a show in 2 weeks time.

[cyberpj]

14. Warning: Nerd about to post! I say it's the death of Wash, a beloved character of Firefly,

who dies in the film Serenity.

"In the silent moments after the crash, Wash lets out the breath he was holding. "I am a leaf on the wind," he says, turning to his wife, Zoë, and his captain, Mal. "Watch me--" and then a massive spike fired from the Reaver ship slams through the windshield, impaling him in his chair, and killing him instantly."

[cyberpj]

15. Oh. But that was film, not TV. Sorry. nt

[FloridaJudy]

30. And Shepard Book

That was pretty depressing too.

[bookworm65t]

16. Time Enough At Last -Twilight Zone

Burgess Meredith is a bibliophile who survives the atomic bomb, only to break his glasses at the end.

:cry:

[Frank Cannon]

50. You know, that TZ episode never made any sense to me.

It would seem that he would be able to piece the lenses together enough that he could find his way to a nearby optometrist's office or Lenscrafters or whatever and raid it for new lenses.

But I always overthink this stuff.

[MrCoffee]

17. "You get Hoynes"

Martin Sheen's portrayal of POTUS as Job in Two Cathedrals is the best acting I will ever see on television. That scene is gutting.

[Denninmi]

31. I think I remember this scene, but can't place it in context.

Was it the episode when his secretary Mrs. Laningham was killed in the car crash?

[cyberpj]

32. That sounds right to me. And Hoynes was the VP who had the affair I think. Not sure. nt

[Zephie]

18. The 10th Doctor's regeneration "I don't want to go..."

I burst into tears. How lame am I? :eyes: Still one of the saddest moments IMO.

[NightWatcher]

19. The Diff'rnt Strokes episode where the bicycle shop guy hits on Dudley and Arnold

it was way too creepy.

I hate the episodes with a lesson

[mikeytherat]

20. End of "Good Times" - "We regret to inform you that your husband was killed in an accident."

[ohiosmith]

21. Archie finding Edith's slipper under the bed.

[Arugula Latte]

28. Jimmy Smits' character gets to see what his unborn son will look like

as Smits is dying.

I might be a bit hazy on the details, but he said: "Could I please see my boy?" ... He got a vision of his little boy at about age five.

:cry:

[Luciferous]

29. The final episode of Buffy when Spike dies...

:cry:

[Brickbat]

35. The whole goddamn episode of "Snoopy Come Home."

[Denninmi]

41. The final episode of the third season of Ballykissangel, when...

bar owner Assumptia Fitzgerald is electrocuted to death in the cellar trying to fix the fuse box, after Father Clifford had professed his love for her and decided to leave the priesthood to be with her. Very sad and I truly didn't see it coming. It was a big contrast to the rest of the series, which was light and mainly comedic and reminded me a lot of 'Northern Exposure'.

[sakabatou]

42. Maes Hughes death and funeral from FMA

[LeftyMom]

45. Baelor's sept.

Warning: spoilers for the first season of Game of Thrones. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baelor

[XemaSab]

46. I think the thing that's so crushing about that scene

is the reactions of whatserface and the moron. :(

[MrsBrady]

47. Little House on the Prarie....

almost every other episode...so pick one...

but I loved that show.

[csziggy]

48. Torchwood - when Ianto Jones and most of the team are killed

They'd already run Owen Harper through the grinder by killing and resurrecting him, but to kill off everyone but Jack, Gwen and Rhys was heartbreaking.

[Initech]

53. The end of the second season of Breaking Bad

[Enrique]

54. Alice overhearing the Brady kids talking about how they don't like her anymore

little fuckers thought she was squealing on them. :mad:
