19 Shocking Death Scenes We’ll Never Recover From

4. Zoe on ‘House of Cards’

Frank Underwood wasn’t going to stop at anything to rid his life of obstacles by the second season of House of Cards, but (spoiler alert!) it was still dumbfounding when he pushed his former lover Zoe Barnes in front of a moving train to kill her. That’s not just cold and calculated, that’s crazy. It’s just one of the many reasons we love to hate Kevin Spacey in this diabolical role.

5. Denny on ‘Grey’s Anatomy’

Denny was a patient of Izzy’s who became her fiance while he was waiting on a heart transplant. He got it, but then he died from a blood clot from his stitches. Izzy found him, which of course made the scene that much harder to handle. Shonda Rymes has since tortured us with tragic death scenes with multiple characters, including George, Lexi, Mark and Derrick. Nobody is safe in Shondaland, so guard your heart.

6. Will on ‘The Good Wife’

There was a collective gasp around the TV viewing world when lawyer Will Gardner was shot by a deranged client in Season 5. Nobody saw that twist coming, and it was tough to process let alone watch the various characters deal with his sudden loss.
