Spoiler Alert: 'The Good Wife' And Five Of The Most Shocking TV Deaths
Television writers can be a cruel breed, sometimes they seem to delight in shocking their viewers and sending them on an emotional downward spiral. This is no better demonstrated than when they kill off a major character in the most devastating and unexpected fashion. Fans of the ‘The Good Wife’ know what we're talking about, but it's not the first time TV viewers have been left in shock.

The '_Grey'_s' writers love throwing a good death shocker our way, remember Issy’s doomed fiancee Danny Duquette or what about George O’Malley’s sad ending in season 5? But then came season 8’s devastating plane crash where we said goodbye to Meredith’s little sister Lexie. This one was particularly heartbreaking as things had started to finally look up for Lexie and her true love Mark Sloane. Then suddenly she was dead. Of course in the season 9 premiere we learnt that Sloane’s injuries in the crash were also fatal and we said goodbye to McSteamy. The memory of the two doctors was later honoured by their co-workers when Seattle Grace Hospital was renamed Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital, meaning we'll never forget Lexie and Mark.
