Characters who shouldn't have died


Recommended Posts

For me, it's Dixie on AMC. I waited 18 years for Tad and Dixie to have a child together, and just as we were going to get that, tiic dropped the bomb and fired Cady McClain. Dixie's death was the last day I watched AMC, and I don't miss it at all, after being a loyal fan for 30 years

I agree and it also killed off their central heroine. Lucy lost her main rival as well. Eve being killed made Alison the central heroine and while she was good, it wasn't the same. PC screwed over the Eve/Ian fanbase and the Lucy/Kevin one.

I also think Karen shouldn't have died either. It was pointless.

Frankie Frame and Ryan Harrison from AW were two horrible mistakes, as was Carl Hutchins.

Most of the others were mentioned already.

Leo Dupres, All My Children

I miss Leo so much. Such a rich character and they killed him off. They should have just killed off Greenlee at that point since after she died her character was pretty much destroyed with all those awful romances with Carlos, Juan Pablo and eventually Ryan.

I also agree with killing off Al Holden, One Life To Live as well as Jennifer Rapport from the same show.

There are alot of deaths I felt were unneeded. Cassie from Y&R, Jennifer from ATWT,ect.

Danny McCall - marked the end of any human side to Sam McCall.

AJ Quartermaine - proved that the hack Mr. Pratt was only interested in plot.

Alan Quartermaine - anyone finding a reason for his death? Didn't think so, it was pointless.

OLTL

Keri Reynolds - a character with the rare ability to make Antonio likable, they wrote her into a corner and took her dignity away. I suppose, in a way, they probably did the right thing by throwing her off that balcony then.

I'm on the fence about Maureen Reardon's death on GL. It created lots of good emotional drama, but destroyed the show further on in the future.

Here's my list for GL:

Phillip Spaulding

Ross Marler

Jackie Marler

Jenna Bradshaw

Nadine Cooper

Sarah Shayne

ABC is the home of killing off characters that I love. Gillian, AJ, Alan, Karen, etc., etc. the list goes on.

I don't think there's a character on DAYS that I thought never should have been killed off lol.

I actually loved Tico Santi on OLTL.... not.

If you go to YouTube and search Maureen Bauer, someone has posted all the episodes souroounding the car accident and her death. Now that was a character who should never have died. Peter Simon and Liz Sloan did some amaxing work that week. If only that stint at GL would have destrioyed JFP's career and end her reign of terror.

I think the soap deaths that have affected me the most were:

Dixie Cooney Martin (both times, but this last time the most....bc its without a doubt permanent and was totally unexpected)

Gillian Andrassy Lavery (why did she have to die????)

Maria Santos Grey (although she came back to life and now I don't really miss her much bc Edmund/Maria reunion sucked the big one)

Natalie Dillon (although had Kate Collins played out the role of Natalie to her death, then it would have affected me even more)
