[Hated Trope] Character deaths that just scream, "This was done for shock value to upset the viewer, and very little else"

  1. Carl Grimes - The Walking Dead (To be blunt, The Walking Dead does this A LOT. Carl's death was just the most outrageous of all.)
  2. Missandhei - Game of Thrones (Not as guilty of this as The Walking Dead, but still, especially in the lesser quality later seasons, characters got these kind of deaths far more often than they ever should have.)
  3. Ironhide - Transformers: Dark of the Moon
  4. Quicksilver - Avengers: Age of Ultron
