Mike in Horseheads Posted January 30, 2018 Posted January 30, 2018 Henry Blake from M*A*S*H was a tear jerker. Tad Martin from All my Children- of course he came back as Todd who was really Tad and all was well 1

Alan, the lawyer in Chicago Hope. His death was such a surprise to me, I stopped watching the show I was so pissed off. Henry Blake - M*A*S*H. That was heart-wrenching. Good call. Literally had a visceral reaction to this when it aired. Nobody saw that coming. Was that a result of Maclean Stevenson's contract demands?

However, after three seasons Stevenson began chafing (as did Wayne Rogers) at the fact he was playing second fiddle to the wisecracking Hawkeye (Alan Alda), and asked to be let out of his contract during the show's third season. The writers reluctantly accomplished this transition in the final episode of Season 3, in which Henry Blake was discharged, only to board a plane that was shot down over the Sea Of Japan, killing everyone on board (a part that was added after the scripts were distributed as to engender genuine emotion from the actors as they were genuinely unaware of that part of the storyline). http://mash.wikia.com/wiki/McLean_Stevenson 1 1

Not a good career move for Stevenson, imo.
JÂy RÛßeÒ Posted January 30, 2018 Posted January 30, 2018 SPOILER ALERT!!! Not having read the books, Ned Stark's beheading sure was a shock
shrader Posted January 30, 2018 Posted January 30, 2018 To this day, I still have no idea how they were able to write off Poochie from The Itchy & Scratchy & Poochie Show. 1 4
Fadingpain Posted January 30, 2018 Posted January 30, 2018 (edited) I was amazed when they chopped the head off Sean Bean's character in GOT! I was new to the show and binge watching at that time and I couldn't believe they killed off the guy I perceived to be the star of the show. That was before I realized they were going to kill off EVERYONE eventually. LOL. ALSO: When Tony Soprano KILLED Christopher! That was totally unexpected and it kind of hit me hard! That was one of the absolute most dark moments in the show. If they threw that in there for shock value, it worked! Edited January 30, 2018 by Fadingpain 1

That's why having Sean Bean play Eddard Stark as the only truly recognizable actor by almost anyone watching was a brilliant casting decision. I'll throw in George's deceased fiance from envelope licking in Seinfeld.

That was a rough one. And the OR just keeps going.... quietly.

Christopher was a mess and a risk.
