7. Beans from "Cheaper by the Dozen."
Seeing "Cheaper by the Dozen" in theaters when I was eight was truly a traumatic experience. When the family's black sheep child Max, runs away with his pet turtle Beans the whole family is in an uproar. When the catch him getting on a bus to run away it's a happy family moment. What do they do to ruin that family moment? They kill the kids pet frog, what kind of monster wrote this?
6. Marissa Cooper "The O.C."
Does anyone else remember when Mischa Barton spoiled her own death? At the end of season three "The O.C.'s" resident bad girl perished in a fire car accident. Ryan and Marissa were finally going to be together! This was the first show I binge watched at college and vividly remember watching this in the library in between classes, sobbing on the silent floor.
5. George O'Malley from "Grey's Anantomy."
I can feel the tears coming on writing this. The residents at Seattle Grace were under the impression they were working with a "John Doe," but it ended up being George the entire time. Watching the look on Meredith's face when she realize's it's George would break a heart made of stone.
4. Dobby from "Harry Potter."
One of Harry Potter's most loyal friends. Easily one of the saddest deaths in the series How could you hold back tears when it was discovered Bellatrix's knife hit him. At least he died a free elf.
3. JT Yorke from "Degrassi."
"Yeah mascot boy?" The first death I honestly remember watching on television. JT was killed by a Lakehurst student outside Emma's house on his longtime on again off again girlfriend, Liberty's birthday. JT's death added a lot of tension when Lakehurst high school burned down in between seasons and they ended merging with Degrassi high during the next season.
2. Finn Hudson from "Glee."
This was truly the most depressing hour of television. Not only did the character Finn Hudson diem but Cory Monteith, the actor that played him, also lost his battle with addiction.
1. Marley from "Marley and Me."
Honestly convinced whoever made this movie created this as a form of torture. The movie itself doesn't have much of a plot, but my God they make you fall in love with this dog.
