OK! TV Awards: Vote for the Saddest Death of the Year

People are killed off TV shows for all different reasons. Maybe their character has been sick for a long time, and their death comes in a big, weepy tearjerker episode (see Parenthood). Or perhaps their death was part of a majorly dramatic cliffhanger (see Scandal). And one this year happened, sadly, because the actor himself passed away (Finn on Glee).

TV deaths are a major bummer whenever they occur, whether they work for the plot or not. If nothing else, you miss those actors, too! Here are the saddest character passings of the year. Which one gutted you? Vote now!
