This week on It Was a Thing on TV
First, we’re taking a look at what happens when deaths occur on TV shows. To start, we look at a handful of incidents where a character dies in a TV show, why the character dies, and how a show handles such an occurrence. This episode does not talk about actual actor passings; we will cover that subject on Thursday.
Then, we look at the more tragic side of what happens when someone on a show passes away in real life. This episode gets into some potentially disturbing topics. Listener discretion is advised.
