Agree with ER.
Dan Conner died? Somebody on NCIS?
All those detectives dying on NYPD Blue, no mention? Like Ricky Schroeder?
No votes for Max Guevera?
Yeah I forgot about ER. Lucy Knight's death was shocking and at the time, with a show like that, it wasn't guarranteed that Carter would make it.
I thought Mark Greene's was one of the more touching one's on TV. Not shocking in any way but very well played.
As for Max then I have to say that she never stayed dead so doesn't count IMO. There was one episode of the season still to go so there was no way they were really gonna do that. It's like Buffy's 'death' at the end of season 1. To me this list represents characters that stay dead.

I do not dispute your logic, however DarkAngelIsAll has posted in this thread, and it is shocking that he has not trumped your points with a post on Max.
Doctor Greene died?

Not TV, but yeah, when Wash got it, I was freaked. I was like: Whedon is EVIL!!!!! I HATE THIS MOVIE!!!!
But
I got better.
I was the same way. I saw the movie opening night with my dad and he was a little mad at how bummed I was afterward. "You've been talkin' 'bout this movie for more than a year, you think you'd be a little happier havin' seen it. *grumble grumble surly grumble*"

I pray for one last landing,
on the globe that gave me birth.
Let me rest my eyes on the fleecy skies
and the cool, green hills of Earth.

I´m glad that BSG and Dexter got in there but they´ve missed some obvious and awesome ones.. Without spoiling anything I´ll just say TSCC and possibly Dollhouse should have been on there. At least TSCC..
Select to view spoiler:
Derek Reese biting the bullit was quite shocking and awesome, also Camerons "death" is kinda out of the blue. At least in the way it happens but I loved it. And then we have Summer on DH as well.. I knew she would die but I didn´t see it happening when it did.

I don't know about shocking deaths....but the most shocking TV event ever for me was Xander getting his eye gouged out with relish by Caleb. Nothing before or since has ever made me feel as ickified and stunned. so stunned at the time I had to go and get comforted by my housemate...despite the fact I had woken her with my horrified squawking...and I'm not even a huggy person! that's how traumatised I was!

The season 1 finale of The Sandbaggers, first shown in 1980.
I'm not going to spoil it, except to point out that it all was, as you would expect, perfectly logical and sensible.

When Highlander's girlfriend died on the TV show. I don't remember her name (I don't remember his name either, to be honest).
As he looked around the place they shared and at all the old pictures of them together while showing a montage of his memories of her, that was the first time I'd heard "Dust in the Wind" by Kansas... a song that was stuck in my head for years, even though I never knew if I'd ever hear it again. I didn't even know the song wasn't a thing that wasn't made specifically for the show until a few years later when I heard it on a cassette tape in my step-dad's truck. (And just remembering how all of that unfolded makes me nostalgic for the pre-internet days where you couldn't just Google something). Upon figuring this out, I immediately went out and bought Point of Know Return and played that song endlessly until I got bored of it.
Dust in the Wind now ranks up there with Zeppelin's Stairway to Heaven as a song that makes me cringe every time I hear it on the radio because of how overplayed they are still to this day.
....
YouTube's got it.
Her name was Tessa. His name was Duncan.
