How shocking can it be when they announce it a year before it airs?
Okay that's a fair point which means I should have explained myself better. The regeneration was signposted for a long while so that wasn't the shock part of it. It was the fact that after all the build up of the Master and the Time Lords return it ended up being lovable old Wilf that finally needed rescuing and that would start the whole process for The Doctor. Maybe even then it was not so much of a shock but more of a dawning realisation after The Doctor survives the final fight just before we hear the four knocks on the glass.
I stand corrected.

The man must be stopped.
Odd.. I keep forgetting about Jenny.
I was so
at Angel... err.... AngelusLt. Col. Blake was the first stunner I recall. Gary Burghoff said the crew had no idea, and when he read the lines, the stunned looked on everyone's faces weren't rehearsed.

Sheriff Lamb on "Veronica Mars" was a shocker.
Mrs. Landingham on "The West Wing", too. And the secret service guy (Mark Harmon played him) who was covering CJ.
Col. Henry Blake on MASH. That one broke my heart.
And yeah, Jenny, Joyce, Tara, Book and Wash, Wesley...

As big a Trekkie as I am, I've got to disagree with that one. It packed absolutely zero dramatic punch. They kill her early in the episode and you suspect she's not really dead ('cause it's Trek and they do these things) then it slowly settles in over the course of the episode which has nothing to do with Tasha so you're not really thinking about it and when they have her memorial service in the end you're just left to go, "oh, she's really dead? darn..."

Let me rest my eyes on the fleecy skies
and the cool, green hills of Earth.

Rahl, give me a bit and I'll try and compile that list for you and post it up. I'm crazy busy at work today (YAY!), so I'll have to sneak it in when I can.
