Emma (Ross and Rachel's baby) in Friends. So boring.

Cassie71, Totally agree!
Also when Rachel from Cold Feet died. It took me ages to get over that!

Mick being sexually abused as a child in Eastenders was really tough to watch. I have a knot in my stomach thinking about it. I know it happens but it was very tough to watch and think about.

Last Tango in Halifax - when they killed heavily pregnant Kate off, a day after her wedding to Caroline. I so wanted those two to have a happy ending. Then Kate appeared as a ghost ... spoilt a great series for me.

@peoplearepeople

I gave up on Outlander before the last episode of series 5, because apparently it's impossible for any of the main characters to avoid being raped.

Jamie, Fergus, Ian, Brianna, Clare - one a series.

When Niamh in Ballykissangel had an affair with Sean Dillon. Just wouldn't have happened.

Silent Witness was one of my favourite programmes, until an extremely brutal rape scene in a prison toilet was suddenly portrayed. It was so unlike the usual storylines it caught me unawares. I had flashbacks for weeks, couldn't get the sounds out of my head.

Never watched it since.....just in case.

Glens death in the walking dead. That was too far for me.
Bennett’s death in ripper street.
The end of sons of anarchy.
Any scene with Oliver in the OC.
I stopped watching the soaps a long time ago.

The stupid dead baby swap in EastEnders. Stopped watching after that. Also going back years ago the. Dallas Bobby wasn't dead but in shower

LadyEloise · 15/02/2021 09:53

When someone from Eastenders went to Ireland years and years ago. I can't remember why.
It was real "stage Irishy", begorrah and pigs in the parlour stuff.
Horrible.
Stopped watching then.

@Clawdy

I was a real Eastenders fan years ago, and I particularly loved the storyline where Billy and Little Mo got together at last after her dreadful abusive relationship with her husband. There was a lovely period where they were both so happy. Couldn't last of course. I read that a storyline was being developed where Little Mo would be raped by a stranger. So I stopped watching one of my favourite programmes, before the story began, and I've never seen it since.
That's when I stopped watching too and never watched it since

@LyraSilvertongueBelacqua

Gary Lucy's character being raped in Hollyoaks.
In fairness, this was the 90's and male sexual assault had never been done on TV - and was rarely since. Holly oaks was always very good at going where no other TV show dared.

@Peoplearepeople do we know each other?! Rice crispie disease was exactly what I always called it!

I vote the end of Dexter. Or really where Deb was in love with him onwards.

Grey's Anatomy - Alex Karev moving to the farm to be with Izzy! Coupled with the fact that they clearly had to use different actors to be the back of them in scenes.. Sad

JustDanceAddict · 16/02/2021 17:22

I also stopped watching Corrie after Phelan - shame as I’d watched it on and off my whole life!

Standrewsschool · 16/02/2021 20:35

@CoffeeandLotsofCake

The ending of How I Met your Mother. Spoilt what was a good series. Can't bare to watch any of it now.
Yes, I agree.

And me. I've never watched a single episode since, and I was the biggest Corrie fan ever.

kaleishorrid · 16/02/2021 23:10

@Bloodypunkrockers

Mine was Phelan on corrie

I stopped watching after that

Me too - haven't watched it since

@bonfireheart

Robert sleeping with Rebecca in Emmerdale.
Seconded Bonfire. She had been sexually harassing him for ages and then heard he was drunk and in a bad way and went round there to take her opportunity. It was disgusting and if a man had done that there would have been uproar.

Landry committing murder in Friday Night Lights. Mars an otherwise perfect show.
