You'll Never Recover from These Seriously Devastating TV Character Deaths

Adriana La Cerva in The Sopranos

Her inevitable expiration date ended up being just as disturbing and heartbreaking as one would expect. Once Christopher (Michael Imperioli) found out about Adriana’s critical misstep, he had no choice but to tell Tony—but the atrocity of her death was heightened by briefly allowing the audience a glimpse of what Adriana’s getaway could have looked like before Silvio brutally gunned her down in the woods.
