10 TV Characters Who Died In 2020

10. The Handler - The Umbrella Academy

Though it very much seemed like The Handler (Kate Walsh) was done away with at the end of The Umbrella Academy's first season after Hazel (Cameron Britton) shot her in the head, she returned for season two courtesy of a bullet-deflecting metal plate in her noggin.

But her plan to get back on top was ultimately foiled in the second season finale, where The Handler found herself pumped with lead by Swedish assassin Axel (Kris Holden-Ried), who courtesy of timey-wimey shenanigans actually got to shoot her dead twice.

Couldn't have happened to a more charming Machiavellian schemer, really.

While it's possible she could return for season three, this felt pretty definite, and Kate Walsh herself believes that her tenure with the show is now over.
