10 Most Shocking TV Deaths Of 2016
6. Jackson Kenner (The Originals)
Jackson Kenner has always been a popular character on the CW’s
The Originals. The Vampire Diaries spinoff set in New Orleans has featured the werewolf
as one of the primary characters from the beginning of the series.
Jackson featured on the show as a cursed werewolf who stayed in wolf form and could only become human during the full moon. As the series progressed, he assumed leadership of the Crescent Wolf Pack and eventually married fellow werewolf Hayley. After reversing the curse, only to see it reinstated, Jackson and Hayley’s love story had its share of ups and downs.
During a brief moment of levity (while in human form), Jackson and Hayley were kidnapped by the Strix group and held hostage.
While chained up, Hayley and all of the viewers watched on in horror as Tristan de Martel pulls back Jackson’s head and literally rips his (and all of his fans’) heart out. Heartbroken fans could only sit stunned and horrified at the suddenness and brutality of Jackson’s final scene.
