10 TV Shows That Killed Off The Wrong Character

7. Professor Arturo - Sliders

Professor Arturo was the best character on cult show Sliders; he was cranky, pretentious and prone to complaining, yet he always had the best one-liners and was the voice of reason for the other characters.

While he may have been the glue that held everything together, actor John Rhys-Davies grew tired of the writers ripping off movies for their plotlines, and he asked to leave. So at the end of Season Three Arturo catches a bullet, with Sliders quickly dipping in quality from that moment on.

Who Should Have Died Instead: Rembrandt Brown.

Rembrandt somehow managed to be the only original cast member remaining when the show ended, having made the switch from comic relief to leading man.

The problem with this is that he was easily the weakest character, so if he€'d taken that bullet instead of Arturo there would have been far less complaints about it.
