12 Ridiculous Ways TV Characters Were Brought Back From The Dead

6. I Survived An Attack By Mutant Turkeys, Having My Arms Ripped Off By Cattle And Being Run Over By The Fonz €“ Kenny (South Park)

Ridiculous and acceptable in equal measure, looking forward to the next elaborate death of Kenny Mccormick was part of the charm of the early seasons of South Park. They may seem tame compared to recent years, but there was still plenty to laugh about...whether you should have or not! 'Oh my God they killed Kenny! You bastards!' was a phrase quoted week after week as the kid in the orange parka met his maker and the following week he was back in the group, unaware that death was going to come calling any minute. It's a ridiculous concept, taking the reset button mentality of shows like The Simpsons and throwing it into overdrive. And they sure were fun to watch! Here's just a few of the best as a taster... Knocked into a microwave oven with a chair and cooked by a mutant clone of Stan. Crushed by the MIR Space Station at the beginning of the episode. Revived as a zombie via Worcestershire sauce embalming. Head explodes due to the intensity of a planetarium demonstration when Stan and Kyle examine the control booth. Trampled in a mosh pit in Cartman's tree house. Ozzy Osbourne bites his head off. Destroyed by a snow speeder while wearing an ED-209 costume His insides explode due to the pressure buildup from a tampon stuck in his anus. Dies as a result of autoerotic asphyxiation, after choking himself with a belt while dressed as Batman upon the suggestion of a Center for Disease Control agent testing for sex addiction.
