Buffy The Vampire Slayer: Ranking Every Major Death Worst To Best

Having just killed Tara, Warren Mears - big-time villain, misogynist, sociopath and irredeemable blot - found himself hunted by Dark Willow. Though he did a surprisingly good job of staying away from her, Willow eventually found Mears and proceeded to torture him, sewing his mouth shut and driving a bullet into his chest as slowly as possible.

As brutal as it was to see, no fan had ever felt bad for Warren Mears, and seeing him flayed alive was a worthy, satisfactory end for him.

So satisfying Warren's death is, in fact, that it could have been #1 on this list if we didn't have to see Willow do the act and fully commit to her new, vengeful ways.
