Sons of Anarchy fans are still reeling after Tuesday night's heart-shattering season finale, in which [Spoiler Alert!] Tara (Maggie Siff) was killed off the show. Anyone else still picking up the pieces and finding it hard to go about your day? We. Feel. You.

SOA boss Kurt Sutter revealed he knew "as early as season two" that Tara "would die before the final season," adding, "I didn't quite know exactly, obviously, how it was going to happen in terms of story. I just knew in terms of a mythology mile marker that that's when it was going to happen."

And even though fans also might have had an inkling that the Jax-Tara story would not end well, the way in which it all went down has rocked us.

But is Tara's death the biggest TV death in recent history?

What about Game of Thrones' Red Wedding? The Walking Dead's worst C-section of all Time, Lori? And the emotional torment that was Denny on Grey's Anatomy?
