>character has an emotional death scene
>they're back in the next episode to keep the status quo
Aside from South Park, I can not think of a single show which has ever treated death that lightly

>Character has died 12 times in the past
>THIS time it's different, we mean it!

Grim Adventures
I give Cisco's death from The Flash a pass because time travel, but fuck that hit hard. The moment "My name is Eobard Thawne" was said it was all golden.

Neither of these has ever had an "emotional" death scene. They were played as jokes
>>87970528
>character has an emotional memory loss scene
>back not even five minutes later
>>87970896
Did they really do that plot? Shameless ripoff of Video Ouija.

Did Hirsch ever say if stan coming back was forced on him by disney or something he did on his own volition?
>Character dies.
>Is replaced by a significantly more interesting character
>Public outcry causes him to be brought back via dues ex machina.
>New character is removed old character doesn't change at all.

Vinnie was a shit character and Brian was never intended to be permanently dead. It was a cheap publicity stunt that only lasted a couple of episodes. You're delusional if you think fan outcry/autism was enough for them to change their mind and write/voice/animate an entire episode undoing it. They always intended for Brian to come back, they even planted the time travel shit for that specific purpose
>>87972002
>write/voice/animate an entire episode
in 3 weeks, no less
Family guy is no south park when it comes to production time
>>87970528
>Character has an emotional death scene.
>Manages to stay dead for over a decade
>Get brought back for a half assed story line and no future develpoment
