Hate them for killing off my favorite character. (spoilers)

I've been with this show from the beginning, and since his first appearance in episode 1, Hecky Nash has been my favorite. I kept coming back to this show mainly to follow his adventures in Mob City (his stand-up career, his tumultuous relationship with Jasmine, that mixup with the IRS). I know I'm not alone when I say that he was a shining beacon of light in such a dark show. Now that he's gone, I don't know if I can keep watching. It took a lot of guts for the writers to kill off a major character like that, but seriously, who do they think they are? They obviously don't care about our feelings at all. Why couldn't Hecky have been the one character to have a happy ending? I mean sure, he did some bad stuff, but he had a good soul. Simon Pegg deserves an Emmy for his portrayal of Hecky, and I'm sure this will open up lots of doors for him in Hollywood.

I'm putting together a youtube video of all his best scenes in slow motion over a sad song. I'll post a link when it's done.

I assume since Hecky was only in one episode that you're being sarcastic and making fun of how people reacted to Richard Harrow's exit on Boardwalk Empire lol well played

but seriously show hasn't had enough episodes for me to pick out a favorite...for now I'm gonna go with Sid though...that scene with him pretending to a waiter to kill those two guys was great

Sid is would also be my favorite. But Robert Knepper has that effect when he's in T.V. He's actually the first reason I stumbled upon this show.
