TV Fans Were NOT Happy About How 'Kevin Can Wait' Handled Donna's Death
11/08/2017 03:15 pm EST
How It Was Addressed
At the beginning of the show, Kevin and his kids were talking about the the mail, and they noticed a letter addressed to Donna. It was a card from the gym saying that they missed her, to which Kevin replied, "So do I."
Later on, when Kevin's daughter was getting married, the two of them both noted that they wished Donna could have been there for the event.
Sadly, throughout the whole episode, those were the only two sentences uttered about the matriarch.
Despite the fact that they said she passed "over a year ago," they didn't seem to keep around her memory.
Disrespect?
Yes, Donna was a fictional character. And yes, the creative team behind a television show can do that with one of their characters.
However, most of the fans thought that the episode didn't show any respect to Donna in the way that the death was handled. They felt that something more should have been said about the incident.
The show didn't even address how she died, which many fans were waiting for.
Needless to say, they weren't happy.
Losing Interest
As mentioned earlier, most fans really enjoyed what Erinn Hayes brought to she show, claiming that she was their favorite part of the series.
Now, with no Donna and no official goodbye from the characters, many are bashing the show.
As if criticizing the series wasn't enough, a lot of fans are saying that they won't continue to watch. These folks are claiming that losing Donna was the last straw, and that they've had enough.
