When a major character died in ABC’s “Grey’s Anatomy” Season 11, Michael Weatherly shared his thoughts on Twitter. But first, he asked his followers what they thought about it. The responses he got expressed disappointment over the lead star’s death.

Patrick Dempsey’s Derek Shepherd had been in “Grey’s Anatomy” from the pilot episode. He dies in one of the final episodes of Season 11. Weatherly, who plays Tony DiNozzo in “NCIS,” has also been in the show since Day 1. There were rumours that Weatherly is set to leave “NCIS,” but it was never proven. In fact, Weatherly is set to appear in “NCIS: Los Angeles” Season 6.

Weatherly said there was something “passive aggressive” about how Dempsey’s character died. See his tweets below.

Meanwhile, in the last two episodes of “NCIS” Season 12, death is an expected development. Show boss Gary Glasberg described the “loss” as a trigger for big moments in the long-running procedural drama.

“We will suffer a very significant loss,” Glasberg told TV Line in an interview. This loss will lead to “a big Gibbs (Mark Harmon) moment,” he added.

Tim McGee (Sean Murray) and Ned Dorneget (Matt Jones) go to Cairo, Egypt in the final episodes of “NCIS” Season 12. In forum sites and various comment sections, some fans are betting Dorneget is set to die.

There is also some level of hope among fans of Tony and Ziva (Cote de Pablo); they are thinking the “loss” or death in the next episodes will pave the way for Ziva David’s return. Glasberg himself has spoken to TV Guide about the “return of some very familiar faces.”

The penultimate episode of “NCIS” Season 12 will air this Tuesday, May 5, on CBS. The finale episode airs May 12.
