Rest In Peace to Mike from Desperate Housewives.

Do you remember when Mike died from Desperate Housewives? How about when you found that Gossip Girl was in fact, Dan Humphrey? Or when Wes was killed off How To Get Away With Murder? And the brief period of time when Rachel and Joey from Friends tried to be a thing, ew.

A thread on Twitter is going viral after asking this simple but controversial question: “If you could erase any storyline from these TV Shows/Movies, which storyline would you get rid of?”

Nothing can replace our favourite TV show, but we can all admit there were a few storylines that should have never made it to our screens.

But I guess that’s what also makes these shows brilliant – some of these stories were insane but we still loved these TV shows either way.

The thread is causing a few debates but nevertheless, it’s reminding us why these TV shows still hold a special place in our hearts. Here are the storylines we wish never happened.

Desperate Housewives

Gaby’s baby being switched at birth, I just can’t stand that storyline https://t.co/mkF5DaIxtt

Sex And The City

Carrie shouldn’t of ended up with Big. IRL that wouldn’t of happened. The show should’ve ended with the message that your girlfriends are all that really matter tbh. https://t.co/K6Razf05t2

Making us watch 6 seasons and 2 movies just to kill off the love of her life was CRAZY https://t.co/QAqleJECzH

They could have left Carrie in France and went on with the three of them. They had better things going on. https://t.co/RHdebt3vJ5

Jane ending up with Rafael. TEAM MICHAEL. https://t.co/oG51LLphFn

Michael coming back as a farmer with amnesia? Idk that didn’t make any sense. I think his death was a bittersweet and it should’ve been left alone. Also I hated Jane with Rafael he treated her terribly and always got away with it bc he had a pretty face. https://t.co/FvOMRqBQJs
