They Killed Kenny Again / Web Original

• The Amazing Digital Circus: Caine pops Bubble multiple times in the pilot, and he comes back each time.
• The entire main cast of Happy Tree Friends, though Splendid, Cro-Marmot, Flippy/Fliqpy and Mr. Pickels die less often than the rest, with the first one only dying on-screen once. Cuddles has just barely died the most times, with Lumpy at a close second. Of course, this is mostly because they're the characters that appear the most.
• Phelous often dies at the end of his reviews.
  • This running gag stopped for awhile after doing a Doctor Who parody for an April Fools joke, where he "regenerated" into a "new Phelous" and then became himself again. He almost never dies by the end of the episode unless he lampshades it.
  • He does this again for To Boldly Flee, with actual "in-story" reason: he is a Red Shirt. Whenever a redshirt is killed, there is always one more just like it (although usually with a different name) waiting in the ship. He is their only redshirt. Thus, whenever he is killed, there is suddenly another Phelous waiting in the ship. Or, to put it another way, he's running simultaneously on Original Series rules (the Red Shirt trope) and Next Generation rules (in which red shirts are important characters).
• Masaya in Tokyo Mew Mew in a Nutshell.
• Samario, from DAOA. He dies in one episode and then appears in the next without any explanation. Justified, since Samario is a villi OC from VVVVVV.
• At least one member of the Teen Girl Squad dies comically at the end of almost every issue^note The exceptions being 2, 3, and 6, only to return without explanation between issues.
• The Spelunker in the Michael Quest flash series by Sikamako.
• John & Richie animations do this pretty often with John.
• Red vs. Blue:
  • After Church was killed by Caboose with the tank in Season 1 and coming back as a ghost capable of possessing bodies, he frequent found himself getting shot or killed in other ways, usually by Caboose. Thankfully, he mostly inhabited robots, and it was played for laughs, although there was the odd serious instance.
  Grif: "Church's died more times than Jean Grey. It's getting old."
  • The Battle Creek Grunts. They exist to lampshade almost every multiplayer FPS trope, including respawning at the end of a match.
  • Lopez gets blown up/shot/crushed/reduced to a head at least once whenever he shows up. As a robot, he's rather easy to repair, and he anticipates this enough to make backups of himself whenever he's placed in a dangerous situation.
• In Dinosaur Office, any time the Intern appears, Terry (a tyrannosaurus and their boss) eats him not long afterwards.
• As a reference to her counterpart Aerith's death, the character Aeromite from the Kingdom Hearts parody Kingdom Paf gets killed several times in gruesome ways, only to ALWAYS come back alive a few minutes later.
• Joe in Ted Crusty's videos.
• The Madgie, what did you do? series: Madgie is this or, occasionally, some of the stories has it where her fate is ambiguous but in most of them has it that she dies, often in horrible ways, ever since the second story to the rest. She gets better once time is reversed back to the way it was.
  • Actually, ANYONE that dies in series is like this, however, Madgie dies the most. This should be noted that this isn't for comedy, rather, in the first instance, it was to make the story moe poignant.
• Icarus in Dragon Ball Z Abridged. After Goku mentioned him during his fight against Vegeta as a pet of Gohan's who died before the series even began, he has since reappeared alive and well in the Abridged Movies... where he has gained a tendency to get cooked and eaten by Gohan's family by the end of each movie.
• SCP Foundation:
  • Justified with Dr. Bright, who uses SCP-963, which transfers his consciousness to the next living thing to touch it. That said, Dr. Bright's original body is long dead, and so are lots of replacement bodies.
  • Research Assistant Renfield dies often, too. Here, she wakes up at 9:00, dies at 10:19, and has a new clone body at 11:00.
  • Connor from the fan series Confinement is a human SCP used like a D-class test subject, who is revealed in the first episode to have Resurrective Immortality after SCP-082 bites his head off. Connor ends up dying at least Once an Episode.
• In canon, Kyubey of Puella Magi Madoka Magica gets "killed" repeatedly in non-joking situations, since he's implied to be a Hive Mind who can just activate a new body when the old one gets too damaged, but fanworks often upgrade it into this territory, because everybody hates Kyubey, especially in the infamous Danbooru image pool.
• Death Note: The Abridged Series (kpts4tv) does this to L.
• Todd in the Shadows tried to make a running gag out of being Driven to Suicide, but dropped it after the second instance. Not before having a chance to lampshade it, though: "Once again, my faith in pop music has been destroyed, which means that once again, it's time to kill myself."
• A justified example in Flander's Company: villain-wannabe Kevin is explicitly stated to have the ability to resurrect each time he is killed; sadly for him, he also has the ability to piss off Hippolyte, who takes advantage on this power to kill him as many times as he can in always more gruesome ways.
• Occupy Richie Rich states that Richie Rich's numerous stupid stunts often get him killed, and the immoral lab workers simply grow a new batch specifically for these instances.
• Black Kitty of Goodbye Kitty.
• Every YouTube Poop character has died at least once.
• The Angry Video Game Nerd has died a few times.
  • In "Dragon's Lair", he is turned into a skeleton when he touches the door.
  • In "Dracula", he commits suicide by exposing himself to the sun (he was a vampire in that episode).
  • In "Frankenstein", he gets killed by a TV explosion along with the Franken-Nerd.
  • In "Transformers", Optimus Prime shoots him with a laser.
  • In "Bugs Bunny Crazy Castle", him and Woody Woodpecker are blown up by a bomb.
  • In "Alien 3", the Cinemassacre chainsaw logo bursts out of his chest while falling into a lava furnace.
  • In "Nintendo World Championships", he is possibly strangled to death by Pat the NES Punk.
  • In "Seaman for Dreamcast", he dies after playing the titular game for nearly a thousand years.
  • In "Mega Man Games", he jumps out the window after playing Mega Man Soccer.
• Thew's Awesome Transformers Reviews: Whenever a missile is fired, there is roughly a 100% chance that its target is the Captain Planet action figure. Several fans actually donated extra Captain Planet figures when Thew's original one broke during a move.
• Every episode of Muhammad's Boom Boom Room by Acts17Apologetics ends with Muhammad blowing himself up, along with his guest.
• The characters in SuperMarioLogan get killed on a semi-regular basis. This is even lampshaded by Mario in "Black Yoshi's Fried Chicken", after Chef Pee Pee is murdered and his remains are cooked into chicken nuggets.
  Mario: So many fans are going to think that he's not gonna be in the next video, but he really is!
• Dumb Ways to Die: Klaus in the "Countdown to Christmas" videos.
• Lord Tourettes from Dick Figures dies in most of his appearances.
• The Wise Sage from The Irate Gamer has died at least 3 times and spends most of the series as a ghost. A flashback from the "Contra" episode reveals that he died of a sickness during high school. In the "Aladdin" episode, they find a genie and he wishes to be alive again, however, he dies again five minutes later. He then uses his second wish to be brought back to life again, only to get crushed to death by a giant snake.
• Dawn Meadows, a reporter who gets killed off (and also ladders her pantyhose) in every story but is inevitably back for more punishment at the start of the next.
• The Black Knight from the French series Rémi le Radis dies in almost every episode he appears... And then comes back with the only explanation given being "You need more than that to kill me!".
• Oftentimes, "Grounded" videos made with GoAnimate end with multiple people, though especially the person being grounded, dead. Typically, though, the deceased characters tend to return alive and well with little explanation next time the plot of a video requires them to.
• Almost everyone in Madness Combat, except for the Sheriff.
• Pretty much the entire cast in Bionicle Adventures, sans Monkeydude.
• Several characters have died in RWBY Chibi - Ruby has accidentally hanged herself, and Jaune has drowned - but it never sticks. In an early episode, a character who is canonically dead in RWBY shows up alive to establish that nobody dies in the Chibi continuity.
• DSBT InsaniT: Balloon dies Once an Episode, but always comes back later on. Cody references this in 'The Camping Webisode":
  Cody: Is this guy gonna die in every episode?!
• Left POOR Dead: George Waitingtrose 'dies' in every episode in gradually more horrifying/awesome ways.
• The Nostalgia Critic has died in some of his skits. There is one episode that shows him being revived by Optimus Prime.
• The Misadventures of R2 and Miku near-always kills off one or both of the two title characters in every episode, then snaps back at the start of the next. One episode lampshades it when, after an Ambiguous Clone Ending leaves Miku a bit shaken about the prospect of her original self dying, she realizes that she's died twice prior at that point.
• SMG4 uses this as Rule of Funny, with characters dying or getting killed in many ways, only to be resurrected in the next video or sometimes in the next scene. One example happens in "Boo Busters", when Mario eats a poisoned mushroom, which ends up killing him by intoxication, and ends up coming back as a Boo. In that same video, Princess Daisy is crushed to death at the end, and yet they both appear alive in their respective subsequent appearances. However, this began to be downplayed after the series switched to dramedy, as SMG4 videos began to feature permanent deaths that aren't Played for Laughs.
  • The Spin-off series SMG4 Crew takes things further with Mario frequently dying in reaction to cringe memes, frustrating gameplay segments or his own stupidity but then starting the next clip as if nothing happened.
• The Magic: The Gathering fan YouTube channel Tolarian Community College occasionally does skits with The Professor seeing one or more characters from the game in his office, many of which involve him dying at the end. Death by Liliana, death by dinosaur, death by Phyrexian oil, death by Gruul raiders, death by debt to Teysa...
• The Demented Cartoon Movie, where the entire Earth is destroyed fifteen times.
• Poppa Peg, a parody of Peppa Pig by mexican webcartoonist Negas has the titular character getting killed at the end of each episode (ocasionally other characters die as well), only to return alive and well in the following one.
• If the Emperor Had a Text-to-Speech Device: Vulkan has died 5 times onscreen and more have been referenced. He's a Perpetual, so dying tends to only last a couple of minutes and doesn't even ruin his mood.
• Most episodes of Best of the Worst have Rich Evans suffering some kind of injury or humiliation. It happens also to Mr. Plinkett (also played by Evans) in Half in the Bag but not nearly as often.
• In Half-Life but the AI is Self-Aware, while most of the Science Team survives life-threatening injuries with no explanation, Benrey is the only one to ever be confirmed as dead, and is killed multiple times by either the enemy, his teammates, or his own stupidity. Lampshaded at one point.
  Benrey: Oh, who killed me?
  Gordon: What? (looks around and spots the dead body of a guard across the room) Oh, that's you. You know, you've actually died a lot.
  Benrey: Really?
• And if you want the Object Show's constant deaths but sensitive to real blood, leave it to some living watermelon slice from a British toon to fulfill your biggesr desires. Melony from Object Overload is killed a lot, at least once per episode (though there, as of current, has been one episode where she survived all the way through). The reason she comes back not just in the next episode, but sometimes in the next scene, is because of the Doorway of Life, a door-based recovery center. In "Set in Stone", Crayon lampshades how much Melony dies.
  Crayon: Ugh- Ew! You need to, like, stop dying!
• In SMPEarth, the resident Butt-Monkey Icebomb has been killed by Deo over a hundred times, for no reason other than he thinks it's funny.
• In Part 3 of The Light of Courage, Eian is shown being repeatedly killed in various ways before coming back without explanation throughout the video's runtime. In order, he's accidentally hit by Link's sword when a giant lizard monster appears, gets eaten by said monster, gets cut in half by Link's sword when the protagonists confront Ganon and Majora's Mask, is shot with one of Link's sword beams while the hero's freaking out, and is one of the characters seen within the rock pile when Zelda is revealed to have survived the rock fall.
• Reddit user Poem_for_your_sprog has Little Timmy, a hapless youth who features in several poems, all of which end, "And Timmy fucking died."
• SMPLive: Whenever in the vicinity of Cooper, Joko tends to end up getting killed numerous times.
