Adding an example.

Added DiffLines:

* Downplayed in one climax of ''Series/DeadliestWarrior'' -- we hear and see the gory results, but the actual process of [[spoiler:UsefulNotes/VladTheImpaler subjecting [[Literature/TheArtOfWarSunTzu Sun Tzu]] to [[ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice the reason why he got his name]]]] is obscured by the screen cutting to the countryside.

Added DiffLines:

* ''Series/HouseOfTheDragon'':
** When Daemon and the Goldcloaks are inflicting punishments on the criminals of Flea Bottom, the camera cuts away from one man whose hand is cut off and another whom Daemon beheads, and only shows the backside of a man who's being gelded.
** During the TraumaticCSection on Queen Aemma, the camera stays just shy of where the actual incisions are being made.

Added DiffLines:

* ''Series/{{The Sandman|2022}}'': Arc villain John Dee acquires a magical amulet that causes anybody who attacks him to explode into LudicrousGibs. The first time he uses it, the effect is shown in full, but subsequent uses are more discreet. For instance, when he's shot at in "[[Recap/TheSandman2022S01E04AHopeInHell A Hope in Hell]]", the camera cuts to the outside of the building and all the audience sees is a spray of blood splattering against the inside of the window, accompanied by a disquieting noise.

* ''Series/{{Forever}}''. Averted in a flashback when the camera shows [[spoiler:Abigail]] slitting her own throat and blood starting to pour out of the cut.

Added DiffLines:

* ''Series/BetterCallSaul'' has an example in the season 3 finale "Lantern", which is unusual since most of the show's deaths are graphically depicted. [[spoiler:A DrivenToSuicide Chuck kicks over a lantern and sits back waiting to be immolated.]] The show cuts away to the exterior of his house as the fire spreads, but doesn't show [[spoiler:the flames engulfing Chuck himself.]]

** "Recap/BuffyTheVampireSlayerS2E3SchoolHard": Spike shoves the Anointed One into a cage and hoists him into the sunlight. The camera cuts to Spike gloating, then to a shot of the cage with a little smoke (if the lighting allows you to see it).
