Winter TV Spoilers!

The Winter months give us TV lovers more shows to tune into and also this is the time some of our favorites return from the December hiatus. Here are some spoilers to get you ready for the upcoming fresh episodes.

Penny gets a small role on NCIS, which eventually gets cut on The Big Bang Theory. The devastation causes her to rethink being an actress and also second guess her relationship with Leonard. Also, Amy finds out that Burt is her secret admirer.

Top 5 Characters Most Likely to Die in 2014

Now that the December hiatus is behind us, TV should be back in full swing within the next few weeks. With new episodes of your favorite shows comes death of the characters your love and the ones that are so much fun to hate. With the help of TV Line, I have complied a list of the five characters most likely to meet their demise in 2014.

5. Katherine, The Vampire Diaries - Once she became human, she began to age rapidly. This will surely end in her dying before 2015 begins!

4. Gemma, Sons of Anarchy - When Jax finds out that his mother killed his wife, her days are sure to be numbered.

3. Happy, Once Upon a Time - Michael Coleman who portrays the dwarf took to Twitter to voice his disgust of a recent relationship on the show. A showrunner was not amused, so Happy might not be happy for much longer.

2. Lamar, Nashville - The fall finale showed either Will or Peggy potentially meeting their maker, but Rayna's father is ill and his storyline has been getting more boring as the weeks progress.

1. Fiona, American Horror Story - She keeps getting closer to death's door with every new episode. It would only make sense if she died when the show wraps up for the season.
