Talk:List of 1000 Ways to Die episodes

Way to Die #256

I saw a death from a German-dubbed episode on YouTube. It involved a new colt member who was to be initiated into a fellowship. As soon as she got into an alligator-infested river, she is eaten alive, and the colt leader says that she is with God now. How come I can't find it in the English episodes?

It translates to "Godsend-Away", do you think we should put it on the site? My German friend translated it for me, and even know where it took place and all that. it would be like this,

Death #	"Event" Name	Date of Death	Location	Circumstances of Death
256	Godsend-Away	January 12, 2003	Los Angeles, California	A new woman is joining a cult is told to go and dive into a lake as part of the initiation, however, the woman is in alligator infested waters (Which the cult leader knew about), an alligator then proceeds to eat her alive.

Trivia

Some death numbers were used more than once The title, Wet Dream, was used twice. 174.95.64.53 (talk) 00:17, 3 February 2011 (UTC)asdf

Protection

Isn't it about time this page got protected from anyone that doesn't have an account? People just keep putting on deaths on episodes that haven't even aired yet. Deaths that haven't been aired either on TV or on the website are just put on there. It's ridiculous. --Geekboy6 (talk) 20:02, 15 February 2011 (UTC)

I agree, they keep putting up deaths, that are related, but not true. --I'm Obviously A Guy Who does things around here! (talk) 23:26, 15 February 2011 (UTC)

The best solution to this is to alert an Wikipedia administrator about it. In the meantime, I think should make sure no deaths are entered untill they've been aired (and delete them if any deaths real or fake are put in before then - unless confirmed and verified with linked proof).--Halls4521 (talk) 23:36, 18 February 2011 (UTC)

I am gonna put up the "Asphyxi-Asian" Death up, though. --I'm Obviously A Guy Who does things around here! (talk) 15:18, 19 February 2011 (UTC)

Dear TheGuyWhoDoesThings I will put a stop to everybody who puts deaths that haven't been aired either on TV or ridiculous deaths. I will try my best. And 1 last thing leave deaths that are on spike website. Ok? I'm one of your stoppers. from Twinmill95. p.s. Because i don't like when people put up deaths that are fake. or not yet aired. Go to my Talk page if you have any ?'s.

Real life segments

The first 12 episodes did have real life segments in them. Should we go ahead and include them on the list or leave them off?--Halls4521 (talk) 07:19, 27 February 2011 (UTC)

Episode 4, #97

The article points to the death being based on Godwin, however it links to the Wiki-related Godwin. Possibly needs sourced or vandalism. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.168.185.243 (talk) 04:43, 5 March 2011 (UTC)

way to die# 555

The location should really say Los Angeles, California because notice the L.A Skyline behind them when they exit the building.

Notes on real-life inspirations.

Why were all the notes on possible real or fictional incidents that served as an inspiration for different deaths on the show blown away in one blanket edit, while several similar notes (such as those for "Bad Max") are still remaining?

It's a subject of significant interest to many fans of the show, and there's no authoritative source on it other than the show's research team who, as far as I know, do not disclose that info. Considering the levels to which the show changes and embellishes different deaths or even urban legends and non-lethal incidents, is it inappropriate to mention real-life stories that plausibly mimic the key elements of a given death on the show as long as sources are appropriately cited? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.234.216.130 (talk) 16:23, 24 March 2011 (UTC)

I personally don't think fictional deaths count. So I remove things like, (Based on a death in the Final Destination), and so forth. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TheGuyWhoDoesThings (talk • contribs) 06:26, 7 April 2011 (UTC)

Unless they are actually attributed to a reliable source, we should not be speculating on the potential inspirations. WP:NOR. --Onorem♠Dil 13:22, 2 August 2011 (UTC)

Update

New episode aired last night. Someone update Stupid Is as Death Does. 72.70.203.28 (talk) 12:10, 30 March 2011 (UTC)

That's "Mister Death" To You

Why were all the deaths erased? Those deaths have actually happened in that episode. Somehow, amazon.com had that episode for sale at $1.99. Those deaths are in that order: 275-Any Given Gunday, 592-Descent of a Woman, 646-Scarf-Face, 174-Dog Dead Afternoon, 213 Crappy Ending, 439-Chain Gang Banged, and 715-Withdrawn. --Geekboy6 (talk) 00:09, 10 April 2011 (UTC)

The reason they have it is because amazon gets them when they are supposed to air, now amazon will be a week ahead. --I'm Obviously A Guy Who does things around here! (talk) 20:40, 11 April 2011 (UTC)

Exactly. Someone previously deleted a similar table and said to wait until the episode aired, so I figured I'd do the same. Yes, it was me.--The Ultimate Koopa (talk) 00:19, 14 April 2011 (UTC)

Did this episode even air yet? :O 72.70.203.28 (talk) 15:26, 27 April 2011 (UTC)

The episode is currently on sale at amazon.com in case you want to know. http://www.amazon.com/Thats-Mister-Death-To-You/dp/B004VFSGN8/ref=sr_1_3?s=digital-video&ie=UTF8&qid=1304347854&sr=1-3 --Geekboy6 (talk) 14:52, 2 May 2011 (UTC)

So...

the next episode is on a Tuesday, and the ones after on a Friday?--The Ultimate Koopa (talk) 16:48, 24 April 2011 (UTC)

Is bored!

When are the next episodes coming out? 71.161.247.227 (talk) 17:07, 26 May 2011 (UTC)

I'm afraid that you will have to wait until Spike announces the next episode. Your comments are somewhat forum-related, so I don't think it is appreciated by most of the users. JMBZ-12 (talk) 17:39, 26 May 2011 (UTC)

The thing that's really annoying is that episodes were supposed to have aired, but haven't. For example, someone downloaded a section involving a pitball that should have aired last month and uploaded it to YouTube--The Ultimate Koopa (talk) 23:07, 27 May 2011 (UTC)

Is this show canceled or ended or something? It's been almost four months! 99.117.17.35 (talk) 19:41, 27 June 2011 (UTC)

Actually, Spike TV has made an announcement that new episodes will be aired, starting next month; specifically, July 11. JMBZ-12 (talk) 23:21, 27 June 2011 (UTC)

FINALLYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D THANK YOU SPIKE!!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.70.220.60 (talk) 22:28, 5 July 2011 (UTC)

Sir William Skeffington

Death #888 mentions the invention of the Scavenger's Daughter in 1581 by Sir William Skeffington. However, by 1581, Sir William had been dead 56 years and it is more likely that his son, Sir Leonard Skeffington, who did invent the Scavanger's Daughter is the man who this story is based on.

Protection

Will someone get this page protected from non Wikipedia members already? Someone just vandalized this page again, editing the title of the last episode and the first death on that episode. I am sick and tired of seeing deaths that are made up and have not actually aired on this show. --Geekboy6 (talk) 17:20, 15 August 2011 (UTC)

Vandalism to Article: Misalignment starting in Season 2

Has anybody looked at this article recently? The table for Season 1 appears fine, however, once you get down to Season 2 (Episode 202), the table is centered on the screen so I have to scroll right just to read it. It also appears nested like a Russian Doll.

It appears that someone has attempted to make changes to the article, but didn't know what they were doing. The article needs to be fixed so that everything is back on the same page.
Christopher, Salem, OR (talk) 20:32, 2 October 2011 (UTC)

I'm not going to revert nearly all of the unaired episodes; I've grown tired and weary letting anon IP users know that most of the episodes have yet to be aired, but since they seem to pay little attention, someone has to notify an administrator to put an end to their shenanigans by adding unaired and unsourced episodes and even protect the main article. JMBZ-12 (talk) 19:20, 4 October 2011 (UTC)

Season 3

According to Spike's official episode listing we are still on season 3 so I have changed the listing here to reflect thatr.Novadestin (talk) 17:45, 8 October 2011 (UTC)

2 Things

1 episodes 47 until now is season 3 not 4 because, if there would have season 4 they would give us the premiere clip to season 4. and no premiere clip. It's still considered season 3, even if an episode was not aired in months. And there is supposed to be a season 4 in march 2012. 2. Use this link http://www.tvguide.com/tvshows/1000-ways-to-die/episodes/305955 for episodes listings. So in other words put the future episodes titles back.

Re: Season 3 & 2 Things

I think that Episode 61 is actually the beginning of Season 5. There was a promo for the episode "The One About Dumb People Dying" which I believe accounted as the promo for Season 4. Another one has been airing this week which I believe is the promo for Season 5. Also, I've been keeping up with Spike.com and I was the original poster of most of the episodes on here, and I've noticed something. Many people keep deleting legitimate content. Also, the schedule can be viewed on their website and spans up to two weeks, however it can be extended to the next month by editing the date on the URL. Just wondering if it would be logical to redefine the season borders since new seasons don't always switch production code numbers.

Deaths based on real life deaths

Are you guys no longer stating certain some of the deaths that actually happened in real life? I was about to mention that the food critic's death in the episode Die-Abestic is based on the death of novelist Sherwood Anderson. Then I just recently checked this page and all of the deaths based on real life no longer mention that fact. (Ex: Bad Max is based on the death of Abigail Taylor.) --Geekboy6 (talk) 21:35, 3 February 2012 (UTC)

hy in the List is a mistake:

Episode 42: Grave Errors

Story 1 is not #786. It is #876.

Death #215

When I saw that episode, I recall that the allergic reaction caused the girl to faint and fall onto a stove, which also contributed to her death. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Checkmatechamp137 (talk • contribs) 05:28, 24 February 2012 (UTC)

Not really, she died from the allergy. The stove probably hurt her a bit, but her body was already in too much shock to realize it. - Sherlip

Split Article

Split This article should be split. One article per season, then one article per year in Season 3.--Jax 0677 (talk) 18:49, 3 March 2012 (UTC)

I Partially Agree

I don't think it should be split, but I like your labeling system. I think it should be divided by when the show went on and off hiatus, or when there were major changes in formatting (between Episodes 38 and 39, Episodes 46 and 47, episodes 54 and 55, and episodes 60 and 61. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sherlip (talk • contribs) 02:03, 7 March 2012 (UTC)

Comment The article is becoming quite long, and we may want to split it for that very reason.--Jax 0677 (talk) 17:25, 7 March 2012 (UTC)
