In The Big Bang Theory, an old TV science show idol, Professor Proton, dies and the guys, especially Sheldon, mourn him. Recently, the actress doing Howard Wolowitz' mother's voice died, and they let her character die. In neither case is the death comedic (except that Professor Proton returns to Sheldon as a kind of Jedi apparition). But then again, The Big Bang Theory since the third season or so, seems to be more about therapy for Chuck Lorre than about being funny anyways.
