Grey's Anatomy has stood out for its mix of drama and comedy but also because of how badly it tends to handle its characters' departures, often opting for killing them, and out of all the characters who have died in the series, creator Shonda Rhimes only regrets killing one of them – and it isn't a main character. Led by Meredith Grey (Ellen Pompeo), Grey's Anatomy follows the lives of surgical interns, residents, and attendings at Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital (originally Seattle Grace Hospitals) as they do their best to juggle their personal and professional lives, making way for a lot of drama inside and outside the hospital.
In over more than 15 seasons, Grey's Anatomy has seen countless tragedies, both with the doctors' patients and in their personal lives, though some events have affected the characters' professional and personal lives. Meredith and company have seen many people die, of which some quickly won the audience over with their charm but were never meant to last long. Falling into that category is Dylan Young, played by Kyle Chandler, who appeared in only two episodes and had a tragic ending – and Shonda Rhimes regrets giving him a heartbreaking fate.
Dylan Young was a leading member of the Seattle Police Department Bomb Squad, and he made his debut in Grey's Anatomy season 2's episode "It's The End of the World". In it, a patient arrives but one of the paramedics, Hannah (Christina Ricci), has her hand inside the patient's body, as according to her, that was the only way to stop the bleeding.
