In a shocking turn of events that fans didn’t expect, Grey’s Anatomy killed off long-time fave Dr. McDreamy.

The popular ABC drama brought social media to a screeching halt when, after 11 seasons, Patrick Dempsey’s character, Dr. Derek Shepherd, was killed off after being involved in a car accident.

Grey’s” creator, Shonda Rhimes had this to say about her decision and admiration for departing cast member Dempsey:

“Derek Shepherd is and will always be an incredibly important character – for Meredith, for me and for the fans.  I absolutely never imagined saying goodbye to our “McDreamy.” Patrick Dempsey’s performance shaped Derek in a way that I know we both hope became a meaningful example – happy, sad, romantic, painful and always true – of what young women should demand from modern love.  His loss will be felt by all.   Now, Meredith and the entire ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ family are about to enter uncharted territory as we head into this new chapter of her life.  The possibilities for what may come are endless. As Ellis Grey would say: the carousel never stops turning.”

As expected, the Internet lit up with tweets, posts and comments about the shocker. Many people weren’t too happy with Shonda Rhimes. Plenty of fans tweeted about their feelings:

Grey’s Anatomy has messed with my emotions too much idk if I can watch it anymore

Grey’s Anatomy has made me an emotional wreck and it’s only been on for 5 mins.
