During a montage celebrating several shows that aired their series finales this year, The Emmy Awards spoiled many surprise endings.

Bad news for people who like television enough to watch the Emmy Awards, but not enough to watch shows in real time: the awards show just spoiled almost every show that ended over the last year.

EMMYS 2015: The Complete Winners List

Sunday’s Emmy broadcast featured a montage to celebrate shows that aired their series finales in the last year, which included clips that spoiled major moments from the final moments of Boardwalk Empire, Nurse Jackie, True Blood, Sons of Anarchy and Parenthood -- some of which included some major character deaths.

Needless to say, the internet was not pleased.

Guess I can go ahead and delete my queue now that I know how every show ends. Thanks @TheEmmys #spoileralert

If you're catching up on Mad Men, Boardwalk Empire, or any show that ended this season, I hope you're not watching the Emmys. #SpoilerAlert
