No, everyone does not die. Some people die, just enough to make you fear. And that's the difference, I think.
It is.
I talked to Marina in some rather squeeful threads a few days ago, and my personal remark was that finally, finally I'd found a media creation where the people I disliked died, and the ones I liked were exalted, paid close attention to. This is a terrible subjective view, I realise, but we can't help what we feel, and I adore Arya, Cersei, Tyrion, Littlefinger, Dany and Drogo so much more than the rest of them, and ah, they seem to matter, more and more; it's not just all about the emo angst of white guys. (Sure, we have Jon Snow, but there's also Sam, and there is his story's thread involving the White Walkers, which send pleasurable frissons of horror up and down my spine. And we have Jaime, but really, in all the ways that matter to me, Jaime isn't a tortured character at all: he's actually pretty simple in who he is and who he wants to be...with ;).

Ahem. Says this pure-tv-show fan!
