      Indeed https://twitter.com/sunnysingh_nw3/status/738111552092577792 … the trend is getting overdone/undercooked (but don't reverse it before shooting the Wheel of Time series :p)

      TV is killing off so many characters that death is losing its punch http://www.vox.com/2016/6/1/11669730/tv-deaths-character-best?utm_campaign=vox&utm_content=feature%3Afixed&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter … good read this. And not just for TV

      lol...though am tired of it. It's what I tell my students: Killing isn't easy so don't use it as a sloppy plot device :-)

      I totally agree, and hope Wheel benefits from the mistakes of GoT & it's imitators. But it's got a ton of deaths as well

      I don't have problem with screen deaths as long as they actually have a meaning. Just find gratuitous ones boring

      after GoT, the trend's ripe for creative dissection (pardon the pun). Some sterling examples have crept up in TV too, though

          some more examples for that class http://io9.gizmodo.com/5049753/12-weakest-deaths-in-science-fiction-history … bummed out by being reminded of how they offed Hicks & Kat

          not to spoil anything but Black Sails S3 featured a strong counter-example (say, 9/10 Neds) that gut-punched the audience
