I have found that TV dramas that will kill off main characters are the best ones, because you never see it coming. As we are part way into season four, I tried to come up with a way to survive, since about 32 people die every episode.
– Don’t trust anyone. If you think you can trust someone, kill them immediately, they are planning to kill you.
– Don’t let anyone know who you are, run into mercenaries, insult anyone or make any waves. Be neutral and stay out of the way. Unless you are weak, then you’re still going to get killed.
– Don’t have a wedding under any circumstance.
– Stay away from Lannisters, especially if you’re a dwarf, a Stark, a sailor, from the North…you get the picture.
– Don’t own slaves, they will kill you.
– Don’t slap your sister in front of her barbarian warrior husband, unless drinking molten metal doesn’t bother you.
– Don’t talk shit to a woman with dragons.
Follow all these and you will probably live seven minutes longer than the average character on Game of Thrones. Good luck.
Well put.
