I first read Game of Thrones about 20 years ago. My wife was in the room with me and I threw the book across the room. She asked what happened, but I couldn't really explain it. Many years later, we watched season 1 of Game of Thrones, and when Ned got the axe, I just pretended to throw a book across the room and she knew exactly why I did it.
The rules were changed when that happened. No one was safe. Who we THOUGHT were the main characters in book 1 weren't. Not even close, even the 2nd layer of characters weren't the main characters, for the most part.
