Game of thrones basically checked twitter which characters are fan favourites and the popular ones get the most plot armour. Which is super funny for a show that became famous for killing off characters.
I lost interest in the show the second they brought back ppl from the dead.
The bringing back wasn't the problem, it's what they did with them once they were back. It should mean something, and not dull down the character.
I think bringing back is the problem because at that point we establish that not even death is permanent
Yes, but with others coming back has a cost. Beric Dondarrion is the first in mind, who loses memory each time he's brought back, and in the book presents the idea that remaining alive requires some life force that runs out even with the resurrected (based on what happens).
Of course none of this happens to Jon...well, maybe it does, as would explain why he acts so out of character as things close. He must have died again in the final seasons off screen.
