I....you know what, OP? I agree. I NEVER thought of it this way but it's true. I go through this cycle with a book or a movie or show - character I love dies, I am left reeling. (Sometimes I cry about it, but not always.) I wail at a friend about it, because chances are it was my favourite character who died. I pick up and finish the thing with a deep sadness attached to the ending. The thing then sticks with me forever.

Sometimes a death CAN feel cheap or obviously meant to manipulate the audience. Repeated exposure to Joss Whedon can make you anticipate his patterns and then you could very easily get cynical about it. However, if I said it doesn't always fucking work and always hurt and often in the end make the thing better, I would be lying.

So really, as much as I complain about this exact thing, I think you're right.
