Note: Spoilers for "Game of Thrones" ahead.
The death toll has been rising exponentially on the current season of "Game of Thrones." That's a necessary evil as the show winnows down the contenders for the Iron Throne.
But that doesn't mean that fans have become numb to the casualties. Each death still inspires stunned reactions from fans and drives a huge amount of colorful commentary on social media.
Viewers are still reeling from the events that led up to Hodor's (Kristian Nairn) death and the origin of his name in Sunday's episode. Plus fans kept the conversation going through the break between seasons five and six after Jon Snow (Kit Harrington) bled to death in the snow. And don't get us started on the intense emotions experienced when one beloved Stark after another fell during "The Red Wedding."
While there are certainly more losses to come, there are many we could never forget.
Take a look at the biggest deaths on "Game of Thrones" below.
