It’s so true and obvious lately I feel like. So many shows I watch and can pick up the patterns when a side character is about to get offed. Like a red shirt but via dialog instead of apparel lol

In episodic shows (crime, drama etc) it's also typically a give away if a role is played by a known actor.

Lately? That was a repeated meme every week on Lost.

It's a trend recently started by the ancient Greeks.

Stargate SG-1 was nerve wracking, worrying about Walter’s safety every time he showed up just a bit too much. I kept expecting him to bite it from some staff blasts through the gate or something.

Then the ‘Heroes’ episodes happened and blindsided me.
