Lee, the whole Kenny family and Ben. I already kinda thought Carley/Doug would die, especially when the Carley romance came up. Take ME for example: in the first game, you have to choose between 2 people to save. In the second, they almost don't appear. In the third, they have the exact same "events" and can even end up dead. Sound familiar?

Ben. I thought he would die in the first episode of season 2 at least. Or join a different group of survivors.

I'm surprised that people didn't expect Carley/Doug's death. From episode 1 I assumed the character(s) would die in episode 3 right away. It would have been difficult to branch their interaction and story otherwise. O_o (Given the episodic structure and maintaining release dates.)

Well to be honest, it was Lee. I mean that escalated VERY quickly. He was basically dead in a second. After episode 4 was over, I thought the whole biting was genius. It made Episode 5 much more intense.
The other one would be Katjaa. I didn't expect that.

Molly is left to the walkers if you fail to save her(If you didn't bring Clem). It's kind of like Kenny, we see him surrounded by walkers but we don't see him die.

If you try to talk to Jolene Danny shoots her in the middle of her talking, which could be shocking. Travis and David turn into walkers pretty much immediately and grab Katjaa.

If you try to get Irene to not commit suicide, Lee will try to talk her down, it looks like she is considering it but then abruptly shoots herself.

Doug definitely. He wasn't even a target for Lily, so it was that much more surprising when he died. Carly not really since she was held in place by a walker and killed.

I honestly don't think Molly died there, looked like she ran.

Carley's was the most shocking, by far.

Lee's death wasn't surprising, but it was rather sad

Kirkman I believe once said he would kill Rick off sooner or later, as Kirkman loves killing main characters and characters alike.

So I was expecting Lee to die like I know how to talk.

I was surprised with Ben, Carley, and Kenny's death. I respect Kenny for his desicion, but the others we so sudden.

Larry, easily. Not that he died, but how. I tried to revive him so being that close to his face when a salt lick crushed it without warning was...whoah.

Yeah I wasn't surprised by Doug/Carley's death at all in episode 3. Especially when Doug said he felt useless and when Carley gave her speech, I knew they were toast.

Most shocking in the moment deaths were Katjaa and Larry to me. And... well, I was expecting Ben to die, but not in the way that he did, in episode 5.

Default Lily? Wth?!

Yeah Carley just stunned me. It wasn't her as a character, just why and how sudden it happened. There I was, watching an argument like 'Take a chill pill Lily!' Then, BANG! WTH?! LILY HOW COULD YOU?! I abandoned her. I can see her side but couldn't risk a murderer :/

I picked Mark, Ben, Kenny and Katjaa, but if there was the option, I'd have picked Andy and Danny St. John too.

Mark
Mark was one of my favourite characters. The first time I saw him, I was like "Hey, who the hell's that?" but after a while, every time I saw Mark, I couldn't resist saying, "Oh, hai, Mark! " He grew on me really quickly, he was the first person I gave the food rations to (along with Lily, Ben and Clementine). When we went to the St Johns and he was shot in the shoulder by an arrow, I gasped, cracked a few jokes ("Hey, at least it wasn't an arrow in the knee, man") and then squirmed uneasily as Brenda took him into the house. I was already VERY untrusting of the St. Johns. When we walked in for dinner and I asked where Mark was, only to have Brenda reply, "Oh, he won't be down for dinner. He's up resting in bed. He already ate", and I saw that the dinner was meat, I knew. When I had opened the barn door and saw the machinery, the first thing I thought was, "Oh my God, they're eating people, aren't they?" which is why a chill ran down my spine when I turned to see Andy and see said "Didn't you hear the bell?... Dinner time" in that really creepy voice. *shivers* I went upstairs, all the while quietly going "Eeeeeeeeeeeeeee D: eeeeeee" and when I saw the bed was empty and walked into the bathroom... "Aw, FUCK."

Ben
Ben was, and I say this with complete sincerity, my all-time favourite character. I didn't like him at the start, my first impression was "Huh, cowardly, stupid, messed up in the head... Welcome to the group, idiot" or something along those lines, but I honestly grew to love him. When I found out he was the one trading the bandits the supplies, I feel like I was the only one to actually say in my head "It's okay, Ben. I'm not angry, man. I'll keep your secret" and mentally hug him. When he fell off the balcony, I literally screamed, and I never react like that to games. I watched as Lee ran after him, muttering "please be okay, please be okay, please be okay". When he said "my leg's hurt", I breathed out, relieved, thinking 'Hey, he can just limp up the ladder, it won't be that hard, we can get him out of here!'... then Kenny moved the trash... and... Oh my God. :'( I cried.

Kenny
With Kenny... I wouldn't say shocked as much as sad and filled with respect. The fact that he had one bullet left, and he heard Ben's pleas not to become one of THEM, and he used that one bullet to put Ben out of his misery. I never liked Kenny, simply because of the way he treated Ben, but honestly? After that, I just... wow.

Katjaa
I was really sad with her death. She was annoying at first, but after the whole Duck fiasco, the way she treated her son was amazing. All I can remember is feeling crushed when she said "I love him more than life itself" and then I looked at Duck and knew 'It's over for him'. I heard the gunshot and I didn't know why everyone was so alarmed, I just thought 'Guys, Duck was going to die anyway. If Katjaa felt strong enough to shoot him, why are you all screaming and running around in circles?' Then I saw Katjaa and I was like 'Selfish bitch, shooting yourself in front of your dying son' but then Kenny's reaction happened... and I cried again.

Andy and Danny
They weren't an option in the poll, but I was honestly sad at Andy's death. Danny, not so much, he was a bastard anyway. But Andy... he was just trying to be a good son and not waste, just like Mamma always told him. I always trust the wrong ones, though. I trusted Vernon and I trusted Andy way too much. I liked Andy. I'm not really sure why, it was just an instant thing like "Oh my God, he's too awesome". But Danny creeped me out because I noticed they all had yellow skin unlike the other characters. My first thought was "They must be Chinese" but now I'm all like "Oh, Christ, is that a side effect of eating people? *looks in mirror and puts down half-eaten arm*" But I think I cried just a little at Andy's death. Just the way the VA delivered those last lines... then, of course, he was eaten by Brenda, and I got over it.

Oh, and Larry.
I chose to help him, so I was just like "Hey, I saw his mouth move, and he's breathing, he's OKA- oh." Then a saltlick crushed his head suddenly on my screen. I jumped.
