Meh, [spoiler]Ned was an idiot and, even if you like him, you just had to beat your head against the wall at his political incompetence. Robb was kind of underdeveloped IMO as a personality. Drogo was never particularly interesting either, just kind of a plot piece and it was fairly obvious he was not destined for the earth (or whatever) very long. Renly wasn't particularly developed either, and Robert was far more interesting in the show where they add the lion in winter scene - not much interesting about a washed up fat drunk.. Joffery was just a douchebag that everyone was happy died.
Maybe Tywin and Shae count... We don't know for sure if the Cleganes are dead[/spoiler]
There are plenty of interesting characters left, including the most interesting characters. Hell, even vapid characters Sansa become more interesting as the story progresses. Of course then there is Brienne...
I suppose the fact that there are that many characters people actually find interesting are telling that its better than your average crap fantasy writing..
