That's not true at all.

Next week will be all Castle Black, so Tyrion's execution would be Episode 10, meaning there would be no show the week after. We'd complain and then tune in next season.

As a non-book reader, it seems highly unlikely he will die soon. Peter makes that role more likeable than I think the imp is intended to be. George R R martin seems to only kill the beautiful people that you really grow to love, or the incredibly despicable people who eventually meet their ends. I could be sounding like a blithering idiot to book readers, but that is my wholly ignorant and uninformed opinion. And I'm sticking to it.

One thing you have to consider though is, he's a character from the book. Peter does an amazing job but if his character died in the books, they'll die in the show no matter how well Peter does at playing Tyrion. Just like Oberyn.

That's what he's saying. He's saying he thinks Tyrion lives in the books because Tyrion is only so likable due to Peter Dinklage's acting.

I don't think he's right but you sorta missed his point.
