Jesse is not the lead actor of Breaking Bad. If Jesse were to die in this Sunday's episode, it would suck, but the season (and series for that matter) would go on. If Walt were to die on the other hand, the entire show comes to a grinding halt. That's the difference. Walt is so engrained into this show. Virtually every single character in the series is given screen time because of Walt. The same can't be said for Jesse. Walt IS Breaking Bad.
