I think Aemond was developed into the menace, and Aegon into the stupid but not entirely forgone character… based on what Halaena said. I go back to episode 1 when he wanted to supply the guy back with his sheep, and Otto Hightower advised him against it. His downside is being an idiot and hanging the innocent rat catchers lol
The only other characters they developed were the dragon riders. And Allicent’s brother and son.
It was lacking with Team Black in terms of character development.
I agree completely on the promise of dragon rage and not getting it, Rook’s Rest and then just basically showing how many dragons you have to each other? Ehhh
I think Otto will be a big player in S3, along with Alicent’s brother we haven’t seen
I now have the book so I’ll know before all this **** sets off

Interesting move by GRRM considering that the show, despite its flaws, is a hit and HBO has already committed to two more seasons.
Maybe he’s hoping he can influence some improvements in seasons 3 and 4.

A penny for your thoughts on Season 8, Mr. Martin.

I mean hasn't GRRM had a distant hand on GoT/HotD?
Or he has he not had a say so?

I'm sure I'm on #FreezeTime with this buuuuut...
"Rhaenyra Targaryen was murdered by her brother, or rather his dragon. It ate her while her son watched.
What's left of her is buried in the crypt, right down there."
"Over there, in that urn, the ashes of Aerian Targaryen; Aerian Brightflame they called him. He thought drinking wildfire would turn him into a dragon. He was wrong. And of course, there's the Mad King, killed ny my uncle. Would you like to see where the last of the Targaryens are buried?"

Puts him in a good spot to right some wrongs and inject hope. Brutal world, but **** still goes right sometimes.

Guessing GRRM got a strongly worded communication from someone at HBO or their lawyers.
But doesn’t really matter much since the cat’s out of the bag.

Wait did he just spoiler what the books say or things the show is deciding to do differently?

Just finish your books George and shush.
I can get his frustrations but it's an adaptation and someone else's show, even if it's based on your works.

All this "shut up and write" nonsense is funny as hell to me. Dude can't have an opinion on how his life work is being interpreted for mass consumption in a different medium? Everyone needs to relax, in general.

If you're going to grant creative liberty, expect... EXPECT... things you don't like.
