Honest to God, you could not have done one single thing dumber than what you did. Let's not forget that she is also the one that pushed Ned to go the Kings Landing in the books (at her crazy !@#$ing sister's behest) as well as pushed the Sansa/Joffrey marriage, which was pretty much the beginning of the end there.
Everything she said/did was wrong. Everything.
Her and Sansa were an absolute PITA to read. I'd read Cat once I flipped the page and sighed... Every time. [Reply]

Yeah, fair enough. I find it so easy to forget how very young some of these characters are/were supposed to be. [Reply]
Sorry Melisandre, but there's a new red priestess in the Seven Kingdoms.
Spoiler alert for "Game of Thrones" Season 6.
Over the weekend, Brazilian fan site "Game of Thrones" BR uncovered a leaked audition tape that reportedly featured a new character for Season 6. The video, which has since been removed from Vimeo, featured actress Tehmina Sunny reading what may or may not be a real "GoT" script in Portuguese for a character named Kinvara.
Based on the scene's dialogue, translated to English by Watchers on the Wall, it seems that Kinvara is a red priestess of the Lord of the Light, similar to Melisandre. Leaked casting information for Season 6 has already hinted that the series is looking to bring on a new priestess character.
According to the translation, Sunny's Kinvara speaks with Tyrion and Varys in the scene. In it, it's revealed that Tyrion wants the woman to help convince the people of Meereen to obey the temporary rulers of the city until Daenerys returns. For one, this points out that Dany has still not returned to Meereen after being surrounded by a Dothraki khalasar in the Season 5 finale.
Kinvara also claims that the Khalessi is the savior of the Seven Kingdoms and not Stannis, as Melisandre had believed. Based on the English translation, Sunny says, "Daenerys Stormborn is the One Who Was Promised. From the fire, she was reborn … to remake the world.” The scene also confirms that Stannis is indeed dead. Although director David Nutter pretty much confirmed this to Variety, it appears that word of Stannis' fall has already traveled to Meereen in this scene.
While the audition tape may not be authentic, there is a possibility it's real, since in the past a similar situation happened. Last year, an audition tape leaked of one of the Sand Snakes hinting at a fight scene, which eventually happened when Bronn and Jaime fought the three fighters in Season 5.

I've been thinking about that... I think part of the process may involve tempering the steel in human blood or human heart's blood.
Whatever the secret was, the Valyrians took it with them. But it wouldn't shock me if the Nissa-Nissa sacrifice was similar... just a step up from the typical process. [Reply]

Worse to read POV chapters of maybe, but Cersei's character is evil whereas Catelyn is just stupid. There's no way Catelyn is a worse person than Cersei. [Reply]

I hate Cersei, but her POV chapters are at least entertaining to read because of the psychology angle.

Blech.
I'm not sure if you've caught up to the scene in the spoilers, so exercise caution. I'd like to say that the season gets better and stays that way after this monstrosity:
