What did you think about Season 5 of Game of Thrones?
  +
Loved it! Dany finally rode Drogon and Tyrion made it to Meereen!
  +
I liked it, but too many unnecessary deaths.
  +
Disliked it. I have definitely enjoyed past seasons more.

In the novels, Sansa Stark remains in the Vale and never even meets Ramsay Bolton, while Ramsay marries Jeyne Poole (passed off as Arya). The TV series condensed both storylines together, citing that Sansa's storyline in the Vale leaves her separated from the rest of the narrative. The two plotlines ARE related as Littlefinger plans to use the Valemen to attack the Boltons. What do you think of this decision?
  +
  +
There was no way to fit the Vale storyline in, it involved too many new characters and was too removed from the other plots. Merging them was a good idea to keep Sansa in the narrative.
  +
Merging the plotlines was a good idea in principle, though I dislike how they are handling it.
  +
Merging the two plotlines wasn't a good idea, why not just give Sansa a year off the way they did with her brother Bran, instead of radically altering her story?
  +
If they're that worried about not having time to fit in Sansa's Vale storyline, the Martells are truncated, and the Greyjoys have barely been around since Season 2...why aren't they pushing for more

What would you do if you caught greyscale?
  +
  +
Commit suicide or charge off to a quick death in battle, rather than face the ravages of the disease.
  +
Cling to every last moment of life by fleeing to one of the leper-colonies for people with greyscale, like the ruins of Valyria, as the disease takes years to slowly consume you.
  +
Damn the odds by staying in civilization to seek medical treatment, desperately hoping that you are one of the few people who rarely gets miraculously cured (like Shireen), but knowing that if you fail (as you ''almost certainly'' will), the local population will eventually put you to the torch to keep the disease from spreading.

Did changing Jeyne Westerling from the books into "Talisa from Volantis" back in Season 2 help prepare you for the on-screen introduction of Volantis in Season 5?
  +
Yes, I remember her descriptions of Volantis from Season 2, and it paid off in this episode.
  +
I remember that Talisa mentioned she was from Volantis in Season 2, but don't remember anything specific she said about it; her presence did not help to set up Volantis in Season 5.
  +
I don't even remember that Talisa said she was from Volantis.

I don't distinctly remember who this "Talisa" person is.

Was Daenerys right to execute Mossador for killing the imprisoned Son of the Harpy?
  +
She should not have tried to give the Son of the Harpy a "fair trial" in the first place, but immediately executed him as Mossador urged.
  +
She was right to try to give the Harpy a fair trial, and she was right to execute Mossador for murdering him.
  +
She was right to try to give the Harpy a fair trial, and she was right to execute Mossador, pragmatically because he broke he command not to kill him.
  +
She was right to try to give the Harpy a fair trial, but she should have given Mossador mercy given his circumstances as a former slave.
  +
She was right to try to give the Harpy a fair trial, but she should have spared Mossador, for the pragmatic reason that killing him would anger the former slaves who agreed with him.

The Season 5 premiere used a flashback scene for the first time in the TV series, to Young Cersei. What did you think?
  +
It was confusing, and I don't want them to do more flashbacks.
  +
Wait...that was a flashback? That girl was Cersei?
  +
I have no strong feelings one way or the other.
  +
I thought it was great, and hope they do more flashbacks.
  +
My mind is blown, and I'm now clamoring for a prequel series after the main series ends.

  +
Which change from book to TV series are you least satisfied with?
  +
Changing Jeyne Westerling to Talisa, and how her romance with Robb Stark was written
  +
Removing most of Catelyn Stark's political agency, to have her focus more on worrying about her children than the political future of the Starks as a whole.
  +
Padding out the Qarth storyline in Season 2
  +
''Apparently'' removing the two other Tyrell brothers, Garlan and Willas (though they never ''definitively'' stated they don't exist in the TV continuity)
  +
Barely mentioning the Greyjoys since Season 2 (though they didn't do that much in the corresponding sections of the books)
  +
Return to Craster's Keep filler arc in mid-Season 4
  +
Not killing off Locke by force-feeding his own severed limbs back to him, as was done to Vargo Hoat in the books (because a Lannister always pays his debts!)
  +
Killing off Jojen Reed (though he seems to be ''dying'' of fever in the last book)
  +
Not including any of the important prophecies or flashbacks in the first four seasons (though some will appear in Season 5), including barely even ''mentioning'' Rhaegar Targaryen and Lyanna Stark.
  +
Inventing numerous Sexposition scenes with a heavy "male gaze" gender imbalance; mostly random female nudity, without enough for the ladies.
  +
Removing the revelation of what happened to Tysha as the real reason that Tyrion kills his father Tywin ("Where do whores go?")
  +
The ''possibility'' that Arianne Martell might be omitted entirely from future seasons.
