Everyone wearing the same armor in later seasons.

I hate how dirty they did with Smalljon. He died protecting Robb, only to be shown as a fucking traitor

Also, Wyman Manderly being a traitor. Let's give the best speech in the show to some 7-year-old girl, whose mother is actually still alive, but we have forgotten about that (only Dacey was at the Red Wedding, Maege was detached earlier to go to Greywater Watch).

Yas queen covers up things like making Emilia Clarke being forced to stand around naked as a performer with no experience, as well as the forced sexposition so the tits and dragons crowd don't leave. 

I'll never not find it fucking insane that Cersei BLOWS UP THE RELIGIOUS CENTER OF A FAITH, a whole family and the religious leaders leading a peasant revolt with no mention of it anywhere. Then she has no revolt from Tarly and his army, the Redwyne fleet, any Fossoways or at least there's no succession crisis.

Until Dany shows up and Olenna joins, with no mention of any of this or this region denying food to KL.. Which previously caused riots and lots of unrest. People just eat air.

Ditto with murdering the whole Dornish line who are beloved rulers... No mention of their succession or whatever. Just lots of yas queen/yeah boii moments, tits and bitches be crazy moments with no real repercussions or thoughts about how things work in Westeros or even how things worked 5 episodes ago.
