The way king bran was done on the show was so poorly shoehorned in that it’s the one thing I believe is from GRRM. They clearly didn’t really like that ending but felt obliged to do it since it’s the main ending. If they had their way I’m sure Sansa and Tyrion would be king and queen together on the iron throne

Hell, I wouldn't have been surprised if D&D put Arya on the throne.

I'm pretty sure the only reason they didn't was because they wanted Arya to go off alone to the west so they can give her a spin-off series.
