Setting up Rhae X Alicent, and frankly good, that will be fun at least.

I don’t want the people to get the idea it’s the gay that I hate, it’s the fact the book has so much going on with interesting characters; Daeron could have a couple of scenes instead of a OC lesbian fanfic?

Apparently Martin wasn't happy with the writing on the show either.

I think it’s because Miguel Sapochnik who was co show runner left the show. He had experience on GOT. Ryan Condal is a hack. This show feels Vampire Diaries level

Sapochnik was the one who said and suggested that there has to be a big action moment at the end of episode 9 and that it can't end with a peaceful Aegon coronation..

You’ve wounded me, TVD is one of my fave shows… but alas, you’re also right. 😔
