[hider=season 6 yes 6 spoiler][url=https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/236x/13/71/73/137173d73880976c32f5b14ab34b598e.jpg]Euron[/url] is coming next season. The whole Greyjoy plot is coming, as is some history about Ned -- so a lot of those sideplots are, actually, returning[/hider]

The show is deviating a lot from the books, yes. I'm okay with that. The show isn't worse, except for Dorne -- but again, Dorne [i]really[/i] wasn't that much better in the books, and the book-version of these last ten episodes [i]was longer than the friggin' bible.[/i] They simplified some stuff? Awesome. There's no way we needed all that in TV.

[b]In a book? Yeah, sure, I dug it.[/b] It was long and boring and impossible to film, but presumably important to the imminent conclusion. 

Also -- keep your Stoneheart, I just want the Blackfish back.
