Game of Thrones Season 6 Discussion [SPOILERS WITHIN]
RE: Game of Thrones Season 6 Discussion [SPOILERS WITHIN]
For some reason.... the characters seem a bit dumber on the show...
It's not that the things don't happen in the books... it's the motivation that leads the characters into those situations that's not very well translated into the TV medium.
Take the "recent" Cersei granting the Faith Militant more power than she should... why did she do that on the show? to rid herself of the Tyrels??!! Petty!
Why did she do that in the books? Debt! The crown was in a huge debt and taking out a few individuals "erased" some of that... She was trying to be like Tywin, ruling, taking care of business... but not as aware of consequences as her father.

Another... Jamie's return to King's Landing and subsequent fondling with Cersei in the sept, next to Joff's dead body... why did he do that in the show? meh.... rapey.
Why did he do that in the book? He'd just arrived and gotten back to his beloved sister whom he'd been craving for too long.... screw everything else! also, not rapey.



Tolkien wins! Tongue
