Melisandre plotted against my Queen and her son the King,alongside the false King Stannis, she deserves killing. The lady Melisandre did more for the Crown and its rightful ruler, King Stannis of the House Baratheon than anyone in the show, bub. If not for His Grace's slight miscalculation in listening to the Onion Knight's folly, she would've delivered to him his rightful throne from the spiteful loathesome crone and her bastard twat of a son, Imp's tricks or no. The Lord of Light might've even granted her the prescience to send troops to the Great Hall first and stop the cowardly bitch from slinking from her just fate via poison. Then she could've been properly purified at the pyre. Righteous retribution is coming though. Everyone that's had to suffer because of this demented cow (which is pretty much everyone on the show excluding White Walkers and their victims) will soon be vindicated. In the meantime, imagining her screams is proving to be a sufficient lullaby.

Melisandre is the only female character on the show that's still worth watching for me. She's fabulous.

Melisandre plotted against my Queen and her son the King,alongside the false King Stannis, she deserves killing. She needs to be burned at the stake, after telling Stannis that he had to sacrifice his daughter. If I was Davos, she would have never made it out of Winterfell regardless what Jon Snow said.

The only likable character left is the hound, I hope he makes it all the way to the end. Maybe thats because in a world like GoT I would probably turn into a character like him.

Not that I think you're wrong to like and dislike whoever you want But I'm curious, why is he the only one left for you? Generally speaking there are still characters around that seem pretty well liked like Jon, Davos, and Tyrion. The latter may be a bit more controversial but someone like Jon has been pretty inoffensive for going on 6 seasons now and is considered one of the few decent people left on the show. I mean I get that likable could be so many different things that's based solely on your personal preference. I just don't know what the rest of the cast lacks that makes them unlikable to you. Again just curious and would love to hear why.

I guess the main reason is I cannot relate to any of the characters (anymore) but the Hound, for me he seems like the only sane, grounded mind in a world gone insane, I agree with most things he does and it make sense to me. All the other characters are - to me- delusional to various degrees and feel more like exaggerated comic characters. They all wander about in their own personalized version of Crazytown. On top of that, I simply like Rory Mccann a lot, he is one of the best actors in the series. But since you mentioned Davos, he is my second favorite character, I've grown to like him a lot more since he stopped being Stannis insufferable lapdog.

The latter may be a bit more controversial but someone like Jon has been pretty inoffensive for going on 6 seasons now and is considered one of the few decent people left on the show. Not Beetle, but for myself, it's not that I object to Jon, Davos or Tyrion. But at this stage it feels like we have to default to them. Yes Jon may be decent but in a world where merely being decent is just murderbait and there's such a diverse cast to choose from, people will naturally grativate to different characters for various reasons. Mostly related to other characteristics they enjoy since characterization is a top notch selling point of this series. Basically there was so much else going on that the plain heroic characters now seem... well, plain. Plus I think a lot of the likeable characters partially had their circumstances to thank for their charm. Davos for instance worked really well as a foil for Stannis, both being inscrutable and pragmatic men with the latter taking will, integrity and duty to the extreme and the former trying to balance him out with more human compassion. As Jon's aide though? He's just a stock loyal advisor, another Jorah minus the obsessive love obviously. Tyrion as well owes his likeability to owning his supposed betters within the system, outwitting them with a jester's gleam and entertaining us in the process. But as yet another sycophant to Daenerys? His character will provide some of that but again it's diminished. And seeing him fail in Mereen wasn't entertaining, even though it made sense why- he was out of element.

Yeah, I don't see the appeal very much. OTOH, Stannis afaik is cooler in the books. So maybe Davos' loyalty makes more sense in that light.

Arya is my favorite character.
Her storyline has this phuqed up coming of age vibe going on. Real phuqed up.
Can't wait to see what happens with her in the show and books.
Tyrion is another favorite of mine. He's simply brilliant.

I heard the show kind of did him an injustice. Like he was supposed to be of the same ilk as Eddard or something, but without the self-destructive honor.

He was a bit like Eddard in his sense of duty, but much more of a hardass. People like him because of that and that he's really blunt about refusing to accept any compromise. And in the books, his daughter and wife are still at Castle Black while Stannis' army is trapped on their way toward Winterfell. The daughter burning thing hasn't happened and may not happen.

Err, not quite. But he doesn't burn his daughter in the books, instead he leaves explicit instructions that if he falls, his troops are to do everything in their power to put her on the throne. The final battle also doesn't happen, nor does Ramsay's plot armored "20 good men" ninja bullshit happen either. As for overall character, I'm not sure if this applies to the books as much as the show (I've only seen the show apart from reading about the above differences with Stannis), but I've always been of the view that some main lords of the houses embody one major defining characteristic, one they pursue to a fault. That characteristic is the source of both their strength and their weakness. Eddard Stark- Honor Stannis Baratheon- integrity/duty. Tywin Lannister- legacy I had more but I've forgotten them. Anyway for the above, the characteristics/ideas they each represent are responsible for both rise and downfall.

Well, he still burns peeps alive in the books. He also participates in black magic snu-snus with Mel, kills his own brother and tries to kill his own nephew. Pretty piece-of-shitty by my calculations. He haven't burned his daughter, true, but on the other hand, he's a fucking whining bitch in the books. He whines all the time-- how his brothers did him injustice, how this or that land should have belonged to him, how this world is too stupid to obey such an awesome pal as he is. Seriously, that man holds grudges against EVERYTHING.

I heard the show kind of did him an injustice. Like he was supposed to be of the same ilk as Eddard or something, but without the self-destructive honor. Not really like Ned, but still a lot better than the show. In the book series, Stannis is Lawful Neutral He believed in the rule of law above all else. Good deeds don't cancel out bad, people need to be rewarded and punished for both (thus how he rewarded and punished Davos) He is hard, pitiless, and unrelenting, but he is not cruel or malicious. He does not believe the ends justify the means. He didn't want to be king, he saw it as his duty to claim the crown because Robert was dead and Joffrey (and his siblings) were illegitimate. He was next in line for the throne He is also not an idiot. He would never have burned his daughter: 1) She was an innocent, undeserving of such a fate 2) She was the last living Baratheon after himself. If he died, his House is GONE 3) His people would never stand for it, and he knew it. In fact, in the books: Stannis left Shireen at Castle Black when going to attack Winterfell. And when he sends Ser Justin Massey to Braavos to recruit sellswords to his cause, Stannis gives him additional instructions:
"It may be that we shall lose this battle," the king said grimly. "In Braavos you may hear that I am dead. It may even be true. You shall find my sellswords nonetheless."
The knight hesitated. "Your Grace, if you are dead — "
" — you will avenge my death, and seat my daughter on the Iron Throne. Or die in the attempt."
Ser Justin put one hand on his sword hilt. "On my honor as a knight, you have my word." There was also a point where his army was marching through a blizzard; “A sacrifice will prove our faith still burns true, Sire,” Clayton Suggs had told the king. And Godry the Giantslayer said, “The old gods of the north have sent this storm upon us. Only R’hllor can end it. We must give him an unbeliever.”
“Half my army is made up of unbelievers,” Stannis had replied. “I will have no burnings. Pray harder.”
Hardly the words of a man who'd burn his own daughter under, well, the exact same circumstances

Oh I don't know...the Hound is great, but I also like Bronn, Grey Worm and I love what was done with Podrick. (although I don't think he'll be around much longer. ) ... Arya, Brienne and Lady Olenna are my favorite female characters...And as much as I hate Cersi, I have to admit Lena Headey is pretty damn awesome at playing her.

The Stannis fandom is largely driven by headcanon/memes(much like how MET fans were more in love with their headcanon version of Shepard than what was actually in the games) and mass hysteria. How else would you explain the love for someone that burns alive his own men and relatives without trial and is a male Daenerys in terms of political and social tact? Renly summed him up perfectly when he said he inspires no love or loyalty, and without Davos and Mel he would've been a headless chicken. I'm glad he was killed off in the show and we don't have to deal with his obnoxious fanbase any longer, and I'm sure that my Queen sitting on the throne instead of him must've been a bitter pill to swallow, kek.

It's pretty much criminal to compare him to Daenerys. Stannis actually has some merits from prior and earned his keep, where as Daenerys has only started to do things only recently, but even then she's next to nothing without the dragons. His fanbase will never die, Cersei will get her due. I really like Lena's work elsewhere and don't find her ugly, but considering how I've heard Cersei to be described in the books. Lena and blonde hair doesn't really deliver that. Not to mention she's been just about the least useful character on the show for long while. She has achieved very little on her own, her authority came from her father and his legacy. She was always a grade A B*tch, who would've been chopped to bits if she hadn't been born to a proper house.

As I've said, part of his fandom probably also stems from the book version. He wasn't a very nice person there either, but not nearly as crazy as he ended up being in the series. The tv series is pretty much all fancfiction at this point anyway.

It's pretty much criminal to compare him to Daenerys. Stannis actually has some merits from prior and earned his keep, where as Daenerys has only started to do things only recently, but even then she's next to nothing without the dragons. It woulda been true if Daenerys was some kind of a rich spoiled kid that got dragons as a birthday gift. She wasn't. She, in fact, did impossible things to get these beasts, things no one could do but her. Not everyone has quads to walk into the fire. She earned those dragons. Stannis, on the other hand, only has some merits of the past. In here and now, he's a lucky boi whose petty "victories" are earned through Melisandre's misinterpretation of who is Azor Ahai. If there were no Mel, there wouldn't be fire zealots supporting Stannis, so he wouldn't gain any support from the lords and, most likely, would be a king of one shitty island for a very, very short time.
