Stannis goes out like a bitch.

Off-screen deaths, ftw.

Dorne only exists so Jamie isn't around to murder people for imprisoning Cersei and it utterly shits on Doran Martell, a fairly amazing character in the books. Siddig deserved better than just playing a cripple who rolls over for the Lannisters.

Yup. It was very stupid and a complete waste of a potentially awesome character.

The Faceless Men apparently just use latex masks made from dead people rather than complex blood magic rituals. The rationale behind her going blind is also dumb.

The entire faceless men subplot was stupid. You shouldn't use words like "rationale" when discussing it. In fact, you just shouldn't discuss it.

Jorah weaving in and out of exile is silly even though it only happens once.

My impression is honestly that the show doesn't really know what it's doing with Jorah in the later seasons. No spoilers, but yeah.

And I knew this would happen because they cut Aegon, but Varys' plan is apparently to put Daenarys on the throne. That's fine...but the implication is that his original plan was to put Viserys on the throne which sort of undermines the idea that he is for the realm above all else.

Yeah, the thing with Varys is a little odd. At the beginning, we were told that he supported Viserys and then Daenerys after her bro got crowned, but considering who Varys is, I figured it was a part of some grander plan, and not as simple as "let's just put another Targ on the throne." Like, he had to know what an awful person Viserys was, right? He'd hardly have been a "for the people" type of king.

And this is a minor nitpick, but Alliser Thorne doesn't seem like the kind of person to mutiny to me.

That bothered me so much. I 1000% agree, and I think it would have been much better writing to leave him out of the mutiny. Like you said, he just did not seem like the type of guy to participate in something like that. Ugh.
