This goes for just about any adaptation. In fairness, some things do work in a book better than in a movie/tv show and vice-versa but it feels like this is used as an excuse to take way more creative liberties than necessary. Which isn't necessarily bad for the end result, but it does feel like a diss on the source material.

I think the best adaptation I've ever seen is the Jim Carey Christmas Carol.

My understanding is so the last two books arent ruined. I have to find the article but I remember reading somewhere that Martin said the books will end somewhat differently than the show.
