BKSheikah owned me so thoroughly in the 2017 guru contest, I'd swear he used the Lens of Truth to pick his bracket. (thengamer.com/guru)

He's a brilliant character and was portrayed unbelievably well. No sane person "loves" him for what he does. They just love him for being such a fucking good actor and character.

Some people can't separate the two. It's possible to really like Bolton's character while also hating what he does.

Because the average viewer is a moron

Roose is the far better villain

Charisma.

Roose was the better of the two, but was foolish to trust Ramsay for as long as he did.

Ramsay was an even bigger fool, doomed to fail. Dude had no long term planning.

Still, he was fun to watch.

He's one of the most interesting antiheroes in recent major works of fiction.

Honestly this, Roose is supposed to be as cruel as Ramsay but as calculated as Tywin. If the books kill him the same way they did in the show, it will be a travesty. It is so OOC for Roose not to know that Ramsay is obviously scheming against him.

Roose isn't as psychotic as Ramsay. It was the psychotic torture stuff that made Ramsay who he was.

No he isn't, but Roose isn't a moron either (and Ramsay was a moron who only accomplished anything by the show making everyone into bigger morons)

Not as unhinged, but Roose has done tons of really fucked up shit in the past, there is just no direct evidence of him doing it because he is calm/calculated.

Bullshit. Admit you thought Ramsay was a good guy when they first showed him. They fooled all of us.

Ramsay was the most fun villain on the show. Everybody else is so cold and calculating, and he's all like "Let's cut this guys dick off just for shits and giggles, and then tease him by waving a sausage at him!" I don't think it's any coincidence that now he's gone, Euron Greyjoy has taken on bigger prominence on the show
