Never goes how the books says it goes tho
Aint too much to stray from and D&Ds cockamamie writing won't be involved so we should be good. The first 4 seasons of
Thrones pretty was true to the books except for Ayra chapters of season 4 taking place concurrently as the events of book 3.
The strong woman characters that Hollywood likes to insert aint needed because this story already had them.
If the feminist would have waited for this series to have their "strong women" the first Thrones series would have be better for it.
When characters are well written and developed they naturally become interesting because they grow in the world that was built for them.
Hollywood likes to insert modern tropes in stories the rely on escapism of the past. Hollywood solution is to have break dance contest break out during a Count Bassie movie.
Constantly putting things in places they don't belong doesn't make you creative . It probably shows you are cognitively autistic and probably lack social skills. And Hollywood is full of egotistical rejects with a false sense of talent.
I don't think we have to worry about this show. The story is already written and you don't have to worry about to inexperienced hacks trying to make a name for themselves without giving a fuck about the fans that will actually have to support your future endeavors.
Just stay patient and I think you will get a quality series that will make you forget a Song of Ice and Fire .
