There are spoilers in this article, so if you haven't read through book 4, proceed with caution.

Seen this? What do you guys think of the decision?

I wonder how official it is. They interviewed the episode's director and the actress. It could be that D.B. & D.B. haven't revealed plans for it in Season 5. All they knew for sure was that she wasn't in the Season 4 finale.

And Fairley could be under a gag order if she's been contracted to play it....

If it's true, it's messed up. What concerns me is that DB & DB were supposedly given the ending of the series by GRRM, and that since then they're dropping characters they don't feel are important. That tells me that they're not all that important to GRRM either. That's kind of a spoiler by ommission.

Right.

I just don't see how they can leave her out. honestly, I'm perplexed. it terms of action and actual time in the book, LS is minor. but she is the current endpoint for both Brienne & Jaime (and Pod). well not endpoint as far as death goes, but she's key to their current narrative. how are they going to get around that? that seems huge.

If this is true, it's also just too bad as it's more world building we lose. I mean, we've seen what can be done with Dondarrion, but it's pretty cool to know the magic can be passed on to another character from the actual character, not just a Red Priest.

And Farley says "The character's dead. She's dead", I take that to mean Catelyn, and Catelyn isn't exactly the same as Lady Stoneheart, she's a new incarnation of an old character. This quote means nothing to me.

And at the same time, I wouldn't rule it out, not showing LS. They've left out too much as far as important character development for my liking. I'm pretty much hating the show and I don't know why I'm even watching it anymore. Maybe so I can bitch about it; because that's all that happens after an episode, me bitching. At this point, I've lost all hope of it ever getting back on track and I don't give a damn anymore.

I get annoyed a lot too Jackie and have considered not watching many times, by the end of this season I wasn't very on top of it watching on Sunday evening and not catching it til mid-week or so.

However I did really enjoy Episode 9. That was the only episode I was really fully impressed with. I still think Season 1 was the best season they put together.
