Which character do you dislike the most? (possible Spoilers of books 1-4)

Varys-His hypocrisy for weeping over the innocent dying and yet he kills his 'little birds' without blinking.
Roose Bolton-Sabotaging Robb, then the Red Wedding and for being an evil cruel mongrel.
Ramsay Bolton-A psycho bozo who needs to be put out of action.
There are so many, too many...The Mountain, Lorch, Rorge, Biter, Joffrey, Cersei, Quyburn etc....

LOL I think you'd be right, but there's also Jon and his mysterious parentage....My own shot in the dark--Varys will creep away and survive...The curse of Harrenhal will eventually get Littlefinger...if Lady Stoneheart doesn't get him first!;)

I actually don't know where the show is going with Sansa, but I can't see her actually stabbing anyone-it would be too unladylike....But Arya, that's a different story, although he's never been on her hit list, unfortunately.
In the books. I think Lady Stoneheart will figure out that Petyr Baelish was never 'like a little brother'...In ASOS, she spends a lot of time pondering on what Jaime and Tyrion have told her, but she doesn't want to believe Petyr would lie to her...then the Red Wedding....I guess we'll have to wait and see....

I'd like to see Sansa begin to mirror Daenerys journey at the beginning, she had a tough time with Drogo and the Dothraki, but her own determination won over...But Dan n Dave have messed up Sansa's storyline so much that it is hard to predict......Their are S6 Spoilers, but I wont mention them here.

I like the Hound-You can see him changing from being a cold blooded killer to Sansa and then Arya's protector which he does in his own rather brutal fashion.....but he doesn't know any other way. I actually do think he regrets killing Mycha(the butchers boy)....so there is redemption for Sandor Clegane.

1. Ramsay (sadist)
2. Mountain (meathead)
3. Brienne (Mary Sue. Too much air time!)
4. Robyn Arryn (whiny)
5. Joffrey (same as Ramsay. A bastard in every way)
6. Three Sand snakes (pick any. Why did we go to Dorne again?)
Book
1. Ramsay (less air time. No less sadistic)
2. Shae (greedy. TV Shae had more characterization)
3. Bran (boring)
4. Theon (weak bully then a sniveling coward)
5. Rob Stark (idiot. For beheading Karstark)
6. Catelyn Stark (jealous. Mean to Jon)
7. Robyn Arryn (same as above)

LOL I got the giggles with Mountain=Meathead....but I would have to include Littlefinger, the instigator of the War of the Five Kings. That dude has to die.....

Littlefinger is devious, manipulative, cunning, ambitious, unscrupulous, dishonorable, unethical, treacherous, deceitful, under-handed and immoral.
True, he has to die. But what a great character! Not on my dislike list...

But all the things you mentioned above, he has to die. He not only responsible for the death of high born lords and ladies, thousands have died because of his manipulations.....so though I find him interesting, he has to die....

You're right and it is easy to overlook her contribution to the downfall of her sister's family and all because she was jealous. She's an odious woman and got what she deserved....

Theon Greyjoy is next on my list, for being arrogant, utterly naive, ungrateful, and for not having a spine.
Brilliant character writing though, to make people feel so strongly about them.
I also dislike Catelyn Stark and Daenerys Targaryen.


1 Cersi Lannister
2 Theon Greyjoy
3 Jeoffry Lannister I hated that little messed up kid so much I wanted to have him die in a sl..."
In the books Ned didn't want to go to Kings Landing, he wanted to refuse the Kings offer, it was Catelyn who talked him into it.....Also Ned didn't start the War of the Five Kings; Littlefinger started it with the death of Jon Arryn assisted by Lysa....When Ned was ready to leave Kings Landing, it was Littlefinger again who intervened and then probably let Jaime Lannister know where to find him and so Ned got injured.
Littlefinger needed Ned dead and that meant keeping him at Kings Landing....He's a long term planner and he has always had his eyes on the North and the Throne.
I think Ned made some dumb mistakes, but I can't hate him for putting honour and principles above self interest.....I also think Ned's legacy will last longer, than Tywin Lannister whose family have now become a joke.....

Littlefinger has the amazing capacity to always land on his feet, if Ned had not listened-- Littlefinger would have figured out another way. He needed to escalate the distrust between Houses Stark and Lannister & unfortunately Sansa also naively betrayed her father by informing Cersei of her father's intent....But yes, Ned should have left immediately and not have bothered with finding Jon Arryn's murderer.......
2 Jamie Lannister
3 Cersi Lannister
4 Umm (Rubs chin) pretty much everyone who hasn't died by the end of book 2
