Catelyn Stark is the most annoying character for me. She's so damn whiney. Rob should have killed her when she let Jaime escape.

I enjoyed the Bran chapters. They were slow moving, but they are interesting because of what they revealed about Martin's world.

The characters that annoyed me by far the most were Cersei, Dany, and Sansa. And Sansa is starting to grow on me. Dany is getting worse for the reasons said by CajunRevolution.

This. Especially after the Reeds show up, Bran's chapters provide the most backstory and that's why I always liked them.

Bran's character in the book is cool, but I don't care for the tv version of Bran. I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that he's supposed to be a little kid, like 10 or something right? Well b/c this series takes so long to make, the actor looks like he's about 15 imo and is quite creepy.
I'm curious to see how this all unfolds b/c it seems like by the time they get to the end of the show these kids are gonna be in their 20's

Sansa for me.

She has only ever been a trading chip or object of affection. She does NOTHING.

She is a beast whiner, one of the best in TV history.

Um, no.

You could have an argument with Roz, though.
Good riddance. a pointless POV and waste of film...her presence did NOTHING for the story at all.

Wholly disagree. I see her as the character that represents the gap between the old imagined fantasy of valiant knights and beautiful maidens versus the harsh reality of it all. I really like her character.

I get her subtext - she is obviously a dreamer/girl who wanted to be a princess. I just wish her character would accomplish something or do something on screen that would make me like her, or force me to care about her future.

(maybe she does it moreso in the books, but I don't read GOT books)

In the last season of the show, Bran is going to warg into a dragon and you are going to regret disrespecting him.

ETA: This is not a spoiler, just conjecture.

I actually told my wife last night this his scenes bore me.

He is uninteresting, and I don't really care what happens to him. Perhaps he becomes more important in the books, but with all the other story lines they could have just written his out.

She does. You literally see her fantasy world shatter in front of her eyes. Her character is developing. Personally, I feel many bookreaders/show watchers on here unfairly shite on many of the female characters for being too whiny/bitchy.

You don't venture to the OT much do you?

Fwiw, I agree with you that Sansa's story line is interesting.
