Sometimes being a bitch is all a woman has to hold on to.

I think she trusts no one but family. Jon's p-whipped crap has pissed her off.

None of the awesome nuance and strategy that she's earned has been displayed. Instead, we get a 2 minute conversation with the hound to "tell" us she's different.
Such a waste of a character.


Her character sucks. That convo with Hound made her look even more dumb. Sure she is “playing the game now”, but her admitting that being raped and brutalized made her the person today. It would be nice for her to say to Hound “I know”. It would showed her humbleness and humanity to the audience. But no, she has to portray to a be “badass bitch” 24/7 even with a character who could give a rat’s arse about politics.

And GoT has lately pushing a theme of “I’ve don’t bad or had horrible things happened to me, but it’s ok since I’m serving a purpose now or I’m a strong person today”. So a character can go around and rape women and if he turns out to be a good person 2 years from now, that makes it ok? How about burning a child? What if Meryn Trant was alive to fight the WW at Winterfell, would his action against young girls ok since “I’ve wouldn’t be here today if I weren’t a pedophile”? It’s such dogshit logic and writing. The only reason it sounds good to some people is that they translate the message as, “I’m a strong person, I can overcome anything”. It feels good at face value, but when you break down the messsge, it’s pretty f$cked up.

The only “redemption” arc that took that road this season is Theon. But let’s not pretend it hasn’t been used before.

The Hound has done terrible shite but he’s been redeemed for years.

Tormund has done terrible shite but he’s been redeemed for years.

Why haven’t you complained about them? They’ve both killed children as a means to an end right? Yet they’re two of the most popular characters. To complain about Theon now is fricking petty.

As for Sansa, I somewhat agree. We are getting it thrown in our face a bit about how much she’s changed. It’s almost as if the writers know they are rushing things and feel the need to be so explicit over and over for their dumb audience. We get it. Theon wouldn’t be here today without his missteps... Sansa wouldn’t... Arya wouldn’t... Jon... why do we need a scene for each one to point that out? But especially Sansa who’s had about 4 of those scenes already.

Well, had they said “I wouldnt be here today if it hadn’t done shitty xyz thing”, I would call them out. I mean, it’s it frowned upon for a person to show some regret? show a little humility. Even hound admitted he made a mistake about playing with his brother’s toy. It makes him human.

And who’s complaining about Theon?

There really isnt enough time in the show to cover whats going to happen with the North now that there is no more Winter. The whole setup in the North doesnt make sense anymore. The Nights Watch is done. So being in charge of the North is a pretty crappy job for Sansa now. Scenes with her and Cersei now would be interesting. Maybe she will flip to Cersei's side and pull a Littlefinger.

The way Dumb and Dumber write, she'll end up on the thrown for it.

I'd steer completely away from "interesting theories" popping up on Twitter right now.

Except they keep saying over and over and over that Jon doesn't want the thrown.
So, with both other houses killed off.... and her two siblings not interested in the thrown.

It leaves it to Sansa. How made for TV.
It's like a Hallmark show. Where she finally gets rewarded for all of her suffering.
Just like in the real world, right?!?
