Pretty sure Tywin knows o_0. I mean, Cersei's already pretty much told Sansa and Tyrion on screen that her and Jaime were lovers. And at this point in the show, everyone knows her and Lancel have been doing the dirty. I highly doubt Tywin of all people is ignorant of his daughter's escapades.

And Tywin def hates Tyrion man. Tyrion's said so many fucked up stories about how his dad's treated him and look at how his dad treated him soon as he got to King's Landing. Def wouldn't do that to a son he loves.

Martin is not to blame, most of the problems people are having with the end of the 2nd season have to do with the way the show runners have deviated from Martin's book, not the way they are alike. The burning of Winterfell is a key part of the story and one that I am 100% certain will be explained next season, but it's not Martin's fault. In Martin's version of the story there was absolutely no ambiguity about who burned Winterfell and why. Also people are having problems with the Dany storyline, also not Martin's fault. The entire sequence in the House of the Undying and afterwards is different from the book to the show. Granted, I believe, it needed to be changed. The original sequence in the House of the Undying is probably unfilmable. Yet, the choices they made in how they changed it can be called into question. Overall, I think they did okay with the Dany storyline though. However you slice it though, neither of the major problems people have with the season finale is the fault of Martin.

Yeah i know he hates him now, but that's what i feel is the problem with shows consistency, because the moment they had when he gave Tyrion control of kings landing(which was essentially the kings duties) made it seem like he loved his son quite a lot. And obviously the things that he did to him when he was younger was because he was tarnishing the Lannister name by dating a whore, he would of done the same to Jamie too.

Seriously...it fucking pisses me off when people blame Martin for shit that happens in the show. The books aren't perfect but if you haven't read them don't blame Martin for shit that goes on in the show....especially when this season has been nowhere as close to the book as the first season was.

The problem i have with Dany (only know the show) is that the show would work just as good whiteout her and the longer it goes the further away from the other storyparts it seems to go (well it changed in that very last episode because they can buy a ship now)... Imho they should just have scrapped most of S2 Dany...

•You also wrote an episode, right?
I wrote episode 8. It is the episode where everything comes to the boil at the Landing. I titled it “The Pointy End.” It’s got the aftermath of the fight for power. I enjoyed writing it. It had been like a decade since I’d written a screenplay. Fortunately, I did remember how to do it. The biggest adjustment was the software has changed. It was easy in this case, because David and Dan are being quite faithful. It was a process of taking scenes from the book and putting them in script form. Even with ten hours [in the entire season], you can’t get in every line.

Did the White Walkers spare the fat guy (forgot his name >_<) or did they just not show the killing? If the answer is something that has to do with the plot later on so it's a spoiler-like answer I don't wanna know what happened and what's gonna happen next. ^^

I'm inclined to believe that Tywin does not know about his daughter and son's incest. No one pretty much knew until near the end of Season 1. It's been told that Joffrey is not the rightful heir, but it's never told to the public directly that he's the offspring of Cersei and Jaime. Additionally, Tywin has been busy doing his own thing / war campaign. If by some chance that this news did somehow reach his ears, he would probably dismiss it as rumors trying to de-legitimize his grandson's claim to the throne. He's probably too used to thinking of Joffrey as Robert's son for years that he's not willing to give a grain of concern about "rumors" he might hear during his war campaign.

I very much doubt it. Tywin is the man he is today due to an astute mind. My assumption is that he's assessed the situation, concluded that Joffrey on the throne serves Lannister interests and simply doesn't care beyond that.

I agree. Tywin doesnt care that Joffrey is a cruel sadistic incest resulted bastard, - for him , he is the king.
