I had seen an article earlier this week in which Martin, on his blog, was having to fend of angry fans over this, and he said that he has no control over what occurs on the show, and that the only thing he can control is what happens in his books.
This is contradictory to what I heard where show people were saying that story line with Shireen came directly from Martin.
So basically I am in the dark, and I still haven’t yet watched tonight’s episode.
The TV showrunners were saying that it was GRRM’s idea to kill off Princess Shireen the way that they did.
Please don’t read much of this thread... lots of spoilers here. (Including mine.. I saw the show ‘live’ tonight at 9pm ET)
Apparently He Doesn't!!!!
I thought he was a Producer!?
