The show also ruined Theon, Loras, Stannis, and Jaime's stories/character as well. And I don't like Ramsay, but holy shit, the show missed the point of his character. Turning the batshit ugly serial rapist into an attractive overpowered villain Sue with a girlfriend is just why. That's not even getting into the gratuitous rape, nudity, and male gaze permeating the show that takes up time that can be spent on, y'know, character development. The scene with Craster's rape hut still disgusts me to this day.

Really, the only character who was "improved" upon is Dany, because her story in the later novels is unbearably dull. Jon and Arya's show counterparts are alright, I guess. Tyrion is far less grey in the show, but that also makes him less interesting to me. Cersei was made less evil and crazy in the show, for some reason, which I also feel makes her less interesting.

This. And add Littlefinger to the list

That scene in Craster's Keep where women being raped are used as literal scenery really turned my stomach. I know the books are pretty bad for rape but the show has taken it to another level. I still don't feel up to watching that episode again. Same with the wtf decision to basically merge show Sansa's story with fake!Arya from the books.

I'm not usually all that squeamish, but hearing the cries of women in pain as they're being raped in the background, cutting away to show a man forcefully moving a woman so we get a gratuitous shot of her breasts as he's raping her, followed by Burn Gorman's character talking with a naked girl on his lap who has a traumatized thousand yard stare, just. The whole fucking scene was repulsive and finding out that they hired porn stars just so they could film it in a way that's meant to be erotic? And the comments I saw from dudes who ogled the women during that scene on various sites? Just. I fucking hate the show and I will gladly take the book over that visual nightmare.

See, it's stuff like this that makes me scratch my head when people talk as if the books are soooo much worse than the show. I'm not saying the books are innocent of this kind of thing, but it doesn't even begin to touch the show.
