Jon/Aegon is the most bland, generic character on the show though. Giving the throne to the ultimate Goody Two Shoes as prophesized would be so straightforward, I would hate it. 😆Sansa would have been great if they hadn't botched up her storyline.

What's with the Sansa hate here?! Sansa's definitely not useless or worthless. Tyrion literally commented on how she's still standing and people who underestimated her are dead. Sansa is a victim who became a survivor and learned politics on the way. Sansa's mind and politics literally saved Jon's ass! He'd be long dead(again) if it was for Sansa's alliance with Littlefinger. Sansa is one of the most deserving people to sit on the Iron Throne. She survived Joffrey,Ramsay,Littlefinger and she learned politics and how to lead better without threatening to kill people with Dragons. Sansa hate doesnt make sense. Daenerys-hate still makes sense to me but not Sansa.
Jon even though is an absolute sweetheart,is a fool. His first instinct is always to sacrifice himself which isn't the true mark of a good leader. Bravery sometimes just for the sake of it is stupidity. I don't mind Jon being the Savior- he always puts others before himself and I love his kind heart for it but he's not the only one who deserves to be the leader.

Exactly! He's too good and too much of a self sacrificial fool to be on the throne. Bless his heart though. His 'That would be treason' line broke me. He doesnt want to betray Daenerys.

Eh, I think it is more to do with the way Sophie Turner plays her. Unlike Cersei who is a pure villain, Sansa is one of the good guys. But Sophie plays it like a sort of underling villain. She is easy to hate. The completely unnecessary Ramsay storyline only made it worse .I don't get the Daenerys hate either. Particularly last episode within the show.Like the whole Tarly thing. Tarlys killed her most resourceful ally, Olenna Tyrell. Her side was weak. They refused to join her. So she executed them. We all know what happens in the show whenever you let someone live. Don't get why Sam was being so righteous.
Nope, Sansa is a grey character in the books too. She's as worthless as she is on the show in the sense that she just happens to survive. She's absolutely self centered and Turner is playing her on point as the underlying villain.

Can't wait till Sansa becomes the Queen she has been training to become.
Wow there are people who actually dislike lyanna Stark and rhaegar !! I suppose it's the show cuz I've never met a book reader who disliked them or blamed them for anything. What they did was brave and not crazy. It caused a war, yes but they did it for love and that's amazing. The best part about this is that this whole thing happened in the past and now they mention it here and there in the books and whenever their description comes, it's definitely the highlight of the reading.

But man if it goes to that worthless Sansa I will loathe the show.OT: Without Rhaegar and Lyanna there would be no Jon and without Jon there would be no saviour for Westeros. He is almost certainly the prince that was promised or Azor Ahai. It is a toss up between him and Jaimie depending on who kills his beloved because presently they are the two most selfless men.
