Most of the popular ones. Especially Game of Thrones. As soon as the incestuous couple threw the little boy off the tower, I was outta there. I'm so tired of shows about horrible people doing horrible things.
Grimdark stuff is just so infantile. It's not "realistic and gritty" to have every single character cuss a thousand times per episode and be constantly in and out of clothes
Reddit-style spoilers don't work on Lemmy. Spoilers are done with

Wait. Brandon? Hmmm....
Huh. I never thought about it like that. I'm not sure that would have been the case though. The starks would have lost their shit a lot faster had he died. I can't remember exactly, but it was one of the brothers or the mom that was like "nahhhh he didn't fall" and then went up the tower and figured it out.
And then, had he died, nobody could've stopped her. Even Ned would've rained hell, esp with Robert there. The only reason nothing immediately happened was BECAUSE he didn't die. And then, he wasn't the bad guy because he basically ended up being the/a good guy for the rest of the show.
Wanna talk about misdirected hate, Jeezzz.
What about "the guy who was cucking the king by fucking his twin sister/the queen and when his secret got discovered tried to murder an innocent kid/royal to cover it up with no thoughts of the consequences"? Eh? Can't that guy be the bad guy?
So you going to overlook the Bran, once he got access to his powers proceeded to messed with the brains of people. Hodor for one. The 'mad king' for the other. If that we were shown.
Or how Bran does jack shit in the big fight, despite being able to.
And then it's made kind because... He had the most interesting story...
Countless people died because that little shit manipulated time and events to gain power.
I thought Bran fucking up Hodor was a huge mistake though. And how did he mess with the brain of the mad King? I don't remember that at all.
Maybe I'll have to rewatch it all because I don't remember anything about him manipulating time. I kind of remember him being able to see, but then certain people having a sixth sense sort of where they could notice him?
Are you going off the books or just the show?
I completely understand and it took me three tries to get through the first few episodes... and then the biggest shock is that you end up partly understanding and feel these horrible people. At times, you may even root for some of them. It's definitely taxing for most of us but that's what makes it a great show.
Jaime was a great story, till they done him shitty in the end
