The Cock and the Shitting Scene

First - while this title is crass, apparently this is the direction our show-runner has decided to steer us in, and as such apparently it's admissible.

Rant:
I love A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms. It's a wholesome coming of age story.

Imagine reading this novela and thinking: "what if we gave Ser Arlen a huge cock and then put it right up at the beginning episode of the show and he's just pissing on the ground toward the audience - wouldn't that be totally attention grabbing?"

Then imagine putting that person in charge of the show.

This is like if you took Hook, The Sandlot, or Indiana Jones and then gave one of the characters a giant dick in the beginning of the movie. It adds absolutely nothing, detracts from the vibe of the story completely, and gates a huge audience of young adults.

This show would be easy to make excellent: just put exactly what George wrote on the screen and don't change it.
