    Default Underrated characters

    The likes of Dany, Jon, Tyrion etc. get all the attention but who do you like who you feel deserves more?

    I really like Shireen. She's gone through a horrible disfiguring illness that has led her to be an outcast and have such a really lonely and sad childhood. Yet she's this happy kid who just wants to be friends with people and teach them to read.

    Definitely Eddison and Grenn. Most other characters I really like have a solid fanbase.

    Lancel. You smurfers should have been paying attention to him because now he's coming for retribution!

    In all seriousness, Dolorous Edd, Lord Commander Mormont (RIP in peace) and Maester Aemon are my favorites. Also, I miss Grenn

    Dolorous Edd is one of my favorite things about this series.

    Signature by rubah. I think.

    I second Shireen and add in Princess Myrcella! Granted, she's more awesome in the books.

    Bronn is the best and that's all there is to it. Do you know how hard it was to find a quote that wouldn't be censored on here for my signature!?

    Bronn is just fantastic. Enough said. I could just watch a show about Tyrion, Bronn and Pod's adventures.

    I'm not sure if Davos is 'underrated', but he definitely needs more screentime. Davos is just great. His scenes with Shireen when she was teaching him to read were so heart-warming to watch. It was those cluster of scenes that made me really like Shireen herself as well. Her interactions with Stannis really humanizes the character.

    I really like Varys. I think he's underrated. At least, there's no big Varys fan club that I'm aware of.

    We saw quite a lot of him early on, but he's dropped off the radar a bit since then, particularly recently. But, I think that suits him just fine.

    He's at his best working away his Machiavellian schemes behind the scenes. So, although I think he's underrated, I wouldn't want to see him getting much more screen-time.

    Why I really like him, though, is that I really think that he's got the kingdom's best interests at heart: he's not in the game just for himself, unlike so many of the other courtly characters.

    In light of how Season 5 went, there will be a lot of upset people in this thread right about now.


    Take care all.

    Davos is amazing in every way. Love love love him, he can be my right-hand man but I will actually listen to his advice on occasion.

    Tormund is great, he don't smurf around none and is a huge Wildling dude called "Tormund Giantsbane" so you don't get a name like that without earning it I bet. Must be awkies when you hang out with a giant.

    I kind of liked Myranda. Crazy girl!Ramsey was really cray!

    I also liked what little we saw of Bashir, but I was really hoping we'd see a LOT more of him and also that O'Brien would hang out in the holodeck with him as Areo Hotah.

    But the best character in all of GoT, and a man I fear we shall never see again, is my dear beloved Kovarro. They never show you anymore, but I know you still faithfully serve your Queen and have never wavered in this.

    The murdering of Shireen and Myrcella was bad, and the writers should feel bad.
