Totally concur with all your gripes x1,000. Season one had a kind of... hmmm... *gesticulates*... world-building excitement and wonder that I'm just not seeing or feeling with season two, at all. Which is disappointing, really.
Even though Stannis' marriage is obviously a political one as opposed to a love match, I cannot see him having much in the way of the hots for Melisandre either. More of a "she is the tool in which will win me what I want most" sort of thing.
Urg. Don't even get me started on the whole Asha/Yara name debacle and assuming we watchers of said programme are complete blinking IDIOTS. HBO gets absolutely no love from me on this stupid decision. No love!
