I get what you are saying but things like Edric Storm now being Gendry are not in the same league as Stoneheart.

At least one of Loras' brothers has been mentioned in the TV Show?
I think Edric Storm is at least as important as Uncat. It certainly drove several chapters in the books, however the tv show had no problem substituting in Gendry and emphasizing a character we already knew about. I would prefer if they made Thoros be the driving force of the hanging of Brienne and the blackmail of Jaime, rather than Uncat, as I see her as a separate character from Catelyn.

As for Loras, he has no brothers in the tv show.

Didn't Olenna Tyrell mention marrying Sansa off to Loras' brother in Highgarden? Sansa got excited because she thought she was going to marry Loras, then Olenna deflates her, mentioning the crippled brother.

This is what I remember, but then again that's the book version and I also remember her being promised Loras in the show?

Have they explicitly said that he doesn't have any brothers? He has at least two in the books.

In the books, yes. In the tv show, Loras is the heir to Highgarden and has no brothers. Hence, why he wasn't appointed to the kingsguard. Now they might retcon it at some point, but there isn't any doubt. In the current tv show atm, his brothers have been written out.

dipshit? lol fgt.

I stated lady stoneheart wasn't essential plot wise. She isn't. You claimed I hadn't read the books because I said she doesn't have any POV chapters, you were obviously mistaken, and I accept this post as a further apology on your behalf for your ignorance.
Hey you dick licking cunt, Cat before and after the Red Wedding aren't two seperatr entities, they are the same character. Her actions have driven the main plot forward since the first book.

They have cut shitloads man. Every episode you have wailing and gnashing of teeth from hardcore fans of the hugely important things they cut. If you don't think they haven't cut shit from the books, then you really need to reread the books.
Are you arguing that it's likely they're cutting out Lady Stoneheart? If so this should get settled with an avatar bet.

No, I think they are unlikely to cut her.

I just wish they would, since I dislike her. I think the BwB motivation to hunt Frey's and be hostile to Brienne do not require her at all. I also felt like Uncat kinda "ruined" Cat. She was already unlikable enough, to then have her return to life as an even more unlikable person and then immediately try to kill Brienne was just eyerolling.

edit: Also, according to Westeros.org, disliking Catelyn means you are a misogynist, since apparently she is the true heroic person of the first 2 books. People would see that if they weren't too busy hating on her for being a woman.

Cat is the "every mom" at least from the first few seasons. Motherly, irrational, and would sacrifice everything for her children.

There is no way that they would pass up a chance to bring back a zombie character. In a world devoid of "magic" the few glimpses we get have to be shocking. And Lady Stoneheart is an excellent way to end the season. In fact, my ideal season ender is Littlefinger saying "Only Cat." Shove, scream, scared Sansa. Then cut to black. Open with a torch as someone struggles with armored figures. Close in on the Two Towers of Frey on the captive. Then have Thoros show up, give a quick speech about being judged, and reveal Lady Stoneheart. Wait for audience to freak out.

Sounds good to me.

We have no idea what Martin has planned for Lady Stoneheart. That makes this a pretty retarded argument. Surprised Grimm hasn't shamed all of you and called you faggots for letting this continue so long.

hah; the fucking Houng continues to have the best lines. "Are you going to fucking do all seven?"...."How many Stark heads have to be cut off for you to realize it".

These first three episodes have been amazingly strong; I think, overall, superior to any of the other seasons first few episodes.

so Jaime is a rapist now?
In the books he raped her when he first came back; well, at least she said "no" and he just fucked her anyway.
