She's either a poorly acted character or perfectly acted woman. I started to skip her chapters in the last book.

No, not particularly.
really? in a tv show character arcs need to develop a lot faster than in a book, i think it would give people a reason to enjoy Sansa's scenes. she has been a dull point for 3 seasons, would be cool to see her do something other than sit there sulking.

Sansa, on TV, would be more congruent if she was played by a younger actor. As it is, it comes off as a 20+ year old behaving like a early-mid adolescent that makes the character seem more retarded than appropriate.

Arya wouldn't work as a 9 year old, so if they bumped her up to 15ish then Sansa still has to be 18ish. The actors themselves are only 17 and 18 so don't know where you're getting 20+ from.

I don't blame people for skipping or skimming chapters, especially Bran or Sansa's.
I do, both of them had slow points but I think readers overstate it, to some extent due to the awesomeness of other chapters. But both had high points in the last book, so he picked a pretty awful time to start skipping them.

People have shitty attention spans, or are so dumb that reading at 6th grade level is so hard that they have to take shortcuts.

True. TV Sansa is 18, but looks older. Selective attending to minutia is effective. The point remains that TV Sansa is sufficiently acted; however, the actor is portraying a character well below her chronological age, naturally written for someone younger, and it seems off.

And this is exactly why I'm skipping the previews from now on.
I went way more into detail, all you did was go look at episode names.

Skipping chapters is fucking retarded. Doesn't matter how boring a character is, in this series a single sentence can flip shit on its head.
