Not really. I mean, in bookSpoiler:he prevents burning anyone during the siege, except for the cannibals; he tells one of his men that, if he were to die in the siege, to stop at nothing to put Shireen on the throne.

Hezdar comes off as a much more sympathetic figure in the tv show while they turned Stannis into a monster.Try http://wordforge.net/index.php for discussion and debate.

My thoughts after this week's episode.
-There's nothing like burning a child to lift morale. Someone has to be thinking, man I wish Renly was still here instead of Stannis. He has the biggest sense of entitlement in all of the seven kingdoms "It's mine by rights."
-For a moment I thought there was going to an Arya rape scene. Also can anyone please clarify this, when someone takes a drink from the fountain in the house of black and white, either they die or the faceless men/women kill the target and the drinker lives?
-Doran Martell is one of the wisest, most compassionate rulers in Westeros. He seems to have the political instincts of Tywin Lannister or Littlefinger, without the their utter ruthlessness and ambition. He seems to have the mercy of Renly without the pomp.
-As he's been doing since he lost his hand, Jaime is coming off as a compassionate and complex character.
-Meereen is finally interesting! My favorite line of the episode was when Tyrion told Hezdar that his father would have liked him. I can't believe any of the Sons of the Harpy stuck around to fight once Drogon arrived. Plus if this didn't break them, and they have large numbers left then I guess its time to listen to Daario and take out all of the masters.

More that it is completely out of character for Stannis. It hasn't been in the books YET, but it is something many figured would be in the next one, without Stannis' involvement."My nation is the world, and my religion is to do good." --Thomas Paine

He is a religious fanatic who had his own relative killed by dark magic before.

His relative who was his challenger for a throne? Dying on the battlefield is no different than dying by a shadow.“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”
- John 13:34-35 (NRSV)

He did have Renly killed but only after Renly usurped what was rightly Stannis's and only after twice reaching out and trying to get him to change. Stannis considered burning one of Robert's bastards but decided the boy had not done him any harm unlike Renly plus in the books Stannis is super protective of his daughter.
Anyway, in the books none of Stannis's family nor Mel is with his Army, they are at Castle Black, so there would not be any burnings in any event.Try http://wordforge.net/index.php for discussion and debate.
