As it turned out, if you'd listed them in the order of most boring descending to least boring, those two would have been near the top. I think we can do without characters whose only role can be summed up as "be really, really loyal. And humourless".
    In the books Ser Barristan serves a good role of relating to Denarys her family history plus he is a point of view character so lots of his thoughts are known to readers (and they do indeed advance the plotline) but it is hard to do that in tv.

        That is not a character. That is exposition.

          Oerdin is trying not to spoil stuff (which I admit deserves commendation since he does it so rarely).

              Stannis totally belongs on the interwebs .

              (I still wish he was as awesome as he was in the books, but the show people seemingly aren't fond of Stannis )

                Many of the book people think Stannis is the man and over at Westeros.org people call him Mannis.

                  This season has done a much better job of fleshing him out and making him likable.

                  Which, honestly, just can't mean good things for the future.

                      I mostly root for Jon Snow especially if it involves warging into a dragon and/or getting to borlne Auntie Dany.

                            I get why spell check changed warging into warning but I don't understand why it changed bone into born.

If they dick up the (so far, excellent) Arya arc with that tired old tripe I will be sorely vexed.
                              I was incredibly bored of the several season long meandering road trip of Arya & the Hound. If we had a season of her sweeping floors at least it'd be something different.

                                The internet has predictably exploded over Sansa's rape scene.
