That's what I wanted to ask.you kidding?
Still he was eerily realistic. Compared to some villains in some other universes who've been made so "many-dimensional" they become a huge stretch.Joffrey just was 0dimensional in my view. I haven't read any of the books though.
My favorite hated example being the Governor in TWD.
Also, read the damn books! Or do you seriously think this is the one and only case in history where the show surpasses the source literature?
