Now let's talk about the awful decision to replace Jeyne Westerling with fucking Talisa.

I mean.... I'm ultimately fine with it. But I don't get it. It seems.... unnecessary.

I think with their budget and time constraints, they didn’t want to go through the narrative of Robb going through the Westerlands, sustaining an injury that lays him up at the Westerlings creating the relationship between him and Jeyne. I mean, they never even showed the battles back then besides Blackwater Bay.

That makes sense.

But the show still could have made her Jeyne. No?

Sure, but making her from Volantis allows people to be xenophobic about his decision

In the same vein, though, if she was from the Westerlands, they could have believed she was a Lannister spy.

Which would have been cool.

I'm sorry, we were looking for, "I read it in a book."
