It’s noteworthy in itself that this teenage boy managed to deliver a performance that made him one the most hated TV characters of all time. I felt it, and it was more than once that I wished Joffrey would die a violent death.

He presented the very worst result of what happens when a spoiled, evil child is given immeasurable power. Joffrey took the throne at King’s Landing, and reigned over the kingdom while exploring his most evil and destructive thoughts. He treated everyone around him like slaves and trash, and treated his family and wife exactly the same. He was an evil little boy, and this side was always apparent and right in your face, as he never tried to conceal how dark he really was. He eventually died that horrible death we all hoped he would, but did a whole lot of damage before kicking the bucket.

I like to think of myself as a world traveler and social butterfly, although I do spend a lot of my time watching the latest Japanese anime series, sitcoms, movies, and drama series. I live on the island of Crete, where I was born, and enjoy walking on the beach with my little cocker spaniel, Molly, when I'm not writing for WhatCulture.com and UNILAD.co.uk.
