10 Abandoned Game Of Thrones Plot Threads We Really Miss

4. The Freys

Game Of Thrones Brotherhood
HBO

Speaking of the Freys, what exactly is going on with them? The Red Wedding was probably the most iconic moment in the entire show so far, and the master plan of revenge was in part orchestrated by the Freys. In the aftermath of the wedding, they were the ultimate bad guys that we all immediately hated and were rooting against, ready to see Arya make it to the Twins and cut Walder Frey wide open.

And then they all kind of faded into the background. In terms of people we root against, the focus has been all on the Boltons lately, but can we at least see what the Freys are up to? 

They're the family that essentially put an end to the Starks and to Robb's quest for the throne. Shouldn't they be more prominent villains than they are? The only Frey we've really seen lately is Walda Frey, who Roose Bolton married, but as for Walder Frey himself, we haven't seen him at all since Season 3.
