10 Stupidest Game Of Thrones Moments

4. Littlefinger Pushes Lysa Out The Moon Door

For every character the showrunners have adapted well, there are several more they have severely butchered, and Littlefinger was amongst the worst.

Not only was Aidan Gillen’s ‘patriarchal’ voice distracting with his accent constantly shifting from English to Irish, but he was inadvertently written as an idiot.

Sure, in the first three seasons he was largely handled well, but from season four onwards he became an aimless waste-of-time who seemed to constantly be improvising in his unclear plan to win the Iron Throne.

Nowhere was this more apparent than when he pushed his wife – Lysa Arryn – out the Moon Door.

Marrying and killing her to take control of the Vale was smart, but the way he did it in the open without thinking of the consequences was moronic and it resulted in him being out of control of his own fate and at the mercy of Sansa.

Moreover, the image of Lysa falling to her death was just silly, and the only way it could have been made more stupid was if someone appropriately added the ‘aaah hoo hoo hoey’ yell of Goofy.

Then again, at least that would have been funny for the right reasons…
