Mostly because they've made so many mistakes already. These are writers that clearly weren't cut out to handle the material they were given. I'm not trying to oversell the books, but that scene with Grey Worm and dany's handmaiden chick were just shameful. That was some corny bullshit. Season 1 was relatively tight in execution but 2 was a quick downgrade. I'm thinking maybe they received too much praise too soon so they've been playing fast and loose.
