The book Wall and Dorne stuff will probably be in the final episode.
The Riverlands stuff and Greyjoy stuff were cut for this season, however the latter will be in Season 6 and the other may or may not be in it.

I hope so. Victarion Greyjoy is one of my favorite characters in the books, just from a straight bad-*** standpoint. Done right, he could be a great addition to the show.
Some of my favorites seem to be getting short shrift on the show. Davos, Doran Martell, Wyman Manderly. And Stannis is completely ruined.:sad:
Don't know about Vic. The casting call was for “an infamous pirate who has terrorized seas all around the world" and has a "touch of madness". Sounds like Euron to me.
Patchface's songs are supposedly visions of the coming conflict. I read them, but can't get that much out of them.
It's probably a combination of both. If you are not going to do the Kingsmoot, etc. you could easily just have one brother to Balon.
This is the point we can look back to and say, "That's when Stannis lost the war." Just like when Reek sided with his jack *** father over the Starks who cared about him. That's when Theon screwed the pooch.
I can't believe Stannis' army stood by him for that.

His army is supposed to be made up of fanatical devotees to the Red God. They burned anyone who disagreed back in Dragonstone. Of course, in the show, he has sell swords. So, maybe some would have dispersed after seeing him burn his own daughter at the stake.
The books are amazing. Martin is one of the few writers who I actually enjoy reading his food descriptions!

In the show he was sent out to see in a row boat and hasn't been seen since. Davos' saved his life, and that is why he sent him away before he burnt Shireen which was ill done IMO.
In the books he is working for the Brotherhood without banners as a Smith.
I am thinking that Sansa may either escape and find Stannis, or when Stannis gets there she becomes a very important chip for him to play. He could broker a marriage deal with the Vale or another House for the seat of Warden of the North/Lord of Winterfell. Of course, no way of knowing as it is so far from the books.
I just find Sansa and Dany chapters in the first two books insufferable (and I am even female).
Agreed - They have a huge juices dripping down their faces problem in Westeros
