The writing is terrible in episode 4, and the stupid dialogue makes some of the acting seem bad.  Many of the characters have turned into cardboard cutouts that either now turn "good" or "bad" or "smart" or "dumb", with much of the complexity and shades of grey withering away.

We can now even more appreciate how good of a writer George is, with kudos to the earlier script writers too.

Jon is now a moron ****-chaser, Dany went from caring queen to despot, Sansa betrayed Jon within 5 seconds after learning "the secret" and has gone from dumb girl to smartest tactician in Westeros, Brianne went from stoic badass to weeping loser, Tyrion went from master strategist to total screw-up within a season or 2.

Characters need to evolve.

The appeal of the show is that characters have an arch. Hound and Jamie are good guys now. Dany is seemingly a bad guy. Tyrion still has a soft spot for his sister and vice versa.

They're condensing stuff way too much now.
