* MisBlamed: After the events of \\\"Dance of Dragons\\\", many fans were quick to blame the showrunners for [[spoiler:Shireen\\\'s]] death, believing it was another series original plot point. However, in behind the scenes interviews, it was revealed that it was GRRM himself who told them that [[spoiler:Shireen]] would die.

MisBlamed as a trope is iffy to apply in this context. One, the show is streamlining and rapidly adapting through very dense material. Two, the show is relying on unpublished material that the author has himself not revealed to the audience and choosing to put it in the season and then outright spoiling it on promotional videos.

So in either case, the showrunners still bear responsibility for putting the scene at the end of the season when in the books at that point Stannis was in a different place from Shireen altogether. Unless and until GRRM comes forth and spoils his own plotline and says that the show\\\'s decision was on him, only then can the producers be considered MisBlamed.
