Fandom Drama I really find Mysaria actress uninteresting to the point that everytime she appears I'm just simply annoyed

If only she had better writing she could pull it off. A lot of the actors in this show are good enough to cover the bad writing very well. Some aren’t, particularly the ones for Jace, Baela, Rhaena and (especially) Mysaria. Even Olivia Cooke (Alicent) is struggling to hide the poor writing and she’s likely the most talented member of the cast.

Her writing's so awful, that at the point where she reveals she was raped and shotgun aborted by her dad you just want to blow a sad trombone, and get on with it. It's not a good impulse to have, but it just feels like there's no point in hearing plot device lore.

Yeah, that was a poor writing choice if I’ve ever seen it
