Nah, there are plenty of people who read all the books (including myself) who still enjoy the television series and are okay with most of the decisions D&D have made, with few exceptions.

I think everyone agrees that the Dorne story was cringeworthy.
There were also plenty of things D&D did that I was impressed with how well they adapted (like the Red Wedding, Shame) and things they changed that actually improved the story (like Hardhome, taking out Aegon).
I think D&D are in a difficult position, because they are forced to appeal to the casual viewer and adapt the books to be effective in a dramatic format. Maybe I'm in the minority, but I like to cut them some slack.
