How far-fetched do you guys think this is?

It's something I've considered as a possibility but never too seriously, not nearly as much as Jon Snow anyway.

Martin has planted clues. Whether that was to "entertain" us or there's something to it, we'll have to wait. Based on trailer, the show could be getting into this.

ive heard this before, its just hard for me to subscribe to. Tyrion has two different color'd eyes, neither are purple like Targs. Tyrion doesnt have the platinum hair either. also, i think Tywin would have killed Tyrion if he thought it was the mad kings bastard rape baby. i just can't see Tywin swallowing his family pride to raise Tyrion as his own.

that said, its very possible. i dont remember the exact details, but i know the timelines match up for the mad king and johanna being in the same place.

Yeah...only way that subplot for Tyrion would make sense (under the watchful eye of Tywin) would be if someone, a midwife/nanny dyed his hair his entire life from birth, and the readers were given the explanation that the genes just weren't strong with him because he was a dwarf.

But then Tyrion would have full knowledge/suspicion that he was a bastard, but could have possibly lived the lie that maybe "the genes just weren't strong with him". IDK. The Tyrion character already deems himself a bastard of sorts, I doubt the above scenario would have changed his chapters in the books very much at all and could have worked.

Just bullshitting about what it would take to make the tinfoil Tyrion bastard plot believable in GRRM's world. Tywin is just too controlling and slick to have a bastard in his midst and grant it titles.

Jon doesn't have purple eyes or light hair either but I'm fully convinced he's a Targaryen.

It's also possible Tywin either didn't know Tyrion wasn't his or because of whatever reason that hasn't yet been revealed he was forced to live with it.

Or it's not true and is just a theory. Who knows.

It's also possible Tyrion is a Targaryen on the show but not in the books.

You just made my brain hurt. I can not imagine the magnitude of fan reaction if the show treated Tyrion's parentage different from books. It would be the doom all over again.

Fans are already unhappy with how different the show is from the books, and if season 6 follows the pattern it will only vaguely resemble the books.

theres only really a couple things that i think readers are really pissed about (ie: see everything about the dornish storyline/plot.

Doran Martel is extremely similar to Tywin in the books, in the show i have no idea what they are doing with Dorne. essentially the show is just trying to give you the meat and potatoes of the story. no sides of rice or veggies, no dessert, nada.

but sadly you are right, every season seems to stray further and further from the books. however that doesnt piss me off. it just means the show isn't going to spoil a ton of things that i actually care about from the books [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Season 6 Episode 1 stills leaked.

Rumor has it that the episode itself has leaked too. Anyone got a link?

Was unable to get a confirm, earliest "leak" I saw was 10+ days ago...seemed suspicious so I didn't download.

If you haven't watched Preston's Season 5 Watch series, hell wrong wichu?

But I bring it up here because, if you haven't seen it or haven't seen it in a while, Preston's takedown of DnD at the 8:25 mark is just exquisite:

Should be in a museum somewhere.
