Prob hard to keep the actor who plays Theon around if they don't at lease inject him somewhere into season 3-4(book 3) some how. They did say that things would be more linear in the show vs how it jumps around in the books.
They also changed Sansa story so that LF comes to her instead of Dontos Hollard.

sometimes part of me thinks that HBO thinks the viewers are to dumb to figure out all the stuff that the readers have to figure out. even though that directly contradicts my theory as to why they cut out Neds dreams, and the actual images Dany sees in the tower of the undying :P

always remember GRRM has creative control. any changes to the show were approved by GRRM.

That's not true. GRRM is only a "co-executive producer." He basically has courtesy "creative input" and has written an episode each season, but HBO owns the television rights and has ultimate creative control.

I think they did this because in a visual setting it would be too easy to give away future plot points. When reading about it, it is much easier to hide things like this.

in his contract, it explicitly states he can veto any changes he feels will change the story, and has said so in more than one interview.

so while it may not be the exact definition of "creative control", he definitely has creative final say.

nothing nerdier than a posting in a thread about a fantasy TV show on forums used in line with a 14 year old fantasy role playing game......

Nerd level +1

Any chance you can link to an interview of him saying that? I'd like to read/watch it. Everything I have seen, read, or heard is that he signed over all creative control. I even remember an interview where he said he signed it all over for a truckload of money and they could add vampires and zombies if they wanted to.
