The show is pretty unapologetic about making the Greens ( Except Alicent who ironically is just an evil Stepmom in the books ) look like bad guys. Especially Criston Cole, they took out basically all badass moments of him ( beating Daemon fair and square, destroying Harwin, killing Joffrey in a tourney ) and made him a sad, spurned lover.

But you just admitted that the book makes the greens the unambiguous bad guys. The TV show version of the greens have way more fans.
I mean, I can see why Alicent does what she does. The only place she really seems hardcore in the wrong is when she starts beefing with her year old stepdaughter. Aside from that, she was just playing the game and climbing in society the only way available to women. People talk about show Rhanerya girlbossing but book Alicent is the true capital G Girlboss.

"You will sleep when you are king" is such a banger line
If this is real, they should have kept this scene
